"The Fusion controller's technology helps us make the most of our equipment," said Phil Near, president [image-nocss] of Crescent Oil, Independence, Kansas. "It is an excellent tool for increasing efficiency and reducing costs."
Crescent Oil selected the Ovation iX fuel dispenser because its flexible hose configuration enables the company's retail sites to dispense high-blend ethanol fuels for flex-fuel vehicles through one hose while dispensing lower-ratio blends through another hose.
"This capability is a significant step toward increasing the distribution of eco-friendly fuels, particularly because many states are beginning to mandate dedicated hoses for high-ratio ethanol fuels," said Scott Negley, director of Dresser Wayne North American product management.
The Dresser Wayne Ovation dispensers are compliant with the latest payment security regulations from the Payment Card Industry (PCI). iX Pay secure payment is a scalable solution that exceeds the current regulatory requirements and provides a solid platform to meet upcoming standards. The Ovation iX dispensers feature the iX Technology Platform that also offer optional multimedia marketing, remote monitoring and a redundant in-dispenser point-of-sale system.
In addition to the eco-fuel capabilities of the dispensers, the company is taking advantage of Dresser Wayne's Fusion Universal Site Controller. It seamlessly controls multiple ethanol blends in the dispenser from a variety of fuel feedstocks, as well as a wide range of equipment functionality. The Fusion controller offers remote management of multiple systems and dispensers across several sites. It consolidates and simplifies the management of devices, even those from different vendors and in different locations. The combination of the Ovation iX fuel dispenser and the Fusion Universal Site Controller gives Crescent Oil a powerful alternative fuel solution.
