ERJ-175

FUEL SYSTEM

TANKS

2 integral fuel tanks, each divided into a surge, main and collector tank, interconnected by a crossfeed valve

RIGHT TANK

1 Ejector Pump

1 AC Fuel Pump (AC ESS BUS)

1 DC Pump (DC ESS BUS 2)

3 Scavenge pumps

LEFT TANK

1 Ejector Pump

1 AC Fuel Pump (AC BUS 1)

3 Scavenge pumps

TANKS

Ejector Pumps - Primary - Motive flow- Transfers fuel from Collector to engine

AC Fuel Pumps - Backup to Ejector - Can supply fuel to both engines from single tank during crossfeed

Scavenge Pumps - 3 in each main tank - Maintain fuel level in collector tank

DC Fuel Pump- Provides pressurized fuel for normal APU operation and engine start

DISTRIBUTION

From the fuel truck - The ERJ 175 can be fueled at the refueling/defueling control panel under the right wing if the aircraft has AC or battery power (Hot Batt Bus) OR by using gravity refueling ports located on the top of each wing. Quantity can be checked by referencing the EICAS or magnetic level indicators located under each wing.

*cannot achieve max fuel by pressure refueling alone, must top tanks off by gravity refueling*

DISTRIBUTION

Engine and APU start - AC fuel pumps are used to supply fuel to engines during engine start. A DC Fuel Pump can be used to supply fuel to the APU or engine 2 during start without AC Power.

Tank to engine - Fuel is transferred from the main tank to the collector tank by scavenge pumps. Using motive flow, Ejector pumps move fuel from the collector to the engine.

INDICATIONS

EICAS - Displays Fuel flow per engine, fuel quantity per engine, and total fuel quantity.

Individual Fuel Tank low
