E85 Pumps Receive UL Certification

Today the Underwriters Laboratory (UL) issued certifications for two E85 dispensers, the Gilbarco Veeder-Root Encore® dispenser and the Dresser Wayne Ovation® Eco Fuel dispenser.

“We are pleased to be leading the development of the infrastructure required for alternative fuels, including increased use of ethanol,” said Chad Johnson, marketing manager for Encore dispensers at Gilbarco Veeder-Root. “The Encore S Flexible Fuel dispensers for E85 provide our customers with the same innovative, money-making features and durability they enjoy with the gasoline models.”

"As alternative fuels become more widely accepted, we are developing the infrastructure necessary to support our retailers as they add these fuels to their product offerings," explains Scott Negley, director of Alternative Energy Products for Dresser Wayne. "Receiving UL approval for E85 is an important and exciting step in that direction."
