Why design a fuel flow meter?

1

Measuring what is dispensed

Showing the flow on an LCD screen helps control the fuel supplied.

2

Attached to the nozzle

The device mounts on the nozzle and is used at the point of supply.

3

Connected data

The electronics and IoT connectivity allow readings to be recorded and sent.

4

A portable machine

A compact, light format makes it easy to take to different sites.
