16
Q

If the AC pack fails, what does the PSC automatically do

A

It engages the pack backup operational mode and controls cabin and cockpit temp

17
Q

What is ram air ventilation used for

A

No pressurized flight or for smoke evacuation.

18
Q

When will the PSC command the emergency RAM air door to open

A

In the case of loss of the AC pack and backup pack systems.

19
Q

How can the emergency RAM air door be manually commanded to open

A

Through the DUMP button on the PRESSURIZATION control panel

20
Q

How is the Cargo heating system operated

A

Automatically by the PSC

21
Q

When is the main door pressurization seal inflated

A

After Takeoff

22
Q

How can the outflow valve be modulated

A

Either automatically or manually.

23
Q

What position are the negative and positive pressure relief valves (NPRV and PRV) normally in

A

Closed

24
Q

What does pushing the MODE selector button on the PRESSURIZATION panel allow for

A

Manual control of the pressurization system through the CABIN ALT knob.

25
Q

What is the cabin altitude rate of change when moving the CABIN ALT knob UP or DN

A

50/ FT min steps

26
Q

What happens when the DUMP button is pressed in the automatic mode of operations.

A

The cabin is depressurized at a constant rate of change of 2,000 ft/ min up to 12,000 ft and the emergency RAM door is opened.

27
Q

What happens when when the DUMP button is pressed in the manual mode of operations

A

The cabin rate of change will increase with the duration of the dump command, until either the command is removed or the altitude limit function disables it when the cabin alt reaches 14,800 ft +- 200 ft. The emergency RAM door air is also opened.
