RIH3000R Remote Island Head Unit

PRODUCT FEATURES

FLEETWATCH. Model 3000R Remote Island Head (RIH) units can be interfaced with a SYSTEMController to provide controlled access and monitoring of multiple fluid hoses at a service location. The Model 3000 Remote Island Head Unit offers three distinct operating modes.

OPERATION MODES

Operational Mode 1 - Bus Transit Service Lane

 In a typical transit bus garage one Model 3000R RIH unit is located in each service lane. This unit monitors and controls one or more fuel dispensers (diesel, unleaded, CNG, LNG, etc.) and reels for engine oil, coolant, and automatic transmission fluid. When a bus drives into the service lane the bus number, employee number, and mileage are recorded electronically (see options below) or entered through the keypad. A special message (such as "INSPECTION DUE") may be displayed. The display will then indicate that fueling should begin and the expected amount of fuel will be displayed. At that point, solenoid valves in all authorized fluid lines at that service lane are unlocked and all fluids are recorded simultaneously and charged to the bus in that service position.

OPERATION MODES

Operational Mode 2 - Service Island

In the Service Island Mode where several vehicles may pull up for service at the same time (on either side of the island), the Model 3000R RIH units initial prompt will always be "SELECT HOSE." Only one hose can be selected and only that hose will be unlocked. It is possible to unlock more than one hose at the same time for a vehicle (fuel and oil, for example), but the data entry process must be repeated for each additional hose. Following input of all required data, either through a card reader, Trip Recorder, scanner, direct connection, or manually through the keypad, the RIH unit will display the expected fuel for approximately 10 seconds and then cycle back to "SELECT HOSE." At this point someone else can select a different hose (several vehicles can be serviced simultaneously).

Operational Mode 3 - Data Collector

(This operational mode does not require a SYSTEMController)
Like Operational Mode 1, typically one Model 3000R RIH is located in each service lane. The bus number, employee number and mileage are recorded electronically (see options below) or entered through the keypad. The display will then request that each amount of fuel, engine oil, coolant and ATF be entered through the keypad. Upon pressing the "Reset" key the unit is ready for the next service transaction.

FR200 & Mobile Vehicle Data Receivers

PRODUCT FEATURES

FLEETWATCH Receivers allow the user to unlock the full potential of our line of radio frequency vehicle identification and mileage tracking devices. When used in conjunction with FLEETWATCH mileage devices, the receivers allow for fully electronic transfer of vehicle ID and mileage. The data from the receiver may also be transferred directly into a FLEETWATCH Fuel/Fluid Management System where it can be combined with fuel/fluids & employee data resulting in a totally electronic time stamped transaction record. FLEETWATCH Receivers free your servicing staff from time-consuming and error-prone manual data entry and allows them to concentrate on what they do best.

The Series 200 line of Electronic Vehicle Data Recorders automatically record mileage (and other information) as the vehicle travels.

When a Series 200 data recorder receives a beacon signal from a receiving unit, it transmits the preprogrammed vehicle number, the life-to-date mileage of the vehicle, and coded data, including information on the status of the battery powering the unit, to the receiver.

Several receivers are available for the FLEETWATCH line of Electronic Vehicle Data Recorders. These may be used alone or two or more receiver options may be used in conjunction to create the most reliable data collection option depending upon the installation environment.


SRF55 Vehicle Detector

The FLEETWATCH® Model SRF55 Vehicle Detector is an ultrasonic range finding vehicle detector designed to work where optical detectors do not.

PRODUCT FEATURES

The FLEETWATCH® Model SRF55 Vehicle Detector connects to the FLEETWATCH® Fluid Managment System to detect vehicle presence and trigger a reset when the vehicle pulls out of the service area. Once the vehicle leaves the SRF55 sends a reset signal to the system and the transaction is closed out to prepare the system for the next transaction.

SETUP AND PROGRAMMING

Once the SRF55 is installed the unit will automatically “set the floor” so the device will know how far away the floor is located. Once an object passes into the field of view of the SRF55 and is within a certain distance from the device it will sense the presence of the object. Once the object leaves the field of view of the SRF55 it will momentarily close the normally open switch contacts. This switch is typically wired to the system reset to close out the current transaction and prepare the system for the next vehicle.


RIH3000RS Remote Station

PRODUCT FEATURES

FLEETWATCH RIH3000RS Remote Station is an economical solution to extend the control of an RIH3000R to remote areas which are controlled by a Remote Island Head Unit but may not have convenient access to it.

The RIH3000RS is a remote keypad and display (with optional card reader support) connected to an RIH3000R Remote Island Head Unit to control the unit at a distance. This allows you to maximize the capability of each RIH3000R unit with minimal infrastructure impact.


Other Related Lane Equipment

FLEETWATCH interfaces with all industry standard solenoid valves and pulse meters to control and monitor fuels and fluids in service lanes, maintenance bays, non-revenue fueling locations, and more.

These systems can range in complexity from simple monitoring of all of the fluid that flows from a pump room into a Maintenance Bay area to complete control and recording of individual hose reels (Engine Oil, Coolant, ATF, DEF, etc.) in the Maintenance Bay area.
