One leg goes down as usual and pokes out the bottom fairing. The other leg goes to the check valve and never exits the wing root. The orientation of the valve has to be such that air can pass through the valve in the direction of the tank (obviously). The idea is that when the primary vent unknowingly becomes blocked (ice, bugs, etc), the check valve will open and allow venting from the wing root. As the fuel pump sucks the fuel out of the tank, the pressure drops inside the tank, and that is what opens the vent without any intervention on your part.

I know you want one with a very very very low operating pressure (vacuum, actually). If you get even a couple of psi that it takes to open the valve, your tank will have probably imploded by then. This valve appears to be for fuel flow return lines. It doesn't seem to give a spec. I got a valve from McMaster Carr that had a cracking pressure of .3 psi. http://www.myrv10.com/N104CD/upgrades/20090525/index.html I can't say that the valve you linked to is bad, but I would just caution to make sure that it's probably no more than 1psi of cracking pressure. Any valve that takes more than that to operate may risk tank collapse.

If the vent ic ed over it freely sucks air through the check valve. If the fuel expands and starts coming out the vent, there would not be ice there to start with beca use of the temperature.

I ran the wire up the right side of the fuse, under the door sill, across the panel structure to my GPU plug in front of the left door. I did have to accommodate the larger size. I don't recall any specific adverse issues but like any mod it took more effort. Perihelion lists specs and discusses work hardening, corrosion, etc. Like I said, my installation has been trouble free for some time. --Dave On Thu, Nov 23, 2017 at 9:22 PM, Bob Turner wrote: > > Like others, I=99m curious as to how many pounds were saved. > Also, since this wire is fatter, did you have to oversize any bushings to > get the wire(s) thru? > > -------- > Bob Turner > RV-10 QB > > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=475492#475492 > > =========== =========== =========== =========== =========== > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rv10-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RV10-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rv10-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rv10-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
