Question 226General Subjects - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is C) The unit would not be able to transition from ending the separation processing mode to initiating the oil discharge mode. This is because the lower oil/water interface detection probe is used to determine when the oil layer has been sufficiently separated from the water, allowing the system to transition from the separation processing mode to the oil discharge mode. If this probe is faulty, the system would not be able to reliably detect when the separation is complete, preventing it from moving to the oil discharge phase. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not directly relate to the function of the lower oil/water interface detection probe. The probe's primary role is to signal the transition between separation processing and oil discharge, not the other modes mentioned in the other answer choices.
