Question 1538 Deck General
70% to passWhich of the following conditions will result in an automatic shut down of the flue gas inert gas system?
A
Low temperature water leaving the scrubber seal.
B
High temperature gas discharge from inert gas blowers.
C
High temperature gas entering the scrubber.
D
Oxygen content of the gas falls below 5%.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) High temperature gas discharge from inert gas blowers. The inert gas system is designed to automatically shut down when the temperature of the gas discharge from the inert gas blowers becomes too high. This is a safety mechanism to prevent damage to the system and potential fire hazards. The other conditions listed (low temperature water leaving the scrubber, high temperature gas entering the scrubber, and low oxygen content) may trigger alarms or require adjustments, but would not automatically shut down the system.
