SmartFill Gen 3 — Intelligent Fuel Management for Victorian Businesses

Liquip Victoria supplies and installs SmartFill FMS Victoria solutions from its Derrimut facility. Whether you need a fuel management system Melbourne depot operators can access remotely or a fuel monitoring system farm Victoria agricultural businesses can use across multiple vehicles, our team can configure the system around your operation.

SmartFill Gen 3 fuel management system in Victoria combines a fuel controller Melbourne businesses can install at the dispensing point with online reporting tools. It supports the Victoria fleet fuel management requirements by providing secure access, transaction records, and tank monitoring. It can also operate as a diesel tracking system that Victoria fleets can use to understand where their fuel is going.

What Is SmartFill Gen 3?

SmartFill Gen 3 is an electronic fuel management and pump control system. It sits between the user and the fuel pump, requiring the driver or operator to identify themselves before fuel can be dispensed.

The system can record:

  • Who accessed the fuel

  • Which vehicle or machine received it

  • How many litres were dispensed

  • When the transaction occurred

  • Which tank or pump was used

  • Current tank levels when connected to compatible gauging equipment

A SmartFill FMS Victoria installation can replace manual logbooks and spreadsheets with digital transaction records. It provides electronic fuel dispensing control that Victoria businesses can use to reduce unauthorised access and improve fuel accountability.

Key SmartFill Gen 3 Features

Secure PIN, Card and Tag Access

Users can be identified using supported access methods such as:

  • Personal identification numbers

  • NFC cards

  • Driver tags

  • Vehicle tags

  • iButton devices

  • SmartTag vehicle identification

  • Compatible account cards

Driver Identification

Each driver can receive a unique access method. The system links the fuel transaction to that driver, helping managers identify who dispensed the fuel.

Vehicle and Equipment Identification

Drivers may be asked to select or identify the vehicle, truck, machine or equipment being refuelled. SmartTag can automate vehicle identification in compatible configurations.

Dispensing Records

Every authorised dispense creates a digital record. This can include:

  • Driver

  • Vehicle

  • Product

  • Pump

  • Site

  • Litres dispensed

  • Date and time

  • Odometer or hour-meter information, when entered or supported

Remote Web Access

The FMT web portal allows authorised users to view data from a phone or computer. Businesses can monitor tanks, review transactions, export reports and manage multiple sites remotely.

Tank-Level Monitoring

SmartFill can connect with SmartDip or compatible automatic tank gauging systems. This can provide:

  • Current tank levels

  • Low-stock warnings

  • Fuel delivery records

  • Tank reconciliation

  • High and low-level alerts

  • Remote tank visibility

Alerts

Depending on the system and tank gauge configuration, alerts may be created for:

  • Low tank levels

  • Unexpected fuel activity

  • Equipment going offline

  • Tank level changes

  • Other selected operating conditions

Rugged Construction

SmartFill Gen 3 is designed for outdoor fuel dispensing environments. Its practical interface helps drivers follow the required identification and dispensing process.

SmartFill System Integration

Self-Bunded Fuel Tanks

SmartFill can be fitted to the pump cabinet of a self-bunded tank. The system can work with the pump, meter and compatible tank gauge to provide access control and reporting.

Fuel Bowsers

The SmartFill fuel controller in Melbourne can be combined with fixed or mobile bowsers where the power supply, communications and equipment design are suitable.

240V AC Pumps

SmartFill can control compatible 240V AC pumps through an appropriately designed electrical system. Pump load, switching equipment and installation requirements must be checked before connection.

AdBlue Dispensers

A compatible system may be configured to record AdBlue dispensing as well as diesel. All AdBlue equipment must use materials that protect product purity.

Automatic Tank Gauges

SmartFill can integrate with SmartDip and select third-party tank-gauging equipment. The combination supports transaction reporting and tank-level reconciliation.

SmartFill Applications

  • Farms and Agricultural Businesses: An automated fuel dispensing system in Australia can record diesel issued to tractors, harvesters, generators, irrigation pumps and farm vehicles.

  • Construction Companies: Construction businesses can use SmartFill at a main depot or project site. Fuel can be recorded against excavators, loaders, cranes, generators and other equipment.

  • Government Departments: Government fleets can use transaction records to improve reporting, budgeting and vehicle accountability. Multiple sites can be monitored through the web portal.

  • Local Councils: A diesel tracking system Victoria council uses can allocate fuel records to individual vehicles and operating teams.

  • Mining, Quarrying and Industrial Sites: SmartFill can support controlled refuelling for large equipment and multiple users. Access methods and reporting can be configured around the site’s operating process.

Reporting, Reconciliation and Business Integration

Fuel Reconciliation

When SmartFill is connected to compatible tank gauging equipment, the business can review:

  • Fuel deliveries

  • Dispensed fuel

  • Current stock

  • Expected stock

  • Unexplained differences

  • Possible leaks or unrecorded use

This gives businesses stronger control than using dispensing records alone.

Driver and Vehicle Reports

Reports can show fuel use by:

  • Driver

  • Vehicle

  • Machine

  • Pump

  • Tank

  • Site

  • Date range

  • Product

Cost Centre Allocation

Drivers, vehicles and sites can be organised to support internal cost allocation. Exported transaction data can be assigned to departments, projects, contracts or operating locations.

Data Export and ERP Integration

SmartFill data can be exported for accounting, reporting and business analysis. Before promising direct ERP integration, Liquip Victoria should confirm:

  • The ERP or accounting platform

  • Required file format

  • Available SmartFill export options

  • Whether an API or third-party connector is required

  • How often data needs to be transferred

  • Which fields need to be mapped

Direct integration is not automatic for every ERP platform. In many cases, exported transaction files can be imported into another business system.

Compliance and Record Keeping

SmartFill records can support internal fuel controls, tax reporting and operational reviews. However, installing SmartFill does not, by itself, meet every legal, tax, or environmental requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SmartFill Gen 3 and how does it work?

SmartFill Gen 3 is an electronic fuel management system that controls access to fuel dispensing equipment and records every fuel transaction automatically. Users are identified by PIN code or proximity card, and the system logs the date, time, quantity dispensed, vehicle ID, and operator for every fill. Data is accessible via pin code, proximity card or key fob.

What types of fuel can SmartFill Gen 3 manage?

SmartFill Gen 3 can be used to manage dispensing of diesel, petrol, AdBlue, and other fluids. Multiple tanks and dispensers can be connected to a single SmartFill controller, allowing centralised management of all fluid types at a site. This makes it particularly suitable for fleet depots that store both diesel and AdBlue.

Is SmartFill Gen 3 suitable for farms and rural properties?

Yes. SmartFill Gen 3 is widely used on large farming properties and agribusiness operations to track fuel usage across multiple operators, vehicles, and paddock activities. The system can operate in remote locations without internet connectivity (using local data storage with periodic uploads) and is compatible with solar power setups.

Can SmartFill Gen 3 generate reports for accounting and compliance?

Yes. SmartFill Gen 3 includes cloud-based reporting software that produces detailed transaction reports, daily/weekly/monthly fuel summaries, cost centre allocation reports, and exception alerts. Reports can be exported in CSV format for import into accounting software. This makes fuel reconciliation and fleet cost management significantly easier.

Does Liquip Victoria install and support SmartFill Gen 3 across Victoria?

Yes. Liquip Victoria is an authorised SmartFill installer and service provider in Victoria. We can install SmartFill Gen 3 as a retrofit to existing fuel storage and dispensing equipment, or as part of a new turnkey fuel system. We also provide training, ongoing support, and system configuration services.
