Fuel Feeding
Q. Dan, Are there any
requirements in the Joint’s standards
that indicate you can’t have generator
fuel fed from the same tank as the
boilers? J.F.
A. The Joint Commission doesn’t
address this issue specifically. NFPA
110, 5.5.1.1 addresses it at:
(I have always thought that the term
“enclosed” should be changed to
something more descriptive than
described at: 3.3.6.2 Enclosed
Fuel Tank. A fuel tank located
within a separate room, separated from
other equipment.)
The Joint however, can ask the hospital
if the proper precautions, fail-safes,
alarms, etc., have been installed to
prevent non-compliance with 5.5.1.1. |
