Abstract

A poly valve device for a gas tank comprising a valve body (1 ) with a flange (2) for mounting the device on the gas tank; an overfill protection valve (3) mounted on an internal side of the valve body (1) with regard to the tank when the device is mounted thereon; a fill port (4) on an external side of the valve body (1 ) and in communication with the overfill protection valve (3); a level indicator means (6,7) on the internal side of the valve body (1); means (8,9) for transmitting information of the level of liquid in the tank from the level indicator means (6) to the external side of the valve body (1); a valve means mounted on the valve body for delivering gas from the tank to a user; wherein the poly valve device further comprises a level sensing means (5) with a floater (10) hinged on the overfill protection valve (3) and/or on the level indicator means (6) and cooperating with both of them for providing information of the level of liquid.
