Fluid management systems TMS smart & oil management systems for the car workshop

Digital fluid management systems from Tecalemit โ€“ from the RFID transponder and TMS smart meter through gateway and software to the complete oil management central unit for 4โ€“10 oil types. Mobile oil dispensing units (LubeMobil, DrumMobil) with integrated TMS smart metering technology, optionally calibratable (MID).

TMS smart โ€“ a modular system

The Tecalemit TMS smart system connects RFID transponders (โ‚ฌ17/each) with dispensing meters, a gateway and software to form a complete workshop fluid management: every oil dispensing is recorded per driver or per job and logged in the TMS smart Control software. Repeaters (โ‚ฌ324) extend the ZigBeeยฎ range in large halls.

Mobile oil dispensing units

The LubeMobil 70 (60 L, 5 l/min, from โ‚ฌ2,785) for smaller workshops, the DrumMobil 200 (for 200 L drums, 10 l/min, from โ‚ฌ3,528) for a higher throughput. All with an integrated TMS smart meter for engine and gear oil. Calibratable MID variants available for billing to customers.

Oil management central unit

The TKS IV (4 oil types, from โ‚ฌ2,176) and TMS III (5 or 10 oil types, from โ‚ฌ4,042) as stationary central units for central oil management โ€“ with pulse-generator inputs for flow meters, pump control and a graphic or text display. MID-calibratable and non-calibratable versions available.

Calibratable or non-calibratable?

For internal consumption recording (cost centres, fleet), a non-calibratable solution is sufficient. For billing oil to customers or for legally compliant invoicing, a MID-calibratable version (DrumMobil PPe/EPe, TMS III MID) is required by law.

The right fluid management system for your workshop

๐Ÿ”ง

Small workshop โ€“ entry level

For workshops with 1โ€“3 oil types and few mechanics: TMS smart meter (โ‚ฌ1,599) as a single dispensing unit + TMS smart gateway (โ‚ฌ1,269) + RFID transponders (โ‚ฌ17/mechanic). All dispensing is assigned via RFID identification, without a complete central unit.

๐Ÿ“ฆ

Mobile oil dispensing โ€“ wheeled

For workshops that dispense oil flexibly at different lifting platforms: LubeMobil 70 with TMS smart (from โ‚ฌ2,785, 60 L, 5 l/min) for smaller quantities or DrumMobil 200 with TMS smart (from โ‚ฌ3,528, 200 L drum, 10 l/min) for a higher throughput โ€“ wheeled, ready for immediate use.

๐Ÿญ

Stationary multi-type management

For workshops with 4โ€“10 oil types at fixed dispensing points: TKS IV central unit (4 types, from โ‚ฌ2,176) or TMS III (5โ€“10 types, from โ‚ฌ4,042) โ€“ controls pumps, records flow meters, displays consumption per oil type. With DMS integration via the TMS smart Control software.

๐Ÿงพ

Customer billing โ€“ calibratable

For the legally compliant billing of oil on customer invoices: DrumMobil 200 PPe or EPe (MID-calibratable, โ‚ฌ3,899) or TMS III MID central unit (โ‚ฌ4,042). The MID approval is valid throughout the EU and permits billing by actual consumption to customers.

๐Ÿ”—

DMS integration & job data

For full integration into the dealer management system (e.g. Autodata, ADP, R+W): TMS smart Control software pro (โ‚ฌ1,800) + USB RFID read and write station with job information (โ‚ฌ612) โ€“ oil dispensing is booked directly to jobs, job information is written to the transponder.

๐Ÿ“ก

Large halls โ€“ signal boosting

When the distance between the TMS smart meters and the gateway is more than 30โ€“40 m or concrete walls impair the radio connection: use the TMS smart repeater (โ‚ฌ324) as a ZigBeeยฎ signal booster. Status lights show the connection status immediately โ€“ simple configuration without IT knowledge.

Frequently asked questions about fluid management systems

A fluid management system automatically records every oil dispensing in the workshop โ€“ which mechanic, which oil type, what quantity, for which job. Without a system, oil is often not booked to workshop jobs, or booked inaccurately โ€“ this leads to material losses of typically 15โ€“25% of oil consumption. With an FMS, all dispensing is recorded seamlessly, booked to jobs and can be invoiced to the customer. The return on investment is usually achieved within 6โ€“18 months at car workshops with several mechanics.
TMS smart is a modern, wireless system (ZigBeeยฎ radio) with RFID identification โ€“ individual meters are connected to the gateway by radio, no cable laying needed. Suitable for flexible setups and retrofittable installations. TKS IV and TMS III are classic, wired central units for stationary multi-type management โ€“ more rugged for continuous operation, 4 to 10 oil types at fixed dispensing points, with their own display and direct pump control.
MID stands for the Measuring Instruments Directive โ€“ the EU directive for measuring instruments. A MID-calibratable device is officially tested and approved for the legally compliant measurement of liquid quantities used for billing purposes to third parties. In the workshop this means: if you bill oil by quantity on the customer invoice, a MID-approved measuring device is required by law. For internal consumption recording (cost centres, fleet), a non-calibratable device is sufficient.
Each mechanic receives an RFID transponder tag (โ‚ฌ17) as a key fob or card. Before each oil dispensing, the mechanic holds the transponder to the TMS smart meter โ€“ the system identifies the user and optionally asks for the job number. Only then is the oil dispensing released. All data (mechanic, quantity, oil type, time) is transmitted via ZigBeeยฎ to the gateway and stored in the TMS smart Control software. The USB RFID read/write station additionally allows job information to be written to the transponder.
ZigBeeยฎ is an energy-saving short-range radio network protocol (IEEE 802.15.4) developed for industrial sensor applications. In the TMS smart system, meters connect wirelessly to the gateway. The typical range is 30โ€“50 metres line of sight โ€“ in halls with concrete walls or across several floors the range may be reduced. The TMS smart repeater (โ‚ฌ324) boosts the signal and bridges larger distances or obstacles. Several repeaters can be used per gateway.
Yes โ€“ the TMS smart Control software pro (โ‚ฌ1,800) offers interfaces for connection to common dealer management systems. Oil dispensing is then booked directly to workshop jobs โ€“ the mechanic scans or enters the job number, and the booking is made automatically in the DMS. For bidirectional communication (writing job data to the transponder), the USB RFID read/write station with job information (โ‚ฌ612) is required. Please coordinate the compatibility with your specific DMS system with us before purchasing.
