Hopper Tank
A hopper tank is recommended, between the main fuel tank and the engine.
JetCat
USA highly recommends the BVM UAT for the hopper tank!
Always use the filter between the fuel pump and the solenoid valve as shown in
the diagram. This is true even when using the BVM UAT! The pump will emit
small particles that can block the solenoid valve from completely closing!
NOTE: On P200, use 6 mm tubing up to the fuel pump. The fuel demands are high on the
P200 and require larger tubing on the inlet side of the pump. The P200 includes a 6 mm
to 4 mm adapter.
Prime the pump and system.
To prime the fuel pump and fuel lines (or for fuel pump test purposes), it is necessary to
open the fuel shutoff valve and run the fuel pump manually. For this purpose, use the
Test–Functions Menu
selection,
Pump TestVolt
. This test opens the fuel valve and
acts as a speed control for running the pump.
,
Extremely Important:
Pump Test allows the fuel pump to operate without the turbine running. However, if the
fuel feed line is not removed from the turbine during this procedure; it will become
flooded with fuel. When this occurs, the next turbine start can become highly
combustible!
Before activating the pump test mode, ALWAYS remove the fuel feed line
connected to the turbine.
