4
Q

What do the TAT probes use bleed air for on ground?

A

Aspiration - creating an airflow over them for more accurate temperature

A

Isolated left and right sides of bleed air manifold

6
Q

When does the TAT PRV valve energise open?

A

When on ground

7
Q

What does the TAT PRV valve provide air to the TAT and PRV for?

A
  • TAT aspiration

- to keep the PRV open on ground

8
Q

When is the APU approved to supply bleed air to the system?

A

On ground only

9
Q

Where are the bleed air controllers located?

A

Baggage bay forward bulkhead (RH)

10
Q

What controls torque motor valves in the bleed air system?

A

The bleed air controller

11
Q

What does the 8th stage valve ensure?

A

Minimum manifold pressures

12

What does the PRSOV do?

A

Maintains a maximum manifold pressure of 40psi

13
Q

Where are the precooked temp sensors mounted?

A

Handed bleed air ducts (engine side)

14
Q

What does the fan air valve do?

A

Provides cooling air to the precooler

15
Q

What regulates the fan air valve?

A

Precooler inlet and outlet temp sensors speaking to the BAC

16
Q

What type of valve is the fan air valve?

A
  • spring loaded open

- torque motor controlled

17
Q

Which side of the bleed air manifold does external and APU air feed into?

A

Right

18
Q

Where are the manifold pressure transducers and what do they communicate with?

A

Either side of the isolation valve and communicate with the bleed air controllers

19
Q

What tools are needed to perform a flying control backlash test?

A
  • backlash measurement fixture

- force gauge

20
Q

How long until you see blue CAS message at end of stab/any flying control rig?

A

30 seconds

21
Q

What valves prevent fuel going directly into hopper during refuel?

A
  • non return

- defuelling check valves

22
Q

What controls the APU load control valve?

A

The APU ECU

What pressure are the water tanks pressurised to?

A

42-48psi

24
Q

What is a bleed air system fail message indicative of?

A

Failed BAC

25
Q

What do precooler inlet and outlet temps have to be to generate BLEED AIR HOT CAS messages?

A
  • inlet - 765 degrees

- outlet - 550 degrees

26
Q

What do bleed air manifold pressures have to be for trigger bleed air pressure high and low CAS messages?

A
  • > 75psi for high pressure

- <5psi for low pressure

27
Q

During normal operation up to 51000ft, the aircraft only needs _th stage air

  • in flight with throttles at idle - 24psi
  • single pack operation - 35psi
29
Q

What two conditions will create a COOLING TURBINE HOT CAS message?

32
Q

When does the turbine bypass valve open?

A

33
Q

What is the bootstrap principle?

A
