Veeder-Root Integration: Gateways, Services, Resources

Intro to Veeder-Root

Gilbarco Veeder-Root is one of the most experienced providers of fuel tank monitoring systems in the world. It supplies automatic tank gauging and fuel management systems, including the Red Jacket brand of submersible pumps and pressurized line leak detectors. All their products use the protocol language Veeder-Root TLS to communicate. To integrate a Veeder-Root product to an existing network, a protocol converter (a gateway) must be implemented. Often, Veeder-Root products are integrated into BACnet, Modbus, or LonWorks Network.

The Veeder-Root TLS protocol can be used to connect to suitably enabled Veeder-Root Devices. This is a serial protocol using an RS232 port. Since the protocol is nodeless, only one Veeder Device can be connected to port one at integration.

The Chipkin Veeder-Root Gateway, CAS 2700-02B, is the perfect solution to integrate any Veeder Root Panel. It can poll Veeder-Root TLS Panels for status, real-time, and configuration data. The Gateway can be used to read Tank Inventory, System Status, Tank Alarms, Sensor Alarms and more. The Veeder Gateway serves data from a TLS panel as Modbus, BACnet or Web data. It also requires minimal configuration and can be considered a plug and play component of a system.
