EA PROJECTS has recently installed a control system designed
specifically for LPG storage/loading across Countrywide Farmers (CWF)
depot network.
Previously running with mechanical presets and manual tank
gauges, this gave very little traceability when attempting to reconcile
overall LPG stock movements.
In consultation with CWF, EA Projects designed a system which
allows the recording of deliveries into each site from third party

stock movements at each site, as well as the ability to get live stock
information from their central office, enhancing overall stock control.
