The fuel dispensed from this pump meets the requirements of the Clean Air Act as part of a program to reduce CO pollution from motor vehicles. Diesel fuel for use in motor vehicles must: have a sulfur percentage, by weight, no greater than percent have a cetane index of at least 40 or a maximum aromatic content of 35 volume percent
Fuel Dispensers Diesel Flow Meter
Fuel dispensers are utilized to pump fluid fuels, for example, gas, diesel fuel, oil, or lamp fuel into a vehicle, air ship, stockpiling tank, or convenient compartment. Vaporous fuel dispensers may refuel hydrogen or syngas controlled vehicles or hardware, or essentially be utilized to move gasses starting with one area then onto the next.

Article 514 Motor Fuel Dispensing Facilities
Diesel fuel is a “combustible” liquid, not a flammable liquid. Therefore, a diesel dispensing area is nonclassified and electrical equipment and wiring is not required to comply with the stringent requirements of Chapter 5. But, it is common to wire diesel fuel dispensers adjacent to gasoline dispensers.
Diesel fuel dispensers as they relate to hazardous
The flash point of diesel fuel is 100°F or above; thus, the area involving diesel fuel is typically not a classified location. But if the conduit for the diesel dispenser passes through the Class I area around the gasoline dispenser, then the installation must comply with the sealing and wiring method requirements of Art. 501 ( Figure ).
