Better fuel management: Tank monitors save money and cut downtime and control costs

Remote tank monitors are being installed across worksites, with sensors transmitting real-time fuel levels to digital platforms for precise inventory management by fuel end-users.
For many operators, fuel runouts cause costly downtime—$350 an hour and over $2,500 daily, with a typical truck losing $8,400 annually, prompting better tracking.
Auto-Fill feature and integrations with GPS fleet trackers and inventory/accounting systems automate refills, while fuel distributors report monitoring cuts emergency deliveries by 20 to 30%.
Businesses gain the visibility to avoid runouts and reallocate staff, as customers receive fuel when needed and deliveries become more efficient, reducing unnecessary trips for fleets, construction and agricultural operations.
Extended battery life and satellite connectivity promise greater reliability for remote jobsites, while predictive analytics will forecast runouts using usage patterns and weather to schedule refills proactively.
