Remote Monitoring of Fuel Consumption

DTS 12 is an innovative Diesel Tracking System that monitors actual fuel consumption

IPF-MAY12-4-1.jpgThe market demand for effective fuel management derives from the requirement of generator operators to control and monitor fuel usage by generators. Fuel theft and unauthorised use can cause significant financial losses. More careful monitoring of fuel useage and generator performance also helps in detecting mechanical and operational problems in the generator thereby improving efficient fuel use.

In response to these market demands, Protech has introduced DTS-12 (Diesel Tracking System), an innovative product that use wireless GSM technology which enables generator operators and owners to monitor and control generator fuel usage and efficiency. The system records the quantity of fuel filled, fuel consumption of the generator, running hours and maintenance schedules.

Whenever the fuel is filled in the generator the system sends an SMS to the programmed mobile phones like the quantity of fuel filled, present level in the tank, quantity consumed from the last fueling, hours run from the last fueling, number of power outages and fuel and running hours totalisers.The user can know the real time fuel level by sending an SMS to the system, it replies with the present fuel level. The following alarms can be set:

  • 1) Maintenance Alarms (10 types/variations), and
  • 2) Fuel Low Alarm
When an alarm occurs, the system sends an SMS. The system consists of a fuel level sensor and a main control unit with a GSM modem. The fuel level sensor continuously monitors the fuel level in the tank with high accuracy.

Optional: The same data is also stored in the system. The data can be downloaded remotely at any location using the mobile phone network through the modem and software provided by the manufacturer. The software generates different reports like fuel consumption per hour, cost per hour, and cost of each unit generated, maintenance schedule, alarms for excess fuel consumption, etc.
