Depressurizes the cabin
Shuts off air conditioning
Closes Outflow valve.
*This sequence is only active in the automatic mode and is inhibited above 15000’
IASC
1 IASC is always primary
Integrated Air System Controllers
Pressurization control
Two IASC controllers, 1 Manual control
Controls primary outflow valve through AUTO drive mechanism
(Secondary independent drive mechanism control valve in manual mode)
Prepressurization Mode
*Automatic pressurization mode
Active when thrust levers advanced to take off position
Achieves cabin pressure of 300’ below field elevation
This reduces noticeable cabin pressure change at takeoff
Takeoff and Return To Base Sequence
*Automatic pressurization mode
Maintains 300’ below field elevation until 6000’ AGL or 10 minutes
*If descent is initiated the cabin descends to take off field elevation and the cabin altitude does not have to be reset.
Manual pressurization knob
12 o’clock position Rate is zero
2/3’s travel is about 1000 fpm
Full deflection is about 2500fpm
CLIMB mode
*Automatic pressurization mode
Automatically controls cabin climb rate according to theoretical schedule of cabin altitude versus aircraft altitude
Also takes into account the rate of climb and landing field elevation.
Typical climb rates are 300-500 fpm with max rate of 635 fpm at lighter weight and best climb
*Above 25000, high rates of climb (>6000 fpm) may cause cabin rate of climb to exceed 635 fpm max and should be avoided for auto overpress protection and cabin comfort
CRUISE MODE
*Automatic pressurization mode
Active when aircraft rate of climb <500 from for >10s
Aircraft is climbing at any rate with aircraft altitude greater than 25000’
Cabin altitude is set according to predetermined schedule.
Depressurization sequence on ground
*Automatic pressurization mode
After landing or aborted takeoff:
Aircraft depressurizes at rate of 500 fpm
Outflow valve drives to fully open
Outflow valve then remains fully open while on the ground.
