Use of Electronic
Meter Registers has been steadily growing in use. Operators are tired
of the maintenance problems and inefficiencies of mechanical registers.
Electronic registers offer greater reliability, durability and more
information than mechanical registers. Electronic registers have
enhanced security and product flow control with the use of electronic
solenoid valves.
Tickets can be stamped with date, time, identification number, operator
number and other key information automatically. The tickets are
clean, legible and professional-looking. Electronic registers inherently
offer temperature volume compensation as a built in feature. With
a known gravity and coefficient of expansion, any fluid volume can
be corrected due the effects of temperature. Alternatively, you can
select from a list of standard tables built into the electronic register.
There
are many electronic registers to choose from in today's marketplace.
We offer products from the major players shown below. All offer
competitive systems starting with a basic replacement for mechanical
registers through advanced systems for complete dispensing control.
See below for further information.
