Please email product news to editor@erpecnews.com revolutionary secondary containment system Franklin Fueling Systems (FFS) has announced the launch of ‘Gemini’ which they are calling “a true revolution in fittings design for secondary contained pipe systems”. Gemini provides simpler and safer secondary containment installation as well as materials and installation cost savings. Gemini works by splitting the secondary fitting into two pieces, enabling the installer to slide the secondary fitting away so that the primary joint can be fully welded, pressure-tested and inspected before welding secondary fittings. This process makes installing secondary containment more efficient and provides up to a 50 percent reduction in primary and secondary fittings, further reducing the number of parts, welds, time and overall cost. A dedicated website has been launched to support Gemini, featuring in-depth product information, multi-lingual literature downloads and videos introducing this innovative new product. Visit www.franklinfueling.com/gemini Torex and Gilbarco veeder-root join forces Torex has announced a new partnership with Gilbarco Vedeer-Root to offer customers the latest in integrated Outdoor Payment Terminal (OPT) technology. For the first time, Torex EPoS technology is being linked to Gilbarco Veeder-Root’s modern and flexible stand-alone FlexPay NP3 OPT. As rising fuel prices increase industry competition and the risk of drive-offs, FlexPay NP3 OPT technology provides a pre- pay option. The OPT can also be used to create a “fast lane” on sites, that allows fuel-only customers to quickly re-fuel, pay and leave, thus increasing throughput. FlexPay NP3 can also be used in unmanned mode, allowing drivers to purchase fuel 24/7 when the forecourt shop might be closed. The technology can be installed in remote rural areas where staffed forecourt sites might not be an option.
