The rate of flow is increased
2.
To preserve the list and trim
of the ship

storage tank?
1.
It passed through a filter or
centrifugal purifier
2.
It was filled directly from the

An overflow line
Why should you be concerned about
ships side cleaners spray painting
near tank air escape vents?

2.
The paint will mix with the
JP-5 and lower its flash point
3.
The paint could clog the flame
arrester and block the flow of
air
4.
The paint will dissolve the
grease applied during PMS
What device is installed in the
overflow line to prevent overflow
from the overflow tank going into
another storage tank?
1.
