  2. Fuel Control for Fleets with CAN Bus and Sensors

Fuel control for fleets using CAN bus and tank level sensors

Monitor the fuel consumption and fuel level of every vehicle with objective data. Vigilo combines CAN bus data reading, sensors and GPS tracking to detect deviations, improve efficiency and reduce losses.

What's included
  • Fuel data linked to every journey

    The platform links consumption, fuel level and events to the route, position and time. This makes it easier to analyse why a vehicle uses more fuel, identify idling periods and compare similar units.

  • CAN bus data and level sensors

    Depending on the vehicle, fuel data can be read from CAN bus or FMS. Where greater accuracy is needed, or the vehicle does not provide suitable data, compatible level sensors can be installed.

  • Detection of refuelling, drops and anomalies

    Changes in fuel level are shown visually so you can identify refuelling, consumption and unexpected drops. Alerts help you investigate possible fuel extraction, leaks or misuse.

  • Reports that cut costs

    Managers can compare consumption by distance, vehicle, period or type of operation. These reports make it possible to set indicators, spot inefficient habits and check the results of the measures taken.

  • Fuel, driving and maintenance

    Consumption does not depend only on the litres put in the tank. Idling, RPM, speed, routes, tyre pressure and maintenance all affect the result. Vigilo brings these factors together to provide a more complete analysis.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about fuel monitoring

Does the system detect fuel theft?

It can detect abnormal variations and provide the information needed to investigate possible fuel extraction, depending on the accuracy and configuration of the installation.

Is CAN bus better than a sensor?

It depends on the vehicle and the level of accuracy required. In some cases both sources are combined.

Can I see how many litres are left?

Yes, when the data source and the calibration allow the level to be converted into litres.

Are alerts generated?

Yes. Notifications can be set up for specific events or variations.

Is the data linked to the route?

Yes. Fuel data can be analysed alongside positions, journeys and activity times.

In summary

How does Vigilo help you control fuel?

Vigilo combines CAN bus, FMS or level sensor data to analyse consumption, refuelling, variations and possible fuel extraction. The accuracy and the data available depend on the vehicle and the measurement method used.

  • Comparison of consumption, distance, engine hours and idling.
  • Detection of level variations and configurable events.
  • Reports by vehicle, period, route or activity.
  • Integrates with maintenance, driving data and GPS tracking.
