Very often, truck drivers, waking up in the morning, find a hacked fuel tank. As a result, the carrier gets good money – this is not only the cost of a new refueling, but also fines for late deliveries. Therefore, Scania decided to implement a special alarm on its trucks – Fuel Theft Alarm.
The system monitors the fuel level in the tank for 65 hours after turning on the battery. If the diesel fuel began to leak out quickly or the filler cap is cracked, the system turns on a sound siren, which is activated by a standard alarm. The client also receives a text message by e-mail and, in addition, a corresponding warning on the Scania Fleet Management Portal fleet management portal when the Control Package is activated.
According to the owner of one French transport company, the stolen fuel is poured for him at an additional cost of 12,000 euros annually. And this despite the fact that the parking lot is fenced and equipped with video surveillance. Thieves still manage to break into fuel tanks. As a result, not only diesel fuel is lost, but also a lot of time due to downtime during the repair of the fuel tank.
The new Fuel Theft Alarm on Scania trucks should stop thieves. And so that they do not even try to do their vile deed, a special warning sticker on the presence of electronic guards will be applied to the fuel tanks.
