FUEL MANAGEMENT
RFID - Overview

SCI’s RFID Wireless Fuel Management System allows you to track individual drivers and vehicles, fuel dispensing, odometer readings, and assists in preventive maintenance reports... all with NO human intervention.

SCI’s advanced vehicle identification unit:

• Eliminates the unauthorized dispensing of fuel.
• Limits the amount of dispensed fuel per vehicle and driver.
• Require no power
• It’s easy to install
• Self destruct mechanism with any tampering attempt

The advanced RFID system is easy to install and requires no excavation. SCI's RF Technology eliminates the need for vulnerable underground cables and wiring, which reduces installation time by 80%. The system installation by your on-site technicians or ours. RFID is the fleet and fuel management tool for the business that is serious about cutting costs, eliminating fraud, effectively managing fuel reports and consumption.

The RFID Fuel Pump Control Unit controls each pump hose independently. It collects the vehicle data from the Vehicle Identification Unit via the Hose Control Unit. Communication between the RF Fuel Pump Control Unit and the Fuel Management Computer occurs at the completion of each transaction. The vehicle and operation authorization lists can be updated from the Fuel Management Computer to the Pump Control Unit utilizing the radio frequency network.

The Fuel Shield Pump Control Unit is designed in a manner that allows replacement with a new Unit in thirty minutes or less. It is designed in such a way that in the event of a failure, the operator can fully recover and extract stored fuel transactions without the need to ship the RF Fuel Pump Control Unit to the manufacturer.

Vehicle Identification Unit
The Vehicle Identification Unit is a device that is installed on each authorized vehicle, and has a pre-programmed chip with a unique ID number, eliminating the need for a costly programming unit. Whenever the fuel hose is inserted into the vehicle, the Hose Control Unit transmits the vehicle ID to the the Pump Control Unit via wireless communication to obtain authorization before allowing fuel to be dispensed.

Hose Control Unit
The Hose Control Unit is a compact device built to withstand any environmental condition common to petroleum handling equipment. It is designed for direct attachment to the hose nozzle in a manner that will not interfere with the dispensing of fuel. The Hose Control Unit is installed on each B individual pump and detects the insertion of the fuel nozzle into the fuel inlet of a vehicle equipped with a Vehicle Identification Unit. The removal of the nozzle from the vehicle: fuel inlet immediately terminates fuel flow.
