ANSI/OPEI Compliant Parts

ISM provides ITW Fuel Filters & Fuel Valves that have been certified to the new B71.10 standard

A sample selection of ITW Fuel Filters & Valves that have been certified to ANSI/OPEI standardThe standard and certification processThe Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI) sponsored an important revision of the “American National Standard for Off-Road Ground-Supported Outdoor Power Equipment – Gasoline Fuels Systems – Performance Specifications and Test Procedures”. The first edition of this standard was published by ANSI in 2008. During November of 2018, this new revision to the original standard was published and is now referred to as:  ANSI/OPEI B71.10-2018.  The effective implementation date of this standard is November 12, 2020.  It applies to all products built after that date.

The standard describes safety specifications and test procedures applicable to gasoline fuel systems for off-road ground-supported power equipment with spark ignition engines of less than one-liter displacement.  These new testing standards include new and updated structural integrity testing for inline fuel system components. That testing was developed to mimic the stresses caused by in-use conditions that can lead to part failures in fuel line components such as inline plastic fuel filters and fuel shut-off valves.
