Q

According to 46 CFR's, all oil-fired main propulsion boilers with automatic burner safety control systems must be provided with _______.

🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for automated boiler safety systems in engine rooms • Purpose of a flame detector in an oil-fired boiler with automatic burner control • Difference between monitoring each burner versus monitoring only the furnace or other temperatures

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In an automatic system, what specific condition must be detected quickly to safely shut off fuel to prevent furnace explosions? • Consider whether safety rules focus on general furnace conditions or on the status of each individual fuel source. • Which choices are clearly about temperature control or steam quality rather than direct flame-safety shutdown?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR that automatic burner safety controls must be able to shut off fuel rapidly when flame is lost. • Check whether the regulation speaks about flame detection for each burner or just somewhere in the furnace space. • Eliminate any options that mainly address steam temperature control or stack temperature instead of direct flame presence detection.
