Patent ID: 6935356

Claim:
A method of installing a meter to measure the amount of fuel drawn from an underground storage tank and delivered to a plurality of fuel dispensers in a service station environment, comprising the steps of: fluidly coupling a submersible turbine pump to fuel in the underground storage tank; coupling a main fuel piping to said submersible turbine pump wherein said submersible turbine pump draws fuel from the underground storage tank and delivers the fuel to said main fuel piping; coupling a plurality of branch fuel pipings to the main fuel piping to receive fuel from the main fuel piping; coupling each of the plurality of branch fuel piping to an individual fuel dispenser among the plurality of fuel dispensers so that each of the plurality of fuel dispensers receives fuel from the main fuel piping; and placing a meter inline to said main fuel piping that measures the amount of fuel drawn by said submersible turbine pump from the underground storage tank and delivered to the plurality of branch fuel pipings.
