Moeller Anti-Siphon Valve 033808-10, 3/8 Inch Barb x 3/8 Inch NPT, Brass, 15 Calibration
The Moeller 033808-10 is a brass anti-siphon valve built to combine anti-siphon protection with a convenient hose barb design. Federal law requires anti-siphon protection on permanent fuel tank installations if the hose dips below the top of the tank, and this valve is designed to meet that requirement while providing a secure connection point between the fuel line and the tank fitting. It features a 3/8 inch hose barb outlet paired with a 3/8 inch NPT (National Pipe Tapered) threaded inlet, giving installers a threaded connection on one side and a barbed hose connection on the other.
This valve carries a 15 Calibration, which yields 15 inches of vertical height protection and is intended for use on engines rated 200 horsepower and above. It is constructed of brass with a brass exterior finish, has 2 ports, and is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 pounds per square inch. The valve meets ABYC H-24 specification. It is a straightforward, drop-in style component for boat builders and repair technicians installing or replacing anti-siphon protection on gasoline-powered boats with permanent fuel tanks.
