32
Q

What is the Cabin/Flight Altitude placard used for?

Determining the setting for cabin altitude when operating in manual mode

33
Q

What systems rely on the bleed air system for operation?

34
Q

Where is engine bleed air obtained from?

A

The 5th and 9th stages of the compressor

35
Q

The L and R duct pressure indicates a 30 PSI split, but everything else remains normal. Is this a write up?

A

No. Indications are considered normal as long as there is sufficient air for cabin pressurization.

36
Q

When and why do the deflector doors of the ram air inlet extend?

A

When on the ground to prevent slush ingestion.

37
Q

If a passenger cabin zone trim air, or all trim air is lost, what temperature will be produced by;

  1. The left PACK
  2. The right PACK
A
  1. Whatever is selected by the CONT Cabin temp controller

2. The average of the forward and aft zone temp demands

38
Q

If all zone controls are positioned to OFF, what is this called and what temp will each PACK produce?

A

Fixed Cabin Temperature produces 75° from the left PACK and 65° from the right PACK.

39
Q

Where does the forward cargo compartment receive its warm air supply from when;

  2. Outboard exhaust is closed (normally in flight)
A
  1. The passenger cabin exhaust

2. Electric equipment cooling exhaust

40
Q

At what PSI does the positive pressure relief valves provide safety pressure relief?

A

They open at 8.95 PSI limiting the differential pressure to a max of 9.1 PSI.

41
Q

When would you expect the overboard exhaust valve (located just after of the E&E compartment) to open?

A
  1. On the ground
  2. In flight with low differential pressure
  3. For smoke removal (either PACK switch OFF and right RECIRC OFF)
42
Q

How is the take off airport altitude set on pressurization auto controllers?

A

Automatically using cabin altitude when on the ground.
