Question 1 of 27070

Each receiver in a starting air system which can be isolated from a relief valve __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Starting air system safety requirements for main and auxiliary engines • Protection of air receivers against overpressure, especially when isolated from common relief devices • Typical fire safety features for pressure vessels containing compressed air or gas

💭 Think About

• What is the hazard if an air receiver can be shut off (isolated) from the main system relief valve while still exposed to heat or pressure? • Which device in the options is specifically designed to protect a closed pressure vessel in case of fire, not just during normal operation? • Consider which options describe mandatory safety equipment versus comments about approval or disapproval for classification.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice provides a direct mechanical means of pressure relief on that specific receiver itself. • Check which option deals specifically with fire-induced overpressure in a closed vessel. • Eliminate any answers that talk only about approval status without clearly giving a protective device or safety function.
