Fuel Flashcards
Which fuel Hopper L/R has the APU fuel supply line?
Left
Which fuel Hopper L/R has the fuel tank temperature sensor?
Both for HFRS
A fuel quantity system test results in the following indications:
7000 / 7000 / 14000 in amber inverse video on all synoptic pages displaying fuel information and an amber “L-R FUEL LEVEL LOW” CAS message is displayed
How do you preset the quantity of fuel being added to the aircraft?
Remote Fuel Panel cockpit, set total quantity of desired fuel load.
If electrical power is lost to the fuel pumps, will the engines still run?
Suction Feed is available below 20,000’
If automatic refueling has been accomplished since the last flight you should check that the:
Auto refuel switch on the Remote Refueling Panel is selected off.
On Emergency Batteries (E-BATTS) the pilot can determine the fuel quantity on:
MCDU 1 (Multi Function Display Unit no 1)
How do you use the Remote Fuel Panel?
- Set fuel quantity desired
- Select AUTO
- Asterisk (*) displays next to amount to be added
Which manual describes FUELING PROCEDURES?
- AOM Chapter 9 Handling & Servicing Procedures
- 09-02-10 Fuel Servicing
How do you transfer fuel from tank to tank?
Use Inter Tank Valve
How do you balance fuel using the INTER TANK VALVE?
Rotate Rudder Trim in direction of HEAVY WING, resulting in 1/2 trapezoid displacement, then open INTER TANK VALVE
During pressure refueling, the FQSC (Fuel Quantity Signal Conditioner) monitors intertank quantities. What happens if an imbalance of 500 lbs / 226 Kg occurs?
The FQSC interrupts fueling to the HEAVY WING until the imbalance is reduced to 100 lbs / 45 Kg. A fuel level low probe is installed in each fuel hopper.
At what fuel level will a “FUEL LEVEL LOW” CAS message appear?
650 lbs / 295 Kg
How much fuel does each fuel hopper contain?
190 US Gallons / 1283 lbs
If you are balancing fuel what is the CAS message displayed when you open X-FLOW valve?
- Blue “FUEL X-FLOW VALVE OPEN”
- After 5 minutes the CAS changes to an AMBER “FUEL X-FLOW VALVE OPEN”
If fuel is allowed to go out of balance by more than 1,000 lbs in flight, how will the crew be notified?
Blue “FUEL IMBALANCE” CAS
What are the inflight and ground imbalance limits?
Ground - 1,000 lbs
In Flight - 2,000 lbs
What is the maximum fuel load at normal fuel density?
41,300 lbs
The Heated Fuel Return System (HFRS) opens at 0 (zero) degrees Celsius and stops at +10 degrees Celsius. What else is the FADEC monitoring to open the Fuel Return to Tank Valve (FRTT)?
- The cockpit overhead switch is selected to AUTO
- The engine fire handle stowed (not pulled)
- Engine LOW Fuel Pressure not indicated
- Engine LOW Fuel Quantity not indicated
- Engine FUEL FLOW is less than 2,250 lbs per engine
- Fuel Filter not blocked
- Fuel X-Flow Valve closed
- Fuel temperature should be at or below 0 (zero) degrees Celsius
- Electrical power to the FRTT valve available
What are the electrical power sources for the Fuel Pumps?
L MAIN - Left ESS DC
L ALTERNATE - Left MAIN DC
R MAIN - Right ESS DC
R ALTERNATE - Right MAIN DC
