Abstract: A meter (70) coupled in close proximity to an underground storage tank fuel pipe (44) that delivers fuel from the underground storage tank (34) to fuel dispensers in a service station environment. The meter measures the total amount of fuel drawn from the underground storage tank. The meter may be placed in a submersible turbine pump (48) or in the main conduit that carries fuel to the fuel dispensers. The meter measurement is compared to the meter measurements in the individual fuel (32) dispensers that receive the fuel drawn from the underground storage tank to determine if a discrepancy exists. A discrepancy may be indicative of meter tampering, meter calibration issues, and/or a leak in the fuel pipeline between the underground storage tank and the fuel dispensers. A leak detection test may be automatically performed if such discrepancy exists and/or an alarm condition generated and communicated.

Abstract translation: 一个靠近地下储罐燃料管道（44）联接的仪表（70），它将燃料从地下储罐（34）运送到服务站环境中的燃料分配器。 仪表测量从地下储罐抽取的燃油总量。 仪表可以放置在潜水涡轮泵（48）中或在将燃料运送到燃料分配器的主管道中。 将仪表测量与接收从地下储罐抽取的燃料的单独燃料（32）分配器中的仪表测量进行比较，以确定是否存在差异。 差异可能表示仪表篡改，仪表校准问题和/或地下储罐和燃料分配器之间的燃料管道中的泄漏。 如果存在这种差异和/或产生和通信的报警条件，则可以自动执行泄漏检测测试。

Abstract translation: 与地下储罐燃料管（44）非常接近地耦合的仪表（70），其将燃料从地下储罐（34）输送到加油站环境中的燃油加油机。 该仪表测量从地下储罐中抽取的总燃料量。 仪表可以放置在潜水式涡轮泵（48）中或者将燃料运送到燃料分配器的主管道中。 仪表测量结果与单个燃油（32）分配器中的仪表测量值进行比较，分配器接收从地下储罐抽取的燃油，以确定是否存在差异。 不一致可能表明仪表篡改，仪表校准问题和/或地下储罐与燃油加油机之间的燃油管​​道泄漏。 如果存在这种差异和/或产生并传达警报条件，则可以自动执行泄漏检测测试。
