Sorin Ilinca
“The FuelKeep is off good quality & arrived next day”
Jagelo Haulage
“I did have a trial of a FuelKeep and so far happy with it, was as easy to fit and is as good quality as higher cost anti siphons…
Should this cost £32.50 I do feel its fair price and value for money.”
Roland Ager

Fly By Nite Undertake Diesel Tank Alarm Install

Day complete of first install for Fly By Nite Conferences in Redditch

The TankGuard Fuel Tank Alarm installed on some BIG fuel tanks across the fleet.

Fly By Nite’s specialised vehicles and dedicated drivers are trusted to deliver by some of the biggest names in the Music, Entertainment, Corporate and Exhibition industries, located in Redditch, close to Junction 3 of the M42.

With the trucks crossing all Europe, Richard Brown opted to protect the twin tanks on each truck with the aide automotive TankGuard Fuel Alarm.

Tank Guard has a sophisticated sensor fitted externally in a discreet location on the outside of the fuel tank. If thieves attempt to remove the locked cap, or jemmy out the sender unit or in any way attack the tank then the Tank Guard will alarm

TankGuard Alarms with 113 decibals when those #fuel pests hang around the truck diesel tank

Do We Protect Against HGV Fuel Thieves or not?

aide automotive have been marketing and selling HGV / Commercial Vehicle fuel protection products for 20 years, we see increasing negativity on using anti siphon devices to protect the diesel fuel tank on a truck.

A recent remark was “anti-siphoning devices are a waste of time, you fit them and the bandits drill your diesel tank”

We agree anti siphon devices are not the be and end all to protect a commodity like HGV fuel, but what is?

To protect against any theft the owner has to create security / obstacles to prevent the thief from achieving their aim, instead of negativity to available protection aids and just ignoring the problem, look at the best way to help secure your property! Ignorance will inevitably breed thieves to repeat the act and look for easy targets!

In our 20 years marketing HGV diesel protection we have never had a call saying, “they drilled my tank!” We do have, “they just ripped out the sender unit” or “they just smashed the ASD”. So, the question is, how much is this commodity important to you? To lose a full tank for many is important to protect, also the follow-on inconvenience. So, if you think they will attack the tank, install an alarm, if they siphon fuel while a driver is parked, an Anti-Siphon Device? But overall a starting point is the “padlock” of an Anti-Siphon Device on the filler neck for many….

 
If not, then further protection aides like theTruck Tank Alarm “TankGuard” or Sender Unit Covers to protect the costly rip out of this item.

With this we have a SPECIAL Sample offer of the FuelKeep Anti Siphon Device!

Take a Sample at delivery cost only to prove the durability & quality of this Superb low cost ASD!
