Fuel control via CAN bus

In most cases, installing a capacitive fuel level sensor on passenger cars is a difficult task. The design features of the body do not allow to cut the fuel level sensor into the fuel tank. In such cases on-board controllers of satellite monitoring GLONASS/GPS are connected to the CAN-bus of the vehicle.

The abbreviation CAN is formed from the word combination: Controller Area Network and literally translated as - a network of controllers.

Modern cars and trucks are equipped with CAN-buses. CAN-bus provides two-way communication with various devices, so that they can be controlled and instantly receive information about their status.

With the development of telematics technologies, CAN-based solutions for remote interaction with the vehicle have been developed. For example, for remote diagnostics, vehicle security and satellite monitoring.

Advantages of the controller:

▸Connects to any vehicle with a CAN bus
▸Minimal installation and maintenance costs
▸Complete information on vehicle operation
▸Does not interfere with the operation of standard equipment
▸Can be connected without interfering with the vehicle's contactor network
▸Remote adjustment and change of firmware
▸Technical support for the duration of operation
▸3 year warranty

Information on fuel consumption and level is transmitted to the satellite monitoring system from the vehicle's on-board computer via CAN-bus. The computer itself receives fuel data from the standard sensor installed in the tank by the manufacturer.

With the help of MONTRANS controller you can easily configure the information from various sensors to the monitoring system and analyze it with the help of electronic reports. For example, it is possible to receive data on opening/closing of doors, on the use of seat belts, on the temperature in the refrigerator.
