Abstract

System for detecting overflow of a fluid in a storage tank (15) comprising an an inlet pipe (14) configured to receive the fluid from a delivery station (11) and in communication with the storage tank (15); an outlet pipe (16) in communication with the storage tank (15) and configured to release vapours and excess fluid rising from the storage tank; and an electric level switch (17) mounted on the outlet pipe (16) and connected to a line (18A), the line (18A) configured to receive vapours and the excess fluid from the outlet pipe and particularly configured for transferring the vapours and excess fluid to a scrubbing reservoir (19A). The electric level switch (17) comprises a central body (34) including a plurality of sensors (34a, 34b) disposed at its centre and is adapted to receive or detect the excess fluid rising in the outlet pipe. The present disclosure further provides a method for detecting overflow of a fluid in a storage tank and the use of the system to perform the method of present disclosure.
