ABSTRACT:
A fuel tank venting separator (10) having a chamber (50) in which is formed a first port (40) to conduct liquid (24) and gas (34) from a fuel tank (14), a second port (42) to vent gas (34) to the atmosphere and a plurality of openings (44) to return the liquid (24) to the tank (14). The chamber (50) is formed around the outside circumference of a fill tube member (36) installed in the fill tube (12) of the fuel tank (14). Alternatively, the separator (100) may be in the form of a canister (102) spliced into a vent line (134) through a Y-fitting (138). Liquid (120) and gas (122) vented through the vent line (134) enters the chamber (104) where the liquid (120) is returned to the tank (130) through a second hose (148) and the gas (122) is vented overboard through a third hose (150) attached to an overboard vent (136) such that contamination of the environment by the liquid (120) is prevented.
