CleanFUEL USA gains UL listing for propane dispenser
The company’s Gilbarco Encore S liquefied petroleum gas retail fuel dispenser gains the distinction as an Underwriters Laboratories listing, which CleanFUEL officials say “signifies our commitment to exceeding customer expectations in alternative-fuel dispensing.”
GEORGETOWN, Texas — CleanFUEL USA has taken additional steps to meet the most rigorous standards for propane autogas refueling by gaining Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listing for the Gilbarco Encore S liquefied petroleum gas retail fuel dispenser.
UL is a global independent safety science company. CleanFUEL USA’s dispenser also holds National Conference on Weights and Measures approval.
CleanFUEL USA receives Encore 700 S and Encore S cabinets and electronics directly from Gilbarco, and it completes the autogas dispenser with UL-listed components.
Officials said the finished product results in a top-of-the-line autogas dispenser that is typically installed at retail settings with public access and controlled clientele. It features full retail capabilities for payment card industry compliance and is available as a single or dual-sided unit.
“As we continue to install autogas refueling stations throughout the world, we must take steps to validate our technology performance and safety,” said Curtis Donaldson, founder and managing partner of CleanFUEL USA. “Partnering with Gilbarco and adding a UL-listed dispenser to our product lineup signifies our commitment to exceeding customer expectations in alternative-fuel dispensing.”
CleanFUEL USA develops liquid propane fuel injection systems and manufactures propane autogas dispensers and refueling infrastructure.
