CH3 ANTI ICE RAIN Flashcards
What does the OFF position of the WING ANTI-ICE Selector indicate?
The wing ice protection system is not powered
With flaps out of up, stick shaker logic returns to normal if no icing conditions have been detected for a certain time and TAT is greater than 10° C.
How is the WING ANTI-ICE Selector switched to OFF?
The switch must be pulled during rotation from AUTO to OFF
What happens when the WING ANTI-ICE Selector is in AUTO position?
The wing ice protection system is powered on and off automatically
WITH FLAPS OUT OF UP
Stick shaker logic is set for icing conditions when icing conditions have been detected and TAT is 10° C or less.
What is the function of the ON position in the WING ANTI-ICE Selector?
The wing ice protection system is powered on and operates without input from automatic ice detection system TAT less than 25° C.
WITH FLAPS OUT OF UP STICK SHAKER LOGIC IS SET FOR ICING CONDITIONS
What occurs to stick shaker logic when the airplane lands?
Stick shaker logic returns to normal regardless of switch position
What does the OFF position of the ENGINE ANTI-ICE Selector indicate?
The engine anti-ice valves are commanded closed
With flaps out of up, stick shaker logic returns to normal if no icing conditions have been detected for a certain time and TAT is greater than 10° C.
What happens when the ENGINE ANTI-ICE Selector is in AUTO position?
The engine anti-ice valves are opened or closed automatically by the ice detection system
Fill in the blank: The stick shaker logic is set for icing conditions when TAT is ______.
10° C or less
WITH FLAPS OUT OF UP
True or False: In the ON position of the WING ANTI-ICE Selector, the system requires input from the automatic ice detection system.
False
What condition prompts stick shaker logic to return to normal with the wing anti-ice system?
No icing conditions have been detected for a certain time and TAT is greater than 10° C
This applies when flaps are out of up.
What does the Anti-Ice Panel indicate when ON?
The engine anti-ice valves are commanded open and stick shaker logic is set for icing conditions
Stick shaker logic returns to normal when the airplane lands, regardless of switch position.
What happens to the stick shaker logic when the flaps are out of up?
It is set for icing conditions.
What does a displayed (green) Engine Anti-ice Indication (EAD) mean?
The engine anti-ice system is on.
What does the OFF position indicate for the BACKUP WINDOW HEAT switch?
The backup window heat anti-fogging system is off.
What happens when the BACKUP WINDOW HEAT switch is in the ON position?
Backup window heat anti-fogging is commanded on for the selected windows if the primary window heat system fails.
What does the ON position of the WINDOW HEAT switch signify?
Window heat is applied to the selected windows.
What does an illuminated INOP (inoperative) indicator on the WINDOW HEAT switch mean?
It indicates that either the switch is off, an overheat is detected, or a system fault has occurred.
What are the positions of the WIPER Selectors?
- OFF
- INT (intermittent)
- LOW
- HIGH
OFF means the wiper is stowed vertically; INT means the wiper operates intermittently; LOW means the wiper operates at low speed; HIGH means the wiper operates at high speed.
What does the WASHER Switch do?
Push (momentary action) - fluid is sprayed on windshield until switch is released
This means the washer operates only while the switch is being pressed.
List the components included in the anti-ice and rain systems.
- automatic ice detection
- engine anti-ice
- wing anti-ice
- pack inlet anti-ice
- flight deck window heat
- windshield wipers and washers
- probe heat
What is the function of the automatic ice detection system?
It senses the existence of icing conditions and provides signals to control the engine, wing, and pack inlet anti-ice
The system uses two icing condition detectors that measure liquid water content.
What data do the icing condition detectors use to determine if icing conditions exist?
TAT and other data information and temperature sources
What happens to the icing condition detectors after engine start?
Both detectors are heated electrically
What EICAS message is displayed if the automatic ice detection system fails?
ICE DETECTORS
When is automatic ice detection inhibited?
On the ground below 75 knots
