  • Publication number: 20240029041
    Abstract: An advanced service station system includes a service station with a forecourt area having a forecourt terminal associated with a memory unit and dispenser. The forecourt terminal sends control signals to the dispenser and receives an actual datum that detects a quantity of fuel dispensed, the datum being stored in the memory unit and used to generate a local metrological certificate of the quantity of fuel dispensed. The system includes a remote management centre with a central control module (with a central memory unit) that receives a signal having received data stored in the memory unit, the received data having the datum and data correlated to the datum and dispenser; and stores the received data in the central memory unit and processes the received data to generate a remote metrological certificate, which compared with the local metrological certificate allows to generate a remote metrological certificate of quantity of fuel dispensed.

  • Patent number: 8381763
    Abstract: The invention relates to a gas filling and dispensing device that comprises a body to be positioned in the opening of a pressurized gas storage tank, a gas-tapping circuit extending between a first upstream end to be connected to the inside of the tank and a second downstream end to be connected to a gas user, wherein the tapping circuit includes a first insulation valve, the device further including a safety valve subjected to the tank pressure for blocking or selectively opening a passage for the gas from the tank towards a discharge area based on the temperature and/or pressure of the gas in the tank relative to at least one predetermined threshold, characterized in that the discharge area of the safety valve is located upstream from the first insulation valve.
