Study Notes

Air Conditioning System

  • The mixing manifold receives conditioned air.

Fault Indication

  • The hot air fault light on the air conditioning panel illuminates when there is a hot air fault.

Trim Air

  • Trim air provides cool air to the air conditioning system.

Zone Controller Failure

  • In case of primary and secondary channel failure of the zone controller, Pack One maintains a temperature of 10°C (50°F) and Pack Two maintains a temperature of 18°C (64°F).

Temperature Control Unit Failure

  • When the temperature control unit primary channel fails, the secondary channel takes over.

Avionics Ventilation System

  • The temperature of the cooling air is controlled by the pack controller.

Ram Air Switch

  • The Ram air switch should be used to enable Ram air to the mixture unit when it's necessary to compensate for high bleed air temperatures.

Primary Channel Failure

  • In the avionics ventilation system, a primary channel failure in the pack controller leads to a switchover to the secondary channel.

Secondary Channel Failure

  • In the avionics ventilation system, a secondary channel failure in the pack controller leads to a complete loss of cooling.

Hot Air Pressure Reg. Valve Failed Open

  • In the avionics ventilation system, if the hot air pressure regulator valve fails open, it results in loss of cooling.
