Q

If you press the DUMP switch:

A
  • Packs and recirculation fans are turned off.- Outflow valve is opened to maintain a cabin ROC of 2,000 fpm until a cabin altitude of 12,400 ft. Then the outflow valve is fully closed (cabin altitude still increases due to natural leak).

Q

What is the meaning of the HI FIELD indication ?

A

Airports > 8,000 ft. The cabin altitude warning point is shifted above it’s original value of 9,700 ft, by +500 ft added to the elevation.

20
Q

A

The mixer, or the R recirculation fan when the gasper shutoff valve opens (if gasper air > 35° C).

21
Q

The recirculation fans are turned off when:

A
  • Both packs are OFF (or DUMP button)- Cabin warm-up with APU as bleed- Cargo fire- Smoke in recirculation bay
22
Q

The fans draw air from the … (fwd e-bay) or the … (center e-bay) and expel this air to the ….

A

ThreeCockpitRear cabinRecirculation bay.

23
Q

Are cooling fans installed in the aft e-bay ?

A

No

24
Q

Emergency ram air ventilation (valve) is open if:

A
  • Both ECS packs are off, and- < 25,000 ft
25
Q

What is the relation between the PACK and it’s flow control valve ?

A

If the FCV is closed, the PACK is OFF.

26
Q

An ECS pack is commanded OFF when:

A
  • Bleed air is not available, or- PACK is switched off, or- In-flight engine start using cross-bleed, or- Duct leak or failures
27
Q

Both ECS packs are commanded OFF for engine start when:

A

Engine start on the ground, orEngine start using the APU.

28
Q

The RAM air valve BIT occurs during:

A

First engine start. It commands PACK 1 off.

29
Q

The FADEC sends an ECS OFF (both packs off) signal during T/O when:Unless:

A
  • 1# failure, or- T/L are set to MAX, or- ECS OFF T/OUnless APU bleed is available !
30
Q

The FADEC sends an ECS OFF (both packs off) signal during GA when:

A
  • 1# failure, or- T/L are set to MAXUnless APU bleed is available !
31
Q

After a FADEC ECS OFF signal, the packs are recovered when :

A
  • At 500 ft (ECS OFF T/O, 2 engines), or- T/L reduction below TO/GA, or- Above 9,700 ft (1#), or- Above 15,000 ft (1#, HI FIELD, T/O)
