Ice & Rain Protection Flashcards
Window heat for the Capt & F/O front windows is controlled by
FWD WINDOW HEAT switches thru a Temp Controller
What does an illuminated window OVERHEAT light indicate
The respective window has overheated ; power removed from window
What does the OVHT position of the WINDOW HEAT test switch provide
Simulation of window overheat condition that illuminates all OVERHEAT light if all WINDOW HEAT switches are ON
What does an illuminated amber light on the PITOT STATIC heater panel indicate
Corresponding component not heated
How is an engine anti-ice valve controlled and operated
DC controlled & pneumatically operated
What is the source of bleed air for engine anti-ice
5th or 9th stage bleed air, prior to the engine bleed valve
What does an illuminated amber COWL ANTI-ICE light indicate(500)
Excessive pressure or temperature in duct between cowl anti-ice valve and cowl leading edge lip
Which statements correctly describe an illuminated COWL ANTI-ICE light(500)
The light indicates excessive pressure or temperature in the system, but the cowl valve does not close automatically
Which ENGINE START switch position should be selected for operating in light icing conditions
CONT
What is the source of bleed air for wing anti-ice
Pneumatic manifold air after the engine bleed valve
What occurs when the WING ANTI-ICE switch is placed to ON
AC power operates motors which open each wing anti -ice valve
What is the normal source of power for the wing anti-ice valves
Normal AC
What does a dim WING ANTI-ICE VALVE OPEN light indicate
Respective wing anti-ice control valve is open, with the switch ON
What happens when either thrust lever is moved beyond the takeoff warning threshold with wing anti-ice operating on the ground
Both wing anti-ice valves close, but the switch remains ON
On the ground prior to liftoff, with the wing anti-ice switch ON, and the thrust levers advanced to takeoff power, the WING ANTI ICE VALVE OPEN lights
Illuminate bright blue
