🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for automatic boiler ignition systems • Definition of "trial for ignition period" in Coast Guard boiler regulations • Why long ignition trials increase risk of unburned fuel accumulation in the furnace

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens in a boiler furnace if the burner keeps sparking but flame does NOT establish. How quickly do you want the system to shut off fuel? • Compare each time option with what would be considered a safe period before too much unburned fuel could build up and create an explosion hazard. • Ask yourself which of these times is most consistent with a fail-safe, conservative safety standard for an enclosed furnace.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR Part dealing with Automatic Auxiliary Boilers and Combustion Safeguards (46 CFR Subchapter F – Marine Engineering). • Check the exact definition of "trial for ignition"—it applies from fuel admission to either flame detection or shutdown. • Confirm that the regulation sets a maximum number of seconds; pick the answer that does NOT seem excessively long for preventing unburned fuel buildup.
