VR-10 Gasoline Pump Computer

The VR-10 provides the durability and reliability expected from mechanical computers at posted prices up to $10.00 per gallon. Exceptionally versatile, it can be equipped with various options such as pulse generators and electric reset for self-serve operations. A factory installed "Quick Change" gearbox can be ordered for fast conversion to the metric system.

The VR-10 Mechanical Gasoline Pump Computer provides transaction capability at prices up to $10.00-per-gal Ion and total sale capacity up to $1,000.00. An exclusive right-hand money wheel with an injection molded acetal resin clutch gear and gold resources provides $1.00 per revolution. The new resources are large, easy-to-read figures in the configuration: 00, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 with graduation marks at 0, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8-cents. These resources are permanently surface printed onto the wheel, providing accurate and repeatable positioning. An adjustable pointer permits convenient conversion of the display from 2-cent to 5-cent intervals.

The clutch used in both the right-hand money and quantity wheels has high resolution (300 serrations) and a knife edge drive pawl that extends to the outer surface of the clutch serrations. The result is a more precise and repeatable positioning of the wheels at the zero point during reset. Gear reduction to the right-hand money wheel is accomplished with a unique worm gear drive resulting in improved wheel stability and minimizes the effect of money wheel speed on the overall gear system. A significant reduction in the speed of the right-hand money wheel has been accomplished, offering even greater operational life characteristics.

The $1.00 right-hand money wheel with 2 or 5 cent graduation marks requires compatible pulser and self-service equipment.

The VR-10 accepts Series 7874 Pulser/Totalizer and barrier circuit retrofits kits. The VR-10 is compatible with all V-R and competitive electric resets. When equipped with pulser and electric reset, these computers provide the total capability needed to interface with equipment for remote authorizing in self-service, data transmitting, inventory control and information collection systems.
