As shown in the illustration, which of the following conditions would be responsible for a "low pressure in oil outlet" alarm to be indicated? Illustration MO-0127
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option A — Throughput too low
Purifier throughput below design parameters reduces the backpressure and fluid flow dynamics required within the separation chamber, frequently triggering low oil outlet pressure alarms. Maintaining correct feed rates ensures stable interface positioning and continuous centrifugal separation efficiency.
