PUMP SHIFT CONTROL PLUMBING
Air connections shall be provided from the air supply tank to the pump shift control valve and from the pump shift control
valve to the frame mounted bracket. The frame mounted bracket shall include labeling identifying the pump and road
connection points with threaded .0375 NPT fittings for attaching the customer installed pump. The air supply shall be
pressure protected from service brake system.
FUEL FILTER/WATER SEPARATOR
The fuel system shall have a Fleetguard FS1003 fuel filter/water separator as a primary filter. The fuel filter shall have a
drain valve.
A water in fuel sensor shall be provided and wired to an instrument panel lamp and audible alarm to indicate when water
is present in the fuel/water separator.
A secondary fuel filter shall be included as approved by the engine manufacturer.
FUEL LINES
The fuel system lines shall be brown reinforced nylon tubing rated for diesel fuel with brass fittings installed from the tank
to engine including the return.
FUEL SHUTOFF VALVE
A fuel shutoff valve shall be installed in the fuel draw line at the primary fuel filter to allow the fuel filter to be changed
without loss of fuel to the fuel pump.
A second fuel shutoff valve shall be installed in the fuel draw line, near the fuel tank to allow maintenance to be performed
with minimal loss of fuel.
FUEL TANK
The fuel tank shall have a capacity of sixty-eight (68) gallons and shall measure 35.00 inches in width X 20.00 inches in
height X 24.00 inches in length. The increased height and reduced length allows for the use of a shorter rear frame
overhang on the chassis. The baffled tank shall be made of 14 gauge aluminized steel. The exterior of the tank shall be
painted with a PRP Corsol™ black anti-corrosive exterior metal treatment finish. This results in a tank which offers the
internal and external corrosion resistance.
The tank shall have a vent port to facilitate venting to the top of the fill neck for rapid filling without "blow-back" and a roll
over ball check vent for temperature related fuel expansion and draw.
The tank is designed with dual draw tubes and sender flanges. The tank shall have 2.00 inch NPT fill ports for right or left
hand fill. A 0.50 inch NPT drain plug shall be centered in the bottom of the tank.
The fuel tank shall be mounted below the frame, behind the rear axle. Two (2) three-piece strap hanger assemblies with
“U” straps bolted midway on the fuel tank front and rear shall be utilized to allow the tank to be easily lowered and
removed for service purposes. Rubber isolating pads shall be provided between the tank and the hanger strap
assemblies. Strap mounting studs through the rail, hidden behind the body shall not be acceptable.
