CAUTION: WHEN TRANSFERRING JP-5 FUEL, BE SURE TRANSFER HEATERS
ARE BYPASSED. JP-5 FUEL DOES NOT REQUIRE HEATING.
WARNING: THE TEMPERATURE OF FUEL OIL SHALL NEVER BE RAISED TO
OR ABOVE ITS FLASH POINT (MINIMUM OF 140 F).
R. Place heater in operation by depressing the HEATER ON
pushbutton; verify "HEATER ON" indicator illuminates.
S. Resume purifying fuel by turning FUEL FORWARD selector
switch to the FUEL FORWARD position.
T. When the "FUEL FORWARD" indicator illuminates, release
the FUEL FORWARD switch.
U. Verify the "NO EFFLUENT" indicator is extinguished.
V. Report to EOOW/PACC operator, "Commenced transferring
fuel oil from No. ___ fuel oil storage tank to No. ___
fuel oil service tank."
W. Ensure all operating parameters are normal.
X. Five (5) minutes after transfer initiation, then every
thirty (30) minutes, sample and visually test (clear and
bright) purifier discharge.
Y. Monitor liquid level indicators; when designated service
tank(s) is at 80% in-port (95% at-sea), and designated
service tank is to be recirculated immediately after
transfer, system alignment may be shifted from transfer
to recirculation by performing OP NO. SFSS, Step VIII.
IX. SECURE RECIRCULATING FUEL OIL FROM SERVICE TANK TO SERVICE
TANK
NOTE: In order to properly secure the purifier after a
purification cycle, a bowl cleaning operation must be
performed.
A. Secure recirculating fuel as follows:
1. Turn the FUEL FORWARD selector switch to the
STOP/ALARM RESET position.
2. Verify the "FUEL FORWARD" indicator is extinguished.
B. Secure designated heater by depressing the HEATER OFF
pushbutton; verify "HEATER ON" indicator extinguishes.
