Carbon canister with direct connect fuel tank isolation valve

A fuel tank venting system comprising

• a canister housing including a media storage body formed to define a storage cavity containing a carbon bed configured to absorb hydrocarbons in fuel vapor from a fuel tank that flows into and out of the storage cavity of the media storage body and a storage body closure selectively coupled to the media storage body to close a top opening to the storage cavity, the storage body closure formed to include a mount hole that extends axially through the storage body closure along a closure axis,
• a fuel tank isolation valve assembly including a valve housing, a fuel tank isolation valve arranged in the valve housing, and a valve assembly seal located in the mount hole of the storage body closure between the valve housing and the storage body closure of the canister housing to seal therebetween, the valve housing formed to define a fuel-tank vapor port adapted to be coupled in fluid communication with the fuel tank and a vapor-transfer passageway in fluid communication with the fuel-tank vapor port that extends axially relative to a valve axis, and the fuel tank isolation valve located in the vapor-transfer passageway and configured to regulate the flow of fuel vapor between the fuel tank and the storage cavity, and
• valve assembly coupling means for fixing the valve housing of the fuel tank isolation valve assembly directly to the storage body closure of the canister housing with the valve housing located in a predetermined position relative to the storage body closure of the canister housing in which the valve housing extends into the mount hole of the storage body closure to cause the vapor-transfer passageway of the valve housing to be in fluid communication with the storage cavity of the canister housing and the valve axis of the fuel tank isolation valve assembly to overlap with the closure axis of the storage body closure so that the valve housing is blocked from tilting and rotating about the valve axis relative to the storage body closure to reduce wear on the valve assembly seal between the valve housing and the storage body closure,
• wherein the valve assembly coupling means includes a valve mount bracket that extends axially away from the storage body closure and a plurality of fasteners that extend through the valve mount bracket into the valve housing of the fuel tank isolation valve assembly perpendicular to the valve axis and the closure axis to fix the valve housing in the predetermined position relative to the storage body closure of the canister housing.
