Vent Valve

VENT VALVE




The vent valve is located inside of the fuel tank. During filling the fuel tank, fuel vapors are introduced into the canister through the vent valve.

When the fuel vapor pressure becomes higher than the atmospheric pressure and overcomes the spring force which is applied to the back side of the diaphragm, the port toward the canister is opened. The vent valve also has a float which rises and block the port toward the canister when the fuel is full.
