ABSTRACT:
A fuel dispenser for delivering fuel to a user having a dispenser housing and a fuel delivery system including a storage tank, fuel delivery lines extending from the storage tank to the dispenser housing and a fuel pump. A hose extends from the dispenser housing between the fuel delivery line and includes a nozzle mounted on the hose end opposite the dispenser housing. A receptacle is positioned on the dispenser housing for storing the nozzle when not in use. The receptacle includes a sensor for detecting the presence of the nozzle within the receptacle. The sensor transmits a first signal to the fuel pump when the nozzle is removed from the receptacle resulting in the fuel pump being activated to allow for fuel to flow from the storage tank to the nozzle. The sensor sends a second signal when the nozzle is replaced in the receptacle resulting in deactivating the fuel pump.
