Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: Pump has a different vacuum line which is connected to the cargo tank well; vacuum pump is used to suck the oil out to make the well dry.
Framo cargo pumps utilize a specialized vacuum drain line connected to the tank well. By applying a vacuum, the system can clear the remaining cargo from the well even when the main pump has lost suction due to low levels.
