Operation

A

When a door is opened with the slide armed, the pneumatic system forces the door fully open. Because the slide girt bar is held in floor latches, the slide is pulled out of its container and will fall outside the aircraft. When the slide has dropped approximately 15” (38 cms), it will inflate automatically.

Method of Detaching and Separating From The Aircraft

A

Step 1 – To detach the slide from the girt, pull on the girt cover to expose the white detach handle
Step 2– Pull the white DETACH HANDLE completely free of the slide (until the slide is unlaced from the girt extension). When detached from the girt the slide is still connected to the aircraft by a mooring line which has one end tied to the girt bar.
Step 3 – To Separate the mooring line
To SEPERATE the mooring line cut the line with the hook knife. To use the the knife remove from its stowage. The Blade is curved with a single cutting edge on the inside. Always replace the knife in its stowage after use.
The mooring line will break if the aircraft sinks before it can be cut.

Authorizes testing of blinker operation, regulator supply, system sealing downstream of the valve, regulator sealing and operation.
3 - OXY ON FLAG -Appears once the oxygen supply valve is opened and the left flap door is closed.

155
Q

Description of Flight Deck Oxygen Mask

A

1 - Red Grips
Squeezing the (red) Right Hand Side grip unlocks the two-flap door and authorizes harness inflation.
2 - EMERGENCY pressure selector
This selector creates an overpressure, which eliminates condensation and prevents smoke, smell, or ashes from entering the mask.
Pressing this knob generates an overpressure for a few seconds.
Turning the knob in the direction of the arrow, generates a permanent overpressure.
Note: Overpressure supply is automatically started, when cabin altitude exceeds 30,000 feet. 3 - N/100% Selector
100% the mask delivers 100% oxygen ON DEMAND. The system is locked in this position when selected. When pressed the lever is released.
N- An air and oxygen supply will be given with the selector in Normal position (the content of which varies with cabin altitude).
Emergency & 100%- CONTINUOUS FLOW

Above 35,000 ft the air inlet is closed to give a 100% oxygen supply

156
Q

To access oxygen masks, open cover then carry out the following actions.

A
  1. Take the mask by squeezing the red grip and keep the red grip pressed.
  2. Remove the mask. The harness inflates,
  3. Don the mask (harness inflated).
  4. Release the red grips. The harness deflates and maintains the mask.
157
Q

The PIC & SIC seats are identical except the controls are on the opposite side.

A

All controls levers are on the inboard side of the seats. Opposite seat controls have the same functions.

158
Q

The cabin’s fixed oxygen system supplies oxygen to the occupants (passengers and Cabin Crew), in case of cabin depressurization.

A

Each chemical oxygen unit is made up of a solid-state chemical generator. Each generator feeds a group of 3 or 4 masks. Flexible supply hoses connect the masks to the chemical generators. The temperature of the generators reaches 180o F during Oxygen flow. Therefore, the smell of burning or smoke may be associated with the normal operation of the chemical generators.

159
Q

Generators and mask are installed in containers above the passenger seats (PSU) in the cabin, in the lavatories (ceiling) and at each Cabin Crew station. The chemical generators are activated when the mask is pulled down. Pulling one mask down causes all the masks in that unit to drop and oxygen flows to all masks.

A

A green in-line indicator is visible in the transparent oxygen hose whenever oxygen is flowing to the mask. Oxygen flows for minimum 15 minutes and cannot be shut off.
All “PROHIBITION OF PED” and “FASTEN SEAT BELT” signs come on automatically if the cabin altitude should exceed 11,300 ft. or if the cabin oxygen system is deployed. A taped emergency message is broadcast over the PA system when the oxygen system is activated.

160
Q

The chemical reaction used for Oxygen generation creates heat. Therefore, the smell of burning or smoke may be associated with the normal operation of the chemical generators.

A

ONCE ACTIVATED, OXYGEN GENERATION CANNOT BE STOPPED.
DO NOT RESTORE AN OXYGEN MASK, IF THE OXYGEN GENERATOR IS STARTED IN ORDER TO PREVENT THE SMELL OF BURNING OR FUMES

161
Q

This continuous flow mask provides oxygen due to the loss of cabin pressurization during an emergency descent. It is made up of the following components:

A
  1. Face piece
  2. Reservoir bag
  3. Elastic head strap
  4. Flexible supply hose with Oxygen flow indicator
162
Q

The number of oxygen masks contained in the unit is written on the __

A

door stop

163
Q

Location of Passenger Oxygen Units

A

To test the Oxygen units electrical unlocking system, THE ‘MASK MAN ON’ p/b is pressed in the Flight Deck panel. To prevent the oxygen masks from falling, the door stops on all oxygen containers have to be pulled down and turned 90 degrees clockwise. Then, unit snaps open, but does not drop.

164
Q

Preflight Check

A

Check that the doorstop is in normal position, flush with the door. If the PSU door stop is in the test position (protruding) report to SCCM.
On some aircraft the oxygen flow indicator is located at the base of the reservoir bag.

165
Q

Drop Down of the Oxygen Mask
The oxygen mask in the cabin may be dropped down in three ways:

A
  1. Automatically, at a cabin altitude of approximately 14,000 ft.
  2. Electrically, by using the switch (MASK MAN ON) on the pilot’s overhead panel.
  3. Manually, by inserting the MRT or any pointed object in the access hole.
166
Q

Oxygen System - Flight Deck Panel

A

1 - MASK MAN ON p/b (Guarded in the AUTO position)
AUTO: Oxygen mask/unit doors open automatically when cabin altitude exceeds 14000 ft (+500ft). An
automatic Announcement to passenger is made through the Passenger Address.
DEPRESSED: Oxygen mask drops down. An Announcement to passengers is made through the Passenger Address.
2 - PASSENGER SYSTEM ON light
Illuminates white when the oxygen masks unit doors is activated.

167
Q

Activation Of Chemical Generators

A

The chemical generators are activated when the mask is pulled down. Pulling one mask down causes all the masks in that unit to drop and oxygen flows to all masks. A green in-line indicator is visible in the transparent oxygen hose whenever oxygen is flowing to the mask. Oxygen flows for approx. 15 minutes and cannot be shut off.

168
Q

Fitting The Mask

A

When the drop out occurs, pull the nearest mask down and place it over the nose and mouth. Fit the elastic headband over your head.

169
Q

171
Q

The system philosophy makes it easy to change the cabin layout because CIDS hardware provides spare inputs, outputs and circuits. This allows the connection of new and/or additional cabin equipment without a change of CIDS hardware components. If any equipment is changed, only the CIDS software database has to be updated.

In order to optimize the handling of the handset and to minimize problems with low level announcements, use the handset like a normal telephone handset.

282
Q

INTERPHONE POLICY

A

Cabin Crew should not hold the handset upside-down during announcements. Used upside-down the sensitivity of the handset is the least. The output level as well as the effect of the noise-cancelling feature is reduced.

Announcements can be hardly heard in the cabin or may be impossible to understand.

Do not stretch the handset cord over 2 meters (80 inches). This may cause damage to the cord supports at both ends of the cord and will lead to handset malfunction.

In order to avoid problems with broken housings, place the handset on the support bracket and push it gently to “click” it into its correct position. This way the handset will stay in its position under normal conditions.
If not placed correctly in the support bracket, the handset may fall out of its cradle, onto the cabin floor, and will be damaged.
