    摘要: A fuel quality monitoring system and method to automatically and/or continuously monitor quality of fuel dispensed and control the operation of the fuel dispenser. The control system monitors fuel quality to prevent unsafe refuelings when the fuel quality is unacceptable. In one embodiment, a combination of a differential pressure sensor, a water detector, and/or a particle monitor is employed inline the fuel flow path of a fuel dispenser, and in particular an aviation refueling truck, to monitor the quality of the fuel. If fuel quality is at an acceptable level although not ideal, the control system can allow fueling with the generation of reports and alarms. If the fuel quality is unacceptable, fuel flow can be stopped. If the differential pressure across the filter indicates a high degree of debris and/or water retention, the control system can automatically lower the flow rate to reduce the risk of filter breakdown without completely preventing fueling until the filter can be replaced.

    摘要: An apparatus for topping off a fuel tank which is necessary for full tank delivery after false fuel level detection caused by fuel bubbles or splashes. This is made possible by making a spring biased valve sent for a main valve longitudinally movable and providing control means and a mechanism so that despite a trigger being in the actuated position the valve is opened when bubbles or splashes disappear.

    摘要: The present invention provides a fluid flow system and method according to which the fluid is pumped from a source through a conduit while the flow rate of the fluid is sensed and terminated in response to the fluid flow rate falling below a predetermined minimum. After a predetermined time delay the valve is re-opened to allow flow to resume.

    摘要: A liquid dispensing installation includes an air separator, a volume-meter, a main flow valve in a main conduit, and a bypass valve in a conduit which bypasses the main flow valve. The main flow valve and the bypass valve are normally open during liquid dispensing operations, and both valves are closed in response to reduced pressure in the installation or when a given liquid level is reached in the liquid-receiving container. When the valves are closed in response to reduced pressure, both valves or preferably only the bypass valve will reopen when pressure is restored to a given level.

    摘要: A gasoline dispensing system comprising a dispenser and a remote console which are operable in several modes, said dispenser comprising registers, zeroizing means pulsing means, ''''ON-OFF'''' lever and nozzle; said console comprising a transaction counter, zeroizing means, presettable downcount predeterminer, mode selector and actuator. When selector is set to ''''predetermine,'''' presetting of the register and operation of the actuator result in zeroizing the counter and enabling of t8e dispenser so that when the lever is turned on, the dispenser resets and then fuel will flow upon opening the nozzle. The console predeterminer and counter are actuated by the pulsing means. With the selector set to ''''fill-up'''' the operations are the same except that the dispenser is enabled without presetting. Another console control, when set, enables the dispenser to be operated independently of the console. The attendant is provided with means to suspend dispensing at any time.

    摘要: A system and method for calculating the flow rate of a dispensing point or flow capacity of a pump and fuel delivery system and determining if the dispensing point or fuel delivery system has a blockage and/or a performance problem if the calculated dispensing point flow rate is other than expected. The calculated dispensing flow rate is calculated by collecting fuel tank level data points for a dispensing point that fall within start and stop events of the dispensing event. The slope of a fitted line to the fuel tank level data points is used as the indication of the flow rate of the dispensing point. Different mathematical techniques may be used to improve the flow rate calculation to compensate for the minimum resolution of collecting fuel tank level data and the dead time included in the data of a dispensing transaction.

    摘要: A control system for controlling a supply of a predetermined quantity of fluid comprises a pump for supplying a fluid, a motor for driving the pump, a measuring device for measuring a flow quantity of the fluid which is supplied by the pump, a device for presetting before starting a fluid supplying operation a preset value P which is indicative of a desired fluid supplying quantity, and a control device supplied with a measured flow quantity from the measuring device and the preset value P for controlling the application of a current to the motor. The control device comprises a first circuit for applying the current to the motor until the measured flow quantity from the measuring device becomes equal to P-K, where K is a predetermined value greater than an oversupply quantity .DELTA.Q of the fluid which is supplied by the pump after the current to the motor is cut off, and a second circuit for applying the current to the motor m times in terms of minute current applying durations until a total quantity Q of supplied fluid measured by the measuring device becomes approximately equal to the preset value P, where m is an integer, ##EQU1## and q'n is a quantity inclusive of an oversupply quantity measured by the measuring device in each of the minute current applying durations.
