🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for firefighting equipment on tank vessels • Specific 46 CFR section covering low velocity fog spray applicators in machinery spaces • Difference between number of hose nozzles and number of applicators required

💭 Think About

• Look up the exact 46 CFR section that discusses fire hose nozzles and fog applicators on tank vessels and note any minimum quantity stated for machinery spaces. • Think about why machinery spaces on tank vessels (carrying flammable cargoes) might require more than just one applicator for safety redundancy. • Compare the number of applicators required in machinery spaces with those required in cargo deck areas to avoid mixing up the two requirements.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact CFR citation (part and section) that mentions "low velocity fog spray applicators" specifically for machinery spaces of tank vessels. • Confirm whether the rule says "at least" a certain number or ties the number of applicators to the number of fire stations or hose outlets in machinery spaces. • Be sure you are not confusing the requirements for portable extinguishers or semiportable systems with the separate requirement for fog spray applicators.
