1 Introduction
This manual applies to the Vetus (rigid) plastic diesel fuel tanks.
These tanks conform to ISO 21487 Standards.
When installing a fuel tank, the European Recreational Craft Direc-
tive (RCD, 2013/53/EU) and any national legislation must be ob-
served. Use the ISO 10088 standard as a guide.
2 Installation
2.1
General
When choosing a location for the tank and a place for the deck filler
cap, take the following into account:
The filler hose must be kept as short as possible; it must run continu-
ously to the tank and be as straight as possible.
Distribute the tanks, and thus the weight, evenly over the ship (F =
Fuel, W = Water).
Positioning
Install the tank in such a way that it is easily accessible for inspection.
The tank should always be installed above the maximum bilge water
level.
Also ensure that there is sufficient free space at the top of the tank
for the hose connection. This connection must be easily reached dur-
ing installation. For ventilation, the tank should have a free space of
about 1 cm (
3
/
") from bulkheads or other tanks.
8
Make sure the tank has a sufficiently secure foundation on which to
install it and secure it properly. The dimensions of the tank will in-
crease a little when it is filled. Take this into account when fixing
the tank.
Fix the tank securely with the fitting straps from the installation kit;
these will accommodate the expansion of the tank.
Fitting in sailing ships
When fitting remember that the filler hose must always be posi-
tioned on the same side of the ship as the tank.
This prevents too high a pressure from possibly occurring in the tank
when sailing at an angle.
