An air compressor is being refitted in the engine room. The compressor and motor are coupled using a flexible coupling and are mounted on a common 'skid' which fixed to the deck with resilient mountings. Which of the statements, from the options given, relating to the alignment of the motor and compressor is true?
As long as the two coupling halves are at the same height the flexible coupling will accommodate any horizontal misalignment or difference in the gap between the coupling faces.
Shims should be fitted between the motor and compressor feet and the skid to ensure correct vertical, horizontal and parallel alignment of the coupling halves before it is bolted up.
The compressor and motor can just be placed directly on the common skid as they will probably be closely aligned anyway.
Machines using flexible couplings and resilient mountings do not need to be aligned. That is why they have flexible and resilient elements fitted.

Water and acid mixed together in certain concentrations can result in the development of dangerously high heat levels and aggressive reactions with steel surfaces. Which of the following is a general description of the approach to be adopted when cleaning a cargo tank after the discharge of Sulphuric Acid?
It is important that, once cleaning commences, large quantities of washing water can be delivered as quickly as possible, so that the acid is repaidly diluted.
It is critical that, as cleaning commences, washing water is introduced in a controlled manner, allowing time for the acid and water in the sump to mix slowly and thoroughly before the rest of the tank surfaces are flushed.
A mixture of hot fresh water and Sodium Hydroxide solution (50/50) should be prepared beforehand and then circulated around the tank, rapidly neutralising any remaining acid.
Any acid remaining in the sump should first be ejected and the tank ventilated for a minimum of 30 minutes before the introduction of any water, ensuring that there are insufficient acid residues to create any dangerous reaction.
