There are several safety precautions that should be used when working around fuels. Specifically, always turn the car off when fueling up. Additionally, if a fire breaks out while using a petrol pump, do not worry about removing the nozzle, just get away from the fire and get help.

The standard specific fuel consumption for a heat engine is 0.5 lb per HP per hour. A 3 MW generator is 4000 HP but allowing for conversion efficiency the engine would probably have to provide 5000 HP, so using the above specific fuel consumption the rate of fuel use would be 2500 lb fuel per hour. With a specific density of 0.8 2500 lb of fuel would have a volume of 310 gallons. This generator uses 310 gallons per hour, therefore 100,000 gallons would last 100,000/310 hours or 322 hours, just under 2 weeks.
The Superheater safety valve must be the lowest set safety valve on any boiler, in order that flow through the superheater is maintained.If the drum valve were set lower the flow through the superheater would be disrupted on an overpressure.
A gagging tool is used on the water drum safety valves for the pressure setting. The safety valves are gagged one by one and the blow off presure is set for the other.
