Why wouldn't this have protective equipment or relaying to take it offline and shut it down before it destroys itself?

Everything did what it was supposed to do but there must have been too much fuel left in the line. Now what they are saying, they suspect one of the mechanics that rebuild the fuel pumps did something wrong

OMG!

Operators!!!!! In the middle of the night they will call you and say,

POS - "We had a operation on a feeder"

Me - O. K., are there any customers calling in and complaining about no power?

POS - "uh, No"

Me - WHY THE HELL DID YOU CALL ME THEN??!!!

POS - "Uh, just to let you know."

And then you cant fall back to sleep.

Sir Nuke · 10-12-2010, 09:06 AM

well we have a small maintenance crew there 24/7, so we don't get called out unless something is REALLY wrong. Which is nice. BUT if we do, you can be assured, the FRESH FERTILIZER HAS HIT THE ROTARY OSCILATOR!!

What kind of cold air intake do they have, roto fab? blamming the operator is like how they always say pilot error. They are just machines.

Awesome thanks for the pictures, I learned something new today
