Hydraulic System Flashcards
What capabilities are lost if you lose the Flight Hydraulic System pressure?
Yaw Damper
Right Thrust
Reverser Utility Pump Motor
Auto-pilot due to Yaw Damper
The Utility Pump is driven
by Flight Hydraulic System pressure and uses Combined Hydraulic System fluid. When armed, what will cause it to turn ON automatically?
CAS Message indicating a combined system failure or combined system
pressure falling to less than 800 psi.
When the Utility Pump is armed, what conditions will prevent automatic Utility Pump operation?
CAS Message -
Indicating Flight Hydraulic System fluid
temperature is greater than 220°F
When armed, what conditions will cause the Auxiliary Hydraulic Pump to turn ON automatically?
Either Nutcracker in the Ground Mode and Combined and Utility pressures less than 1500 psi (HMG) and
Toe Brake Pedal depressed greater than 10 degrees (BBW)
The Auxiliary Hydraulic pump is capable of powering which components?
Main Entrance Door Wing Flaps Brakes Main Door Parking/Emergency Brakes Landing Gear/Doors (ground only) Cargo Door (military aircraft only)
Anti-Skid Braking is available from which hydraulic systems?
Combined Hydraulic System
Utility Hydraulic System
Aux Hydraulic System
- Describe operation of the utility hydraulic system.
If the combined system pressure drops below 800 psi, the utility system
acts as a backup, drawing fluid from the combined hydraulic system reservoir,
and pump motor operation from the flight hydraulic system pressure
- From where does the auxiliary hydraulic system pump draw fluid for
operation?
From the auxiliary section of the combined hydraulic system reservoir
- When does the blue “FLT HYD HOT” CAS message illuminate?
When the temperature of the hydraulic fluid in the flight system exceeds 220º F
- If the flight hydraulic fluid is hot, what is the effect on the utility system
operation?
Utility system operation will not be available unless the utility pump is
hard-selected to ON
- What action is required to most accurately determine combined and flight
hydraulic system quantities?
The hydraulic systems must be pressurized
- If an amber “CMB HYD FAIL” CAS message illuminates, what is the affect on
the utility hydraulic pump?
The utility hydraulic pump will automatically turn on, if ARMED
- If a blue “FLT HYD HOT” CAS message illuminates while the utility hydraulic
pump is in use, what is the affect on the utility hydraulic pump?
The utility pump will automatically turn OFF unless it is hard-selected to ON
- If the combined hydraulic system pump fails and hydraulic fluid is still
available, what systems are lost?
Left thrust reverser
Standby electrical power system (HMG)
- With a loss of combined system fluid, what systems are not available?
Left thrust reverser Standby electrical power system (HMG) Stall barrier system Nose wheel steering Normal landing gear operation (Utility Hydraulic System)
