FCST-X FEATURES

LEGACY FCST FEATURES

The features listed below carry over from previous fuel cell surge tanks.

• Merged single 10AN ORB female threaded outlet. All pumps use check valves that prevent back-flow.
• One-way fill valves (355LPH each) allows fuel in, but not out, keeping the surge tank full.
• Multiple fuel pump options including gerotor, reaction turbine, and brushless DC motor pumps.
• Hermetically sealed high-current stainless steel electrical studs capable of handling all pumps.
• Simplified servicing eliminates sealing washers and fuel cell retaining brackets.
• Full CNC aluminum construction with anodized surfacing for superior corrosion resistance.
• Fuel compatibility: leaded and unleaded gasoline, methanol, ethanol, E85, etc.
• Optional fuel surge tank level switch and diagnostic LED failsafe port.
• Rollover vent valve protection
