Caught how? They don’t look caught
caught on camera, not arrested.
How does a fuel tracker work?
Stop exposing our ES, nkt!
@Okwonkwo when,@Meria Mata said that trucks have fuel trackers,he did not necessrily mean that all truck have fuel trackers. And in any case,people always find ways around such systems especially so if their kitunguu is under threat.
The only practical fuel tracking I know that works involves establishing actual fuel consumption (disregard what manufacturers tell you) per truck over a given period of time and basing your fueling regimen on the resultant figures. And this is where you have one driver one truck policy. That way,all factors are taken into consideration.
Hio ndio hufanya waweke free pale sachangwan. Results unajua.
basics, you can narrow them into three categories, resistive , capacitative and ultrasonic
however none of them are volume sensors, they are all level sensors meaning they have slight weaknesses, however if you combine them with the info from J1939 FMS, you get a completely fool proof system because J1939 will give you real-time fuel consumption ratio, quantity consumed by the engine, then you can delta the two data sets . Also on the j1939 you can get (depending of make and model) fuel levels 1 and 2 will give you complimentary real-time volumes on the tanks from the ECU

I assume that the fuel tank was leaking hence the need to transfer fuel to containers. If my assumption doesn’t hold, yours don’t hold either…
That’s their business!!
Fuel tank ndio ATM ya truck driver.
Case closed.

See his reply above.
Hawa jamaa njaa ndio mingi.Huoni ata afia hawana.
How do you move fuel from a spare tank to the main fuel tank if they aren’t inter connected?
You use a hose pipe.
Very well for modernized fleets.
Can these systems be integrated into old trucks?
Im thinking of the old Leylands operated by Rongai Transport.
yes, actually i know that the pilot projects for the LLS sensors in kenya were done on rongai fleet, i remember seeing even digital tachs on those old trucks around then
lakini sisi kawa madreve ya trele ya kenia, twaomba muwachane nasi pia tunukishe kitunguu
mwaona tunanyanyaswa na kila mtu mpaka malaya maungu

Sisi peasants Isuzu HTR ya local rounds iko na dipstick ya mbao. Calibrated kwanza. Bora ujue raundi ni ngapi zimekwendwa :D:D:D
