Hydraulics Flashcards
Pressure relief valve
3250-3500
Hydraulic service system bay
A manual pressure release handle to release the pressurized fluid from the emergency accumulator back to the reservoir
A fluid quantity indicator which shows the level of hyd fluid in the power package reservoir
A ground hyd power, sampling, and servicing
Hyd range
3000/120
2880-3120
Hyd pump
Pressurizes the normal system and emergency accumulator
Through hyd fuse
One-way check valve
Useful power
Exceeds 1800 psi
Amber hyd fl lo
Reservoir level has dropped below approximately 1 quart
Full AC
Fluid level is full and accumulator is charged
AD DISCHARGE
The system must be serviced if the accumulator is fully discharged and the fluid level does not indicate FULL AD
Hyd Sys
Cb for hydraulic system on the Bat Bus
If pulled, Hyd Fl LO sensor is not available but ehyd px lo sensor is available
Power pack slide
Isolates the main hyd system from the emergency hyd system
Releases accumulator pressure for gear, flaps, and inboard gear doors
Amber Ehyd Px Lo
Accumulator pressure drops below 2400/150
Check valve
Prevents the emergency system from bleeding back into the main system of the main system fails
Hyd fuse
Used to prevent a leak in the emergency system from depleting the main hyd system
Fluid flow to the emergency accumulator is restricted to a rate below.25 GPM
Ehyd system leak
Leak exceeds .25 GPM
Limited to max of 20-30 cubic inches, 0.5 quart
Less than .25 GPM, depleted until Hyd Fl Lo, still sufficient to lower gear and flaps with main
Landing gear system
Retractable tricycle system
4 actuators, each gear, each door
Outboard doors attached to the wheels
Capacity
5 quarts
Main gear/ doors
Electrical signal to inboard gear solenoid in hyd selector manifold to open both doors with single actuator
When both doors open a mechanical uplock disengages each main LDG gear
An electrical signal commands the landing gear down solenoid in the manifold to lower the main gear and unlock and lower the nose
When gears are down and locked, the electrical signal is removed and the doors close
Nose gear/ doors
Electrical signal commands the nose gear hyd actuator
When the gear extends it allows the spring-loaded nose gear doors to open
A spring-strut braces the nose gear folding strut in the over-center position
Retraction, rollers on each side of the nose gear strut pull the nose gear doors up with gear
Nws radius
160/ 80 either side
Nws actuator
Automatically centers the nose wheel when the AC is in the air and not up
Nws actuator assembly
Forward side of the nose gear strut
Selector valve
Servo valve
Rotary actuator
Also provides nws shimmy damping
Nws selector valve
Solenoid which is electrically controlled by a switch located on each control stick
Nws servo valve
Operated by a push-pull cable connected to the rudder pedals
Nws fail
Failure of the nws system may prevent the pilot from changing nose wheel direction without disengaging the system.
If the nose wheel steering system fails to respond to pilot input, disengage nose wheel steering and use differential braking to maintain directional control while stopping the AC. Do not taxi with a known directional control problem
