Pressurization Flashcards
How does the aircraft meter pressure in the aircraft
Let air out of the outflow valves
How many outflow valves are there
Two
Pneumatic
Electro-pneumatic
What valve is slaved to which one
Pneumatic to electro-pneumatic
Which valve is being used in manual mode
Peumatic
When does the cabin presurize
It pressurizes to 300 ft below field elevation on takeoff roll
What is the max negative pressure differential
-0.03 PSI
When does the cabin altitude light turns ON
10,000 ft cabin altitude
What is the cabin pressure limiter does
Limits cabin altitude to 13,000 +- 1,500 ft
When does the cabin pressure begins to climb on TO
15 seconds after the gear is up
What cabin altitude we set when descending
300 ft below field elevation
What altitude do we set the cabin to prior to the flight
1,000 ft above cruise
How fast does the cabin climb or descend while the rate knob is in detent
650fpm up
45fpm down
What happens when the cabin is dumped
Rapidly decompresses cabin to 13,000 ft
Max differential prssure
7.2 PSI
Normal differential pressure
7.0 PSI
