    Study Notes

    Pressure Refueling Modes

    • There are 3 modes of pressure refueling: manual, automatic, and override.

    Manual Refueling

    • Requires pre-calculation of fuel distribution
    • Refueling valves are manually controlled through a control panel.
    • Requires constant monitoring of fuel quantities in the tanks.

    Automatic Refueling

    • Uses a fuel quantity control computer to calculate fuel distribution based on block fuel preselection.
    • Automatically controls the refueling valves for accurate fuel and distribution.
    • Benefits: safe, reduces workload, stops refueling at preselected fuel.
    • The standard mode on modern aircraft.

    Override Refueling

    • Used when electrical power to the refueling valves is unavailable.
    • Refueling valves are opened by a mechanical override on the refueling valves, bypassing the electrical system.
