INTRODUCTION

A few years ago, the trade in fuels and lubricants (POL) was widespread in the sphere of a rather narrow circle of enterprises and organizations. However, at present, due to its almost 100% liquidity and high profitability, this type of entrepreneurial activity has become one of the most popular. Many enterprises and organizations that have never been involved in the trade of fuels and lubricants have become involved in this process. Therefore, many organizations have questions related to the peculiarities of legal regulation and taxation of activities for the production and sale of fuels and lubricants.

General position

1.1. Filling stations (gas stations) are designed to refuel vehicles (except tracked vehicles) with petroleum products.
Some gas stations organize the sale of oils, greases, spare parts, accessories for cars and other vehicles, the reception of used oils and small containers from oil products from owners of individual vehicles, as well as maintenance and car washing.
1.2. Gas stations are divided into stationary, mobile (PAZS), container (KAZS and block points).
Stationary gas stations are located in cities and towns, as well as on highways.
Modular filling stations, the technological system of which is intended for filling vehicles with liquid motor fuel only and is characterized by an above-ground arrangement of tanks and separation of the fuel dispenser and fuel storage container.
Mobile gas stations (PAZS) are placed in places of concentration of vehicles, motor boats and boats, agricultural machinery, in the field, naturist auto routes, the territory of stationary gas stations during the cleaning and repair of tanks. They are mounted on the chassis of cars and trailers.
Block filling stations, the technological system of which is intended for filling vehicles only with liquid motor fuel and is characterized by an underground location of tanks and placement of the fuel dispenser above the fuel storage unit.
Container filling stations are located on motorways, tourist routes, car fleets, industrial and agricultural enterprises, paid parking lots, garage cooperatives, as well as in places where vehicles are concentrated.

Bulk petroleum products are released into the tanks of motor vehicles and containers of consumers exclusively through fuel and oil dispensers.

SCHEME OF THE MASTER PLAN FOR FUEL STATIONS

Gas station territory

The location of the gas station is indicated by the road sign "Gas Station". The roadway of the territory of the gas station must have a hard surface and be in good condition, provide free access for vehicles to each fuel dispenser, drain devices, fire reservoirs, places for unloading container cargo.

The territory of the gas station is equipped with a sewer system that provides for the removal and collection of storm and melt water contaminated with oil products from the surface of the roadway, and the localization of spills during the discharge and release of oil products.

On the territory of the gas station, places for collecting materials used in the elimination of the consequences of an oil spill are allocated and equipped, as well as places are allocated for the installation of garbage bins.

In winter, the passages and driveways on the territory of the gas station are regularly cleared of snow and ice.

During the performance of repair work on the territory of the gas station, pits, pits, trenches must be securely fenced. Upon completion of the repair work, the coverage of the territory must be restored.

When performing repair work on the territory of gas stations in pits, pits, trenches, the state of the air environment in them is monitored.

In case of detection of vapors of oil products, work must be stopped until the pit is completely degassed and the state of the air environment in it is analyzed.

In the case of fencing the territory of the gas station, the enclosing structures must be ventilated and made of non-combustible materials.

Landscaping of the territory of the gas station with coniferous trees, trees, shrubs and grasses that emit fibrous substances or pubescent seeds is not allowed. On the territory of the gas station, constant mowing and removal of dried grass, cutting down the overgrowth of trees and shrubs, collection and removal of fallen leaves should be ensured.

The territory of the gas station at night should have an average horizontal illumination in accordance with building codes and regulations.

It is prohibited to carry out any kind of repair work of vehicles on the territory of the gas station, unless it is provided for by the project.
On the territory of the gas station, the arrangement of underground premises, underground spaces under buildings and structures, as well as underground structures (tunnels, channels, etc.) is prohibited. Pits for fuel dispensers, cable wells, technological wells must be covered with non-combustible material.

Parking of vehicles on the territory of the gas station is prohibited, except for parking lots and parking lots specified by the project.

This complex, like other objects of the network, resembles a cross between an airplane and an airport. The filling station is located at km 33 of the Srednevyborgskoye Highway, at the intersection with the road to the village of Elizavetinka, and is operated by Faeton - Fuel Network No. 1 LLC.

There is a car wash at the station. High-speed equipment of the German company Christ works in several modes and allows you to wash and polish to a shine not only the body, but also the rims of the car, which is a unique service in St. Petersburg. And what is especially valuable - with a minimum of time to bring the car in order. Just a few minutes, and the car shines with cleanliness, the company notes.

