Production line fuel system 

The creation of a new production line at Jaguar Land Rover’s Solihull site involved building a new fuel farm to serve both the new line and a second production line.  

We designed and installed an electrical control system to work in conjunction with Franklin Fuelling Systems’ tank gauging and monitoring equipment to control the delivery of fuel from the new external tank farm to the Range Rover production line within the Land Rover factory.

The system monitors and controls petrol, diesel, arctic diesel and ethanol, which are dispensed at the final stage of production before vehicles move off the line for sale. The installation includes cabling, controls, submersible pumps, sub pump controllers, emergency stop controls, a sophisticated leak detection system and a mains changeover facility, enabling safe and consistent fuel delivery to both production lines.

We also provide a maintenance service to the plant, delivering 24/7 system monitoring and callout support which, helps eliminate costly production line downtime.
