US Patent:

20070295085, Dec 27, 2007

Filed:

Aug 21, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/842695

Inventors:

Vitaliy Demin - Saco ME, US

Assignee:

Franklin Fueling Systems Inc. - Madison WI

International Classification:

G01N 9/18

US Classification:

073447000

Abstract:

A liquid level and density measurement device is disclosed. The device comprises an elongated magnetostrictive transducer and at least two transducer magnets embedded into floats that can freely move along a transducer. One float is relatively more sensitive to liquid density variation than the other float. The less sensitive float is used for liquid level measurement and the more sensitive float is used for liquid density measurement. The liquid density float has a lower part completely immersed into a liquid and an upper part partially immersed into a liquid. The upper part is made substantially in the form of a hollow cylinder with an internal diameter larger than the external diameter of the liquid level float. Therefore the liquid density float can move up and down without touching the liquid level float.

Assignee:

FRANKLIN FUELING SYSTEMS, INC. - Madison WI

International Classification:

G05B 11/01

US Classification:

34031011

Abstract:

A system, apparatus, and method for communicating sensor information of a system component that is disposed in a hazardous location to a system controller including using an advanced hazardous location monitor/controller apparatus (data concentrator) along with power line communications to communicate diagnostic information obtained from a sensor located in a hazardous area to a central monitor/controller located in a non-hazardous area so that in-station diagnostics can be performed.

International Classification:

B67D 7/32

US Classification:

222 1, 222 23

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to a fuel delivery system and method for preventing and detecting phase separation in fuel storage tanks. Before phase separation occurs, the fuel delivery system may automatically warn a gas station operator to take preventative action. After phase separation occurs, the fuel delivery system may automatically shut down and warn the gas station operator to take corrective action.

International Classification:

G08B 21/00
G01R 31/327

US Classification:

340638, 324424

Abstract:

A circuit breaker monitoring system may monitor both at least one gas characteristic of a gas surrounding the circuit breaker and at least one fault arc energy characteristic. The monitored characteristics may be used to forecast maintenance events. The monitored characteristics may be used to control the operation of the circuit breaker.

G07F 13/02
G07F 13/06

Abstract:

A fuel station controller to dispense fuel and drinks, a fuel station including the fuel station controller, and a product management subsystem including sensors communicatively coupled with the fuel station controller. The controller includes a housing comprising product modules having connectors adapted to connect conductors from an ingestible product dispenser, wherein the controller is communicatively coupled with the product modules and comprises processing instructions operable to receive a value indicative of a quantity of an ingestible product in a box to be dispensed by the ingestible product dispenser and to generate an empty box alert if the value is below an empty box setpoint.
