2 6 Connecting the tank
• Filler cap
Fit the filler cap (13).
When filling the tank, fuel can overflow from the filler cap and
spill onto the deck. This can be prevented by installing a Vetus
Fuel Overflow (11) between filler cap (13) and tank. Consult the
relevant manual for installing the Vetus fuel overflow.
• Filler hose
Fit a filler hose (6) between the filler cap and the tank. Use a
fire-resistant hose with an internal diameter of 38 mm (1
51 mm (2"). Install this hose in such a way that neither tank or filler
cap are mechanically stressed.
• Breather nipple
Fit the breather nipple (7) as high as possible above the level of
the top of the tank.
Choose a location for the breather nipple at a place where
leaking fuel or vapour cannot get into the ship!
