The tank must be well ventilated. The tank ventilation
line (1) must have an inner diameter of 12 mm (1/2").
Run
the hose with an upward bend inboard to prevent
water entry.
The deck filler (2) must be designed such that it
accepts hose connections of at least 50 mm (2.0")
diameter. The hose between the deck filler and the
tank must overlap the hose connections at both ends
by at least 75 mm (3.0") and be secured using two
hose clamps at each end. The hose clamps must be
made of corrosion free material.
No common ground conductor for the fuel tank, fuel
filler etc. is normally required for diesel installations.
However, regional authorities may require this for all
boats.
IMPORTANT!
Install the filler and ventilation hoses so that no U-
bends (3) are formed where fuel is able to collect.
IMPORTANT!
The fuel filler and ventilation must be installed such that
overfilling is prevented and that fuel cannot enter the
air inlets.
