The Mini Fuel Station is the best seller in BAUER's product range of atmospheric suction machines. Although it was only launched on the market in 1997 more than 100 units had already gone into operation by the year 2000.

The MFS series is a reasonably priced starter model for CNG vehicle fuel stations: with reasonable acquisition and maintenance costs, compact dimensions, it is reliable and maintenance friendly.

In keeping with market demands and as part of its on-going product maintenance and improvement BAUER revised the concept of the MFS series in 2000, a new PLC control system was developed and the compressor system was integrated in a compact concrete structure.

Due to the newly developed compressor and filling control system a basic/peak load control system with redundancy operation can easily be attained in the event of the system being extended.

Furthermore thanks to the optimal concrete enclosure of the triple storage rack tank the ex-protection zone can be minimised by using an additional gas leakage sensor. This is an important decision criterion in particular in the inner city area where installation space is at a minimum.
