Control Oil (CO) Flashcards
What does the Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir provide ?
Stores & supplies control oil for system
How is temperature maintained in the Hydraulic Reservoir ?
Two electric heater fan units for Hydraulic Fluid Temperature Control
When are the Hydraulic Heater Fans turned on ?
Operated automatically by temperature controller to maintain >85F
What do the reservoirs Temperature Indicating Controllers do ? What is the temperature of the Hydraulic fluid returning to reservoir ?
-Control position of Hydraulic Fluid Cooler Inlet Valves
-Hydraulic Fluid returning is approx. 115F
Which pump is used to drain & fill reservoir ? Where is the Hydraulic Oil pumped from to fill reservoir ?
-Hydraulic Fluid Filtering pump
-Pumped from 55 Gallon Hydraulic Barrels
What is reservoir level normally maintained at ?
Maintained between -2” to +2”
What must be done to the 55 gallon barrel before adding it to reservoir ?
Barrel must be heated by a strap-on wrap-around heaters
When do the Reservoir Heater & Fans energize when in auto ?
-Heaters & fans energize when temperature drops below 85F
When do the Heaters & fans denergize when switch is in auto ?
-Heater denergize when reservoir temperature reaches 85F
-Fans will run for 10 minutes to cool heaters once temperate reaches 85
What happens when you take the Heater & Fan switch to the start position ?
Fans will start, but the heaters won’t start regardless of temperate
What is the Reservoir Air Dryer used for ?
Removes moisture from air breathed by Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir during power operation
How does Reservoir Air Dryer work?
It uses a Alumina desiccant to remove moisture from reservoir
What does the Stealth Control Oil Reservoir Conditioner/Dryer do?
Injects .2 SCFM of air from instrument air into air dryer to blanket reservoir to exclude moisture & contaminants
What indications do you have on the pre filter indications for the air dryer supplying air to blanket reservoir ?
Green-less than 15psid
Orange-greater or equal to 15psid
Red-greater or equal to 25psid
What do the Hydraulic Fluid Pumps maintain Control Oil System pressure at ?
Maintains 1600psig for use of Stop Valves, Control Valves, & Combined Intermediate Valves
Where are the Main Hydraulic powered from ?
Powered 480Load center (NG)
How does the Main Hydraulic Pumps maintain constant system pressure ?
Pump varies its stroke to meet demand & constant pressure
What does the Auxiliary pump do ?
Takes suction from Control Oil Reservoir to cool & lubricate main Hydraulic Fluid Pump
