45
Q

by the operation of a pressure sensitive diaphragm

46
Q

During a routine pre flight check after A/C maintenance, there is no oxygen pressure to mask although the oxygen bottle pressure is 1800 PSI. What could be the cause;
a) This is normal because oxygen to the quick-donning harness is only supplied above 10000 ft
b) The oxygen bottle shut-off valve has not been reopened
c) The overboard discharge has been activated, the green indicator disc on the fuselage is missing

A

b) The oxygen bottle shut-off valve has not been reopened

47
Q
A

Whilst wearing an Oxygen mask

48
Q

Oxygen masks are left plugged into the regulator;
a) To prevent leaks from the regulator
b) For storage requirements
c) To enable the mask to operate as soon as it is fitted

A

c) To enable the mask to operate as soon as it is fitted

49
Q
A

To facilitate removal and installation

50
Q

In what position should the shutoff valve to the crew oxygen system be in for flight
a) Wire locked shut
b) Wire locked open
c) In the position selected by the crew

A

b) Wire locked open

51
Q
A

Pull down on their mask

52
Q
A

A guarded switch

53
Q

What stops inadvertent operation of drop-out oxygen equipment:
a) A switch and manual handle are guarded
b) There is nothing to stop inadvertent operation
c) The switch is in a hidden position

A

a) A switch and manual handle are guarded

54
Q
A

Must be 99.5% pure

55
Q
A

An aneroid capsule

56
Q

Oxygen flow is controlled relative to cabin altitude on a pneumatically operated system by:
a) an aneroid capsule which is exposed to cabin pressure
b) cabin pressurisation system
c) A valve on the oxygen bottle

A

a) an aneroid capsule which is exposed to cabin pressure

57
Q

It is suspected that leaks have developed in the aircraft’s oxygen system. Consequently, lines and fittings should be checked by:
a) Applying a coating of a neutral cleaning solvent on all suspected areas, as any leaks would cause the solvent to spread noticeably
b) Checking the tightness of all fittings with a torque wrench
c) Bubble testing, using a soap solution manufactured specifically for this purpose

A

c) Bubble testing, using a soap solution manufactured specifically for this purpose

58
Q
A

A non return valve

59
Q

Cockpit oxygen set to normal, oxygen is supplied to the mask only when the user breath in by the action of:
a) a diaphragm deflected by reduction of pressure
b) a shutoff valve in the mask
c) The operation of a on/off switch

A

a) a diaphragm deflected by reduction of pressure

60
Q
A

Light aluminium alloy

61
Q
A

To provide an oxygen reservoir

62
Q

How is the crew oxygen system protected against overpressure
a) The LP supply valve closes automatically if the supply pressure to the oxygen mask stowage boxes exceeds the limit
b) Oxygen will be discharged overboard if the pressure in the oxygen cylinder or low pressure supply system exceeds the limit
c) The flow indicator indicates over pressure in the oxygen mask

A

b) Oxygen will be discharged overboard if the pressure in the oxygen cylinder or low pressure supply system exceeds the limit

63
Q
A

Flows when inhaling

64
Q

Why would the pilot select 100% at the oxygen panel:
a) If the aircraft was pressurised
b) If the aircraft was full of smoke and fumes
c) If the aircraft was descending quickly

A

b) If the aircraft was full of smoke and fumes

65
Q
A
