Safety and Control System (SCS)

The SCS sealed parcel delivery system monitors liquid products transported by meter-less tank trucks, and is in accordance with EN15208. EU directive on Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) prohibits the use of dipsticks on tank trucks for petroleum products therefore the SCS provides an approved method of tank truck monitoring.

The SCS system is mounted on petroleum tank trucks and has been designed to be electronically sealed to provide a “sealed parcel delivery” system after the loading has been completed.

About the SCS System

• It will prove that the compartments are sealed at the loading point and the quantities conform to the bill of lading
• At the service station the compartment sealed status can be easily verified so no need for secondary measurement
• After unloading has been completed, the system will indicate the condition of the compartments and discharge lines
• The system eliminates the frustration of verifying deliveries
• The SCS event information with time and date indication can be printed or uploaded to a PC/OTC
• The SCS can communicate via GPRS coordinates information (optional)

SCS System Components

• Sensor mounted on each manhole to indicate if manhole is open or closed
• Liberty overfill prevention sensor communicates with CEN type rack monitors wet/dry indicator
• ROM bottom empty sensor wet/dry indicator
• API adaptor movement sensor to indicate if API adaptor is open or closed
• API adaptor liquid sensor to indicate liquid in discharge line wet/dry
• SCS monitor with power supply and optional wireless ticket printer

The SCS System Working Principle

The display on the SCS monitor will indicate at any point of time the status of all the truck compartments and, by scrolling through the system, the status of any part of the SCS system per tank-truck compartment.

Sealed
After the loading has been completed and the API adapters have been closed, the status of the tank-truck will visually indicate if it is sealed.

Unsealed
In case of opening of any of the manholes and/or API adaptors after the loading has been completed and before arriving at the service station, the display of the SCS monitor will switch to an un-sealed status allowing the service station owner to refuse the load.

Unsealed/Resealed
The SCS system eliminates the frustration of verifying deliveries. In the event that one of the compartments cannot be emptied completely, at the push of a button the truck driver can change the status from “unsealed” to “resealed.”

Delivery information and GPRS coordinates can be uploaded and transferred via GPRS and/or printed. SCS monitors and stores data for 40 days on average.
