Q

What does the de-oiler do in the vent system?

A

Separate the oil from the air before it is vented overboard

17
Q

What type of pumps are oil pumps?

A

Positive displacement pumps

18
Q

What does the reed switch do to give oil level indications?

A

Uses a magnetic float that opens and closes switches as it moves up and down

19
Q

Where does the oil temp thermocouple get its power from?

A

It generates its own power

20
Q

Why do you wait 5 mins after shutting down before opening the oil filled cap?

A

The slow the oil tank to depressurise

21
Q

Why is the engine oil replenishment recorded?

A

To keep track of engine oil consumption

22
Q

How is engine low oil pressure warning shown in cockpit?

A

A warning sign come on and a aural sound as well

23
Q

Where is the oil temp sensor found?

A

In the scavenge system

24
Q

What are the 2 types of oil temp sensors?

A

Thermocouple
Thermistor

25
Q

SOAP?

A

spectrometric Oil Analysis Program

26
Q

What does SOAP do?

A

Scientificly examine oil to see if there are particles in it that may not have been caught by the filter

27
Q

What is the smallest size of particle a scavenge oil filter is able to catch?

A

0.015mm

28
Q

What is the negative with using a scavenge oil filter system?

A

Filter not changed very often
Filter inspection takes time

29
Q

What’s the positives of a magnetic chip detector?

A

Easier
Takes less time
Can be electronically checked

30
Q

How can you tell electronically if there are particles on the magnetic chip detector?

A

Has 2 magnets on the tip the ECU monitors resistance and if there are particles the resistance will decrease

31
Q

How can you check the oil level?

A

On ECAM/EICAS
Or
Sight gauges

32
Q

On engines without anti siphon when must you check the oil leaves?

A

5-20mins after engine shut down

33
Q

Why must you wait 5mins before opening oil cap after shut down?

A

Hot oil could spray out

34
Q

Where can details for the required oil type be found?

A

On a label close to the oil tank filler vap

35
Q

When must the magnetic chip detector be inspected?

A

At fixed intervals

36
Q

What are the rules regarding magnetic chip detectors?

A

Engineer can only check one engine and must get it cross checked

37
Q

What PPE must you wear when inspecting magnetic chip detectors?

A

Gloves as may be hot
