27
Q

What are the engine-driven fuel pumps?

A

Attached to the accessory case and atomizes the fuel for combustion

28
Q

During normal operations, what are the fuel boost pump switches set to?

A

ON

29
Q

What happens when the electric boost pump switches are set to OFF?

A

Electric boost pumps turned off

30
Q

What does setting the fuel boost pump switches to EMERG do?

A

The electric boost pumps are powered by the PE bus

31
Q

What buses power the electric boost pumps?

A

Left - PS1, Right - PS2

32
Q

What is total fuel capacity of the 900XP?

A

10,000 lbs (8,500 lbs in wings, 1,500 lbs in ventral tank)

33
Q

How is fuel normally distributed on the 900XP?

A

Jet pumps draw fuel into the #1 tank compartment, then the electric boost pumps deliver fuel under pressure to the same-side engine via the LP fuel cocks

34
Q

What happens when the AUX FUEL TRANSFER lever is set to transfer?

A

With both boost pumps operating: ventral fuel transfers to both wings evenly

With one boost pump operating: ventral fuel transfers to side with operating boost pump

35
Q

What happens if both boost pumps fail?

A

Fuel gravity feeds into the #1 compartment and is suctioned out by engine-driven fuel pump - ventral fuel not available

36
Q

Where does the APU get fuel?

A

Left wing tank

37
Q

What happens if the WING FUEL lever is set to the XFEED position?

A

Fuel from wing tanks are available to either engine

38
Q

What happens if the WING FUEL lever is set to the TRANSFER position?

A

Opens the wing transfer valve and fuel will move to the side with the operating boost pump

39
Q

What do the LP cocks control?

A

Low pressure fuel valves (one in each engine supply line, can isolate the engine fuel feed lines from the fuel tanks)

40
Q

What do the HP cocks control?

A

The fuel valve at the engines

41
Q

What does the FUEL 1/2 LO PRESS annunciator indicate, and when does it illuminate?

A

Indicates a low pressure condition when pressure in the engine fuel line falls below 7 psi

42
Q

What does the AUX FUEL TFR annunciator indicate?

A

Illuminates when the AUX FUEL TRANSFER lever is moved to the open position

43
Q

What does the REFUEL ON annunciator indicate?

A

Any refuel valve is open

44
Q

What does the WING FUEL XFD/TFR annunciator indicate?

A

Illuminates when the WING FUEL XFEED TRANSFER lever is moved out of the closed position - in the TRANSFER position, the light flashes

45
Q

Where is the fuel quantity read?

A

Right-side MFD, given in pounds

46
Q

How does the ventral fuel quantity display?

A

FULL, EMPTY, or hatch marks when in between conditions

47
Q

What is the maximum wing fuel imbalance?

A

500 lbs

48
Q

What is the max wing fuel in order to transfer ventral fuel to wings?

A

3,300 lbs per side

49
Q

What is the minimum wing fuel with fuel in the ventral tank?

A

3,450 lbs per side

50
Q

What is maximum ventral tank capacity?

A

1,500 lbs

51
Q

What is maximum wing tank capacity?

A

4,250 lbs per side

52
Q

If one hydraulic engine-driven pump fails:

56
Q

The purpose of the pressure maintaining valve in the main hydraulic system is:

A

To maintain 2,300 psi in the main accumulator for normal brake operation

57
