Fuel Conditioning Carts are systems designed for use in non-continuous, indoor applications where liquid test fuels need to be precisely temperature-controlled and exactly dispensed.







Fuel Service Carts are designed for dual application-- both where fuels need to be drained from test vehicles, and where precise amounts of test fuel need to be dispensed into vehicles or machines that are not in the immediate area.


All Fuel Handling Carts conform to all applicable Federal EPA and California ARB regulations. All electrical components within these Carts are enclosed in Class I, Division 2 (Group D) explosion-proof devices as defined by the National Electrical Code.

Optional equipment for these units include a Vapor Recovery fuel hose and dispensing nozzle to minimize the potential for fuel vapor release during the vehicle refueling process.

Fuel Conditioners

In its' standard configuration, the Webber EMI Model 107 FC Cart is designed to temperature-condition test fuels to any operator-selected temperature between 50 - 90°F and to precisely dispense fuel at that temperature via a conventional fuel dispensing nozzle. Using our 'closed system' design, temperature conditioning is accomplished with minimal loss of 'high end' hydrocarbon. This Cart's design allows fuel to be siphoned from an in-ground or external fuel storage container and also facilitates the transfer of fuel between two external fuel storage containers.

Our exclusive interface system allows an operator to quickly affix a standard 55-gallon drum of test fuel to the mobile drum dolly, which accompanies this Cart. Alternatively, this Cart can be ordered with a stainless steel tank, which also connects via this same interface. In either configuration, a specially constructed thermal jacket is included as standard equipment.

The FC Cart comes equipped with 6" polyurethane-molded tread swivel casters that allow for easy movement.



Fuel Conditioning Cart Controls

The FC Cart controls have been designed to be easy to use. Via this simple control panel, an operator can:

- monitor the digitally-displayed actual fuel temperature against the selected, digitally-displayed fuel set temperature;

- adjust the fuel flow-rate in gallons-per-minute (GPM) both for circulating through the Cart and for dispensing through the fuel nozzle;

- note the digitally-displayed, precise amount of fuel having been dispensed through the nozzle;

- activate the E-stop feature of the Cart, shutting down all the Cart's electrical systems.

Fuel Service Carts
Webber EMI Fuel Service (FS) Carts are designed to safely store and accurately dispense liquid fuels typically used in a vehicle test laboratory. These carts can be easily filled from any drum or other fuel storage container and then rolled to a vehicle. Using the self-filling suction system that comes as standard equipment on these Carts, these Carts also support quick ‘Drain & Fill’ of both Light and Heavy Duty test vehicles. (‘Drain & Fill’ refers to the process described in the CFR for removal of all fuel from a test vehicle’s fuel tank before accurately refilling the tank to precisely 40% of its capacity.) In both of these configurations, the Webber EMI Fuel Service Cart’s proven design and rugged construction provide easy operator use and excellent product durability.


The Webber EMI Light Duty FS Cart is designed for the operator – it is light in weight, easy to use, highly maneuverable and capable of ‘draining & filling’ any liquid test fuel. The cart can be easily filled from any drum or other fuel storage container and then rolled to a vehicle. (For easier maneuvering across rough surface grades, the Cart can be ordered with optional high pressure, inflatable pneumatic tires.)

As standard equipment, the Cart comes with a level indicator and a bottom-located drain plug in the 40- gallon fuel tank, and 8" hard rubber tires and a heavy-duty swivel caster with a foot-operated brake on the front wheel.

Heavy Duty Fuel Service Cart

The Webber EMI Heavy Duty FS Cart is designed to safely store and accurately dispense larger quantities of liquid test fuels.Like the smaller FS Cart, the Heavy Duty Cart can be easily filled from any drum or other fuel storage container and then rolled to a vehicle to dispense test fuel.

This Cart’s larger tank, motor and fuel delivery system address the specific needs associated with high fuel-demand testing. This Fuel Cart handles up to 60 gallons of fuel and comes with a larger capacity hose and nozzle.
