In what application is an emergency shutdown most likely to be located outside the machinery space when the pump itself is located within the machinery space?

Correct Answer: Option A — Fuel oil transfer pump

46 CFR requires remote emergency shutdowns for fuel oil transfer pumps to be located outside the machinery space. This ensures that in the event of a fire or fuel leak within the engine room, the fuel supply can be isolated from a safe, accessible location to prevent further hazard.
