HOW TECHNOTON PREVENT FUEL THEFT

Problem

Stolen commercial fuel

Every fleet faces fuel theft. But for large fleets with big number of vehicles and employees who have access to fuel, this problem is especially urgent.

Most of the time, fuel is stolen by draining fuel from vehicle’s tank to reservoir or from return fuel line.

High fuel costs
Time for investigation
Inability to plan fuel costs

Consequences

Fuel theft causes direct damage to company, because fleet operation costs are hight. Fuel monitoring system is weak or absent and it allows drivers to manipulate with fuel for their own benefit. Fleet owner loses profit and as a result has less money to further development.

Solution

Fleet owner may not be aware of fuel theft until appropriate instrument for detecting fuel theft has been used. Fuel management system in combination with tracking system can detect potential fuel theft and send report to the fleet dispatcher online. Ability to detect fuel theft can be used to prevent theft and keep fuel costs under control.

WHAT TO DO

Fuel monitoring in tank

DUT-E fuel level sensor is used to measure fuel level in tanks of vehicles or stationary objects such as diesel generators. DUT-E sensor provides accurate information about fuel filling, fuel level reduction and allows to detecte fuel theft, which minimizes manipulations with fuel.

Direct fuel consumption monitoring

DFM fuel flow meter is installed in vehicle’s fuel line to measure fuel consumption and determine engine modes. Fuel consumption measurement excludes the possibility of theft from fuel highway of vehicle and provides accurate data about fuel costs.

Standard data using

CANCrocodile / 1708Crocodile are designed to receive data on vehicle operation from the on-board CAN / J1708 bus. Fuel level information is transmitted by standard sensor. Received data is stored and analyzed by tracking device.
