Temperature variations can affect LNG density, potentially impacting measurement. Dispensers use mass flow meters and temperature sensors to continuously compensate for these changes.
Insulated hoses, cryogenic pumps, and vapor return systems minimize heat ingress, ensuring the fuel remains in liquid form during transfer. Calibration routines correct minor discrepancies.
Temperature compensation ensures accurate metering, safe operation, and consistent customer billing, making it a critical feature for commercial LNG stations.
