Wiggins Brochure PDF

The document discusses Wiggins Tank Vents and their automatic refueling and lubrication service systems. It provides details on how the systems work, including how the nozzles automatically shut off when the tank is full. It also describes the different types of nozzles, receivers, vents, and couplings that are part of the systems, as well as how to install the systems. The very high flow VR300 system is highlighted, which can refuel at rates up to 300 gallons per minute.

AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF
HOW IT WORKS:

FAST, CLEAN, SAFE

The Wiggins fast fuel System is based on the


simple concept of using a sealed vehicle tank to
allow a small amount of back pressure to build and
automatically shut off the nozzle. A receiver is
located near the bottom of the tank. Bottom filling
helps eliminate foaming which can occur during top
fueling splashing.

FAST - The Wiggins fast fuel system reduces


fueling time by three to five times, and gets your
vehicle back into service. By reducing fueling time
to only 10 minutes, when compared to a
conventional nozzle fueling at a rate of 25 GMP on
a tank of one thousand gallons compared to the
maximum Wiggins fuel rate of 150 GPM). This
means timesaving of 20 minutes each fueling or
one hour of additional vehicle service each day.
Thus, system payback is less than one year per
vehicle!

The Wiggins ZZ9A1 nozzle is attached to the


Receiver, the handle is turned to the ON position
and fuel begins to fill the fuel tank at a rate up to
150 Gallons per Minute.
As fuel enters the tank, it forces the air inside the
tank to exit through the Wiggins vent. When the
fuel level nears the top of the tank, the Hollow
floating balls force the third Solid ball to seal
against the vent Stem, sealing the tank. As fuel
continues to flow, pressure inside the tank builds
until it reaches 8 to 10 PSIG. At 8 to 10 PSIG, the
nozzle automatically shuts off. The nozzle can then
be removed, and the next vehicle is ready to fuel!

Because the Wiggins system fills the tank from the


bottom, foaming of the diesel fuel is kept to a
minimum, resulting in full tank every time, reducing
the time between fuel stops.
CLEAN - The automatic shut off feature, along
with the positive seal on the tank vent assures that
spills are kept to a minimum.
The Dry Break
feature built into each unit assures that there is no
spillage when the nozzle is disconnected, even if
fuel is currently flowing through the nozzle.
SAFE - Because fueling is performed at ground
level with the Wiggins system, there is no need for
personnel to clime onto equipment to fuel or
service. This greatly reduces the number of
accident cause by falling.

How to install the Wiggins system


Ways to mount
Receivers

Ways to mount Vents


There are three ways to mount tank vents.
Example is:

There are five basic ways to mount Wiggins


receivers to the fuel tank, depending on the vehicle.
Examples are:

It must be noted that the vent be mounted so that

the alignment of the bottom of the vent stem allows


for a minium ullage of 5% to 10% of the total tank
volume. By not allowing for the proper level of
allege on the tank could cause the system to over
fill.

ZV-13 Filtered Vent

Contaminated fuels are one of the biggest challenges to


diesel vehicle operation today. Dirt in the fuel injectors
can keep machines out of service. The ZV-13 filtered
vent assures that any air entering the fuel tank has
been filtered to 100 microns, eliminating a major cause
of fuel contamination.

VR300 Details

Failsafe Operation
The VR300 is a closed circuit; pressure actuated refueling system that incorporates three
main components: Nozzle, Receiver, and Jet Sensor. The work in concert to assure that
fuel continues flowing only when all three components are properly connected and
functioning. If any of the three components malfunctions or the tank is full, or the nozzle is
not connected to the receiver, no fuel will flow, no accidental spills can occur.
