TO BE USED FOR MAINTENANCE TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY ATA 34 - NAVIGATION Issue 6 - January 2023 Page 8 of 500 BOMBARDIER DHC 8-400 (PWC PW150) • • • • NAVIGATION SYSTEMS AIR DATA SYSTEM Calibrated airspeed (CAS) True airspeed (TAS) Maximum velocity in operation (VMO) Static Air Temperature (SAT) GENERAL DESCRIPTION The primary Air Data Systems (ADS1, ADS2) has the units that follow: • • • • • Air data computer Pitot-static probes Static temperature probe Pitot-static isolation valve Pitot-static isolation valve panel Each Air Data System (ADS1, ADS2) senses the data that follow: • • • • Static and pitot pressures Outside air temperature Barometric correction Probe heater failure The primary ADS has two sub-systems that operate independently to calculate the data that follows: • • • • • • • Static and pitot pressures Temperature Barometric correction Altitude Altitude rate Airspeed Maximum velocity in operation The Electronic Instrument System (EIS) shows the Air Data System (ADS 1, ADS 2) data that follow: • • Barometric correction in Millibars and in In Hg (Bcor) Barometric altitude corrected by barometric correction (Hc) TO BE USED FOR MAINTENANCE TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY ATA 34 - NAVIGATION Issue 6 - January 2023 Page 9 of 500 BOMBARDIER DHC 8-400 (PWC PW150) NAVIGATION SYSTEMS A standard atmosphere, where the barometric pressure, density, and temperature is known, is used to calculate an altitude that is relative to sea level. During standard atmospheric conditions, the altitude calculation is accurate. But, during non-standard atmospheric conditions, an altitude with a noticeably large error is calculated. The amount of error depends on the difference between standard and actual atmosphere conditions. AIR DATA SYSTEM GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONTINUED The ADS senses static and pitot air pressure and temperature. All other data is calculated. Each Air Data Computer (ADC1, ADC2) senses the static and pitot pressures through holes in the related pitot-static probe. The static pressure from the other pitot-static probe is averaged to give a more accurate static pressure sensing. A bird strike at the right side of the forward fuselage section can cause damage to the No. 2 primary pitot-static probe and to the secondary pitot-static probe. All air data indications can possibly malfunction because the ADC1 static pressure sensing is connected to the No. 2 pitot-static probe. An electrically controlled shutoff valve is a used to isolate ADC1 and pitot-static probe No. 2 static pressure. The NORM/ISOL push-button switch on the pitot-static isolation control panel is pushed to close the usually open shutoff valve. The pitot-static probes have an encased heating element with a self regulating power consumption feature to prevent ice accumulation on the pressure probes and help eliminate erroneous pitot and static measurements. Each pitot-static probe heater is controlled by a PITOT STATIC toggle switch on the ice protection panel. Air temperature data is supplied by an air temperature probe that changes its electrical resistance as the temperature of the air changes. The resistance value is supplied to the two ADCs. The static temperature probe has two resistor sensors. Each sensor is connected to one ADC in order to supply the aircraft system with two independent temperature values. The Indicated Outside Air Temperature (IOAT) measured by the two sensors is affected by airspeed. A recovery factor is set in each ADC and is used to calculate and compare, using the IAOT, the Static Air Temperature (SAT) and Total Air Temperature (TAT). TO BE USED FOR MAINTENANCE TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY Each Index Control Panel - ICP1, ICP2 - has a BARO SET knob to change the barometric correction data that is supplied to its related ADC to calculate the barometric altitude and barometric setting indication. The barometric correction value is shown as millibars (MIL) or Inches of Mercury (IN). On aircraft with the millibars (MB) barometric correction value 823SO00017: The millibar barometric correction indication is set by ADC pin programming logic. When the ADC is not energized, the barometric correction value is saved in ADC Non Volatile Memory (NVM). The Proximity Sensor Electronic Unit (PSEU) supplies on ground or airborne data to each ADC to make sure that the ADC operational test and the Power On Self Test (POST) is done only while the aircraft is on the ground. The Air Data Computers (ADC) calculate Non Computed Data (NCD) if a primary data, such as static pressure (ps), pitot pressure (dp), or Outside Air Temperature (OAT), is sensed out of range. NOTE: The Indicated Airspeed (IAS) and True Airspeed (TAS) indications are calculated as NCD when the airspeed is less than 30 kts and the aircraft is stationary and on the ground. A Weight-On-Wheels (WOW) signal from the PSEU will cause the Electronic Instruments System (EIS) to show 30 KIAS and 0 KTAS with these conditions.

For indication, the barometric corrected altitude data from the ADCs are dampened by the Attitude and Heading Reference Units (AHRS) to show barometric inertial altitude. If the AHRU malfunctions or an opposite EFIS ATT/HDG SOURCE reversion is set, barometric corrected altitude is shown on the related PFD. NOTE: The EIS has no indications to tell the pilots that barometric corrected altitude is shown.

The pneumatic connectors oriented downwards to prevent entry of moisture into the units. The Air Data Computer (ADC) weighs 6.12 lbs/2.78 kgs. It has subassemblies mechanically packaged into a 2 in/51 mm high, 6 in/152 mm wide by 7.9 in/201 mm long case. The ADC measures static pressure (ps) and pitot pressure (pt) supplied from the primary pressure probes and compensates these pressures for probe position errors. The ADC also measures the temperature probe resistance to calculate Outside Air Temperature (OAT).With this data and and the barometric setting data supplied by the Index Control Panel (ICP), the ADC does the air data calculations. The ADC is a Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) that has the components that follow: • • Electrical board with two silicon pressure sensors P90, a CPU, analogue and discrete inputs/outputs, ARINC 429 interface, power supply and electrical interface with a connector and EMC protection Mechanical case that secures the pressure ports A test mode gives confirmation of correct interface of ADC with the flight compartment displays.

