OPW Fuel Management Systems' new SiteSentinel iSite automatic tank-gauging system provides site operators with a new system that is easy to use and install, while it presents complete inventory, delivery, automatic reconciliation, exception alarms, and environmental-compliance information for as many as 256 aboveground storage tanks.

The heart of the iSite system is its “best-in-class” iSite Console. Featuring a 15-inch color LCD touch-screen display, all of the critical information found on the iSite Console is presented in a cockpit-style view, allowing the user ready access to inventory, deliveries, compliance and general site status — all in real-time and without the need for time-consuming menu navigation. Additionally, the console can be installed anywhere the user wants or needs it — back office, front of building, wall-mounted, on a desktop, at home, or miles away from the installation.

Information that appears on the iSite Console is transmitted from the probes installed in the ASTs via the VSmart Module. Whenever a device (probes or sensors) is connected from the AST to the VSmart Module, the device information is sent directly from the VSmart to the iSite Console, providing for easy setup and configuration of the devices installed at the site. The VSmart can be connected to the iSite Console through either a two-wire RS-485 or CAT5 connection, or wirelessly. This option eliminates the need to trench and run conduit under existing concrete or paved fueling facilities.
