Automobile Transport

     Automobile transport is one of the most important areas of economy. In modern conditions it it impossible to imagine the economy without a well-established transportation system. The regim and rhythm of the industrial, construction and transportation enterprises largely depend on its clarity and reliablity. Along with the other transport modes, it provides rational production and circulation of goods, and meets the needs of people in transportation and traffic.

 

     Unfortunately, the owners of vehicles nowadays face many problems:
  • the costs for fuel and fuel materials take a significant part of the general costs of the enterprise;
  • careless attitude of the employees to vehicles and their reluctance to save fuel;
  • impossibility of controlling the actual fuel consumption of the vehicle;
  • impossibility of calculating the actual costs for fuel, leading to significant overpayment;
  • application of fuel writing off norms, adopted during the Soviet Union times and highly exaggerated.

For example, a truck passes about 10 000 km per month. It is about 3000 liters of fuel. An average driver adds about 10% of fuel consumption (which is about 300 liters), which is equal to 1000 km of your vehicle. Taking into accout the present fuel prices, it is not difficult to calculate the actual overpayment of the enterprise, which makes up a significant amount of money.

 

     The solution of these problems is an important task for the head of the enterprise and necessarily implies the economic side of the issue. 

     How to save fuel?

     An important problem of fuel economy can be solved in different ways. Nowadays the market offers a wide variety of fuel control systems, such as: flow sensors, fuel meters of various types (rotary, turbine, screw, ultrasonic etc.). Some of them even have advantages over the flow meters of "AquaMetro AG", but they are originally designed for large volumes of fuel and much more expensive.

     We are not going to deceive you by promising a false percentage of savings, since we do not “sell the panacea for theft”, but introduce an accurate, functional and reliable instrument for complete transport control with a guarantee of the characteristics claimed - highly accurate fuel meters from the world leading manufacturer of measuring equipment, the Swiss company "AquaMetro AG"!

 

     Your benefits with the fuel meters "AquaMetro":

  • ability to conduct continuous monitoring of the actual fuel consumption with high accuracy;
  • application of fuel meters enables enterprises to get the correct information about the time and mode of operation of vehicles;
  • with the help of fuel meters it is possible to develop THE NORMS OF FUEL CONSUMPTION on selected routes and vehicles;
  • measurement of fuel consumption does not require any additional devices;
  • reliability and accuracy of the data do not depend on the position of the meter, fluid density, uneven flow and vibration.

     As practice shows, the use of fuel measurement system along with the awarding of drivers who have saved more fuel as a result of the optimal mode of operation of the vehicle, was a good factor of  motivation of the other drivers. This method helps to achieve the operation of vehicles in a power saving mode and as a result, extend the service life of the vehicle and to detect faults in the fuel system on time.

     Disadvantages of the fuel meter:

  • it causes interference into the fuel system of the vehicle.

     The fuel meter does not affect the efficiency of operation and the capacity of the engine, since the pressure drop in the flow meter is minimal, which can in no way be reflected on the operation of the vehicle.

 

   It should be noted that not all the employees of the company will gladly accept the fact that taking fuel for their own needs will be impossible, and overcoming such a habit, worked out for years, is not that easy. When installing fuel meters, there may be cases of intentional and deliberate damage of devices that will result in additional losses of the enterprise. We recommend that you make sure in the effective performance of the following flow meters by using less expensive but no less effective, mechanical fuel meters «AquaMetro». They do not require any additional equipment or services, you only need to read the data from the meters before a trip.

     After establishing the fuel control with the use of mechanical meters, you can easily upgrade the system, by using the new models of meters, which can be connected to the GPS monitoring systems.
