Optional Features
3.5.1 Internal Pilot Lines
The pilot lines can be connected, if preferred, inside the tank with little modifications to the valves. Both fuel filling &
float valves are designed with 2 outlets with ¼” BSP threads, with one of them plugged. Just by replacing the plug from
one outlet to the other, the pilot line can be run either internal or external to the tank.

CAUTION
While using internal pilot lines, single wire braided hose is used for abrasion resistance. The
hose lines have swivel fittings at their ends to facilitate the easy assembly.
3.5.2 Anchoring Pilot Lines
The external pilot lines can be anchored to the surface of the fuel tank to avoid the damage caused by flapping of the
line. The anchoring options are:
Fixed anchor hardware
Cable ties
Magnetic P-clips (Does not require Hot Working of Tank)

NOTICE
The magnetic P-clips contain a magnetic base with a screwed on P-clip through which the pilot
line can be guided. These magnetic clips can be fixed onto the surface of the metallic tank
without any risk of damaging the tank.
