What would be the indication, if only ENG1 fire detector loop “A” was faulty?
(a) ECAM message ENG1 LOOP A FAULT
(b) No indication until a fire test is carried out
(c) ECAM message ENG1 LOOP A FAULT, single chime and master caution
(a) ECAM message ENG1 LOOP A FAULT
How long will the red APU FIRE pb on the overhead be illuminated?
(a) It will be illuminated as long as the fire warning is present
(b) Until the crew pushes and releases the guarded red APU FIRE pb
(c) Until the crew pushes the red master warn pb
(a) It will be illuminated as long as the fire warning is present
Pushing and releasing an ENG FIRE Pb will perform numerous functions, these include:
a. Silence the aural fire warning, closes the low and high pressure fuel valves, arms the fire extinguisher squibs, closes the hydraulic fire valve and closes the pack flow control valve.
b. Silence the aural fire warning, closes the high pressure fuel valve, arms the fire extinguisher squibs, closes the hydraulic fire valve and closes the pack flow control valve.
c. Silence the aural fire warning, arms the fire extinguisher squibs, closes the low pressure fuel valve, closes the hydraulic fire shutoff valve, closes the engine bleed valve, closes the pack flow control valve, cuts off FADEC power supply, deactivates the IDG.
c. Silence the aural fire warning, arms the fire extinguisher squibs, closes the low pressure fuel valve, closes the hydraulic fire shutoff valve, closes the engine bleed valve, closes the pack flow control valve, cuts off FADEC power supply, deactivates the IDG.
How long will the red APU fire Pb on the overhead be illuminated?
(a) It will be illuminated as long as the fire warning is present
(b) Until the crew pushes and releases the guarded red APU fire Pb
(c) Until the crew pushes the red master warn Pb
If an APU fire is detected in flight:
a. An automatic APU shutdown and agent discharge will occur.
b. An automatic APU shutdown will occur; manual agent discharge is required.
c. The APU Fire Pb must be pressed.
c. The APU Fire Pb must be pressed.
What operations/actions are required for smoke detected in the avionics compartment?
a. When smoke is detected immediate actions include setting the Vent Extract pb to OVRD with or without ECAM activation, however, after the ECAM is displayed the ECAM checklist must be followed even if non avionics smoke is suspected.
b. When air conditioning smoke is suspected the crew should set the Vent Extract pb to OVRD and may continue with the paper checklist or switch to the ECAM procedure when displayed.
c. The Vent Extract pb should be set to OVRD once Emergency Electrical Configuration has been established.
a. When smoke is detected immediate actions include setting the Vent Extract pb to OVRD with or without ECAM activation, however, after the ECAM is displayed the ECAM checklist must be followed even if non avionics smoke is suspected. QRH
What is the cockpit indication if number 1 fire bottle had discharged due to thermal expansion?
(a) Agent 1 SQUIB and DISCH lights illuminated
(b) Agent 1 DISCH light illuminated
(c) Agent 1 and 2 DISCH lights illuminated and ECAM warning
In the event of smoke in the cabin, several actions are available.
Which of the following apply?
a. The cockpit window should not be opened unless dense smoke persists in the cockpit and the aircraft is at FL100.
b. The cockpit window should not be opened before the RAM AIR Pb is selected to “OFF” and the aircraft altitude is FL100.
c. Packs should be selected to LO to reduce ventilation and decrease the cabin altitude.
a. The cockpit window should not be opened unless dense smoke persists in the cockpit and the aircraft is at FL100.
How are aural or visual warnings cancelled with an ENG FIRE?
a. The aural warning stops when the ENG MASTER switch is selected OFF.
b. The ENG FIRE Pb light will extinguish when the Pb is pressed.
c. The aural warning stops when the ENG FIRE Pb is pushed.
b. The ENG FIRE Pb light will extinguish when the Pb is pressed.
