Note: Nothing in this standard supercedes
applicable laws and regulations.
Note: In the event of conflict between the
English and domestic language, the English language shall take
precedence.
Purpose. To determine the durability of a fuel
tank assembly subjected to the effects of sloshing liquid.
Foreword. Sloshing liquid produces a cyclic
load that can deform, wear, or fatigue fuel system components and
features such as fuel pump module flanges or guide rods, level
sensor float arms or floats, and tank baffles.
The total number of slosh cycles (1 500 000) in this test is
intended to represent the expected number of slosh cycles that
would occur over the life of a vehicle.
Applicability. This test applies to all fuel
tank assemblies.
