Fuel Consumption Measurement System

About

Fuel Consumption measurement System(FCS) is a self-contained SKID housing Fuel Tank, Tank Weighing System (TWS) of Mettler Toledo (Model No. IND 570), Fuel Tank Filling Pumps/Flame Proof Motor, Temperature Sensors (RTD), Shell & Tube Type Heat Exchangers for cooling of Fuel and a Control Panel (CP) for user to interact with the system. All electronic/software controls & communication interaction with the FCS SKID is through this CP.

It is used to test the fuel consumption of locomotives .SS Tank of 150 Litres supplies the fuel to the TEST ENGINE through pump & filtration system.

Key Features

  • Filter Clogging Indicator Switch (6.0) which indicates that the Filter is clogged
  • Tank Weighing System comprising of 4 Load Cells, Flameproof Junction Box & IND 570 Indicator
  • Temperature Sensors installed to monitor the temperature of chilled water as well as the fuel.
  • Ball Valve at the suction of the Fuel Tank Filling Pump is MANUAL and has a limit switch which tells that this Valve is Open
  • Float Switches get activated in case of Fuel Tank overfill or Fuel Tank over flow
  • PLC Controller is connected with Temperature Sensors, Limit Switches on Valves and Filter Clogging Indicator Switches on filters and also Float Switched.
  • PLC Controller is also connected with Chiller through RS485
  • The HMI on control panel will always show the current status (Open/Close, On/Off) of all components in the Fuel Circuit.
