Q

What would you expect regarding the AMS if the temperature were above 30c on the ground (WOW)?

A

A white crew awareness CAS message stating that one or both bleed valves has closed. At TO/GA power they will open.
(which can be verified on the ECS schematic page)

Q

How is temperature of the air to the cabin controlled?

A

Temperature Modulating Valves (TMVs) mix cooled air from the heat exchangers with hot bleed air based on temperature selection on the cockpit control panel.

Q

What is the function of the Vapor Cycle System, (VCS)?

A

Provides cooling air for the cabin and cockpit and is operated automatically by the ECS controller. (The VCS uses a refrigerant, evaporators, condenser and a fan to produce the cold air).

Q

For the pressurization system to operate automatically, what input is required by the flight crew prior to departure?

A

LFE must be set.

17
Q

What is the purpose of the Dump Button?

A

Provides cabin depressurization by opening the outflow valve. If pressed a second time, the system returns to normal. It also turns off the recirculation and evaporator fans. In auto mode, the cabin is dumped to 12,000 feet. In Manual, cabin goes to 14,500’.

18
Q

Where is the Outflow Valve located?

A

It is mounted on the aft pressure bulkhead .

19
Q

What is the purpose of the negative and positive relief valves?

A

They are designed to prevent over or under pressurization of the fuselage; they are not actuated during normal operation.

20
Q

When you hit the DUMP button?

A

Opens outlaw valve and turns off recirc fans.

21
Q

The outflow valve is a ____ second valve?

A

6 seconds to fully open or close.

22
Q

Pneumatic panel off and auto switch controls what?

A

PRSOVs at the pylon.

23
Q

The temperature rheostats in the cockpit control what?

A

Temp through the TMVs (temperature modulating valves)

24
Q

If you hit the DUMP button and then reset it does everything reset?

A

Yes

25
Q

Under what condition does the XBLEED valve open with the XBLEED switch in Auto?

A

Loss of bleed air from one engine.

26
Q

Configuration: Engine 2 is started first, SAT>30 C. What is the position of the following valves after engine start?

PRSOV1
PRSOV2
XBLEED
FCSOV (ECS)1
FCSOV (ECS)2
A 
PRSOV1: Closed
PRSOV2 : Closed
XBLEED : Closed
FCSOV (ECS)1 : Closed
FCSOV (ECS)2 : Closed
27
Q

In the previous configuration, when are both PRSOVs and FCSOVs forced open?

A

TOGA power

28
Q

Configuration: Engine 2 is started first, SAT between 11 C and 30C. What is the position of the following valves after both engines are running?

PRSOV1
PRSOV2
XBLEED
FCSOV (ECS)1
FCSOV (ECS)2
A 
PRSOV1: Closed
PRSOV2: Open
XBLEED: Open
FCSOV (ECS)1: Open
FCSOV (ECS)2: Open
29
Q

What is the cockpit indication that one or both PRSOVs are closed?

A
  • CAS (advisory) BLEED 1(2) OFF

- Environmental synoptic page

30
Q

How May the FCSOV (ECS) valves be selected open and closed individually?

A

Moving the ECS switch to the 1 or 2 position.

31
Q

Describe the control, activation and Fail position for the following valves - - PRSOVs (Pressure Regulating Shut-Off valves)

  • XBLEED (Crossbleed)
  • FAVs (Fan Air valve)
  • WHSAIVs (Wing Horiz. Stab Anti-ice valve)
  • EAIVs (Engine Anti-ice valve)
  • FCSOVs (Flow Control Shut-off valves’
  • TMVs (Temp. Modulating valves)
A

Control/activation/fail position

  • PRSOVs Electrical/pneumatic/closed
  • XBLEED Electrical/pneumatic/closed
  • FAVs Electrical/pneumatic/open
  • WHSAIVs Electrical/pneumatic/closed
  • EAIV Electrical/pneumatic/open
  • FCSOVs Electrical/Electrical/Last
  • TMVs Electrical/Electrical/Last
32
Q

What power sources are required for the VCS to operate.

A

GPU or at least one Generator (28 VDC power source).

33
Q

Describe the control, activation, and Fail position of the following valves;

  • Outflow valve
  • Pressure relief valve
  • Negative Pressure relief valve
A
  • Outflow valve - electric control and activation, fails at last position.
  • Pressure relief valve - mechanically controlled and activated (delta P), fails closed.
  • Negative Pressure relief valve - mechanically controlled and activated (delta P), fails closed.
34
Q

What is cockpit indication of outflow valve?

A

Environmental synoptic page

35
Q

In the event of smoke in cockpit or cabin, why should the Presn mode be in MAN before the PRESN DUMP button is pushed in?

A
  • If the cabin is above 12,000 (High Altitude Operations) and Presn is in Auto, the outflow valve will not open.
  • The rate of Outflow Valve movement is greater in MAN mode than AUTO
