Q

If the air conditioning pack fails what does the PSC automatically do?

A

It engages the pack backup operational mode and controls cabin and cockpit temperature. AOM 9-02-50

17
Q

What is ram air ventilation used for?

A

Non-pressurized flight or for smoke evacuation. AOM 9-02-50

18
Q

A

In case of loss of the air condition PACK and the PACK backup systems. AOM 9-02-50

19
Q

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

A

Through the DUMP button on the PRESSURIZATION control panel. AOM 9-02-50

20
Q

How is the Cargo Heating System operated?

A

Automatically by the PSC. AOM 9-02-55

21
Q

When is the main cabin door pressurized seal inflated?

A

After takeoff. AOM 9-02-60

22
Q

How can the outflow valve be modulated?

A

Either automatically or manually. AOM 9-02-70

23
Q

What position are the Negative and Positive Pressure Relief Valves (NPRV and PRV) normally in?

A

Closed. AOM 9-02-70

24
Q

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

A

Manual control of the pressurization system through the CABIN ALT knob. AOM 9-02-30

25
Q

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

A

50 FPM steps. AOM 9-02-30

26
Q

What happens when the DUMP button is pressed in the automatic mode of operation?

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 air door is opened. AOM 9-02-70

27
Q

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

A
