SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION:
The vessel manufacturer must comply with the requirements of CFR 40 1060.202. Any questions can be directed to www.attwood.com
Failure to follow these instructions may result in accidental fuel system over-pressurization. Users must follow these instructions to ensure vessel function and operation
EMISSION-RELATED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Failing to follow these instructions when installing the Attwood
Integrated Fuel Demand Valves in a piece of nonroad equipment violates federal law (40 CFR 1068.105(b)), subject to fines or other penalties as described in the Clean Air Act.
FEATURES:
Attwood’s Integrated Fuel Demand Valve meets EPA regulations. The Fuel Demand Valve can be oriented in twelve (12) different positions providing optimal orientation. The Fuel Demand Valve also has a manual override built into the top.
REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION
•Pliers for removal and assembly of retainer clip
•Appropriate hose fitting (1/2" NPT)
•Marine-grade urethane-based sealant (Attwood #30106-6 recommended, DO NOT USE A SILICONE-BASED SEALANT)
•Wrench for fitting
LOCATION
•Mount of flat surface where risk of torsional loads being applied to the Integrated Fuel Demand Valve is minimal
•Locate in position where consumers will not kick or step on the valve
•A heat shield (99IFDVHS1) is recommended to protect against fire unless the Fuel Demand Valve passes USCG fire test in the as-installed position. If heat shield is required, see separate installation sheet.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.Locate built in Fuel Demand Valve aluminum base on tank
2.Remove clip and transport plug (Figure 1)
3.Install necessary barb fitting or anti-siphon valve (1/2" NPT, not supplied). Use thread sealant.
4.Torque up to 8 lb-ft where applicable. Do not over torque. Ensure sealing surface (interior of insert) is clean of debris
5.Remove shipping cover from valve assembly.
6.Lubricate O-ring with a petroleum based lubricant such as motor oil. Insert Fuel Demand Valve to predetermined orientation (Figure 2). Once inserted, apply slight downward pressure on Valve and install retainer clip fully into slot.
7.Once installed, apply slight upward pressure to Fuel Demand Valve to ensure it is locked into position.
8.Pressure test tank to ensure connection integrity, per CFR 33 183.580, at pressure of 3 psi for no less than 10 minutes. Inspect all connections for leak by method other than pressure decay.
9.If 99IFDVHSI is installed, align top hole with the top of the vent cap and snap in place. (Figure 3 & 4)
MANUFACTURER REQUIREMENTS
Manufacturer must determine required amount of anti-siphon protection for specific vessel configuration per CFR 33. Manufacturer must ensure that engine fuel distribution line vacuum requirements are met. See engine manufacturer for details.
The information below applies only to EPA CFR 40 1060.135. The vessel manufacturer is responsible to meet all additional regulatory labeling requirements including EPA, CARB, USCG and others as necessary. The below information is for reference only. The vessel manufacturer should refer to CFR 40 for complete labeling guidelines.
In order to meet the requirements of CFR 40 1060.135, the vessel must be labeled with respect to evaporative emissions in the following manner when installing certified components;
Excerpt from CFR 40 1060.135
(a) You must affix a permanent and legible label identifying each engine or piece of equipment before introducing it into U.S. commerce. The label must be—
(1)Attached in one piece so it is not removable without being destroyed or defaced.
(2)Secured to a part of the engine or equipment needed for normal operation and not normally requiring replacement.
(3)Durable and readable for the equipment’s entire life.
(4)Written in English.
(5)Readily visible in the final installation. It may be under a hinged door or other readily opened cover. It may not be hidden by any cover attached with screws or any similar designs. Labels on marine vessels must be visible from the helm.
(c)If you produce equipment without certifying with respect to evaporative emissions, the equipment label specified in paragraph (a) of this section must—
(1)State: ‘‘MEETS U.S. EPA EVAP STANDARDS USING CERTIFIED COMPONENTS.’’
(2)Include your corporate name.
Below is an example of a label specified by CFR40 1060.135 for use with certified components;
