Q

Engine off Tank-to-tank x-feed rate

A

Transfer rate is dependant on the receiving engines requirements but it is generally 700-900 lbs/hour with
the engines shut down.

Q

When X-feed is selected, what happens ?

A

Boost pump on supplying side activates (Fuel Boost L/R light illuminates)
X-feed valve opens (Fuel X-Feed advisory light illuminates when fully open)
Motive Flow on receiving side is energized closed 3 seconds after X-feed selected.
Motive Flow on “supply” fuel tank, is now providing fuel to opposite engine and tank

Q

What will happen if you select X-feed but have the fuel boost pumps in the OFF position ?

A

x-feed valve will not open BUT the primary motive flow (receiving tank) will close resulting in a
LO FUEL PRESS light. Engine flameout may occur.

Q

What do the scavenger pumps do and how many are there ?

A

3 per wing. They re-distribute fuel from unusable portions of the fuel tank directly to the fuel hopper
(where the primary ejector pump sits) so that the ejector pump can continue to supply fuel to the engine.

Q

Why do you descend to FL 310 and reduce speed to 200 kts if hyd system remains pressurized
during flight ?

A

Air has poor cooling qualities above 310 and the speed restriction reduces the engine rotation/hyd pump
rotation speed to help cool the hyd pump

96
Q

Primary function of the battery ?

2 parts

A

Starting the engines and emergency operations

97
Q

Battery can power the entire electrical system for how long ?

A

10 minutes

98
Q

Battery can power the EMER BUS items for how long ?

A

30 minutes

99
Q

powered up

102
Q

How many different sources of emergency power are there ?

A

-2 battery packs in the nose compartment power the Meggitt and stby HSI
-2 battery packs in the cockpit (1) and cabin (1) area which are used for Emer Exit lighting.

103
Q

What does the BATTERY DISCONNECT switch do ?

A

Disconnects the battery electrically by opening the battery disconnect relay which removes the gnd.

104
Q

What does the Master Interior Switch do ?

cockpit

A

Removes all electrical power in the cabin except emergency lighting

105
Q

What does the elec system look like with BAT off ?

A

Battery and Bat Bus are isolated from the rest of the electrical system. Voltmeter is inop.

106
Q

What does the elec system look like with BAT On ?

A

Bat isolation relay closes connecting the Bat & Bat Bus to the X-feed Bus. Bat Bus is not directly
connected to the Emer Bus. Voltmeter indicates system voltage.

107
Q

What does the elec system look like with BAT Emer ?
