Abstract
The invention is a pulsar lock device that can be installed on a variety of different gas dispensing pumps to prevent theft of gasoline. The pulsar lock device includes first and second covers that enable the device to be attached to a fuel dispenser frame. The covers also properly position the device adjacent to the pulsar. The pulsar lock further includes a cross bar that spans the distance between the first and second covers and provides support for a block. Advantageously, the block is positioned adjacent to the pulsar, thereby preventing access to the pulsar control board. As a result, the pulsar cannot be accessed and/or manipulated, thereby effectively preventing theft of gasoline by thieves.
