Fuel Level Monitoring & Management at Gas Stations by Using Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) System

Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) system is used at gas stations to monitor fuel levels and other parameters in storage tanks. 

ATG systems are important for several reasons: 

• Accuracy: ATG systems provide precise data and reports on product delivery and dispensing, eliminating the need for manual measurements and monthly inventory calculations. 
• Compliance: ATG systems help ensure compliance with national regulations. 
• Safety: ATG systems can include alarms and automatic shutdown features to prevent overfilling and other safety hazards. 
• Tracking: ATG systems can track fuel levels over time to see if a tank is leaking. 

How the ATG system works:

• Probe: A magnetostrictive probe is installed in the opening at the top of the tank. The probe has two floats that measure fuel and water levels. 
• Console: A smart console displays the tank level information in real time. 
• Communication system: The console can transmit data to a remote location. 
• Data collection: When a tank is idle, the ATG monitors the fuel level for at least 15 to 20 minutes between customers. It gathers and stores data during these periods. 
• Alerts: Some ATG systems can print an alarm report if a warning or alarm condition occurs. The report includes the type of warning or alarm, its location, and the date and time it occurred.
