ANSWERS RATED A+ |HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY EXPERTS
|BRAND NEW!! |REVISED
1. 1.- Where generally Fuel-oil is used in buildings? What
purposes?: Is used in Stationary Equipment
Two purposes:
a) Fuel Emergency Generators
b) Fuel Equipment used to heat the building
2. 2.- What COF is required to supervise the Fuel-oil transfer in the building from
one floor to another?: - P-98 and maintain all qualifications and comply w/ requirements applicable to such
certificate holder
- The P-98 COF is premise-related
3. 3.- The use of the word should refers to:: Policies, procedures and/or best practices recom-mended by the
FDNY, and may not be a codified requirement.
4. 4.- The use of the word shall refers to:: Requirement of the Fire Code or the FDNY
5. 5.- Supervision of Fuel-Oil Piping & Storage Operation
Shall be under the GENERAL SUPERVISION of P-98:: A stationary fuel-oil storage tank, related piping,
that is installed on the lowest floor of the building and transfer fuel-oil through piping to another stationary fuel-oil storage tank,
or fuel burning equipment, installed above such floor
6. 7.- Maintenance Requirements
Fuel-oil storage tanks and piping shall be inspected for any evidence of leaks-
: Weekly
7. 6.- Supervision of Fuel-Oil Piping & Storage Operation Shall be under the
PERSONAL SUPERVISION of P-98 COF: Periodic Inspection and Testing of tanks and piping
8. 8.- Maintenance Requirements
Fuel-oil storage tanks shall have their float switches tested to ensure that they are in
good working order at least: Weekly
9. 9.- Licences & Certificates
No oil burning equipment may operated until: a) Certificate of Compliance has been issued by
NYCDOB
b) Air pollution control code requirements NYCDEP
,c) Permit for the Storage & use of fuel-oil issued by FDNY
10. 10.- Licences & Certificates
Pursuant to the New NYC Fire Code & Mechanical Codes stated that: The COF
, is required for all existing and new buildings where fuel is being transported from the lowest levels to tanks or equipment on upper
floors
11. 11.- Oil Circulation in the System
Diagram #1: The process of oil circulation from the tank at the lowest floor of a building to the b floor above urner on the
such floor through the pump.
12. 12.- Oil Circulation in the System
Oil storage tank: Provides the supply of oil for combustion in the oil burner. It is inside a dik the dikede. In case of a leak
area will contain the oil. In its normal condition, #2 fuel-oil is thin and light and is easily the circulation system pumped through
13. 13.- Oil Circulation in the System
A Suction pump: Circulates the oil throughout the system. Dirt and sediment are present in the fu from the oilel-oil coming
storage tank. The oil filter removes most of these contaminants from the oil before the oil r burner's strainer. eaches the
14. 14.- Oil Circulation in the System
The Suction Line: Has to be 6 inches from the bottom of the tank for sediments not to be abs vacuumorbed. The
gauge is a device that measures pressure below atmospheric pressure. Excessive vacuum rea that there is andings indicate
an be stopped
obstruction in the suction line (such as dirty oil strainer). When this occurs the flow of oil c by closing the shut-ott valve.
This permits the operator to clean the filter/strainer or to perform other m aintenance
15. 15.- Oil Circulation in the System
Main Fuel Valve: Electrically operated and will open or close the line leading to the atomizer only for oil burners. It will
shut down the burner system if there is a failure of ignition or combustion.
16. 16.- Oil Circulation in the System
A Back Pressure Relief Valve: Oil circulates through the piping system back to the storage tank through the oil return
line. A back pressure relief valve is provided for safety if the pressure becomes too great. Day tanks may be located throughout the
building above the lowest floor
17. 17.- Oil Circulation in the System
A Separate Pump: Required for each day tank to supply each floor. In case of a leak in the pipi collector isng, leak
provided. Leak collector is stored by the storage tank. It has a oil level gauge which shows th collected e amount
