Air conditioning System Parameters
Packs Use with LP Air Conditioning Unit
The flight crew must not use conditioned air from the packs and from the LP air conditioning Unit at the same time, to prevent any adverse effect on the Air Conditioning system.
Air conditioning System Parameters
with HP ground unit
APU Bleed use with HP air start unit
Is prohibited
Note: The external HP air cart cannot be confirmed to be free from oil contamination and are not designed to supply HP air for long durations (I.e. these carts are designed to supply HP air for engine starting purposes only). Do not use air supplied by the HP ground unit when the APU is supplying bleed air is to avoid bleed system damage.
Air conditioning System Parameters
