Fuel expands and contracts with temperature fluctuations, affecting both flow and measurement. Modern pumps incorporate temperature compensation systems that adjust readings to ensure accurate dispensing.
Additionally, pumps are constructed from materials that can withstand heat expansion and cold contraction without compromising integrity. Insulated components may be used in extreme climates to maintain consistent performance.
By managing temperature changes effectively, pumps maintain accuracy, prevent spills, and protect mechanical components from stress caused by thermal variation.
