Zusammenfassung:An overfill prevention valve system comprises: an overfill prevention valve (32) including: a fluid path (44); a blocking component (42) positioned in the fluid path (44), wherein said blocking component (42) is movable between a closed position wherein the blocking component (42) generally blocks fluid from flowing through the fluid path (44) and an open position wherein the blocking component (42) generally allows fluid to flow through the fluid path (44); and a float (38') operatively coupled or coupleable to the blocking component (42) and positioned or positionable externally of said fluid path (44), characterised in that said valve (32) is manually testable by magnetically moving said float (38') to thereby move the blocking component (42) away from the open position.
