Term
How many pumps are found in each tank and what are they called? |
|
Definition
Three; one ejector pump, one scavenge ejector pump, one electric fuel boost pump. |
|
|
Term
What is normally used to supply fuel from the wing to the engine fuel control unit in flight? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
How is the primary fuel ejector pump powered? |
|
Definition
Motive flow from the respective engine. |
|
|
Term
What is the primary purpose of the scavenge jet pump? |
|
Definition
Maintains the fuel level in the collector tank ensuring a constant flow of fuel to the engine during normal flight |
|
|
Term
When is the electric fuel pump activated if in the auto position? |
|
Definition
Engine start, crossfeed operation, if primary ejector pump fails. |
|
|
Term
What ensures that the differential pressure between the tank and ambient remains within structural limits and prevents fuel spillage? |
|
Definition
A vent system including a NACA air inlet/outlet. |
|
|
Term
How is crossfeeding performed? |
|
Definition
Select the XFEED switch to the wing tank with the low fuel quantity (LO 1 or LO 2). This opens the XFEED valve and turns on the electric DC pump in the wing tank with the highest level of fuel. Both engines will utilize fuel from that tank. |
|
|
Term
What is the restriction on crossfeed operation? |
|
Definition
Shall not be performed during takeoff and landing |
|
|
Term
When fuel becomes balanced and the XFEED valve is still open, what CAS message will be annunciated? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Will the total tank quantity indication be lost if only one wing tank quantity indicator fails? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
The fuel shutoff valves are normally open. What is the only way to close one of these valves? |
|
Definition
By pushing the fire shutoff pushbutton. |
|
|
Term
What would cause a “FUEL LO LEVEL” CAS message? |
|
Definition
310 lbs of fuel remaining in the respective tank |
|
|
Term
What would cause a “FUEL IMBALANCE” CAS message? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Is there de-fueling capability? |
|
Definition
Yes, by means of a dump valve located under each wing. |
|
|
Term
While fueling, what monitors the fuel quantity in the tanks and controls refueling flow into each tank? |
|
Definition
EFCU, Electronic Fuel Control Unit. |
|
|
Term
How long is maximum refueling time from empty to full? |
|
Definition
Less than 12 min, at 50 psig. |
|
|
Term
Explain the two critical tests that should be accomplished on the control panel before re-fueling begins? |
|
Definition
Lamp Test – When the LAMP TEST switch is held up, the LH TANK and RH TANK indicator lights stay on or come on according to the status of these lights, the FAIL indicator light turns on and the digits light up. Shut-Off Test – When the SHUT-OFF TEST switch is held up during pressure refueling operation, the LH TANK and RH TANK indicator lights must come on, indicating that the shut-off valve closes, and the FAIL indicator light must be off |
|
|
Term
What action is necessary to accomplish on the refueling panel if external power is not being utilized? |
|
Definition
The POWER SWITCH must be selected to BATT. |
