ABSTRACT:
A vapor collection canister vent valve contains both an electric pressure sensor for measuring evaporative emission space pressure during a diagnostic test and an electric actuator for operating the vent valve closed during a diagnostic test. Use of the valve in an evaporative emission control system reduces the number of connections, both electrical and fluid, that are required to install the valve in a system. The remote location of the pressure sensor damps the effect of pressure transients, such as those due to tank fuel slosh, on the sensor.
