Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1327604A1] The fuel tapping valve has a fuel cut-off element (4) with a main closure body (5) and a pilot closure body (12) that is actuated externally to influence the movement of the main closure body. A fuel delivery cut off (17,29,30,26) can be triggered by a vacuum produced in the main flow and also by a vacuum produced in the auxiliary flow of the pilot closure body.
