Technoton DFM-D Differential Fuel Flow Meter for Modern Diesel Engines

Technoton DFM-D Differential Fuel Flow Meter is a specialized instrument engineered for the precise measurement of diesel fuel consumption in the fuel lines of vehicles and stationary engines. Designed to integrate seamlessly into GPS vehicle tracking systems, this device registers both fuel usage and engine working time across various operational modes. It is particularly well-suited for modern engine architectures, including Common Rail and pump injector fuel systems, where accurate differential measurement is critical.

Description

Technoton DFM-D Differential Fuel Flow Meter addresses the complexity of measuring fuel consumption in engines with supply and return fuel lines. Unlike single-chamber meters, the DFM-D is designed to calculate the difference between the fuel flowing to the engine and the fuel returning to the tank, providing a net consumption figure that is essential for accurate accounting.

Versatile Integration and Autonomous Operation

This flow meter is a versatile tool for fleet management. It can serve as a key component of a comprehensive GPS vehicle tracking system, transmitting data to a web server for remote analysis. Alternatively, models equipped with a display can function as a stand-alone, autonomous solution for accounting fuel consumption without requiring a connection to an external server. This flexibility makes it ideal for a wide range of vehicles and stationary units.

Comprehensive Operational Data

Beyond simple volume measurement, the DFM-D registers the working time of the engine in various modes of operation. This granular data allows fleet managers and engineers to analyze performance, schedule maintenance more effectively based on actual running time, and detect anomalies that may indicate mechanical issues or fuel theft.
