Under the Technical Inspection Act of 21 December 2000, fuel vapour recovery equipment is subject to technical inspection during operation to ensure a minimum fuel vapour recovery level.
‘Fuel vapour recovery equipment’ is defined as equipment installed at liquid fuel stations, used for recovering class I fuel products (flash point up to 21 0C) vapours that escape when vehicle tanks are filled and transferring them to a storage tank for these products or to a liquid fuel dispenser.
