Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for identifying fluid to be supplied through one of a plurality of RFID-tagged fluid-supply hoses that selectively connect to a movable, RFID-tagged fluid container includes a fluid station including an antenna mount at a fixed location so that a fluid-container location is defined. An RFID reading unit is connected to an antenna on the mount. A controller reads the RFID tag of the movable fluid container positioned in the fluid-container location using the RFID reading unit and reads the RFID tag(s) attached to one or more of the fluid-supply hoses whose respective tag(s) are positioned in the antenna range. The controller then determines which of the plurality of fluid-supply hoses is positioned in the antenna range, so that the fluid in the fluid container is identified as the fluid to be supplied through the determined fluid-supply hose.
