    Abstract: Multiply redundant safety system(s) that protects humans and assets while fueling vehicles, and/or transferring /fueling/tank exchanging of on road/off road, marine, aircraft, spacecraft, rockets, and all other vehicles/vessels utilizing Compressed and/or Liquefied Gas Fuels/compound(s), utilizing Hydrogen and/or Natural Gas Chemical Family of Natural Gas/Propane/Butane/ethane/ammonia/and/or any/all compound(s)/mixtures along with and/or without, oxidizer(s), such as Liquefied Oxygen, Oxygen Triplet (03)/ozone/hydrogen peroxide/peroxide/solid oxidizer(s). One or more processors in combination with one or more system(s)/one or more sensor(s) in combination with one or more micro switches/one or more outputs/ actuator(s) which combine to detect any leaks/fire(s)/explosion/voltage(s)/hazards/vehicle position/ motion/vessel motion(s)/reusable tank/exchange tank/position(s)/arc’s, spark(s)/and/or other hazards for rapid mitigation by locking out/stopping fueling/gas transfers/vehicle releasing/transfer line releasing. For different levels of safety, multiple combination(s) of various sensor(s)/ detector(s)/ input(s)/output(s)/ device(s)/system(s)/ action(s)/actuators, all may be standing alone and/or in any combination can be utilized.

    Abstract: A multiply-redundant system that prevents a driver from starting and/or moving a vehicle if a compressed natural gas fill system is not correctly and completely disconnected from the vehicle. One or more sensors in combination with one or more optional microswitches combine to lock-out the vehicle's ignition or otherwise prevent it from starting and/or moving. For different levels of safety, different combinations of sensors can be used with the lowest level having a single proximity sensor sensing the presence or absence of a high-pressure fill hose. The highest level of safety being achieved by having separate proximity sensors on the fuel fill hose fitting, the gas cap cover and a manual safety valve along with a redundant microswitch. An optional override that may be restricted as to the number of times it can be used can allow starting with a faulty sensor in order to allow maintenance.
