Abstract
Apparatus for equalizing pressure within a vapor space of a storage vessel. In accordance with various embodiments, a pressure equalization assembly has a base housing member adapted to be mounted to a tank adjacent a tank aperture in fluidic communication with a vapor space of the tank. A canister assembly is adapted for removable engagement with the housing member between a closed position and an open position. The closed position establishes a fluidic seal interface between the housing member and the canister assembly. The open position provides user access to the vapor space through the tank aperture. The canister assembly further has a compound seal assembly with first and second pistons biased against corresponding first and second annular seal members while the canister assembly is in both the closed position and the open position. A third annular seal member is disposed between the canister assembly and the base housing member.
