Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2243995A1] The device has a buried liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) storage tank (1) containing an LPG liquid phase (2) surmounted by an LPG vapor phase (3). A distributing apparatus (6) is equipped with a flexible pipe on which a dispensing nozzle is connected. A central controller (8) is connected to a controller (44) for controlling a transfer pump (42) and an electro valve (45). A detection unit detects passage of current in an electric control circuit (9) to trigger an alarm and/or to control interruption of distribution of LPG in absence of current in the circuit.
