On the Ground in Peru: Rosco Brings Precision Fuel Meters to South American Mining Operations

Rosco's Peru team was recently on the ground at a major mine in South America, installing Precision Fuel Flow Meters designed to transform how the site manages haul truck fuel consumption. It's an exciting milestone that marks the continued expansion of advanced fuel management technology into global mining operations.

Why This Installation Matters

For mining sites operating large fleets, fuel is one of the largest controllable expenses on the balance sheet. Traditional methods often rely on manual logs or tank-level estimates, which can make it difficult to understand how efficiently fuel is actually being burned. This installation aims to close that visibility gap by providing real-time data directly from the fleet.

The Technology Behind the Install

The Technoton DFM Precision Fuel Flow Meters being installed are designed to integrate directly with the mine's existing fleet management system mining infrastructure. This means the site can gain deeper insights without requiring a full infrastructure overhaul.

Here's what the technology can help deliver:

• Real-Time Consumption Tracking: Monitor fuel consumption tracking as it happens, providing visibility into what's actually occurring across the fleet.

• Data-Backed Decision Making: Back up fuel-saving decisions with data from diesel flow meters rather than estimates.

• Cost and Emissions Benefits: Precise data can help cut costs while aiming to reduce emissions from mining operations.

  
  

What This Means for the Site

With these meters in place, the mine's mining equipment maintenance and operations teams may be better positioned to identify vehicles that could be underperforming or experiencing excessive diesel engine idling. This kind of insight can help reduce mining maintenance costs and support broader Green Fleet Solutions initiatives across the site.
