Engine cable colors?
Green - Cockpit indication
Yellow - Power (DECU) and Control (HMU)
Blue - Torque and overspeed sensors
Fuel bypass parameters?
30 micron
18-22 psid sensor closed
8-10 psid button pops
What does the engine fuel boost pump pressurize fuel to?
45 psi
When does the fuel pressure switch open?
Normally closed
Normal ops - opens when pressure increases to 10 - 11 psi
How does the oil press transmitter receive power? Where is it measuring oil from and how?
ELC? 10Vdc?
Differential pressure between B sump scavenge and oil pressure in the accessory section
Oil filter parameters? Bypass?
3 micron Valve 80 psid across the filter Red button pops at 44-60 psid Bypass switch 60-80 psid - SP before bypass Thermal lockout 100-130 F
Scavenge lines per sumps?
A = 2 B = 1 C = 3
Why is there a B sump check valve?
Prevent flooding to B sump during shutdown.
When does the cold oil relief valve open? where does it go?
120 - 180 psi
Returns to AGB?
During emergency operations, what bearings are lubricated by which sumps?
1-4 from A and B
Oil cooler relief valve opens when?
22-28 psi
Why is there no emergency oil for C sump components? or AGB?
AGB and C sump components can operate 6 minutes with residual oil.
How do the engine firewall lovers work?
28 Vdc energized solenoid in directional control value, allows IPAS to closed the lover assembly.
Where is the turbine speed control unit? Wired to?
2 Aft Avionics Bay ?
Hughes valve name?
Inlet Anti-Ice valve
GE valve name?
Anti-ice and Start Bleed valve
When does the start bleed valve open?
During engine starts and low power settings
What does the GE valve provide air to?
5th stage bleed air to swirl vanes, de-swirl vanes, nose splitter, and IGVs
GE high power operations?
(High power) 28vdc energizes solenoid that allows air pressure to move a servo that overcomes spring pressure.
(Anti-ice) SP commands ELC1/2 to de-energize solenoid, spring opens valve.
Where does the ENG CHOP msg come from?
Switch - SP - Relay (Utility Relay Panel) - DECU/TQ speed control - SP - EUFD
(COL) What areas are monitored by the Fire Detection/Extinguishing System?
(Aft area) - Mast base support struts, Heat exchangers
Engines and APU
Describe the overheat detectors
Alarm switch / Monitoring switch
Pressurized tube with helium gas
When does the alarm switch close?
Approx. 350 degrees (Hydrogen expands)
