Main Elements
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| PCB | Fuellox PCB |
| Power Supply | Meanwell 240V to 12V DC Power Supply + Connectors and fuse |
| Relay | 2 channel relay with 12V DC Coil |

Note the DIN rail may come with addional connectors. In some cases the relay may be used in conjunction with or replaced by a high current contactor.
2.3.1 Preparation
Place the template onto the surface where the Fuellox Facia will be mounted.
Check to make sure you have the correct template, and verify the hole sizes match the studs on your parts.
Template A3
Note: Newer model facia systems have 6mm studs and holes
2.2.3 Mounting
Fix the Facia panel to the tank using a silicon type sealant.
Bolt down the 4 main studs using a suitable washer and a nylex nut.
Install the Fuellox Enclosure to the mount studs and scure that with washers and nylex nuts.

Parts Detail
Carefully review the isntallation drawing and details prior to installation.
Parts needed
- Main Isolator
- Dual Channel EStop, Normally Open + Normally Closed
- Nozzle switch
- Hall Effect or Reed Flow meter
- 240V AC Pump
- M6 Stainless nylex nuts and washers x 6
- Outdoor grade silicon water proofing
Mount the Facia panel
Using the Facia Template drill the holes and mount the facia panel. Check if your variant needs 6 or 12mm holes for the mounting studs.
Apply silicon to the rear face of the facia panel and mount to a clean and dry surface
Fix the 4 (permitere) mounting studs to the tank.
Mount the facia enclosure to the remaining (inner) studs.
Screw down and tighten all 6 nuts.
Install the Antenna
Install the Fuellox Antenna in a high locaion, with minimal interferrence to the refuelling area. Direct line of sight is required for optimal perofrmance.
Ensure the cable is not twisted, crimpled or damaged.
Route the cable through a suitable gland, and any holes are located in a weather shieelded location. Do not create a water ingress path when installing the antenna cable.
Install dispensing equipment
Install and mount the pump, flow meter, pipework hoses and nozzle.
Pressure test and confirm the operation of the pumping equipment.
Fit and mount the nozzle switch in a position that is convenient to the refuelling operation. We recommend the Fuellox Facia and nozzle switch be in close proximity, preferabbly on the same face of the bund door/wall.
Hook up
Connect mains supply from the local isolator switch Connect the Pump power to the Fuellox according to the wiring schedule. Connect the Flow meter using a suitable sheilded cable. Wire in the EStop and Nozzle switch Connect the level probe. Be sure to create any bund penetrations in a dry area. Do not create a water ingress path.
