The available documents do not support calling an entire brand “E10 compatible.” This comparison summarizes three sources for specific product lines; it does not verify installed equipment or replace its nameplate, manual, approvals or component review.
What three product documents state
Wayne Select retail
Wayne’s brochure, dated June 4, 2026, distinguishes gasoline blends up to E10 under the base C-UL-US approval, up to E40 for EC remote models, and E85 only with the specified EC remote option and its special components. The brochure lists U.S. Weights and Measures separately, with different limits; it is not a Panama approval or a statement about every Wayne dispenser. See the Wayne Select retail brochure.
Gilbarco Encore and Eclipse
The MDE-3893V manual, March 2026 edition describes the blending option for combining E85 with gasoline or gasohol up to E10 to produce an intermediate blend. It also says the hose used for E11–E85 must not dispense standard E10 gasoline or gasohol. This instruction applies to the blending configurations described in the manual; it is not a general statement about every Encore or Eclipse.
Tokheim Quantium FS
Dover Fueling Solutions’ Quantium FS data sheet, dated February 24, 2026, lists gasoline blends up to 85% ethanol for the FS family. It does not extend that statement to other Tokheim families or verify the accessories, revision or fuel path of a particular unit.
What to verify at the station
Record the exact brand, model, serial number, configuration, revision and part numbers. Review the dispenser, hose, nozzle, swivel, breakaway, valve, filter, meter and seals separately. Link each component to the data sheet, manual or approval that actually covers it. If identification is missing or the document does not cover the unit, the result is pending; do not infer it from the brand.
Decision and Panama context
Classify each finding as supported by a document, restricted by an explicit instruction or pending evidence. The sheets summarized here have different scopes and markets, so their percentages are not a performance comparison and do not equal local authorization. Check the Panama E10 status record before linking a technical review to a date or investment.
A useful recommendation identifies the unit, cites the document edition and keeps components requiring confirmation visible.
