Barton 60010 – Fuel Whistle, Audible Fuel Tank Vent Alarm, Spill Prevention
The Barton 60010 Fuel Whistle is an innovative and patented device designed to prevent accidental fuel spillages during refuelling. Installed in the fuel tank vent line, it produces an audible whistle as air escapes during filling, stopping automatically when the tank is nearly full.
This simple yet highly effective system provides a clear warning to the operator, eliminating guesswork and helping to avoid overfilling, fuel waste, and environmental contamination. It is suitable for both sailing and power boats and is easy to integrate into existing systems. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
