  • a table can be used when assigning the amount of suction of the air-gas mixture to the given amount Eliminate fuel errors that result from the individual design of the respective facility, for example through losses in the differently trained and routed lines for returning the air-gas mixture to the respective storage tank.
  • a further increase in the security of the device according to the invention can be achieved in that the current consumption of the three-phase motor for Drive of the gas suction pump is monitored and that when Overcurrent data sent to the dispenser computer via the network be, which cancels the tapping process by switching off the Lead the fuel pump engine. Also the speed of the single phase capacitor motor can be monitored according to the invention so that when it occurs of deviations, a speed adjustment by the associated computer data or in the event of an error via the network to the dispenser computer are delivered, which leads to a termination of the tapping process Stop the fuel pump engine.
