GREENSBORO, NC - Gilbarco Veeder-Root has shipped its first Encore S Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) dispensers for North America. DEF will be required for many heavy transport trucks equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology to reduce emissions beginning in January 2010. Knoxville, Tenn.-based Pilot Travel Centers announced last month their rollout of the new Gilbarco Encore S DEF dispensers at 100 locations.

Integrated CRIND card reader in dispenser payment options leverage existing interfaces to payment and fleet card networks, alphanumeric keypad applications, and loyalty programs that are supported by the retailer's existing point of sale system.

The new dispenser is designed specifically to prevent DEF freezing and crystallization with a thermostat-controlled, heated cabinet, and specially-designed optional hanging hardware. The Encore S DEF dispenser's hydraulics are stainless steel to protect against corrosion. A new stainless steel mass flow meter measures DEF accurately and reliably and is Weights & Measures approved.

Options include:

CRIND card reader in dispenser with 5.7" monochrome or 10.4" color screens.
Bar code scanner.
Alphanumeric keypad for entry of VIN or FlexPay Encrypting PIN Pad for PCI-compliant PIN-based debit.
FlexPay Secure Card Reader.
Contactless card reader.
Call button.
Intercom speakers.
5 button/incremental programmable preset.
Two-level price posting for cash and credit pricing.

Gilbarco's Encore S DEF dispenser will be exhibited at the NACS Show, Las Vegas Convention Center, Oct. 20-23, Booth 5572.

Turning Connected Vehicle Data Into Decisions That Matter

Fleet leaders have more data than ever, but turning that data into clear, actionable decisions remains a challenge. This white paper shows how leading organizations are using connected vehicle data to improve safety, reduce costs, and optimize fleet performance. Learn how to turn insight into action across your fleet.

Are You Tracking Your Fleet's True Total Cost of Ownership?

Bobit Business Media surveyed 190 fleet professionals and found that while most fleets are tracking costs, fragmented systems and data gaps are keeping true TCO visibility out of reach. With rising pressure to control spend in an increasingly volatile environment, the gap between what fleets think they know and what the data actually shows is wider than you might expect. See how your peers are managing costs today and where the industry still has room to improve.
