🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of a potable water system hot water heater and why its drains must be protected from contamination • Purpose of a deaerating feed water heater and how it relates to boiler feed systems, not drinking water • Difference between normal steam plant drains and drains that could contaminate potable water

💭 Think About

• Think about which tank or system is specifically designed to receive drains that might not be safe to return directly to the main system • Ask yourself: which option is most clearly associated with isolation, inspection, and possible dumping rather than normal reuse in the steam cycle? • Consider what part of the plant the potable water heater belongs to: the hotel/drinking water side or the main boiler feedwater side?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which listed item is normally installed in the boiler feedwater/steam cycle and not on the potable water system • Check which choice includes the idea of inspection or segregating potentially unsafe drains • Confirm that the option you pick is consistent with sanitary protection of drinking water on a ship