This automatic car wash is equipped with Christ portals (series 166) - this is the latest high-pressure touchless washing equipment, which significantly reduces the consumption of water and detergents. The car wash uses 90% of recycled water and high-quality systems of local treatment facilities, which makes it possible not to harm the environment and take care of the environment.

Appointment of the gas station

General ideas about gas stations

The main purpose of gas stations is to refuel motor vehicles. The location of the gas station and its production capacity, taking into account the intensity of traffic flows and compliance with the required safety standards - fire, environmental, etc.

Gas station sites should be with asphalt or concrete pavement and provide free access for vehicles to dispensers and drains. In places where oil products may spill near filling islands, the coating must be resistant to oil products.

Gas stations must be equipped with signs indicating the location of a fire reservoir, water intake wells or a fire hydrant, and markers at gas stations with awnings. The territory in the dark must be lit in accordance with existing standards. Special lighting should be given to the lighting of places for refueling and draining oil products. Gas stations must have a landline phone.

Storage of petroleum products at gas stations is carried out in metal horizontal above-ground or buried tanks.

The design of the tank and the technology of its operation must ensure its tightness for 10 years or more. To control the tightness of the tank, it is equipped with appropriate systems that allow timely detection of a leak and taking measures.

Underground storage tanks for petroleum products;

1 - drain device; 2 – tank for fuel; 3 - receiving valve; 4 - corner anti-explosive; 5 - measuring device; 6 - respiratory valve; 7 - fuel dispenser

1 - trunk; 2 - head; 3 - submersible pump; 4 - breathing valve with a fire fuse; 5 - thermal insulation backfill; 6 - ice lining

A schematic diagram of a stationary filling station is shown in fig. 14.16. The oil product delivered to the gas station using tank trucks is drained through device 1 into fuel tank 2. Here it settles, its quantity is measured through device 5. The oil product is released to consumers using a fuel dispenser 7 connected to the tank by a pipeline on which valve 3, and an angular fuse 4. "Breathing" of the tanks is carried out through valve 6.


Quick and tight connection of the nipple with the sleeve of the tanker is provided by a special quick coupling.
Petroleum products are stored at gas stations in horizontal and vertical steel tanks with a capacity of 5 to 50 m3 and a wall thickness of 3…4 mm. Tanks at filling stations are usually distributed as follows: 75% for gasoline, 15% for diesel fuel and up to 10% for oils.
Gas station tanks are designed for overpressure of 700000 and vacuum - 1000 Pa.
Measuring device 5 is used to measure the level of overflow of oil in the tank. It provides the vertical direction of the measuring rail (meter rod). Structurally, the measuring device is a perforated pipe with a diameter of 40 mm with a lid.
To connect the dispensers to the tanks, a suction device is used, consisting of a receiving valve 3, an angle fuse 4 and a suction pipeline.
The purpose of the intake valve 3 is to prevent the discharge of oil from the suction pipeline into the tank after the dispensing column is turned off. When the pump stops, the pressure in the pipeline and in the tank equalizes and the valve disc, under the action of its own weight, sits on the seat, blocking the cross section.
Corner protector 4 prevents the flame from spreading through the suction pipe. To do this, a brass mesh is installed inside the metal case, which simultaneously acts as a filter for the oil product pumped out of the tank.

Fuel - dispensers are designed for refueling vehicles with simultaneous measurement of the amount of fuel or oil dispensed.
Despite the differences in the designs of dispensers, they all include a pump, a liquid meter, a filter, a dispensing sleeve and a dispensing tap.
The pump of the fuel dispenser is intended for pumping fuel from the gas station tank into the tanks of vehicles. Since the tank is below the column, the pump is self-priming. The capacity of fuel dispenser pumps ranges from 20 to 70 l/min.

The liquid meter is used to measure the consumption of fuel or oil supplied to consumers. The results of instantaneous measurements are summed up and recorded on the counting device as the total amount of dispensed liquid.
The filter is used to remove mechanical impurities from the liquid entering the column.
The dispensing sleeve is intended for pumping liquid and connecting the dispenser with a dispensing tap. In dispensing columns, rubber-fabric petrol-resistant sleeves with a diameter of 25 mm for a pressure of 0.4 MPa are used.
The dispensing tap is used to quickly cut off the fuel jet when it reaches the maximum level in the car tank, in order to prevent overfilling and related losses.

The tank equipment and its placement should ensure that all necessary technological operations are performed:

Reception (discharge) of oil products is provided by a drain device;

The release of oil products is provided by a dispensing device;

cleaning inside the tank is carried out through a special manhole, which can be made on the cover of the technological neck or separately.

