INSTALLATION MANUAL
BRP-Rotax
■ CAUTION: Employ GENUINE-ROTAX
fuel pumps only. Non-compliance
will release BRP-Rotax from any liability.
Place of installation:
- Installation of the fuel pumps principally near the fuel tank to gain
advantage of a cool location, especially important at tendency of vapour
locks.
- Install the pump in low position, if possible below fuel tank, free of
vibrations. Therefore, fuel pump attached directly on the engine is not
permitted.
Max. suction head 250 mm (10 in).
▲ WARNING: Certification to the latest requirements such as FAR or EASA
has to be conducted by the aircraft manufacturer.
Because of the risk of steam vapour formation on the suction side of the
pumps and other safety reasons is the pump installation not permitted in the
engine compartment.
▲ WARNING: Installation of the fuel pumps in the engine compartment
and in the cockpit is not permitted since the fuel pumps
are not of a fire resistant construction.
▲ WARNING: Should the situation arise, certification to the latest require-
ments such as FAR or EASA would have to be conducted by
the aircraft manufacturer.
- If possible the fuel pump should be installed in such a way that it is easily
accessible for maintenance (so that the fine filter (1) can be checked
according to the maintenance schedule)
