Tanks, Inc. - Fuel Vapor Carbon Canister

Genuine Tanks Inc Fuel Vapor Carbon Canister with or without Heat Shield

Minimize or eliminate fuel odors with this fuel vapor canister, which filters hydrocarbons from fumes released during daytime thermal fuel expansion and tank refueling. The canisters are purged when fresh air is drawn into the tank during thermal contraction or while the engine is running, returning the hydrocarbon molecules to the fuel.

• Spring loaded volume compensator compresses carbon to reduce internal abrasion caused by vibrations.
• Heavy wall, elliptically shaped body enhance durability and pressure resistance.
• Large surface area filters located at each end of the canister minimize airflow restrictions while keeping carbon in place.
• "Floating Bracket" simplifies installation, reduces torque transmission and protects end caps from heat.
• Durable polymer body with welded end caps and 5/16" vent hose connection.
• Designed to withstand a temperature range from -40 to 176 degrees Farenheit.
• Available with a Heat shield that allows for use in the engine compartment.
• The canister can be mounted in any orientation.
• 1/2 Liter Capacity
• 9.85" Long x 3.8" Wide x 2.9" High

This canister functions as a hydrocarbon vapor control device. If liquid, such as water or gasoline, enters the canister, it will coat the carbon and hinder its ability to capture gasoline vapors. Although a single instance of liquid entering the canister won’t damage the carbon, a poorly designed system that repeatedly allows liquid inside will impair the canister’s functionality.
