DEHYDRATION OPERATION

8.

The dehydrators are equipped with a water trap located in the
sump.

When the water level rises in the sump

pilot operated

motor valves No. V6 and V7 are closed, shutting the flow of

the diesel oil.

Pilot operated motor valves V91 and V92 open,

and the water is drained from the sump through valves V90, V93,
strainers S3 and $4, and motor valves V91 and V92 to a dry
well.

These motor valves are operated by a pilot attached to

the water trap.

When the excess water has been drained off,

valves V6 and V7 open, the diesel oil resumes its flow, and
the motor valves V1l4 and V15 close, shutting off the water
drain,

The sumps are equipped with an auxiliary drain and a

gauge glass.

Should the automatic equipment become inoperative,

the water can be drained through this auxiliary drain by operating valves V94 and ¥95.
The gasolone dehydration operation is the same as described

above. See FS 497 for valve numbers.
