ECS/PNEUMATICS/ICE AND RAIN Flashcards
What is HP?
High Pressure Bleed air.
What is IP bleed air used for?
Air conditioning, pressurization, and engine start.
What pressure is IP regulated to?
50 psi
What is HP bleed air used for?
Wing and engine anti-ice.
What pressure is HP bleed air regulated to?
36 psi.
What are IASC’s?
Integrated Air System Controllers (2 installed IASC 1 and IASC 2)
Brains of the pneumatic system.
Each IASC has 2 Channels (A + B)
What is IP?
Intermediate Pressure Bleed air
What do the IASC’s monitor?
IASC 1 monitors the Left IP and HP bleed valves
Channel A monitors ECS and Pressurization Channel B Monitors Wing Anti Ice and Leak Protection
IASC 2 monitors the Right IP and HP bleed valves
Channel A monitors ECS and Pressurization Channel B Monitors Wing Anti Ice and Leak Protection
Why would you select manual temperature?
It gives you a wider temperature selection range.
AUTO: 15-35 degree temp. range
MANUAL: 3-70 degree temp. range
Wing temperature sensors closer to the wingtips measure what?
Underheat.
Wing temperature sensors closer to the fuselage measure what?
overheat.
In what position do wing anti ice valves fail?
They fail closed.
When is T2 heated?
T2 is heated electrically when the engine anti ice is selected to ON.
Max Runway contamination depth?
.5”
What kind of air comes out of the gaspers?
ALL COLD AIR.
