SYSTEM DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
GENERAL
The fuel system stores fuel in 5 tanks. It supplies

fuel to the engines and APU and recirculates fuel to
cool the oil of the IDGs (Integrated Drive Generators).
A vent surge tank is fitted in each wing.
FEED CONCEPT
Engines are supplied by the center tank fuel via the

center tank pumps.
When the center tank fuel has been used, engines are
supplied by the wing tank pumps, first with the inner
cell fuel and then with the outer cell fuel which flows
to the inner cell.
MANAGEMENT
The different functions of the system are:

- Fuel level and temperature sensing, fuel
transfers, fuel recirculation, refuel/defuel
control and monitoring, indications, warnings
and test.
The fuel quantity indicating system comprises:
- 1 Fuel Quantity Indicating Computer (FQIC).
- 2 Fuel Level Sensor Control Units (FLSCUs).

A - Yes, wing tank pumps are always running.
B - No, only when center tank is empty.
C - No, because of center tank pump priority.

C - the engine fire detection system senses
an engine fire.
When there is a low level in one inner cell:

A - one intercell transfer valve opens.

The defuel/transfer valve connects the main fuel pump

FUEL LEVEL MAGNETIC INDICATOR OPERATION
Prior to using the Magnetic Manual Indicators, a

reading is taken on the attitude monitor to determine
the out-of-level attitude of the aircraft in the pitch
and roll axes.
To measure the FUEL QUANTITY, the magnetic level
indicator has to be unlocked. To accomplish this, use
a screwdriver to push the applicable MMI and turn it
through 90deg. Hold and carefully lower the MMI fully.
Then carefully lift the MMI until you fell the magnets.
Read the units mark nearest to the bottom-skin of the
wing and write down the number. Retract the MMI and
use a screwdriver to turn it through 90 deg to lock
it. Use the table for the applicable aircraft attitude
and the applicable MMI stick number to find the volume
of the fuel in each tank.

MMI OPERATION:
- Press in the pushbutton and quarter turn in
either direction to eject the rod.
- Withdraw the rod lightly until magnetic
attraction is felt.
- Read fuel level on graduated rod at point
coinciding with sight collar.
- Using this reading, the fuel specific gravity
and the a/c attitude, calculate the quantity
of fuel in the tank using charts.
- Replace the indicator rod by sliding it into
the tube and lock by a quarter turn.
CAUTION: YOU CAN EASILY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE MAGNETIC

LEVEL INDICATORS. DO NOT TOUCH OR PUSH AGAINST
THEM WHEN YOU ARE IN THE FUEL TANK.

FUEL LEVEL SENSING COMPONENTS
DESCRIPTION:
All sensors are similar in construction. The level
sensor contains a thermistor and a fast blow fuse.
The temperature sensors contain a platinium wire
resistor and a fast blow fuse.
OPERATION:
When the sensing thermistor is exposed to air, its
temperature raises by the applied current. When it is
immersed, the high thermal conductivity of the fuel
in comparison with air, causes the thermistor
temperature to fall.
