摘要: In one aspect, first data characterizing an attribute of a fuel dispenser user interacting with a fuel dispenser can be received. A first product that is associated with the fuel dispenser user can be determined based on the received first data. Second data characterizing a first location at a fueling station can be received. Third data that characterizes whether the first product is stored at the first location can be determined based on the determined first product and the received second data. A first command can be determined based on the determined third data. The command can be transmitted. Related apparatus, systems, methods, techniques, and articles are also described.

摘要: A method for calibrating a filling system is disclosed. In a first calibration step, a calibration of a calibration variable of a first flow or level measuring device is performed at a first calibration point. In a first deviation determination step, the first control and evaluation unit of the measuring device determines an average deviation of the calibration variable from a desired value. In a first correction step, the first control and evaluation unit corrects a calibration parameter taking into account the determined deviation. In a first transmission step, the first control and evaluation unit transmits the determined deviation and/or the corrected calibration parameter to the second control and evaluation unit. In a first adaptation step, the second control and evaluation unit corrects a calibration parameter at a first calibration point, taking into account the deviation transmitted by the first control and evaluation unit or the transmitted calibration parameter.

摘要: In one aspect, fuel inventory data characterizing a level of fuel stored at a fuel storage facility can be received from a sensor in operable communication with the fuel storage facility. Flow meter data characterizing an amount of fuel dispensed from the fuel storage facility by a fuel dispenser nozzle can be received from a flow meter in fluid communication with the fuel dispenser nozzle and the fuel storage facility. Fuel transaction data characterizing the dispensing of fuel by the fuel dispenser nozzle and the dispensing of the fuel by one or more additional fuel dispenser nozzles in fluid communication with the fuel storage facility can be received. An estimate of meter drift characterizing a change in calibration of the flow meter can be determined based on the fuel inventory data, the flow meter data, and the fuel transaction data. The estimate of meter drift can be provided.

摘要: A method can include obtaining a first weight measurement of a receptacle and obtaining a second weight measurement of the receptacle. The method can further include calculating a first difference between the first weight measurement and the second weight measurement, resulting in a reference dispensation value. The method can further include obtaining dispensation data, the dispensation data including a measured dispensation value. The measured dispensation value can correspond to a quantity of a substance dispensed from the receptacle, the quantity of the substance passing through a dispensation monitor coupled to the receptacle. The method can further include calculating a second difference between the reference dispensation value and the measured dispensation value. The method can further include determining that the second difference exceeds a threshold and adjusting the dispensation monitor in response to determining that the second difference exceeds the threshold.

摘要: A fluid delivery system or method for the same may include features or steps for dispensing, via a nozzle, a first fluid from a first fluid storage tank of at least two fluid storage tanks. The fluid storage tanks may be separately fluidly coupled to a manifold via respective fluid supply lines. A fluid delivery line fluidly may couple the nozzle to the manifold. A residual first fluid may remain within the delivery line after the dispensing step. The system or method may further include features or steps for connecting the nozzle to a clearance tank. A clearance outlet line may fluidly couple the clearance tank to the manifold. The system or method may further include features or steps for purging the residual first fluid from the fluid delivery line into the clearance tank and delivering the residual first fluid from the clearance tank to the first fluid storage tank.

摘要: The invention relates to a method for monitoring a container treatment installation which has a filling apparatus for filling containers and a closure apparatus for closing containers. The method involves filling a container with a filling material using the filling apparatus and measuring a concentration of a gas in the filling material of the filled container using a measuring device, wherein the filled container is removed in order to measure the concentration upstream of the closure apparatus or the concentration is measured upstream of the closure apparatus. Advantageously, the method allows the low-oxygen filling by the filling apparatus to be able to be monitored in a selective manner.

摘要: A method for training a worker to delivery heating oil to homes and commercial establishments, comprises having the worker drive a first truck rated at no more than 10,000 pounds gross vehicle weight, the truck carrying as cargo a portable assembly comprising a less than 119 gallon capacity heating oil tank, an up to 29 gallons per minute pump, and a meter sub-system. The Preferably, the portable apparatus with an oil-filled tank weighs less than 1,500 pounds. By using the first truck, the worker becomes better situated to seek the license and other qualifications needed to drive a conventional heating oil tank second truck that typically carries 2,000 or more gallons of heating oil, to deliver heating oil to customers.

摘要: Methods are devices are provided for preventing fracture of a fluid-filled chamber or tank. In general an anti-fracture expansion device can be disposed internally within a fluid-filled chamber such that during a freeze event displaced fluid can compress or flow into the anti-fracture expansion device, thereby reducing the likelihood that the chamber will rupture. The internal disposition of the expansion device prevents it from interfering with other components that may be connected to or adjacent to the fluid chamber, thereby conserving space. In certain embodiments, the expansion device can have a dual function wherein it can act as a flow control valve in addition to functioning as an anti-fracture expansion device.
