Air Systems Flashcards
what are the 3 sources of high pressure air
Engine bleed Air, Apu bleed, external air
Pnuematic system supplies
Air conditioning/pressurization, engine starting, wing and engine anti-ice, hydraulic reservoir head pressure
Isol valve is only a manual valve?
True (Open and Close)
Describe the “bleed air malfunction” HI STAGE light illumination
At low idle settings, low bleed air may not be enough and can kick to h bleed automatically (no indication of this). If high bleed over pressures the system HI STAGE illuminates and auto locks hi stage bleed valve closed
L or R Eng Bleed Air amber message means
Automatically due to system fault, the switch is off, the engine is not running.
Can APU bleed air be ran for anti-ice operation
NO
Can you use one air start cart for engine starting?
Yes, but only if it has two connections or hoses. Also can use two carts, both having one hose.
Leak detection loops protect which areas
APU, L/R and Crossover
What indications of a duct overheat
Caution Beeper, BLD Duct Leak on eicas, DUCT leak on overhead
767 - how many ducts?
L isol, R isol, C isol, not automatic
How many controllers for pressurization?
2 auto controllers.
What indications that both controllers have failed
Auto INOP light illuminates
When does cabin altitude light illuminate and extinguish?
C A exceeds 10,000 ft and when it returns below 8,500 ft.
What 4 pieces of date do controllers use?
ADS for ambient pressure, selected cabin auto rate, takeoff alt, selected landing alt
What does the auto rate set at index for preflight indicate?
500fpm climb and 300 fpm descent
How is the outflow valve controlled?
auto = AC and Manual = DC
