While the FWG is stopped.
Never.
Never – except during maintenance.
Which ONE of these actions would be best to increase the flow of jacket water to the fresh water generator while it is running?
Adjust the by-pass valve until the desired inlet and outlet temperatures are reached.
Open the jacket water inlet valve fully.
Open the jacket water outlet valve fully.
Start a second jacket water circulating pump.
Which ONE of these best describes the function of the sight glass on a fresh water generator?
It enables the brine level to be seen.
It enables the evaporated steam to be seen.
It enables the flow of feed water to be seen.
It enables the flow of condensate to be seen.
Which ONE of these best describes the process of “vacuum distillation”?
Seawater is boiled at low pressure and temperature before being condensed into fresh water.
Fresh water is boiled at low pressure and temperature before being condensed into alcohol.
Fresh water is boiled at low pressure but high temperature before being condensed into alcohol.
Fresh water is boiled at low pressure but high vacuum.
Which ONE of these best describes the purpose of a fresh water generator is?
To convert seawater into AC electricity.
To convert fresh water into DC electricity.
To convert seawater into drinking water.
To convert seawater into fresh water, for drinking and for use in ships systems.
Which ONE of these best describes the purpose of the air valve, fitted to the fresh water generator?
It allows the vacuum to be broken when shutting down.
It allows air to be removed, so that a vacuum can be created.
It prevents overpressure in the unit.
It allows vapour samples to be taken for analysis.
Which ONE of these best describes what is supplied by the fresh water generator ejector pump?
Condenser cooling, feed-water for evaporation and driving water for the brine/air ejector.
Only the driving water for brine/air ejector.
Only the feed-water for the evaporator only.
Only the feed-water for evaporation and driving water for brine/air ejector.
Which ONE of these best describes what takes the heating medium into the fresh water generator?
An integral hot water circulating pump is fitted.
A thermostatic valve controls the flow of heating medium.
The steam pressure drives.
It is pumped around by the jacket water circulating pump.
Which ONE of these best describes why fresh water disinfection equipment is often fitted with fresh water generators?
To prevent corrosion inside the unit.
Because the titanium heat exchangers leak poison.
To improve the taste of drinking water.
Because boiling water at low temperatures not kill all harmful bacteria.
Which ONE of these best describes why fresh water generators are more reliable than they used to be?
They use a different working principle to older designs.
They use steam for heating instead of jacket water.
They have fewer moving parts.
They use seawater resistant materials, rather than coatings.
Which ONE of these best describes why fresh water generators can be used in an unmanned engine room?
They are designed with continuous monitoring of the fresh water quality.
They have no moving parts and therefore do not go wrong.
All of their systems have remote control.
They are built with no local indicators or gauges.
Which ONE of these best describes why modern fresh water generators are simple to install?
They have fewer moving parts.
They can be assembled in place.
They use steam for heating instead of jacket water.
They can be folded for transportation.
Which ONE of these best describes why re-hardening filters are sometimes fitted with fresh water generators?
To prevent corrosion of the hot water circuit.
To improve the taste of drinking water.
To prevent corrosion of the cooling circuit.
To prevent corrosion inside the unit.
Which ONE of these best describes why spring loaded valves might be fitted in the fresh water discharge line?
They dump the fresh water when the tank is full.
They prevent air being sucked in.
They dump the fresh water when the salinity is too high.
They enable the reciprocating discharge pump to work.
Which ONE of these best describes why two similar fresh water generators might have a different number of plates in their heat exchangers?
They have been designed to fit different spaces on board.
They have been designed to operate with different heating or cooling water temperatures.
They use different vacuum levels.
One is designed for greater condenser throughput, to improve ejector performance.
Which ONE of these creates the vacuum inside the fresh water generator?
The fresh water pump.
The water powered ejector.
The compressed air powered venture.
The rotary vacuum pump.
Which ONE of these describes why the sea suction for fresh water generators is often separate from other suctions?
Because it is installed by the fresh water generator manufacturer, not the shipyard.
So it is away from any anti-fouling chemical injection systems.
Because the suction line will be made of titanium.
So it never takes water from the low suction.
Which ONE of these does the vapour generated in the evaporator pass through?
The condenser only.
The demister and condenser.
The demister only.
