Bangkok, Thailand – August 24, 2010 – AKCP Inc., announces the launch of the new ropeFuel Sensor. This new sensor features a customizable length rope that will detect various fuel types when they make contact at any location along its entire length. Ideal for lying in areas close to generator fuel tanks, fuel storage areas, or fuel transfer stations, for example, where leaking fuel could have catastrophic consequences. This sensor unit will be vital to any business that is concerned with disaster prevention plans. This sensing rope detects the presence of liquid hydrocarbon fuels like Gasoline, Diesel fuel, Jet fuel or Xylene, at any point along its length.

New ropeFuel Sensor

• Detects the specific location of fuel if it comes into contact with any section of the rope.
• Customizable length with numerous specific ‘sensing’ locations at one meter or one foot intervals.
• Up to 165 feet of location sensing on a single rope are possible.
• Connects to AKCP securityProbe and sensorProbe RJ-45 sensor ports.
• Both units will auto-detect the presence of the ropeFuel Sensor.
• Sensor module LED will activate when liquid is detected by the sensor.
• Sensor will report a critical status if the cable breaks, is cut, or unplugged.

The ropeFuel Sensor can be plugged into the AKCP sensorProbe or securityProbe 5E intelligent sensor ports enabling the unit to measure fuel leaks in a specific location along the sensor rope. This can be used to trigger alerts like e-mail, SMS, phone calls and SNMP traps. The sensor has its own SNMP OID so that the data can be collected over the network using any Network Management System. The AKCP ropeFuel Sensor comes fully assembled and includes the fuel sensing rope, the non-sensing area cable and the main sensing module. The sensing module is then connected to the base unit (sensorProbe or securityProbe 5E) using the standard CAT5 LAN cable.

For more detailed information take a look at the datasheet. The new ropeFuel Sensor can be ordered directly from AKCP or from any one of our many dealers located around the world.

The securityProbe adds a Modbus to SNMP gateway which can be easily integrated in any SCADA system. Using the recently introduced virtual sensor port feature, the securityProbe supports Modbus RTU, Modbus over TCP/IP. Any virtual sensor can be combined with AKCP’s wide choice of notifications like: SNMP traps, e-mail, SMS, MMS, windows alerts, voice calls, Skype calls, etc. In addition the securityProbe can control relays based on collected sensor values from a large number of physical sensors or up to 60 dry contacts. All Modbus configuration can be done through the easy to use embedded web interface of the securityProbe.

With this new feature AKCP has created a unique SCADA management system independent of the bus protocol used. This enables distributed control engineers to easily link up industrial network devices with existing LAN infrastructure and SNMP alerts.

The Modbus to SNMP gateway expands on the wide range of Modbus features such as the securityProbe’s ability to act as a RS485 master device polling one or more slave devices or as a slave allowing other Modbus devices to read sensor data.

Additional fieldbus protocol support for Profibus, LonWorks, etc. are available on request with very short implementation times, using AKCP custom engineering services
