Task
A wide variety of gasoline and other fuels must be dispensed into vehicle tanks with precise metering using a flow meter. The system is used in a potentially explosive atmosphere. At the same time, emissions must be prevented and changing media must be handled safely.
Requirements
- Explosion-proof conveyance of flammable media
- Precise dosing via flow meters
- Low-emission filling
- Quick media changeover without carryover
Solution in Detail
A F 430 Ex S drum pump with a mechanical seal is combined with an F 460 Ex collector motor, an FMC 100 Ex flow meter, and FLUXTRONIC® evaluation electronics. The system enables precise volume measurement and safe operation with highly flammable fuels.
