Abstract

An automatic changeover valve switches fluid communication between a fluid outlet and either a first cylinder or a second cylinder, wherein the first and second cylinders hold one or more fluids, such as a liquified gas fuel. A detection device detects acceleration information of the automatic changeover valve. A processing unit analyzes the detected acceleration information and determines when the detected acceleration information indicates that the automatic changeover valve is switching the fluid communication of the gas fuel outlet from the first cylinder to the second cylinder. An alert to a remote computing system is generated of the changeover event.
