Autofill System Operation
|
|
The AUTOFILL system
uses fuel tank pressure as the signal to stop the refueling operation.
The nozzle constantly senses pressure at its outlet (inlet to the
tank). When the fuel level reaches the vent valve the outlet from
the tank is closed and the tank pressure begins to build. When the
pressure reaches the “set” pressure for the nozzle used
the nozzle will shutoff. The system is totally independent from the
loading facility except for the fuel nozzle connection interface.
The system schematically shown to the right requires that a receiver
and vent be installed in the fuel tank and a connecting nozzle is
supplied from the loading rack. When the desired fuel level in the
tank is achieved the vent float valve shuts off and the tank pressure
begins to increase. The nozzle senses the tank pressure and when the
“set” level is reached the nozzle automatically shuts
off further fuel entry into the tank. A small bleed hole in the vent
allows the tank pressure to return to normal within a few seconds.This
system utilizes a type of nozzle/receiver that has wide acceptance
within the industry. |

Component Data
|
All components furnished by Carter
except the nozzle are installed within the vehicle fuel tank.
|
Nozzles
|
| The Carter nozzle
used in this type of system is fully interchangeable with the appropriate
competitive nozzles. The nozzle presents a dry-break push on - pull
off operation and will automatically shutoff the flow of fuel into
the tank when the tank is full. The nozzle constantly senses pressure
at its outlet (inlet to the tank). When the fuel level reaches the
vent valve the outlet from the tank is closed and the tank pressure
begins to build. When the pressure reaches the “set”
pressure for the nozzle used the nozzle will shutoff. Depending
upon the inlet pressure (loading rack capability) and the plumbing
downstream of the receiver, the flow into the vehicle can reach
upwards of 200 gpm. An on-off flow control handle is provided to
start and manually stop the flow. The flow control handle must be
in the closed position to connect and disconnect the nozzle from
the vehicle’s receiver. Various “set” pressures
are available from 2 - 14.5 psi. A dust plug is provided to keep
the connecting end of the nozzle free and clear of contamination.

MODEL 69101 RECEIVER |
|
Receivers
|
| The receiver
that mates with the nozzle allows the nozzle to be locked onto the
vehicle fuel tank and is opened by the flow control handle on the
nozzle. Upon disconnection the spillage of fuel is minimized by
the close tolerances used in manufacturing both the receiver and
nozzle. Unlike competitive receivers, the Carter Receiver is made
of steel and will not be damaged when used with any nozzle.
Plastic and Aluminum Dust Caps are available and
highly recommended to keep the interface between the Nozzle and
Receiver clear of debris.
The Ordering Data section provides the
appropriate part numbers for this equipment.
|
Vents
|
| Various vents
with different lengths, outlet and mounting configurations are available
as shown in the ORDERING DATA section. The vent when the tank level
is below it offers venting of the fuel tank at all times. As the
level approaches the vent a float shuts off the outlet and causes
the tank pressure to build which in turn causes the nozzle to stop
all inward flow into the tank. A small vent hole allows the pressure
to be relieved to bring the tank back to ambient pressure. In case
of a nozzle failure a built-in pressure relief valve will prevent
the tank from being over pressurized.
|
Swivels
|
| When connected
to the 69100 Nozzle Carter swivels allow for unrestricted rotation
of the nozzle on the hose for ease of operation. Various options
are available as noted later.

|
Break_a_way Valve
|
| This item, when
connected between the hose and loading rack (fixed only not on loading
arms) provides for a safe “drive away” when connected
to prevent spillage. Easily repaired when a break-a-way occurs.

Ordering Data
|
Use the following tables to determine
the part number desired for each component:
|
Nozzles:
|
| There are three
basic fuel nozzle model numbers for the AUTOFILL system to which
one or more of the options listed below may be added to change the
nozzle configuration. The plug is standard on all models. All nozzles
have 2” female NPT threaded inlets. Each nozzle mates the
69101 Model Receiver.
69100 Nozzle - a “set” pressure rating of 8.7 - 11.6
psi.
69100A - changes set pressure to 11.6 - 14.5 psi.
69100B - changes set pressure to 2 - 4 psi.
Add one of the following option letters to any
of the above basic nozzles to change the configuration as noted
below.
|
| Option Letter |
Description |
| C |
Adds 69104 Swivel to the inlet with 1 1/2”
Female NPT hose connection. |

for directing the
outlet of the vent to a remote location. The standard vent will have
a tank shutoff level of approximately 1 - 1 1/2” from
the top of the tank. All vents have floats to close the venting capability
off when the tank is full with an emergency relief
valve in the event that a nozzle fails to close off flow into the
tank. The standard vent for use with the 69101 Nozzle is
identified by a red band color. Both are available with options noted
below that may be added to the basic part number.
See Bulletin 69004 for mounting information on these vents.
