The unique concept enables fuel to be traced accurately from point of delivery to consumption, removing the risk of short delivery by fuel companies. More importantly, the solution eliminates a requirement to work at height, while risks of theft and spillage are also eliminated.
Such traceability accommodates the variables that greatly impact fuel consumption and efficiency, including duration and location of job, type of plant, time of year, weather, and so on. It is estimated that these factors can impact fuel consumption by 30%.
T&M will manufacture 30, 10,000 litre capacity, self-filling bowsers this year, each allowing use of the bowser’s pump and metering system to load itself, removing the need for expensive pumps and meters on storage tanks. The bowser is connected to the tank with a three-inch pipe with a dry brake coupling, removing the risk of spillage.
