ORAL *145 Ice and Rain Protection Flashcards
Which areas are heated by bleed air?
Wing and horizontal stab leading edges
Engine - air inlet lips
Which areas are heated electrically?
Windshields Pilot tubes, and Pitot-static tube AOA sensors, and TAT probes ADC and Pressurization static ports Lavatory water drain, and Water supply service nipples
When are the ice protections systems (with exception of windshield heat) turned on?
Automatically when ice is detected by either by either ice detector
How is ice protection turned on manually?
OVERRIDE knob to ALL
Any restrictions or limitations on using engine inlet anti-icing on the ground?
No, engine inlet has enough airflow surrounding the lip
Which side of pneumatic system supplies horizontal stab anti-icing?
Left side
FADECs ensure minimum available thrust when ice detected, even during low thrust settings. When is this logic inhibited?
When landing gear is extended.
Can APU bleed air be used for anti-icing?
No, it is not hot enough
When do wing and stabilizer anti-icing valves open?
Ice Detection Test Knob is set to 1 or 2,
OR
Inflight or on ground >25 kts, AND
Ice Detection Override knob set to All
OR
Ice Detection Override Knob set to AUTO or ENG and ice is detected
How many seconds should ice detection test be limited to?
15
When do engine anti-ice valves open?
Ice Detection Test Knob is set to 1 or 2
Ice Detection Override knob set to ALL or ENG
Ice Detection Override Knob set to AUTO and ice is detected
When should PPG Windshield heat be turned on?
It may be turned on anytime
When are Pitot, Pitot-Static, AOA, and ADC and Pressurization Static ports heated?
Whenever at least one engine is running (N2 >56.4%)
When are TAT probes heated?
When thrust levers above > 65% TLA, or when airplane is airborne
When are lavatory waste water drain and water service nipples heated?
When DC Bus 1 powered
