PF BRAKE TEMPERATURE LIMITATION PNF
limitation: 300°C
auto ignition temperature of the hydraulic fluid

Without brake fan: Rely on HOT BRAKE ECAM caution (triggered at 300°C)

With brake fans running:


The fans blow on the temperature sensor, and modifies the indication

Actual Brake temperature : Indication on ECAM : 150° C


300° C

The crew cannot rely on the ECAM caution (linked to indicated value).
Brake temperature must be checked
If indicated value is above 150°C: delay takeoff
