Easy Fuel combines Long-range and Proximity RF technologies offering a
revolutionary solution to gasoline management.
revolutionary solution to gasoline management.
Long range RF communication between the station fueling controller and
the vehicles, combined with a short range proximity RF communication
between the vehicles and the fueling nozzles, enable quick and easy secured
controlled refueling transactions.
the vehicles, combined with a short range proximity RF communication
between the vehicles and the fueling nozzles, enable quick and easy secured
controlled refueling transactions.
The RF communication replaces hardwired communication between station
components, hence greatly simplifying system installation at the gasoline
station and reducing the maintenance expenses.
For standard installations the RF frequency is in the range of 902-928MHz
as required by the applications.
For special applications which are reached with high power RFID systems
radiation (up to 4W between 902.5-927.5 MHz) a special off-
communication channel is selected at 902.1 MHz.

EF system comprises three elements:
•
NID (Nozzle IDentification unit):
A very low power RF transmitter, mounted on the refueling
nozzles. The NID periodically transmit its ID when off
hook.
This ID is used to identify the specific requested nozzle to
the station controller.

•
VID (Vehicle IDentification unit):
The VID is mounted in the vehicle.
It is connected to fuel inlet antenna to retrieve the Nozzle
ID and to an RF antenna to communicate with the SC.

•
SC (Site Controller):
The SC is usually mounted at the station office.
It communicates with the vehicles VIDs via an RF antenna
and with the station controller via serial communication
line.
