Question 87Safety & Environmental - QMED
70% to passClean air standards, referred to as 'Grade D', apply to compressed air for use in _______________.
Adriving air powered plunger pumps
Bhigh-pressure fluid accumulators
Cfilling open circuit breathing systems
Dbladder type accumulators
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) filling open circuit breathing systems. The "Grade D" air quality standard applies to compressed air used for filling open-circuit breathing systems, such as those used in SCUBA diving or other underwater operations. This standard ensures the air is free of contaminants and safe for human breathing. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not involve the use of compressed air for human respiratory purposes. Option A is for air-powered pumps, option B is for high-pressure fluid accumulators, and option D is for bladder-type accumulators, none of which require the stringent "Grade D" air quality standard.
