What is FuelDirect?
FuelDirect, offered by Progressive International Electronics, is a fuel control and management solution designed to provide accurate and automated control of high-flow dispensers. According to the vendor, FuelDirect is suitable for businesses of various sizes, ranging from small enterprises to large corporations. This versatile solution caters to a wide range of industries and professions, including gas stations, convenience stores, fleet management companies, marinas, truck stops, and government agencies with fueling operations.
Key Features
EMR3 Interface: According to the vendor, FuelDirect features an EMR3 interface that enables accurate and automated control of high-flow dispensers. It can be used with all PI fuel controllers as part of the Hybrid Mechanical DBox, replacing the mechanical register with the standard Veeder-Root EMR3. This interface allows for electronic communication with the EMR3, enhancing fuel management capabilities.
PIcon II Console: The PIcon II Console, according to the vendor, offers a full-featured experience that includes prepay/postpay options, presets, and more. This console also offers management features such as reports, station totals, and protected management settings. The vendor claims that it can be seamlessly connected to TLS350/450 for reconciliation purposes.
*EMR3 (by Veeder-Root)**: FuelDirect incorporates the EMR3 system by Veeder-Root, which, according to the vendor, is known for its accuracy and reliability in capturing and storing fuel dispensing transactions. By utilizing the EMR3, FuelDirect aims to enhance the accuracy, security, and accountability of metering systems. This system consists of a display head with controls and an interconnect box (IB), and it is used on bulk flow meters, effectively replacing the mechanical registers in fuel dispensers.
Connection Capabilities: According to the vendor, FuelDirect's EMR3 interface can be easily connected to the PIcon II console and other PIE forecourt controllers. Additionally, it can be installed within the PI Hybrid Mechanical DBox, which utilizes the PI standard mechanical protocol. The system also supports flow control relay for authorization purposes, aiming to ensure seamless integration with existing infrastructure.
Personalized Service: Progressive International Electronics values personalized service and, according to the vendor, strives to build relationships with distributors and end-users. They claim that customers can expect to speak with a real person who understands their needs when reaching out for support. The support staff is said to be highly trained with expertise in their own product lines as well as major dispenser and product brands. The vendor claims to provide guidance on purchasing decisions, installations, and service, and also offers in-house training for developing POS systems to communicate with FuelDirect.