Conventional gas stations have 3-4 types of gasoline and diesel fuel in their set. At the same time, there are several options for filling stations at gas stations: according to the principle, one column - one type of fuel, one point - all types of gasoline and diesel fuel, a mixed option (especially in the presence of gas filling stations). The first option involves driving a car to a strictly defined column, which is not very convenient, because. makes. Therefore, at modern gas stations there is a tendency to the second type.

AGZS are gas filling stations. Usually they are part of gas stations, but due to the special requirements for the refueling process, they are located away from gas stations. Today, with the rise in gasoline prices, the demand for gas filling stations is also growing.

KAFS - a container filling station or a filling station of a modular (container) type. Such a mini-gas station is designed for receiving, storing and dispensing one or two types of fuel in the territory of settlements. Gas stations have an above-ground fuel storage tank. Its technological system is characterized by the placement of gas stations (fuel dispensers) in a single unit with a fuel storage container. Convenient for quick deployment of filling stations

MTAZS is a multi-fuel filling station. Allows you to simultaneously sell two types of fuel (liquid motor fuel and liquefied hydrocarbon gas). There are still few such gas stations, but the fashion for gas equipment should do its job - MTAZS will become a common type of gas station.

Diesel fuel is a liquid product used as a fuel in a diesel internal combustion engine, as well as in gas diesel engines. Usually, this term is understood as fuel obtained from kerosene-gas oil fractions of direct distillation of oil.

Benzine is a combustible mixture of light hydrocarbons with a boiling point of 30 to 200 °C.

Propane, C3H8 is an organic substance of the alkane class. Contained in natural gas, formed during the cracking of petroleum products.

Butane (C4H10) is an organic compound of the alkane class. In chemistry, the name is used primarily to refer to butane. The mixture of butane and its isomer isobutane CH(CH3)3 has the same name. Poisonous, inhalation of butane causes dysfunction of the pulmonary-respiratory apparatus.

Fuel dispensers

Filling stations use fuel, oil and mixture dispensers designed to refuel vehicles with simultaneous measurement of the amount of fuel, oil or mixture dispensed. The dispensers as strict metering devices are equipped with measuring devices, the reading error of which under operating conditions at an ambient and fuel temperature of + -40С should not go beyond: + -0.25% of fuel dispensers for general use.

Design software distinguishes the following types of speakers:

· KR - portable with the manual drive;

·КЭР - stationary with the electric drive;

· KEM - stationary with electric drive and control from a local setting device;

· КА - stationary with the electric drive, automated.

Fuel dispensers, regardless of design and manufacturer, have a pump, a liquid meter, a counting device, a gas separator with a float chamber, a filter, an indicator, a dispensing valve, a check valve and a housing.

Filling station operation

The source of environmental pollution at gas stations is the evaporation of oil products, spills of oil products, as well as exhaust gases from motor vehicles.

On the territory of the gas station, it is necessary to periodically check the gas contamination of the surrounding air.

Discharge of untreated sewage into water bodies is strictly prohibited.

The change of filter materials, as well as the removal of trapped oil products and sediment from treatment facilities, must be carried out as necessary.

It is necessary to systematically monitor the cleanliness of sewer wells, prevent flooding of their outlets, at least 2 times a year to clean and conduct an internal inspection of the existing equipment of the sewer network, wells and necessary repairs.

2. PROVISION OF RELATED SERVICES AT PETROL STATIONS

On the territory of gas stations, buildings and facilities for industrial purposes for service maintenance of vehicles (posts for maintenance and car washing) can be located on separate areas. Vehicle maintenance facilities include:

Maintenance points (designed to perform current repairs of vehicles);

Rooms for battery work;

Blocks for washing vehicles;

Fuel dispenser;

Oil warehouse;

Premises (platforms) for parking vehicles in daily operation;

Premises (platforms) for parking of mobile service facilities;

Tire inflation point;

Objects of water, heat and power supply;

Domestic premises.

The relations that arise between the gas station and the client when providing services for the maintenance of vehicles are governed by the Rules for the provision of services (performance of work) for the maintenance and repair of motor vehicles, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 11, 2001 N 290 (hereinafter referred to as the Rules for the provision of services for maintenance).

The provision of related services is carried out by the gas station (executor) on the basis of an agreement concluded with the client (consumer).

