16
Q

what does ice need to accumulate to in order to be broken by the change in contour when the boots are inflated?

A

1.5cm

ice formation aft of this area will be removed by dynamic air pressure

17
Q

what is each propellor blade provided with for de-icing?

A

de-icing mat with an outboard and inboard heating element

18
Q

how is power for the propellor de-ice controlled?

A

a timer, through brushes and a slipring

19
Q

when does the timer control prop de-icing?

A

when the PROP switch is ON

20
Q

what does the prop de-ice timer provide?

A

2 heating cycles (inboard/outboard element), which will start where the previous cycle left off

21
Q

when must the prop de-icing be switched on?

A

before entering icing conditions

22
Q

what is the purpose of the ice protection plates?

A

to protect the fuselage from ice debris from the prop

23
Q

what protects the prop DE-ICE system?

A

DE-ICE PROP LH/BUS 1 on the overhead breaker panel

DE-ICE PROP RH/BUS 2 on the AC/DC breaker panel

24
Q

how is correct operation of the prop de-ice indicated?

A

a respective reading on the 2 ammeters located on the pedestal panel

25
Q

what can too much operation of the windshield anti-ice on the ground cause?

A

distortion and bubbling in the windshield

26
Q

what is the normal operating temperature of the windshields?

A

45C- generated by 1 or 2 static inverters

27
Q

what powers the windshield anti-icing?

A

28v DC

28
Q

what protects the windshield anti ice?

A
  • W-SHIELD/HEAT BUS 2 on the AC/DC breaker panel
29
Q

what protects the windshield anti-ice with2 static inverters?

A
  • W-SHIELD HEAT-LH/BUS2 on the AC/DC breaker panel

- W-SHIELD HEAT-RH/NON-ESS-BUS on the AC/DC breaker panel

30
Q

how is the windshield anti-icing system with 1 static inverter controlled?

A

W-SHIELD 3position toggle switch on LH overhead panel

31
Q

how is an overheat in the windshield anti-ice signalled?

A

WINDSH OVERH caution light
