Overview

Tanks Inc. Fuel Vapor Canisters

Minimize or eliminate fuel odors with Tanks Inc. fuel vapor canisters, which filter 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. Available with or without heat shield. If the canister is mounted in the engine compartment, use the heat shield version. Select the one needed for your vehicle.

Features:

* Spring loaded volume compensator compresses carbon to reduce internal abrasion caused by vibrations
* Heavy-wall, elliptically shaped body enhances durability and pressure resistance
* Large surface area filters located at each end of the canister minimize airflow restrictions while keeping carbon in place.
* Patented "floating bracket" simplifies installation, reduces torque transmission and protects end caps from heat
* Durable polymer body with welded end caps and 5/16 in. vent hose connection
* Designed to withstand a temperature range from -40 to 176 degrees F
* The canister can be mounted in any orientation
* 1/2 L capacity
* 9.85 in. L x 3.8 in. W x 2.9 in. H

Note: These canisters function as hydrocarbon vapor control devices. 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.
