Veeder-Root Offers Real-time Wireless Inventory Management for Fleet Fueling Above-Ground Storage Tank (AST) Applications
SIMSBURY, CT – August 17, 2006 – Veeder-Root announces the availability of the Veeder-Root TLS-RF Wireless System for fleet fueling AST applications. The system provides fleet fueling operators with a cost effective real-time fuel inventory management system, announced Cal Tanck, Global Platform Manager for ATG (Automatic Tank Gauge) Products for Veeder-Root.
The system enables real-time communications between tank gauge components by continuously monitoring the probes that are integral to the system. As such, it can detect deliveries and dispense events and transmit that information in real-time to the console, rather than on a fixed time interval.
“With the high price of fuel, bulk storage facilities can no longer afford to not have accurate inventory of their fuel supply. Now with this system, it’s possible to have real-time wet stock management without prohibitive installation costs.”
“And since the installation time needed for wireless is greatly reduced from having to break concrete, users can be up and running in only a matter of hours rather than days,” said Tanck.
