16
Q

What kind of pump is In each collector Bay?

A

Auxiliary fuel pump

17
Q

Any residual fuel in the surge tank can be routed back to the tank in flight by what?

A

Positive ram pressure from NACA vents in the under surface of the surge tank.

18
Q

Should the fuel tank vents become blocked when will the dump valve open to relieve pressure?

A

The valve will open to relieve pressure at an interior tank pressure of 3.25 PSI

19
Q

What are the two uses for the dump valve in the fuel tanks?

A

Relieve excess pressure in the case of a vent blockage, also to release Excess fuel from the tank into the Surge Bay in the event of an overfill.

20
Q

How many probs in each fuel tank to measure the quantity?

21
Q

When do you get an associated tank fuel low caution light?

A

Below 130 lbs

22
Q

Which two pumps supply fuel to the engine?

A

The engine driven pump, and a boost ejector pump

23
Q

The high-pressure engine driven fuel pump is driven by what?

A

The accessory gearbox.

24
Q

Where does the boost ejector pump Draw it’s Fuel from?

A

From the collector Bay

25
When does the green advisory light adjacent to the auxiliary pump switch illuminate?
When the auxiliary fuel pump is providing fuel boost pressure greater than 4PSI
26
When does the Fuel emergency shut off valve close?
When the PULL fuel off handle is pulled
27
On the Emergency fire protection panel how will you know if the fuel valve is closed?
A white closed advisory light
28
If the high-pressure fuel filter becomes restricted what happens?
Fuel bypasses the filter to supply the engine and illuminates the respective fuel filter bypass caution light
29
Pressure refuelling is normally shut off automatically when the desired tank quantity is reached if automatic shut off fails what occurs?
When the fuel tank fills a float in the pilot valve It will shut off servo flow causing the flow control valve to close
