AIGF Exit Exam • Set 7 Question 8 of 30

In Requirements for internal combustion engines of Piston type, the crankcase of a trunk piston type engines are fitted with a means of ______________

✓

Direct Answer

Option B: manually injecting inert gas

To mitigate explosion risks in trunk piston engines, the IGF Code requires the crankcase to be equipped with a manual inert gas injection system. This allows engineers to displace oxygen and suppress potential ignition sources within the crankcase during emergency scenarios or maintenance involving gas fuel systems.

All Options

automatically injecting inert gas

manually injecting inert gas (Correct Answer)
