TEST INSTRUCTIONS Socket <br /> POPPET & FLOAT MOVEMENT adaptor <br /> FOR TESTABLE MODELS ONLY <br /> TOOLS NEEDED FOR TESTING: <br /> 1 . 1 /4" square drive extension or 3/8 " square drive ex- <br /> tension with 3/8" to 1 /4" socket adapter. e <br /> 2. Torque wrench / 1 /4" or 3/8" square drive ratchet <br /> wrench . <br /> 3 . Pipe dope. <br /> 4. Flashlight (optional) . <br /> Open Poppet Closed Poppet <br /> TEST STEP 1 : Test Figure 1 <br /> Remove spill container cover and fill cap from fill adapt/ <br /> er and look down into the tube and make sure no debris Pull on extension and <br /> or foreign objects are present. If debris or foreign ob- socket adaptor <br /> jects are present take appropriate steps before proceed- <br /> ! <br /> ing . Look down into the tube and ensure poppet is _ ,ft <br /> completely protected by the deflection shield . See Test ,.� . a' !AAA, _ _ Aft <br /> Figure 1 . If poppet is exposed and tank is not full the JA . " -- <br /> overfill valve should be replaced . A flashlight may help %= -= =3 <br /> when inspecting the tube. <br /> I <br /> TEST STEP 2: � r � , <br /> Unthread the socket adaptor assembly from the inlet -i <br /> tube using a 1 /4" square drive extension and wrench . I <br /> The extension will attach to the socket adaptor. Secure <br /> all tools to ensure they don't fall into the tank or valve. <br /> With the extension still attached pull on the socket <br /> adaptor and cable assembly and ensure float and pop- <br /> . c: <br /> pet move / function properly. It should only require 3 " ,L ;, H=a <br /> to 4" of movement and less than 5 lbs of force in order - <br /> to actuate the float and poppet. When looking down <br /> into the upper tube ensure poppet is visible and moves <br /> into the flow path (see Test Figure 1 & 2) when socket Open <br /> adaptor is pulled and resets properly when socket adap- Poppet Closed <br /> for is released . If poppet does not actuate freely take ; 4 Poppet I Float moves <br /> appropriate steps to correct. up <br /> TEST STEP 3 : — <br /> Apply pipe dope to the socket adaptor threads. Pipe <br /> dope should be a non- hardening gasoline resistant pipe <br /> thread seal compound . Make sure poppet and float <br /> have reset properly and are not visible then install sock- <br /> et adaptor and torque to 3.5 ft-lbs (42 in4bs) minimum <br /> to 5.0 ft-lbs (60 iMbs) maximum. After installing socket ( i <br /> adaptor, to ensure vapor tightness, OPW recommends <br /> conducting pressure testing per CARB TP201 . 1 D . Some Test Figure 2 <br /> areas may require pressure testing of overfill valve per <br /> CARB TP201 . 1 D to ensure valve is vapor tight. If the <br /> drop tube fails pressure testing it may be necessary to <br /> check the seal at the poppet adaptor threads . Reinstall <br /> fill cap and spill container cover after testing . <br /> 17 <br />