AIR DATA SYSTEM There are four drains are installed, two for each system. They are located under the flight compartment floor, under the left and right circuit breaker panels. PITOT-STATIC PROBES The two primary pitot-static probes are installed symmetrically to the left and right sides of the forward fuselage. The primary pitot-static probes are oriented 9° downward relative to the horizontal reference axis of the aircraft. The angle of the probe tube relative to the mast gives a 5° angle in or out between the tube line and the tangential plane of the fuselage skin. Locating pins on the base plate give an accurate angular orientation of the probe with the aircraft axis. An opening located at the nose of the pitot-static probe senses pitot pressure. The shape of the opening reduces the sensitivity because of the inclination of the tube axis to the different airflow angles. This results in a pitot pressure measurement that is the same through the entire AOA and sideslip area. The static pressure ports are located on the side of each probe tube and sense static pressure. The primary pitot-static probes have one pitot pressure connector and two static pressure connectors (for pneumatic connection with each ADC). To prevent ice accumulation, the primary pitot-static probes have a single coaxial-type electrical heating element that is self-regulating. The primary pitot-static probe has drain holes prevent to moisture accumulation in the pitot tube. The static pressure ports self-drain because of their location pitot-static probes. The primary pitot-static probes are connected to aluminium tubing with flexible hoses. Two T-pipes, located approximately the same distance from the two primary pitotstatic probes, gives the pneumatic averaging of left and right static pressures supplied to each ADC. The slope of the tubing is always more than 3.5° to the drains holes at the lowest point TO BE USED FOR MAINTENANCE TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY ATA 34 - NAVIGATION Issue 6 - January 2023 Page 24 of 500 BOMBARDIER DHC 8-400 (PWC PW150) NAVIGATION SYSTEMS - PITOT-STATIC PROBE LOCATOR TO BE USED FOR MAINTENANCE TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY ATA 34 - NAVIGATION Issue 6 - January 2023 Page 25 of 500 BOMBARDIER DHC 8-400 (PWC PW150) NAVIGATION SYSTEMS AIR DATA SYSTEM STATIC TEMPERATURE PROBE The static temperature probe is attached flush to an access panel in the wing to fuselage fairing below the left wing root with four mounting screws. It weighs 0.25 pounds. The probe has two isolated platinum temperature sensing elements that have a 0°C base resistance of 500 ohms, and a thermal coefficient of resistance of 0.00385 ohms/degree C. The accuracy of the resistance over the -50°C to +50°C range is ± 1 ohm. This resistance error is equivalent to a temperature accuracy of 0.52°C within this range. The static temperature probe measures the surrounding aircraft Indicated Outside Air Temperature (IOAT). It is a flush-attached electrical resistance transmitter with temperature resistance properties. The IOAT measured by the sensors are affected by airspeed. A recovery factor, a value programmed in the ADC to change IOAT data to SAT is stored in each ADC and is used to calculate from IOAT the Static Air Temperature (SAT) and the True Air Temperature (TAT).

An annunciator switch located near the pilot in the flight compartment gives manual control of the shutoff valve. Electrical power is supplied from the 28V DC left essential bus through a flight compartment annunciator switch and relay to let the same electrical power source energize the shutoff valve. When the NORM/ISOL annunciator switch is pushed, the 28V DC left essential bus energizes a relay to let the 28V DC left essential bus supply electrical power through relay contacts to the shutoff valve. The shutoff valve is stays closed while it is energized. When the solenoid valve is in the open position, it supplies different signals through the Advisory Control Unit (ACU) to make the NORM lights in the annunciator switch come on and the ISOL lights go out. If the solenoid valve is in the closed position, it supplies different signals through the ACU to make the ISOL lights in the annunciator switch come on and the NORM lights go out.

The standby pitot-static probe has a location with minimal distorted airflow and is pointed directly into the air-stream. STANDBY AIR DATA INSTRUMENTS INTRODUCTION The standby air data system senses and changes static pressure and pitot pressure to give altitude and airspeed indication independently of the primary air data system. The standby altitude and airspeed indicators are connected to the standby pitot-static probe. It has an integral electrical heating element to prevent ice accumulation that causes irregular measurements. The electrical power to the heater is controlled by the Timer Monitor Unit (TMU) of ice and rain protection system. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The standby air data instruments function independently of the primary channel Air Data Computers (ADC1, ADC2) to show the data that follows: • • • Altitude Airspeed Barometric correction settings The standby air data system has the units that follow: • • • Standby altitude indicator Standby airspeed Indicator Standby pitot-static probe The standby pitot-static probe has one pitot pressure port and two static pressure port to supply air data to the standby air data instruments. The standby altitude indicator receives air data from one static port and the standby airspeed indicator receives air data from the pitot and static ports. The standby altitude indicator and the standby airspeed indicator are mechanical devices. The standby altitude indicator uses static air pressure to calculate altitude and the standby airspeed indicator uses the difference between pitot and static pressures to calculate airspeed.
