The problem
Mining equipment burns thousands of litres daily. Without accurate consumption data, fuel theft, excessive idling and unplanned breakdowns drive costs up.
What we do
DFM Marine flow meters handle consumption up to 4,000 L/h. Combined with DUT-E sensors and GNOM load sensors, you get a full picture of fuel use, payload and equipment condition.
Applications
Monitoring of fuel consumption and operation modes of mining and quarrying equipment (rock trucks, bulldozers, crawler tractors, loaders, power units) allows to reduce operation costs, prevent fuel theft and equipment breakdown.
The main feature of our solutions for quarry equipment is using DFM Marine fuel flow meters, which were designed for equipment with fuel consumption up to 4000 L/h. Also solution can include DUT-E fuel level sensors, which are installed in fuel tanks and determine accurate fuel level. The solution can be extended with axle load and/or bucket position monitoring by adding GNOM axle load/shift sensor. All received data is proceed by CANUp telematics gateway and sent to the web-based ORF4 telematics service, or directly by SMS, e-mail or messenger.
Monitored parameters
- Exact volume of fuel remaining in tank.
- Fuel consumption and engine working time – total and by operation modes: “Idling”, “Optimal”, “Overload”.
- Position of attachments – bucket, blade, drill.
- Temperature and pressure of liquids and other operational parameters of engines.
- GPS location, route.
