Q

When will Hyd ACMP 1 or 2 activate on ground and in flight?
Ground:

A

Ground:

Q

How is single engine taxi possible if nose wheel steering is
on HYD 2?

A

How is single engine taxi possible if nose wheel steering is
on HYD 2?

Releasing the parking brake commands ACMP 2 to turn on

Q

What is the primary purpose of HYD 3?

A

What is the primary purpose of HYD 3?

To back up the flight controls

17
Q

Why does HYD ACMP 3A pump have an ON switch and HYD
3B have an AUTO position?

A

Why does HYD ACMP 3A pump have an ON switch and HYD
3B have an AUTO position?

  1. HYD 3A is primary and has no automation
  2. 3B is a backup in the event 3A fails
18
Q

Which hydraulic pump will function if the RAT is the only
source of AC power?

A

Which hydraulic pump will function if the RAT is the only
source of AC power?

Only ACMP 3A (AC ESS Bus)

19
Q

In an electrical emergency, what provides hydraulic pressure
to flight controls until the RAT comes online?

A

In an electrical emergency, what provides hydraulic pressure
to flight controls until the RAT comes online?

  1. System 3 Accumulator during the 8 seconds it takes to deploy
    RAT
  2. RAT powers ACMP 3A once RAT is online
20
Q

What is the purpose of the Hydraulic system 3 accumulator?

A

What is the purpose of the Hyd system 3 accumulator?

Temporarily provides hydraulics to the flight controls during an electrical emergency. (from the beginning of RAT deployment until AC ESS Bus powers the AC pump 3A)

21
Q

In an electrical emergency, can HYD 3 system power
requirements overload the RAT?

A

In an electrical emergency, can HYD 3 system power
requirements overload the RAT?

No, there’s a flow limiter valve and pump unloader valve that is used to
reduce the flow and limits pump electrical draw to prevent a RAT
stall

22
Q

What kind of hydraulic fluid does the 175 use?

A

What kind of hydraulic fluid does the 175 use?

Skydrol Hydraulic Fluid

23
Q

What is the nominal hydraulic pressure?

A

What is the nominal hydraulic pressure?

3000 PSIG

24
Q

Hyd ACMP1B and Hyd ACMP2B is located on what bus?

A

Hyd ACMP1B and Hyd ACMP2B is located on what bus?

AC Bus 2 for ACMP1B and AC Bus 1 for ACMP2B
Opposite buses

25
When an engine flameout occurs, what happens to the hydraulic EDP of that respective engine?
When an engine flameout occurs, what happens to the hydraulic EDP of that respective engine? Depressurizes EDP to facilitate WML start
26
Electric Hyd pumps auto turn on when?
Electric Hyd pumps auto turn on when? Ground: 1. Flaps > 0 2. TL set to T/O, or 3. GS > 50 kts Takeoff: in TOGA, activated for 60 seconds to avoid abrupt hydraulic pressure variations in an event of engine failure In-flight: 1. Eng or EDP failure 2. Flaps > 0 Parking Brake: ACMP2 when on ground and Eng 1 is running and PB is released ACMP 2 when on ground during Eng 1 start and PB has been applied in last 6 mins
27
Which bus is hydraulic Pump 3A on?
Which bus is hydraulic Pump 3A on? Its on AC ESS Bus
28
What color is hydraulic fluid?
What color is hydraulic fluid? • Transparent Skydrol, red5606 in struts
29
What’s shutting down the mechanical hyd pump do? How to shut it off?
What’s shutting down the mechanical hyd pump do? How to shut it off? Separates the pump from the hyd system. • Eng. has to be turned off
30
Can you shutoff hydraulics if it’s over heating? Will it keeps the hydraulics from overheating?
Can you shutoff hydraulics if it’s over heating? Will it keeps the hydraulics from overheating? You can shut down Eng .pump following the QRH. Hydraulics fluid should be cooling the system if no pumps is overheating the system.
31
Where is hydraulics 2 located? What’s in that bay?
Where is hydraulics 2 located? What’s in that bay? Behind right wing .FO side Has the PTU
32
Can the backup elec pump for Sys 2 retract the gear? ACMP
Can the backup elec pump for Sys 2 retract the gear? ACMP Yes but very slow
33
The landing gear is? Ailerons? Cargo doors?
The landing gear is? Ailerons? Cargo doors? Landing gear is electrically Controlled and hydraulically operated • Ailerons is mechanically controlled and hydraulically operated Doors are all mechanical controlled and operated
34
When is the Hyd Eicas messages?
When is the Hyd Eicas messages? 100C ̊high temp caution 125 shut off 145C ̊warning
35
What’s bootstrap?
What’s bootstrap? What keeps the reservoir fluid pressured and no air inside To keep pressure in the system. Mostly used for parking break
36
RAT is prevented to stall?
YES A flow limiter valve and pump unloader valve keeps hyd 3 from stalling the Rat (2 gal/min) till it gets fully powered
