Selecting Metering system for your Mobile Fuel Dispensing Unit
Accurate flow metering system is the heart of fuel trucks used in doorstep diesel delivery and is the most important differentiator for building a successful business model. The importance of above statement is in the fact that for a typical diesel browser dispensing on an average 10 KL per day, a basic flow measurement system with under-reading error of 0.5% can amount to huge losses which can be to the tune of approx 3KL liter of diesel in a single month which essentially means a lot of money, and you can run the numbers on yearly basis based on fuel cost in your area. So, choosing an accurate diesel flow meter system for your Browser must be done with careful assessment and basic understanding of important elements involved to back the data for ROI calculations. For sustenance of any business model, superiority of product and services is bare minimum for building trust with end customers and thus, it is imperative that while delivering fuel repeated accurate deliveries are ensured to have a win-win with your end customers and also remaining safe by being on the right side of regulations. Best metering systems should minimum consist of robust and really accurate custody transfer flow meter, dual channel pulses meeting Security Level A of the API standards, Strainer and Air Eliminator at the upstream of flow meter, Rugged & highly accurate electronic register, Preset valve & Ticket Printer.
