Truck stop and travel plaza operators at the NATSO Show will see North America's first fuel dispenser designed to offer Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) and Diesel at the same fueling position.

The Gilbarco Encore S DEF + 1 dispenser features an industry exclusive stainless steel mass flow meter that measures DEF accurately and reliably and is Weights & Measures approved. The dispenser is designed specifically to prevent DEF freezing and crystallization with a thermostat-controlled, heated cabinet and specially-designed optional hanging hardware. The hydraulics are stainless steel to protect against corrosion.

"Drivers clearly want the convenience of filling their diesel and DEF tanks from the same fueling position, anywhere on the island," said Chad Johnson, Marketing Manager at Gilbarco Veeder-Root. "Our unique design allows retailers to make the most of their forecourt space and allows for the card transaction to take place at a single fueling position, improving forecourt throughput. And Gilbarco quality means the retailer enjoys the lowest possible total cost of ownership for forecourt equipment."

The new fuel dispenser operates as an Ultra-Hi flow diesel master that can work with an Encore S diesel Ultra-Hi flow satellite unit on the other side of the truck to fill both diesel tanks simultaneously. The master also offers DEF, minimizing the need for drivers to visit multiple locations for their fluid needs.
