Fuel Systems

This page is intended as a guide just to show some typical fuel system installations.

System “A”

This system has a FS20x7-T Fuel Selector, a PX375-TC Fuel Boost Pump and two GAS375 Gascolators, one with the standard flow direction (Right to Left) and one with the reverse flow (Left to Right), mounted in the wing roots. Fitting a Gascolators in each wing root, rather than one in the centre console, allows for easier maintenance, and keeps any fuel odours from spills that may occur during maintenance outside of the cabin. Filtering fuel for the Fuel Boost Pump is a must, and the Gascolators perform dual roles of trapping any water and filtering the fuel for the Fuel Pump.

System “B”

This system has a FS20x7-T Fuel Selector, a PX375-TC Fuel Boost Pump and two FX375-M Fuel Filters mounted in the wing roots. As with System “A”, fitting two Filters in each wing root, rather than one in the centre console, allows for easier maintenance, and keeps any fuel odours from spills that may occur during maintenance outside of the cabin. Filtering the fuel for the Fuel

System “C”

This system has a EFS20b7-T Extension Fuel Selector, a PX375-TC Fuel Boost Pump and two GAS375 Gascolators, one with the standard flow direction (Right to Left) and one with the reverse flow (Left to Right), mounted in the wing roots. Again, fitting a Gascolators in each wing root, rather than one in the centre console, allows for easier maintenance, and keeps any fuel odours from spills that may occur during maintenance outside of the cabin. Filtering fuel for the Fuel Boost Pump is a must, and the Gascolators perform dual roles of trapping any water and filtering the fuel for the Fuel Pump.