Conclusion

In conclusion, I would like to point out that in our time, fuels and lubricants are used in almost all sectors of the national economy, by enterprises of all forms of ownership. Accounting and taxation of the purchase and use of gasoline and other fuels and lubricants cause certain difficulties in the enterprise, primarily associated with a significant amount of primary documentation.

However, in order to ensure that during a possible tax audit in an organization there are no problems with the tax authorities regarding the correct reflection of the sale of fuels and lubricants or their purchase and use in their activities, the author recommends paying special attention to the correctness and clarity of execution of primary documents related to production (use) of petroleum products.

The section of the pipeline from the technological well to the fuel dispenser is laid in trays, excluding the release of fuel spills from it into the ground.

Deaeration line- a set of equipment that provides fire and explosion-proof communication with the atmosphere of the free space of the tank. The line consists of a ground section of a steel pipeline, the end of which is equipped with a breather valve and shut-off valves in front of the breather valve, and a section laid in a mine connecting the vapor space of the reservoir with the ground section. Shut-off valves are designed to shut off this pipeline during system tightness tests, as well as for the safe replacement and maintenance of the breathing valve. Thresholds of operation of the respiratory valve: vacuum 100-150 Pa, pressure 1400±50 Pa. The breathing valve is installed at the end of the line, the installation height from the site surface is 2.5 m. The throughput of the line is controlled using a pressure and vacuum gauge with shutoff valves.

Desliming line- a set of equipment that ensures the removal of produced water with solid particles (sludge) from the tank. The line is also used for complete emptying of the tank from oil product residues (when the oil product level is below the point of its intake by the dispensing line) and for mechanized flushing of the tank in a closed way. The desliming line consists of:

a stationary part, which is a pipeline DN 40, on the one hand ending with a collector for the formation intake of produced water, passing at a distance of no more than 10 mm from the bottom of the tank, and on the other hand, with a fitting with a hermetically sealed plug and designed to connect the hose of the sludge pumping pump or cleaning solution

· portable part, consisting of a suction hose, a hand pump, a drain hose and a portable sludge container.

1.1.4. PROCESS PIPING

The requirements for the process pipelines of gas stations are set by NPB 111-98 *, tightness and strength must comply with SNiP 3.05.05, and anti-corrosion protection of underground sections - GOST 6.602. For technological pipelines, a piping diagram with shut-off valves installed on it should be drawn up.

Technological pipelines must not be laid in common trenches with gas pipelines, fire water pipelines, heat pipelines, as well as with high and low voltage cables.

Flange connections of pipelines and equipment must be tightly tightened on gaskets made of gasoline-resistant material.

Gland seals of shut-off and other devices should be checked regularly with the addition or replacement of stuffing box packing.

Underground sections of communications must have an anti-corrosion coating. Ground areas must be painted.

Process pipelines with fittings, fuel dispensers and drain hoses must be securely connected to a single grounding system.

Single-wall underground pipelines for fuel and its vapors should be located at a depth of at least 0.4 m in buried trays, excluding fuel leakage beyond them.

When using double-wall pipelines of the "pipe in pipe" type with detachable connections that provide separate sealing of the internal and external pipelines, construction without trays is allowed.

Technological pipelines located underground or in the free space of the shafts of tanks and technological wells must meet the following requirements:

flange connections should be carried out according to the tenon-groove principle;

Open and close gate valves on pipelines using flywheels or special keys, without using any additional levers;

· make sure that water does not get into the pipeline, in order to avoid its defrosting.

Inspection of pipelines should be carried out daily. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of flange and socket connections.

Fuel leaks from the pipeline and sweat spots must be eliminated immediately by:

setting of emergency couplings and collars;

Welding

· tightening bolts or replacing gaskets in flanged connections with preliminary release of the pipeline;

repair of pipelines with epoxy-based plastics.

At least once a year, steam-air pipelines must be purged with air to remove deposits, and once every five years they must be tested for tightness.

Pipelines connecting various filling station equipment form technological lines for filling and draining fuel, deaeration of tanks and their cleaning.

MOBILE FUEL STATIONS

1.2.1. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

They are a mobile technological system installed on a car chassis, trailer or semi-trailer, manufactured as a single factory product. Designed for transportation and refueling of vehicles in places of concentration of vehicles, agricultural machinery in the field, on tourist routes, as well as on the territory of stationary gas stations during cleaning and repair of tanks.

Technical characteristics of PASS are given in table. 1.2.

