Abstract: A crossover protection system including a product transport vehicle having a tank compartment for containing a liquid product, a fluid property sensor positioned to contact liquid product stored in the tank compartment, a system controller, and a valve coupled to the tank compartment. The valve regulates a flow of liquid product from the tank compartment and has a normally locked state. The system controller may compare a received transported liquid type signal from the fuel property sensor indicative of the type of liquid product in the tank compartment and compare the type of liquid product to a stored liquid product type. If the two types match, the crossover protection controller transitions the valve to an unlocked state to allow the liquid product to unload from the tank compartment. If the two types do not match, the crossover protection controller will disable the valve from transitioning to the unlocked state.

Abstract: A wireless system for monitoring and control of the temperature of a product in transport includes a controller system wirelessly connected to a temperature system and a valve control system. The temperature system measures the current temperature of the product and wirelessly transmits the temperature information to the controller system. The valve control system controls the position of a valve allowing heated fluid to move through the product, heating the product. The controller system allows an operator to input a high temperature limit and low temperature limit and alarm, and using the current temperature of the product, wirelessly signals the valve control system to open or close the valve in order to keep the temperature of the product between the high temperature limit and low temperature limit. The controller system monitors and records the product temperature, high and low temperature limits and alarms, and provides a report of the data.
