1-10. General. The operation of the fuel system is described and illustrated in this section.
1-11. Operation (figure 1-11). Fuel enters fuel system through the wye and tee assembly (1). It is then moved
into the six 10,000 gallon collapsible fabric tanks (2) by the first of two 350 gpm centrifugal pumps (3). It may also
be moved by the fuel transporter or pipeline pumps. A second 350 gpm pump (4) moves the fuel from the
collapsible tank through the filter/separator (5) to the quick-acting valves (6) and (7) and the dispensing nozzles
(8). The gate valves (9) are used as shutoff valves to control the distribution of fuel through the system.
