Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009148384A1] A device for water separation for a fuel tank (1) connected to an engine (16) in a vehicle comprises an ancillary space (2) intended to contain fuel, a line (4) intended to supply fuel/water to the ancillary space (2) and a line (6) intended to supply fuel to the engine (16) from the ancillary space (2). The line (4) intended to supply fuel/water leads into a separate container (7) situated in the ancillary space (2), the upper end (12) of which container (7) is always situated higher than an intended highest possible fuel level (10) in the ancillary space (2). The invention also comprises a fuel tank provided with a water-separating device and a vehicle comprising one or more such fuel tanks.
