Wayne Standardizes Retail Fuel Dispensers to E25

Technology upgrade effective immediately for Ovation, year-end for Helix

AUSTIN, Texas -- Wayne Fueling Systems has announced that as a standard feature, all Wayne North American retail fuel dispensers will be supplied as compatible and UL-listed to E25 (25% ethanol and 75% petroleum).

The shift from the standard Underwriters Laboratory listing of E10 to E25 is effective immediately for Wayne Ovation fuel dispensers and by the end of the year for the Wayne Helix family of dispensers.

With the potential shift to higher ethanol blends necessary to meet future fuel requirements brought about by more stringent CAFE standards and GHG reductions by 2025, this move is an expression of Wayne’s continued intent of supplying its customers with the most flexible, reliable and “future-proof” equipment options, it said. This is the strategy that led to the development of Wayne’s dual-blending series, which enabled the maximum number fuel grade selections to support mid-level ethanol blends.

“We are pleased to be the first manufacturer to offer E25-listed dispensers as standard to our North American dispenser product offering, reflecting the growing interest from our customers to prepare for any and all necessary changes to the fueling infrastructure in the future,” said Tom Cerovski, Wayne’s vice president of products and services.

Most of dispensers in the industry are only certified to dispense E10 fuel, the company said.
