Oil pollution on water surfaces not only poses an environmental and safety risk but also requires the highest sensor technology, especially in explosion-prone areas (ATEX zones). The EXD system from LDI offers a certified solution for precise oil film detection in potentially explosive atmospheres – and it operates around the clock.

Advantages of LDI-ROW-EXD technology
The optical detection system is tailored to the requirements of industrial sectors where oil on water poses an acute risk – for example, in petrochemicals, port facilities, offshore platforms, or tank farms. The ATEX-compliant pressure-resistant enclosure (Ex d) makes the sensor suitable for Zone 1 as well.
The highlights at a glance:
- Reliable oil film detection from 1 micrometer
- Real-time monitoring through continuous data evaluation
- Certified according to ATEX & IECEx for Zone 1
- Low maintenance thanks to optical inline detection
- Robust aluminum housing (marine-grade, IP66) for extreme conditions
Why oil monitoring is crucial in ATEX zones
In potentially explosive areas, an unobserved oil film can not only cause fires or explosions, but can also lead to serious environmental damage. LDI technology detects even the smallest traces - before they become visible. This significantly reduces safety incidents and regulatory risks.
Conclusion: Ex-protected oil film detection at the cutting edge of technology
With LDI EXD technology, operators of systems in hazardous areas can rely on a safe, robust and certified system for oil monitoring. The combination of real-time data, high sensitivity and certified explosion protection makes the system an essential component of modern safety concepts.
📌 Price Tip: The EXD series is competitively priced compared to other ATEX sensor solutions while maintaining high detection accuracy.
⚠️ Attention: An additional protective measure is required for installations in Zone 0.
