FUEL FILLS & VENTS .................................................

Proactive boat builders are using this the EPA emission requirement as
an opportunity for  to focus on boater customer satisfaction. To that
end, ECS and it's suppliers have and are developing refueling product
technologies (both composite and metallic) that reduce dramatically and
minimize spit back and accidental overflow events. 

 

FUEL HOSE & DELIVERY ACCESSORIES.......................

In addition to EPA low permeation requirements, we must now also be
aware of the aggressive nature of high ethanol fuel blends (E10/20 and
up) that are much more aggressive than gasoline's of the past. ECS has
selected the highest quality hoses & filtration accessories available to
offer for installations. (Fuel fill, vent and delivery hose available in
all sizes, bulk boxed or pre-cut into kits.)

 

FUEL TANKS  
 .........................................................

ECS can provide a fuel tank solution custom to each boat requirement. We
are experts in the design of boat fuel tanks, but unlike existing fuel
tank producers, ECS is not tied to a single manufacturing process. We
select the appropriate molding or fabricating process and specific
material for each vessel application. We then assemble the tank with
specified fittings, test, QC and certify the tanks "in house" prior to
release to industry.

 

CARBON
CANISTERS.............................................................

A new feature for boats, marine evaporative carbon canisters are
designed to minimize/reduce the flow of fuel vapor (hydrocarbons) into
the atmosphere. As the daily diurnal temperature swings up (during the
heat of the day), fuel in the boats tank evaporates and is captured and
stored in an appropriately sized canister that contains activated water
resistant charcoal. As the diurnal temperature swings down (during the
evening), clean cool air passes back though the canister and carries the
stored hydrocarbons back into the fuel tank. This creates what is
referred to as passive purge.
