Passthru device for internalized component fuel tanks

摘要

A pass-through device for internalized component fuel tanks provides passageways for communication between the interior chamber of the fuel tank and the exterior. The pass-through device includes a communicative passageway for a fuel supply line and a through opening for electrical connections, and may include additional communicative passageways for fuel return lines, and purge and fresh air inlets. The pass-through device includes a main body preferably composed of nylon. The main body is bonded to a mounting plate preferably composed of polyethylene. The mounting plate provides a circumferential surface for weldably sealing the pass-through device to a polymeric fuel tank.
