Key Features

The IFPD 1300 combines intelligent control, robust material selection, and a spill‑containment design to deliver safe, hands‑off DEF filling. Its advanced controller and safety features ensure reliable operation while protecting your facility and the environment.

20‑Gallon Spill Containment Basin: The system is equipped with an integrated containment basin capable of capturing up to 20 gallons (75.7 liters) of DEF in the event of an unexpected spill during the filling process. This built‑in secondary containment helps protect the surrounding area from fluid exposure and simplifies cleanup, supporting environmental compliance and workplace safety.
Automated Overfill Protection via Actuated Butterfly Valve: To prevent tank overfills, the IFPD 1300 incorporates a 316L stainless steel actuated butterfly valve that automatically closes the port when the connected storage tank reaches its maximum fill level. This automation eliminates the risk of human error during manual filling and provides reliable protection against costly fluid overflow incidents.
Rugged NEMA 4X Stainless Steel Enclosure: Housed in a 304 stainless steel cabinet rated NEMA 4X, the system offers superior protection against corrosion, windblown dust, splashing water, and hose‑directed washdowns. This rugged construction ensures reliable performance in demanding indoor and outdoor industrial environments, from dusty loading bays to rain‑exposed bulk storage areas.
Multi‑Tank Management Capability: The system automation controller can manage Diesel Exhaust Fluid distribution for up to four connected storage tanks. By utilizing actuated valves, the controller directs fluid to the appropriate tank while monitoring respective tank levels. This feature makes the IFPD 1300 an ideal solution for facilities with multiple DEF storage tanks requiring replenishment from a single fill point.
Intelligent System Automation Controller: The programmable touchscreen controller allows for fully automated and customizable operation. It features an intuitive interface for local programming, an alarm history log for troubleshooting, and communication capabilities (Modbus, TCP/IP, LAN). This intelligence allows the system to operate hands‑off, routing DEF precisely where and when needed.
Heavy‑Duty Industrial Construction with Stainless Steel Plumbing: From the 2‑inch or 3‑inch Cam & Groove inlet to the 3‑inch NPT female outlet, the system utilizes 316L stainless steel for all fluid contact surfaces. This material choice ensures long‑term chemical compatibility with DEF, prevents corrosion, and maintains fluid purity throughout the transfer process.
Optional Audible and Visual Beacon & Dry Break Fill Coupler: For enhanced operational awareness, the system can be equipped with an optional audible and visual beacon to provide immediate alerts during filling operations. A dry break fill coupler is also available as an option to minimize fluid loss and contamination during hose connection and disconnection.
Seamless External System Integration: The system automation controller is equipped with Modbus, TCP/IP, LAN, and internet capability. This allows the IFPD 1300 to directly communicate with external building management systems (BMS), SCADA platforms, or a network operations center, enabling remote monitoring, control, and data logging. Email and SMS maintenance alerts can be configured to notify personnel of system status or required service.

Applications

Fleet Maintenance Facilities: Ideal for central DEF distribution points, the IFPD 1300 ensures a steady and safe supply for a fleet of trucks, buses, or heavy‑duty vehicles returning to the depot. The spill containment basin and automated overfill protection eliminate mess and risk during high‑frequency filling operations.
Industrial Generator Installations: Critical for standby power systems at data centers or hospitals, the IFPD 1300 provides a secure fill point for Diesel Exhaust Fluid used in generator SCR systems. Automated port shutoff ensures the generator's DEF tank is never overfilled during extended power outages.
Rail and Locomotive Servicing: Well‑suited for rail yards where locomotives require rapid and reliable DEF refilling. The system can be integrated into existing fueling infrastructure to streamline the servicing process while preventing fluid spills on the ground.
Marine Vessels: Effective for large marine diesel engines equipped with SCR aftertreatment. The IFPD 1300 automates the transfer of DEF from a bulk storage tank to a day tank, ensuring the main engine always has a sufficient supply for emissions control during long voyages.
Construction and Mining Operations: Suitable for remote job sites with heavy earthmoving equipment. The system can be installed as part of a mobile or temporary refueling station to provide on‑demand DEF to multiple machines, with spill protection built in.
Agricultural Operations: Valuable for large farming operations with a fleet of tractors and harvesters. The system can be integrated into a central fuel island, allowing for one‑stop refueling and DEF filling, increasing operational efficiency while reducing environmental risk.

The IFPD 1300 is specifically designed and constructed for use with Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF). All wetted components are 316L stainless steel to ensure long‑term chemical compatibility and corrosion resistance. The system is not approved for use with fuels or fluids that have a flash point below 100°F (37.8°C).

A NEMA 4X enclosure provides the highest level of protection in its class. It is weather‑resistant, protecting internal components against rain, sleet, snow, and ice. Importantly, the "X" rating also indicates it is corrosion‑resistant, making it essential for environments where the system may be exposed to chemicals, salt spray, or high humidity.

The system features an integrated 20‑gallon (75.7 liter) containment basin located beneath the fill connection area. In the event of an unexpected spill or drips during hose connection or disconnection, the basin captures the fluid, preventing it from reaching the ground. This built‑in secondary containment supports environmental compliance and simplifies cleanup.

Yes. The system automation controller includes multiple communication protocols, including Modbus, TCP/IP, LAN, and standard internet capability. This allows the IFPD 1300 to be directly integrated as a node on your network for remote monitoring and control. The controller can also be configured to send email and SMS maintenance alerts.

The system is equipped with an automatic port shutoff mechanism consisting of a 316L stainless steel actuated butterfly valve. The system automation controller monitors the level of the connected storage tank and closes the valve immediately when the tank reaches its programmed full level. This automation eliminates the risk of human error and prevents costly fluid overflow incidents.

The system automation controller can manage up to four connected DEF storage tanks. By utilizing actuated valves, the controller can automatically distribute fluid to the appropriate tank while monitoring each tank's level. This makes the IFPD 1300 an ideal solution for facilities requiring replenishment of multiple DEF tanks from a single, convenient fill location.