The PAZS should be located on a specially designated site, agreed with the administrative authorities, be level and provide the possibility of free access of vehicles for refueling in compliance with fire safety rules. Security markings, appropriate signs about the location of a fire reservoir, water intake wells or a fire hydrant, markers for canopies, posters with the driver's duties when refueling a car are installed.

The territory must be illuminated in accordance with existing standards, especially places for refueling and draining fuel, and also equipped with telephone and loud-speaking communications.

Signs are installed indicating the name of the operator on duty, the opening hours and the location of the nearest gas station. Each column must be marked with its serial number and brand of the dispensed oil product.

PAZS is registered with the traffic police. The stencils "Mobile gas station", "Flammable" and a sign of cargo classification in accordance with GOST 19433-88 and "Rules for the transport of dangerous goods in the Russian Federation" are applied on it. On the inside of the cabinet door is placed

Filling stations (gas stations) are designed to service and refuel cars and other vehicles with fuel and lubricants. Along the way, they sell oils, lubricants and special liquids packaged in small containers. The auxiliary operations performed at gas stations include washing cars, their minor repairs, and the sale of spare parts. An integral part of modern gas stations are a cafe and a convenience store.

According to the method of installation and installation of equipment, gas stations are divided into stationary and mobile.

Mobile gas stations (PAZS) are mounted on a frame and, depending on their purpose, are installed on a car or trailer. They consist of a container, measuring and dispensing devices mounted on the vehicle chassis.

Stationary gas stations are built according to standard designs for 300,500,750 and 1000 gas stations per day (1 gas station - 50 liters of fuel and 2 liters of oil). They include:

Underground storage tanks for petroleum products;

Fuel and oil dispensers;

Premises for service personnel;

Other premises in accordance with the additional functions performed by the gas station.

A schematic diagram of a stationary filling station is shown in fig. 14.16.

Fig.14.16. Schematic diagram of the gas station:

1 - drain device; 2 - fuel tank; 3 - receiving valve; 4 - corner anti-explosive; 5 - measuring device; 6 - respiratory valve; 7 - fuel dispenser

The oil product delivered to the gas station using tank trucks is drained through device 1 into the fuel tank 2. Here it settles, its quantity is measured through device 5. The oil product is released to consumers using a fuel dispenser 7 connected to the tank by a pipeline on which a receiving valve 3 and an angle fuse 4 were mounted. The “breathing” of the tanks is carried out through valve 6.

Consider the elements of the gas station circuit diagram in more detail.

Drainage device 1 is designed to drain oil products into the tank in a closed way, i.e. under the level of the product in it. The drain device consists of a nipple, to which we attach the "sleeve of a tank truck, a filter and a drain pipeline.

Quick and tight connection of the nipple with the sleeve of the tanker is provided by a special quick coupling.

For storage of petroleum products at filling stations, horizontal and vertical steel tanks with a capacity of 5 to 50 m 3 and a wall thickness of 3...4 mm are used. Tanks at filling stations are usually distributed as follows: 75% for gasoline, 15% for diesel fuel and up to 10 % - under oils.

Gas station tanks are designed for overpressure of 700000 and vacuum -1000 Pa.

Measuring device5 is used to measure the level of oil spillage in the tank. It provides the vertical direction of the measuring rail (meter rod). Structurally, the measuring device is a perforated pipe with a diameter of 40 mm with a lid.

To connect the dispensers to the tanks, a suction device is used, consisting of a receiving valve 3, an angle fuse 4 and a suction pipeline.

The purpose of the intake valve3 is to prevent the discharge of oil from the suction pipeline into the tank after the dispensing column is turned off. When the pump stops, the pressure in the pipeline and in the tank equalizes and the valve disc, under the action of its own weight, sits on the seat, blocking the cross section.

Corner protector 4 prevents the flame from spreading through the suction pipe. To do this, a brass mesh is installed inside the metal case, which simultaneously acts as a filter for the oil product pumped out of the tank.

Fuel - dispensers are designed for refueling vehicles with simultaneous measurement of the amount of fuel or oil dispensed.

Despite the differences in the designs of dispensers, they all include a pump, a liquid meter, a filter, a dispensing sleeve and a dispensing tap.

The pump of the fuel dispenser is intended for pumping fuel from the gas station tank into the tanks of vehicles. Since the tank is below the column, the pump is self-priming. The capacity of fuel dispenser pumps ranges from 20 to 70 l/min.

The liquid meter is used to measure the consumption of fuel or oil supplied to consumers. The results of instantaneous measurements are summed up and recorded on the counting device as the total amount of dispensed liquid.

