What happens when the fuel level reaches the high-high level alarm setting on a Type IV cut and cover tank? 429 | A resonating horn, a light external to the control room, and the window on the PCP marked high-high level alarm are all activated |
What type pump is used to transfer fuel on a Type IV product recovery tank? Where is the fuel transferred? 429 | A 50-gpm, multi-stage, deep well turbine pump. It is transferred (returned) back through the receiving separators to the operating storage tanks |
What type and capacity is the fueling pump used on a Type IV cut and cover tank? 430 | Deep well turbine pumps rated at 600 gpm when driven at 3,600 rpm |
What type and capacity is the fueling pump used on a Type IV cone roof with floating pan tank? 430 | API 610, with a horizontal centrifugal, rated at 600 gpm when driven at 3,600 rpm |
What is the primary purpose of the 41 AF–1A valve? 430 | To lock the fueling pumps on after they have started. |
What valve is used as the Type IV issuing filter separator control valve? 430 | The 41AF–2C |
What happens to the emergency shut-off valve when there is system power loss or an emergency shut-off switch is engaged? 430 | It is directed to the main valve cover chamber, closing the valve |
Where is the issue venturi located? 430 | Downstream of the 136AF–9B valve |
What is the issue venture rated? 430 | At 1,200 gpm |
How many pressure transmitters are found in the Type IV system? 430 | There are two, one is a pressure indicating and the other is differential pressure |
What is the primary purpose of the pressure indicating transmitters (PIT)? 430 | To signal the microprocessor whenever system pressure drops below 60 psi, to call on the lead pump, and to call off the lead pump when system pressure reaches 175 psi. |
What does the Type IV system use to connect to an aircraft for fueling? 431 | A pantograph |
What type swivel joints are used on a hoseless pantograph? 431 | Stainless steel, single-plane, non-lubricated |
What is the maximum electrical resistance throughout a hoseless pantograph? 431 | 1000 ohms |
What size piping is used on a hose end pantograph? 431 | 3 inches in diameter, schedule-10 stainless steel |
Why are lubricated swivel joints not allowed on a hose end pantograph? 431 | there is no filter separator after the pantograph |
What valve is used as the refueling control valve in a Type IV system? 431 | 362AF–7 valve |
What happens to the 58AF–9–1 when the Type IV system is placed in “loop flushing mode?” 431 | The valve opens wide and freefloats, which means the valve opens wide with any fuel flow |
What happens to the 58AF–9–1’s solenoid “A” when the Type IV system is automatically started? 431 #14 | It is energized. |
What are the four positions on the selector switch of a Type IV system? 432 #6 | Automatic, Off, Pantograph Flush, or Loop Flush mode operation |
When do you get an “INVALID ENTRY” indication on the PCP address parameter? 432 #8 | When entering a value into an address that is not within the range of that parameter |
When does the 58AF–3 solenoid energize during the “loop flush” mode? 435 | When the Auto-Off-Hand selector switch is placed in the “Hand” position. This starts the pump and energizes 58AF–3 PCV to close |
How much fuel must be pumped to flush the loop of a Type IV system? 435 | Twice the loop’s capacity |
(427) What type piping is used on the main fuel line of a Type IV system for a 2-inch pipe? | Epoxy-coated carbon steel, schedule 80 |
