The legislator demands:

Refueling vapors in the vehicle must be recovered (ORVR = O nboard R efueling V apor R ecovery)
Fuel and refueling gases must be separated in order to prevent fuel from flowing into the activated charcoal canister due to inappropriate refueling or a defective nozzle.

Thanks to its shape, the fuel filler neck functions as a suction jet pump. The fuel out of the nozzle accelerates through this in the filler neck and air is suctioned around the nozzle.

As a result of this air intake (in the fuel tank) around the nozzle, refueling vapors are not able to rise up at the fuel filler neck and escape into the atmosphere.

The refueling gases are stored in the activated charcoal canister. When the canister is regenerated (purge control valve actuated), the refueling vapors are drawn off by the engine and burned together with the fuel vapors from the fuel evaporation control system.

Stop refueling when the nozzle is switched off and the fuel tank is full! On no account overfilling fuel tank as a result of refueling nozzle being switched on several times.

If the fuel tank is full, the float with the flap (45/2) closes the fuel filler neck at the bottom. This ensures that the refueling nozzle shuts off rapidly and overfilling is largely prevented. A check valve (45/1) prevents the quick increase of fuel in the filler neck.

Two safety valves (rollover valves) (75/1) located in the fuel tank (75). If fuel flows to the high mounted safety valves they close the vent line to the activated charcoal canister (77). Through powerful braking, accelerating or cornering the valves can also close briefly.

If an excessively high pressure exists in the activated charcoal canister, the pressure relief valve (77/1) opens. In this special case the removal of pressure is performed via the activated charcoal canister shutoff valve (Y58/4) into the open air.

The refueling vapors flow along the vent line to the expansion reservoir and on from there to the activated charcoal canister. A filler neck with valves is not necessary.