The filter is used to remove mechanical impurities from the liquid entering the column.

The dispensing sleeve is intended for pumping liquid and connecting the dispenser with a dispensing tap. In dispensing columns, rubber-fabric petrol-resistant sleeves with a diameter of 25 mm for a pressure of 0.4 MPa are used.

The dispensing tap is used to quickly cut off the fuel jet when it reaches the maximum level in the car tank, in order to prevent overflow and related losses.

General ideas about gas stations

The main purpose of gas stations is to refuel motor vehicles. The location of the gas station and its production capacity, taking into account the intensity of traffic flows and compliance with the required safety standards - fire, environmental, etc.

Gas station sites should be with asphalt or concrete pavement and provide free access for vehicles to dispensers and drains. In places where oil products may spill near filling islands, the coating must be resistant to oil products.

Gas stations must be equipped with signs indicating the location of a fire reservoir, water intake wells or a fire hydrant, and markers at gas stations with awnings. The territory in the dark must be lit in accordance with existing standards. Special lighting should be given to the lighting of places for refueling and draining oil products. Gas stations must have a landline phone.

Storage of petroleum products at gas stations is carried out in metal horizontal above-ground or buried tanks.

Tanks and their equipment

Rice. one

The design of the tank and the technology of its operation must ensure its tightness for 10 years or more. To control the tightness of the tank, it is equipped with appropriate systems that allow timely detection of a leak and taking measures. The tank equipment and its placement should ensure that all necessary technological operations are performed:

1. reception (draining) of oil products is provided by a drain device;

2. the release of petroleum products is provided by a dispensing device;

cleaning inside the tank is carried out through a special manhole, which can be made on the cover of the technological neck or separately.


Conventional gas stations have 3-4 types of gasoline and diesel fuel in their set. At the same time, there are several options for filling stations at gas stations: according to the principle, one column - one type of fuel, one point - all types of gasoline and diesel fuel, a mixed option (especially in the presence of gas filling stations). The first option involves driving a car to a strictly defined column, which is not very convenient, because. makes. Therefore, at modern gas stations there is a tendency to the second type.

AGZS are gas filling stations. Usually they are part of gas stations, but due to the special requirements for the refueling process, they are located away from gas stations. Today, with the rise in gasoline prices, the demand for gas filling stations is also growing.

KAFS - container gas station or gas station of modular (container) type. Such a mini-gas station is designed for receiving, storing and dispensing one or two types of fuel in the territory of settlements. Gas stations have an above-ground fuel storage tank. Its technological system is characterized by the placement of gas stations (fuel dispensers) in a single unit with a fuel storage container. Convenient for quick deployment of filling stations

MTAZS is a multi-fuel filling station. Allows you to simultaneously sell two types of fuel (liquid motor fuel and liquefied hydrocarbon gas). There are still few such gas stations, but the fashion for gas equipment should do its job - MTAZS will become a common type of gas station.


Diesel fuel is a liquid product used as a fuel in a diesel internal combustion engine, as well as in gas diesel engines. Usually, this term is understood as fuel obtained from kerosene-gas oil fractions of direct distillation of oil.

Benzimn is a combustible mixture of light hydrocarbons with a boiling point of 30 to 200 °C.

Propamn, C3H8 is an organic substance of the alkane class. Contained in natural gas, formed during the cracking of petroleum products.

Butamn (C4H10) is an organic compound of the alkane class. In chemistry, the name is mainly used to refer to n-butane. The mixture of n-butane and its isomer isobutane CH(CH3)3 has the same name. Poisonous, inhalation of butane causes dysfunction of the pulmonary-respiratory apparatus.

Fuel dispensers

Filling stations use fuel, oil and mixture dispensers designed to refuel vehicles with simultaneous measurement of the amount of fuel, oil or mixture dispensed. The dispensers as strict metering devices are equipped with measuring devices, the reading error of which under operating conditions at an ambient and fuel temperature of + -40С should not go beyond: + -0.25% of fuel dispensers for general use.

Design software distinguishes the following types of speakers:

· КР - portable with the manual drive;

· KER - stationary with electric drive;

· KEM - stationary with an electric drive and control from a local setting device;

· КА - stationary with the electric drive, automated.

Fuel dispensers, regardless of design and manufacturer, have a pump, a liquid meter, a counting device, a gas separator with a float chamber, a filter, an indicator, a dispensing valve, a check valve and a housing.

Rice. 2

Fuel from tank 1, through intake valve 2, passing through filter 3, enters pump 4.
