Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition (ISO 10088:2013), which has been technically
e765485da305/iso-10088-2022
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— pressure testing requirement updated in Annex A;
— permeation test limits and test procedures added as a new informative Annex B to serve as a
reference for evaporative emissions.

Introduction
This document deals with the installed fuel system as a whole. Fire resistant hoses, non-fire resistant
hoses and permanently installed petrol and diesel fuel tanks are dealt with by ISO 7840:2021,
ISO 8469:2021 and ISO 21487:2022, respectively. These standards are applicable to these products
supplied as components.
Some countries have environmental controls for evaporative emissions from petrol fuel systems, and
this document includes an informative Annex B describing limits and test procedures for the control of
evaporative emissions from permanently installed petrol fuel systems. The details in Annex B allow for
future standardization and application of evaporative emissions on small craft.
As the international community further restricts fuel system emissions, it is anticipated that Annex B
will have increased global acceptance.

4 General requirementsiTeh STANDARD PREVIEW
4.1 Materials and design (standards.iteh.ai)
4.1.1 Individual components of the fuel system, and the fuel system as a whole, shall be designed
ISO 10088:2022
to withstand the combined conditions of pressure, vibration, shocks, corrosion and movement
https://standards.iteh.ai/catalog/standards/sist/a3cbd55e-9789-42a6-b88b-
encountered under normal operating conditions and storage of the craft.
e765485da305/iso-10088-2022
4.1.2 Each component of the fuel system, and the fuel system as a whole, shall be capable of operation
within an ambient temperature range of − 40 °C to + 80 °C, without failure or leakage.
NOTE Thermoplastic tanks and components can be affected by high return fuel temperature. It is therefore
important to read the engine installation manual for information.
4.1.3 All materials used in the fuel system shall be resistant to deterioration by its designated fuel and
to other liquids or compounds with which it may come into contact under normal operating conditions,
e.g. grease, lubricating oil, bilge solvents and sea water.
4.1.4 Petrol engine compartments, petrol tank compartments and compartments with joints or
fittings in fuel lines connecting spark-ignition engines with their fuel tanks shall have ventilation and
ignition protection in accordance with ISO 11105:2020 and ISO 8846:1990.
4.1.5 The only outlets for drawing fuel from the fuel system shall be
— plugs in petrol filter bowls intended solely for the purpose of servicing the filter;
— plugs or valves in diesel filter bowls intended solely for the purpose of servicing the filter.
NOTE Tank openings are covered by ISO 21487:2022.

ISO 10088:2022(E)
4.1.6 Any metal or metallic plated component of a petrol tank and its filling system that is in contact
with petrol shall be grounded so that its resistance to the craft’s ground is less than 1 Ω.
Grounding wires shall not be installed between a hose and its clamps.
4.1.7 Fuel filling systems shall be designed to avoid spillage of fuel during refuelling to the rated
capacity. Fuel systems shall be tested in accordance with 4.2.3.
4.1.8 Provision shall be made to prevent fuel overflow from the vent opening while refuelling from
entering the interior of the craft or the water.
NOTE A substance is “entering the interior of the craft”, when it gets into a place being inside the surface
of the watercraft. This can be the cabin or a similar place not being open to the atmosphere having one or more
closing appliances used to cover an opening in the cockpit, hull or superstructures.
4.1.9 All fuel system components in engine compartments (e.g. filters, pumps, water separators
and hoses) – excluding permanently installed fuel tanks, which are tested in accordance with
ISO 21487:2022 – shall individually, or as installed in the craft, be capable of withstanding a 2,5 min fire
test as specified in Annex C.
Fasteners supporting metal fuel lines constitute an exception to this requirement.
4.1.10 Copper-base alloy fittings may be used for aluminium tanks if protected by a galvanic barrier to
reduce galvanic corrosion.
iTeh STANDARD PREVIEW
4.1.11 A means to determine the level or quantity of fuel in the tank shall be provided.

4.2 Testing
ISO 10088:2022
4.2.1 After installation, the fuel system as a whole shall pass the pressure test specified in Annex A.

e765485da305/iso-10088-2022
4.2.2 Small components of the fuel system (e.g. filters, pumps, water separators and hoses), required
to be fire tested according to 4.1.9, shall be tested as specified in ISO 7840:2021, Annex A, with the
lower part mounted 250 mm above the surface of liquid in a pan of which the sides extend beyond the
component by 150 mm. The component to be tested shall be a complete assembly and shall include all
accessories intended to be attached directly to the component.
4.2.3 There shall be no spillage of fuel from the fill fitting when filling at a rate of 30 l/min from 25 %
to 75 % of the capacity on the tank label. For fuel tanks of 100 l capacity or less, the fill rate may be
reduced to 20 l/min. The test to determine compliance with this shall be performed on at least one craft
or a representative installation.
4.3 Installation
4.3.1 The fuel system shall be permanently installed. All component parts, except small connectors
and fittings and short sections of flexible hoses, shall be independently supported.
4.3.2 All valves and other components intended to be operated or observed during normal operation
of the craft, or for emergency purposes, shall be readily accessible. All fittings and connections of the
fuel system shall be readily accessible, or accessible through an access panel, port or hatch. Tanks need
not be accessible for removal.
4.3.3 The clearance between a petrol fuel tank and a combustion engine shall not be less than 100 mm
unless a thermal barrier is provided.
