The three types of shutoff valves used in the crossfeed fuel system are the SLIDING GATE, ROTARY PLUG, AND DISC
The basic purpose of the fuel vent system is to PREVENT THE RUPTURE OR COLLAPSE OF THE FUEL TANKS
The fuel subsystem designed to minimize fuel boiling point is PRESSURIZATION
The minimum distance an aircraft should be parked from a hangar prior to a defueling operation is 50 FEET
The air-refueling (A/R) receptacle is operated HYDRAULICALLY, BUT CONTROLLED ELECTRICALLY
The output pressure and the flow ratings of centrifugal-type fuel pump are greater thanthe system needs in order to PROVIDE AN AMPLE SUPPLY OF FUEL IN CASE OF A SINGLE PUMP FAILURE
The kind of centrifugal pump is used when a fuel supple is required during periods of negative gravity condition sis A DUAL-IMPELLER
What characterisitc distinguishes the ejector-type fuel pump from other types of fuel pumps? CONTAINS NO MOVING PARTS
The arrow stamped on the body of a fuel system check valve indicates the DIRECTION OF FREE FLOW
One disadvantage of a sliding gate fuel system valve is that it CANNOT WITHSTAND EXTREME PRESSURES
The fuel system component used to prevent excessive pressure from building up in trapped lines is the SPRING-LOADED RELIEF VALVE
Another name for the disc type valve in a fuel system is BUTTERFLY
A primary function of the low-level shutoff valve is to control the flow of fuel BEING TRANSFERRED OUT OF A PRESSURIZED TANK
The action used by the low-level shutoff valve to prevent the reverse flow of fuel through the valve is CHECK VALVE
Malfunctions of a fuel system vent float valve can be cuased by ROUGH HANDLING OF THE VALVE DURING INSTALLATION
In a direct current (DC), liquid-level fuel indication system, the wiper contact is positioned on the resistance strip by THE MOVEMENT OF A FLOAT IN THE TANKS
The primary purpose of the air pressure regulator in a fuel system is to CONTROL THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE ENTERING THE FUEL TANK
