INTRODUCTION

PQS PROGRAM

This PQS program is a qualification system for officers and enlisted personnel where certification of a minimum level of competency is required prior to qualifying to perform specific duties. A PQS is a compilation of the minimum knowledge and skills that an individual must demonstrate in order to qualify to stand watches or perform other specific routine duties necessary for the safety, security or proper operation of a ship, aircraft or support system. The objective

CANCELLATION

This Standard cancels and supersedes NAVEDTRA 43288-B.

APPLICABILITY

This PQS is applicable to all fuel handlers ashore.

MODEL MANAGER

The Model Manager Command manages a specific PQS manual. This includes overseeing the process of monitoring and updating assigned PQS manuals from the standpoint of technical content and relevance within the community.

TAILORING

To command tailor this package, first have it reviewed by one or more of your most qualified individuals. Delete any portions covering systems and equipment not installed on your ship, aircraft or unit. Next, add any line items, fundamentals, systems and watchstations/workstations that are unique to your command but not already covered in this package. Finally, the package should be reviewed by the cognizant department head and required changes approved by the Commanding Officer or his designated representative. Retain the approved master copy on file for use in tailoring individual packages.

INTRODUCTION (CONT’D)

QUALIFIER

The PQS Qualifier is designated in writing by the Commanding Officer to sign off individual watchstations. Qualifiers will normally be E-5 or above and, as a minimum, must have completed the PQS they are authorized to sign off. The names of designated Qualifiers should be made known to all members of the unit or department. The means of maintaining this listing is at the discretion of individual commands. For more information on the duties and responsibilities of PQS Qualifiers, see the PQS Management Guide.

CONTENTS

PQS is divided into three sections. The 100 Section (Fundamentals) contains the fundamental knowledge from technical manuals and other texts necessary to satisfactorily understand the watchstation/workstation duties. The 200 Section (Systems) is designed to acquaint you with the systems you will be required to operate at your watchstation/workstation. The 300 Section (Watchstations) lists the tasks you will be required to satisfactorily perform in order to achieve final PQS qualification for a particular watchstation/workstation. All three sections may not apply to this PQS, but where applicable, detailed explanations are provided at the front of each section.

REFERENCES

The references used during the writing of this PQS package were the latest available to the workshop, however, the most current references available should be used when qualifying with this Standard.

NOTES

Classified references may be used in the development of PQS. If such references are used, do not make notes in this book as answers to questions in this Standard may be classified.

TRAINEE

Your supervisor will tell you which watchstations/workstations you are to complete and in what order. Before getting started, turn to the 300 Section first and find your watchstation/workstation.

This will tell you what you should do before starting your watchstation/workstation tasks. You may be required to complete another PQS, a school, or other watchstations/workstations within this package. It will also tell you which fundamentals and/or systems from this package you must complete prior to qualification at your watchstation/workstation. If you have any questions or are unable to locate references, contact your supervisor or qualifier. Good luck!

100 INTRODUCTION TO FUNDAMENTALS

100.1 INTRODUCTION

This PQS begins with a Fundamentals section covering the basic knowledge and principles needed to understand the equipment or duties to be studied. Normally, you would have acquired the knowledge required in the Fundamentals section during the school phase of your training. If you have not been to school or if you need a refresher, the references listed at the beginning of each fundamental will aid you in a self-study program. All references cited for study are selected according to their credibility and availability.

100.2 HOW TO COMPLETE

The fundamentals you will have to complete are listed in the watchstation (300 section) for each watchstation. You should complete all required fundamentals before starting the systems and watchstation portions of this PQS, since knowledge gained from fundamentals will aid you in understanding the systems and your watchstation tasks. When you feel you have a complete understanding of one fundamental or more, contact your Qualifier. If you are attempting initial qualification, your Qualifier will expect you to satisfactorily answer all line items in the fundamentals before signing off completion of that fundamental. If you are requalifying or have completed the appropriate schools, your Qualifier may require you to answer representative line items to determine if you have retained the necessary knowledge for your watchstation. If your command requires an oral board or written examination for final qualification, you may be asked any questions from the fundamentals required for your watchstation.

200 INTRODUCTION TO SYSTEMS

200.1 BASIC BUILDING BLOCKS

In this section, the equipment is broken down into smaller, more comprehensible, functional systems as basic building blocks in the learning process. Each system is written to reflect specific watchstation requirements by identifying the equipment most relevant to one or more designated watchstanders. The less complex systems may be identified and covered quickly or relegated to a lower priority to permit greater emphasis on more significant or complex systems.

200.2 COMPONENTS AND COMPONENT PARTS

For learning purposes each system is disassembled into two levels. Systems have components and components have parts. Do not expect to see every item which appears on a parts list to be in the PQS. Only those items which must be understood for operation/maintenance are listed. Normally a number of very broad (overview) systems are disassembled into their components or parts with the big picture as the learning goal. Items listed as components in such a system may then be analyzed as separate systems and broken down into components and parts.

Example: the turbogenerators may be listed as a component of the Ship’s Service Electrical Distribution system and then later detailed as an individual system for closer study.

200.3 FORMAT

Each system is organized within the following format:

• It lists the references to be used for study and asks you to explain the function of each system.

• It asks for the static facts of what or where the components and component parts are in relation to the system.

• It directs attention to the dynamics of how the component and component parts operate to make the system function.

• It specifies the parameters that must be immediately recalled.

• It requires study of the relationship between the system being studied and other systems or areas.

200.4 HOW TO COMPLETE

The systems you must complete are listed in the Prerequisites section of each watchstation. When you have mastered one or more systems, contact your Qualifier. The Qualifier will give you an oral examination on each system and, if satisfied you have sufficient knowledge of the system, will sign the appropriate system line items. You will be expected to demonstrate through oral or written examination a thorough understanding of each system required for your watchstation.

300 INTRODUCTION TO WATCHSTATIONS

300.1 INTRODUCTION

The Watchstation section of your PQS is where you get a chance to demonstrate to your Qualifier that you can put the knowledge you have gained in the previous sections to use. It allows you to practice the tasks required for your watchstation and to handle abnormal conditions and emergencies. Before starting your assigned tasks, you must complete the prerequisites that pertain to the performance of that particular task. Satisfactory completion of all prerequisites is required prior to achievement of final watchstation qualification.

300.2 FORMAT

Each watchstation in this section contains:

• A FINAL QUALIFICATION PAGE, which is used to obtain the required signatures for approval and recording of Final Qualification.

• PREREQUISITES, which are items that must be certified completed before you can begin qualification for a particular watchstation. Prerequisites may include schools, watchstation qualifications from other PQS books, and fundamentals, systems, or watchstation qualifications from this book. Prior to signing off each prerequisite line item, the Qualifier must verify completion from existing records. Record the date of actual completion, not the sign-off date.

• WATCHSTATION Performance, which is the practical factors portion of your qualification. The performance is broken down as follows:

Tasks (routine operating tasks…
