    5.-Cap Sist. Combustible

    Uploaded by

    Ricardo Rubio
    The document summarizes the fuel system of a Bell 412 helicopter. It describes the 10 fuel cells used for storage, including their locations, capacities, and connections. It then explains the components that transfer and manage fuel flow, such as boost pumps, pressure switches, valves, and a crossfeed valve. The fuel management panel controls the engine fuel supply systems and airframe storage system. Fuel is sequenced between cells to minimize center of gravity changes during use.
