How to avoid increasing fuel dispenser errors

To avoid increasing errors in the fuel dispenser, the following measures can be taken:

Firstly, strictly implement the national metrological verification regulations

Establish a self testing system: Gas stations should establish a self testing system in accordance with the relevant requirements of the national metrological verification regulations for fuel dispensers, develop a self testing cycle (preferably twice a week), and equip themselves with self calibrating measuring standards that meet the regulatory requirements. Regular self testing of fuel dispensers should be conducted. Once the measurement error of the fuel dispenser exceeds the allowable range, refueling should be stopped immediately and reported to the local legal metrology verification agency for verification.

Pay attention to equipment maintenance and updates: Gas stations should regularly inspect the wear and tear of fuel dispenser equipment, promptly repair damaged equipment, and have legal metrological verification institutions verify repaired fuel dispensers before they can be put into use. At the same time, for fuel dispensers that experience performance degradation due to prolonged use, the equipment should be updated in a timely manner to ensure that the metering performance of the fuel dispenser is always in good condition.

Secondly, control the quality of oil products and environmental factors

Ensure oil quality: Impurities and moisture in the oil can affect the measurement accuracy of the fuel dispenser, so it is necessary to ensure that the oil quality meets the standards and avoid damage to the fuel dispenser caused by impurities and moisture.

Control environmental factors: Environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and air pressure may also affect the measurement of fuel dispensers. Therefore, the temperature, humidity, and air pressure around the fuel dispenser should be controlled to reduce their impact on measurement accuracy.

Thirdly, strengthen operational standards and training

Strictly follow the operating procedures: Operators should strictly follow the operating procedures for refueling operations to avoid measurement errors caused by improper operation.

Strengthen training: Regularly train operators to improve their professional quality and operational skills, ensuring that they can use fuel dispensers correctly and in a standardized manner.

Fourth, introduce modern technology and management methods

Adopting high-precision measuring devices: introducing high-precision flow measurement devices and sensors to improve the measurement accuracy of fuel dispensers.

Establish an intelligent management system: Utilize digital control systems and remote monitoring technology to monitor and adjust the operating status and measurement accuracy of fuel dispensers in real time, and promptly detect and solve potential fault problems.

Strengthen data management and analysis: Establish a fuel dispenser measurement data management system to collect, organize, and analyze measurement data in order to timely discover the trends and causes of measurement errors.

Fifth, increase regulatory efforts and publicity and education

Strengthen supervision: The metrological administrative authorities and regulatory departments should strengthen the supervision of gas stations, regularly calibrate and inspect fuel dispensers, and ensure that the metrological accuracy of fuel dispensers meets the prescribed requirements.

Promotion and education: Strengthen the promotion and education of consumers and gas station staff, popularize knowledge of gas machine measurement, and enhance their awareness of measurement and rights protection.

In summary, by strictly implementing the national metrological verification regulations, controlling the quality and environmental factors of oil products, strengthening operational norms and training, introducing modern technology and management methods, and increasing supervision and publicity and education measures, it is possible to effectively avoid the increase of errors in fuel dispensers and ensure the measurement accuracy and precision of fuel dispensers.
