IoT Fuel Control Terminal
Automate Fueling
The Internet of Things Fuel Control Terminal (FCT) is a fuel island solution to control access and interface with fuel dispensing systems. The FCT stores and transmits accurate transaction details, pump status, and can be used for broadcast or targeted messaging upon user connection.
Because it’s always connected, the IoT FCT allows fleet managers to use Fuel View software to remotely authorize fueling for any vehicle or driver as well as control the fuel type, quantity and frequency.
The FCT interfaces with gasoline, diesel, CNG, propane, and dispensing device, as well as EV charging stations. Each FCT can control up to 10 hoses in any combination of product.
FCTs provide exceptional versatility and convenience in transit bays for vehicle fluids and lubricants. Proven industrial grade components and a durable powder-coat finish withstand the harshest environments, providing dependable performance for decades.
