On the other hand, its forecourt controller solution SiteOmat is one of the best and flexible solutions for all forecourt operations in retail and home base gas stations. It can manage both wet and dry product sales on the forecourt and is a complete station automation solution with and without a POS.

Orpak_SiteOmat_tanks_screenThe one of the most important feature, which differs SiteOmat from other Forecourt Controller solutions, is its ready to use Vehicle Identification Systems (VIS) support. It can work with Orpak FuelOmat system devices like Turpak PumpOmat Forecourt Controller Software.

Another important feature is its TLG (Tank Level Gauging) or in other words ATG (Automatic Tank Gauging) support for well-known ATG producers. By this way, you can monitor and manage both pumps and tanks in one software.
