  • Cabin Temp Panel control of upper deck inhibited
  • PTC A selected
  • PTC B (auto and manual) inhibited
22
Q

AFT CARGO HT air source?

A

Center section of bleed air duct. (Bleed air manifold)

23
Q

What does MANUAL selector position of the temp controllers do?

A

Sets trim air valves manually.

24
Q

On power up, what is the target temp for flight deck and crew rest areas?

25
Q

Trim air in not available to the flight deck, upper deck, main deck system if?

A
  • Trim Air Switch OFF

- Center Section of bleed duct isolated.

26
Q

How many Pack Temp Controllers (PTCs) are there?

A

Two - A and B

27
Q

How many channels does each PTC have?

A

Each PTC has three channels. One for each pack.

28
Q

What happens when a PTC detects a fault in pack channel?

A

Control is switched to other PTC.

29
Q

How is pack operation for a failed PTC restored?

A

Push the Pack Reset Switch

30
Q

What happens if a fault or overheat of a PTC is detected?

A

Respective pack valve closes resulting is pack shutdown.

31
Q

Center duct air provided for?

A
  • PACK 2
  • TRIM AIR
  • AFT CARGO HEAT
  • Cargo Smoke Detectors
  • Potable Water Vacuum Air
  • LL cargo TRIM AIR
32
Q

Generally speaking, how is the air temp regulated in each of the 7 zones?

A

A modulation valve in each individual air duct allows varying amounts of trim air to mix with the conditioned air.

33
Q

Do all 3 PACKS try to regulate their respective air to different temperatures?

A

NO. They have a common discharged temperature based on the zone demanding the lowest supply temp.

34
Q

How can we reset the LL air temp system (3)?

A
  • LLCCAFR OFF then back ON
  • ZONE RESET Switch
  • Turn Temp Selector to MANUAL then back to AUTO
35
Q

Under what conditions would trim air be unavailable to the flight deck, upper deck, crew rest, and main deck?

A
  • EICAS advisory TEMP ZONE is displayed.
  • Center section of the bleed duct is isolated.
  • EICAS Advisory message TRIM AIR OFF is displayed.
  • The Master Trim Air switch is OFF
36
Q

If TRIM AIR in not available to the flight deck, upper deck, or main deck (for the 4 reasons below ) how is temperature controlled in the cabin?

EICAS TEMP ZONE
Center section isolated
EICAS TRIM AIR OFF
Master Trim air switch is off

A

Backup Mode

  • If Flight Deck Temp selector avail to PTC, packs regulated to achieve temp set by selector 18 C to 29C
  • If Flight Deck Temp selector not avail to PTC, packs regulate to achieve last temp set
  • If last temp set unavailable to PTC, packs regulated to achieve avg flight deck temp of 24C
37
Q

L/R duct air provided for?

A
  • WAI
  • LE Flaps
  • HYD Reservoir and Pressure (L 1&2, R 3&4)
  • HYD Demand Pump
  • PACK 1 (L duct) & PACK 3 (R duct )
38
Q

If a duct section is isolated and L/R valve closed, how will LE flaps extend?

A

Isolated side will extend electrically while opposite side extends normally with available pneumatic air.

NOTE There will be asymmetry until both are fully extended.

39
Q

Is trim air for the LLCs supplied by controlling the Master Trim Air Valve?

A

NO

- Trim air for the LLCs is provided directly from the bleed air duct. (Bleed air manifold )

40
Q

Pack HI FLOW button logic?

A

ON - All PACKS in HI FLOW

OFF - PACK HI FLOW dependent on LLCCAFR

41
Q

PACK RST Switch used for?

A
  • Resets PACK fault protection system
  • Restarts PACK after auto-

SYS FAULT in amber when overheat or other system fault

42
Q

What happens if we turn a specific PACK selector to OFF?

A
  • CLOSE the PACK Valve
  • Extinguish SYS FAULT Light for the PACK RST Button
  • Resets Pack Fault Protection
43
Q

When the LLCCARF Switch is OFF, what controls PACK outlet temperature?

A

The flight deck, upper deck, or main deck temperature zone requiring the coolest temperature.

44
Q

When the LLCCARF Switch is in FWD HI, what happens to PACK outlet temperature?

A
  • PACK 3 maintains FWD LLC at temp set by selector
  • Flight deck, upper deck, or main deck temperature zone requiring coolest temperate controls PACK outlet temperature of PACKS 1 and 2.
45
Q

When the LLCCARF Switch is in AFT HI, what happens to PACK outlet temperature?

A
  • PACK 2 maintains AFT LLC at temp set by selector

- zone ( FD/UD/CR/MD TEMP ) requiring coolest temperate controls PACK outlet temperature of PACKS 1 and 3.

46
Q

When the LLCCARF Switch is in LOW, what happens to PACK outlet temperature?

A
  • Outlet temp of PACK supplying respective LLC won’t be higher than outlet temperature of other 2 PACKS.
  • The respective LLC temperature is regulated by closing the TRIM AIR MODULATING VALVE and supplying cooler air from the pack supplying air to the compartment or modulating the CARGO TRIM AIR VALVE to supply warmer air.
47
Q

Trim Air is not available for the FWD LLC if?

A
  • Center duct isolated
  • FWD LLC zone duct overheat occurred
  • FWD LLC Cargo Trim Air Valve CLOSED
48
Q

If Trim Air is not available for the FWD LLC, what occurs?

A

BACKUP MODE:

  • If FWD LLC Temp selector setting is avail to PTC, PACK 3 is regulated to achieve the set temp.
  • If FWD LLC Temp selector setting is not avail to PTC, PACK 3 outlet temp is regulated to achieve the temp sensed when backup mode was initiated.
  • If FWD LLC temperature is unavailable to the PTC, PACK 3 outlet temp is controlled to the outlet temperature sensed when backup mode was initiated.
49
Q

If Trim Air is not available for the AFT LLC, what occurs?

A

IT’S IDENTICAL TO FWD LLC TRIM AIR LOSS BUT USES PACK 2 INSTEAD OF 3!
