All nodes in the fuel system must be on the side opposite the exhaust manifold.
Batteries should not be placed not only near the tank, but also in the same compartment with the engine. It is best to place them in a separate well-ventilated cabinet, drawer, and on the air ducts of the cabinet to place any valve or flame terminating the mesh should not be.
Fuel tanks are not recommended be made of brass or galvanized steel, which are prone to severe corrosion. In industrial environments sometimes make the fuel tanks made of fiberglass, but fans should not take risks: if not carefully molded and poor impregnation of such fuel tanks and fuel filter can thus create a risk of explosion and fire.
In the marine environment should prefer narrow and high fuel tanks with a low free-surface fuel, located parallel to the long side DP. In such fuel tanks less agitated and has less effect on the stability of the vessel. If the surface of the tank get big, it should be divided into several parts by setting the inside fender bulkheads that do not interfere, however, the free overflow of fuel.
Reliable fixing gas tanks in the hull of the boat should pay particular attention. First of all, the mass of the fuel tank should be read in cabinet design.
3abor fuel from the tank must be carried out through the upper wall to prevent fuel leakage into the hold. It is best to place the top of the tank filler neck of a sufficiently large diameter to be sealed by a (screw and gasket) lid, through which one can carry out inspection, cleaning and repairing the tank. All pipe joints to the tank to perform better on special hose secured by tightening buckles. These compounds protect the pipeline from the vibration that is transmitted engine. For fuel lines are commonly used tube of red copper. |
