AOG 1 Flashcards
Caution regarding fuel source temperature
Damage to APU fuel components may occur if fuel source temperature is
greater than 57 °C (135 °F).
Note regarding when the APU is started using battery power only
When the APU is started using battery power only, there is no indication on the electrical metering panel that the APU generator has come online and is ready to be selected. Both the frequency and voltage readings are zero until the APU generator is placed online.
Note regarding APU start cycle and APU EGT indications
During the APU start cycle, the APU EGT indicationmay fluctuate from 0 to 1,100 °C prior to normal EGT rise. This indication has no adverse effect on starting the APU. It is not necessary to monitor EGT during start.
Note regarding APU FUALT light during start
APU FAULT light may momentarily illuminate during start
Note regarding indications of an APU fire warning
Flight deck fire warning bell sounds and APU fire warning horn in main wheelwell sounds
Note regarding when the APU fire extinguisher is armed
Armed only if APU fire control handle at this panel
is pulled.
Warning regarding APU failure to starting condition while fueling
If there is a protective automatic shutdown of theAPUor a failure to start condition, do not try to start the APU again during the fueling operation.
Injury to personnel or damage to equipment may occur.

Warning regarding when applying external power or APU generator power
When applying external power or APU generator power, the standby
hydraulic pump can operate for approximately 4 seconds and may move the
rudder and/or thrust reversers. To prevent possible injury, ensure the rudder
and thrust reversers are clear of personnel before applying power
