flange).
- The Propeller Interface Unit (one PIU per PEC) is an electronic box located in the electronic bay that realizes the interface between the PEC
and the flight compartment with propeller speed selection and PEC fault indicating logics.
Propeller protections:
- A mechanical backup system provides several protections to the propeller system:
- a low pitch protection: When the oil transfer tube moves to the decrease pitch direction (minimum flight blade angle), a metering window
drains some overspeed governor pressure (Secondary Low Pitch Stop protection). fine pitch pressure is metered to maintain propeller blade pitch
at the low pitch stop setting.
- Propeller overspeed protection: the propeller overspeed governor avoids propeller Np overspeed
- In case of loss of hydraulic supply pressure at a positive blade angle. Blade counterweights give protection from overspeed or excessive drag
(blades will turn forward coarse-pitch with centrifugal force).
The Propeller Indicator System:
A propeller speed sensor is fitted on the Reduction Gear Box (Np indicator).
It allows propeller speed indicating in the flight compartment
The Propeller Brake System:
A propeller brake is fitted on the reduction gear box of the right engine.
It enables to stop propeller rotation when engine is running and to use Right engine gas as a pneumatic and electrical (DC) generation source
(Hotel Mode operation)

61.10 HYDRAULIC CONTROL AND ASSEMBLY Assembly Operation
An increase pitch signal will cause the slide valve to route the metered pressure to the increase pitch chamber of the pitch change actuator and to
connect the decrease pitch chamber to the return.
As a result the actuator moves rearward driving the blades to increase pitch and, as the oil transfer tube is attached to and moves axially with the
pitch change actuator yoke, oil transfer tube axial position is a direct indication of the propeller blade pitch.
Motion of the oil transfer tube contacts the RVDTs (Rotary Variable Differential Transformers) which transmits to the PEC the position of the
propeller blade angle (blade angle position feed back).
When the blade angle position feedback to the PEC is in accordance with the command, operation ceases.

61.11 HUB BLADES ASSEMBLY Pitch Change Mechanism
Each blade is turned by means of a torque pin in the blade butt, off-centered in such a manner as to provide a crank arm.
The torque pin rides in a yoke which is moved axially by hydraulic pressure and, in turn, translates pitch change forces into blade rotation.
The double acting pitch change actuator receives hydraulic oil flow for the increase and decrease pitch chambers via dual concentric oil transfer
tubes. The dual, concentric propeller oil transfer tube is located in the propeller drive shaft in the reduction gearbox.
It provides the interface between the stationary control system and the rotating pitch change actuator. It provides the hydraulic supply pressure to
the actuator and the blade angle feedback signal to the propeller valve module.
The loss of hydraulic pressure will result in increasing blade pitch due to the blade counterweights centrifugal twisting moments.

61.20 CONTROLLING System Description
In flight, only the Power Levers (PL) have to be moved. The Condition Levers (CL) remain in AUTO selected position.
Propeller has a constant speed and variable blade angle.
The Propeller Valve Module receives inputs (electrical, mechanical and hydraulic) from the propeller, aircraft and a Propeller Electronic Control
(PEC). It supplies information to the PEC, and provides pitch change oil to the propeller pitch change actuator.
The PEC is a dual channel electronic box which provides closed loop control of the propeller pitch change system. It controls speed governing,
synchrophasing, provides beta scheduling, feathering and unfeathering. In addition to its control functions, the PEC will detect, isolate, and
accommodate systems faults.
The PIU (Propeller Interface Unit ), one per PEC, is an electronic box located in the electronic bay that realizes the interface between the PEC and
the flight compartment with propeller speed selection and PEC fault indicating logics.

61.20 CONTROLLING System Description
The propulsion unit includes an automatic Take-off power control system (ATPCS) which, in case of an engine failure during take-off, provides the
up trimmed take-off power on the remaining engine, combined with automatic feathering of the failed engine propeller.
This system enables take-off power to be reduced by an amount approximately 10% below that certified by the engine manufacturer.
This prolongs engine/propeller life without affecting take-off performance. In case of an engine failure, the remaining engine is automatically
increased from take-off power to max rated take-off power. Full ATPCS (i.e. uptrim and auto-feather) is only available for take-off.
ATPCS controls are located on the center instrument panel.
When ARM green light illuminates, ATPCS is available.

- TRANSITION MODE:
- This is the mode between the fuel governing mode and the blade angle governing mode.
- It only applies on ground, or in flight at low power and low speed. The Np speed is comprised between 70.8% and PWR MGT selection (82%
or 100%).

61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
Assuming engine is running with Power Lever at GI (Ground Idle position) and Condition Lever at FTR (Feather position).
When the Condition Lever is moved from "FTR" to "AUTO" :
- propeller unfeathers and speed increases,
- the fuel governing mode is activated (one third below "AUTO").
During unfeathering operation, "SGL CH" illuminates then extinguishes.
Note: On ground, at each propeller unfeathering, the low pitch protection is tested by the PEC and the back-up channel is used during 2s indicating
the correct operation of this channel.
Following unfeathering operation propeller blade angle reaches the low pitch blade angle which is set by the Power Lever, read on the PVM, then
sent to the PEC.
MW61.20_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 66
61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
The PEC computes a pitch angle in accordance with the "GI" position. This is indicated by the LO PITCH light. Propeller speed is 70.8%, this
speed is controlled by the EEC which trims the fuel to maintain this speed.
This is call the fuel governing mode. As a result ACW is available.
Note: Fuel governing mode is invalid with EEC "OFF" or faulty, or PEC "OFF".
MW61.20_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 67
61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
Moving the Power Lever from "GI" to "FI" causes torque to increase because blade angle increases. This is due to the new setting of the Power
Lever. As a result, beta angle increases.
Meanwhile the EEC maintains the propeller speed at 70.8.
Moving the Power Lever above "FI", blade angle continues to increase and torque as well. the LO PITCH light extinguishes.
Propeller speed is maintained at 70.8 (fuel governing is still operated).
As Power Lever is continuously pushed forward, blade angle and torque increase.
Propeller speed leaves 70.8 to increase : this is called the transition mode.
MW61.20_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 68
61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
At 62° PLA position, 100% Np is selected by the PIU provided that "TO" is selected on the PWR MGT panel.
Note: At that time, it is still a speed selection as long as take-off power is not available so, the propeller is still operating in transition mode.
When the Power Lever is positionned in the take-off notch identified by the white mark, the propeller leaves the transition mode for the propeller
speed governing mode. Now the propeller speed is governed by the PEC, comparing the speed selected to the actual propeller speed detected by
the speed sensors, if an error between both signals is detected the PEC provides a signal to the PVM to maintain the selected speed.

61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
Feathering, autofeathering, ATPCS test and LO PITCH test cause the propeller speed to drop normally by increasing the blade angle. In these
cases, the fuel governing mode is cancelled and the EEC does not add fuel anymore. Should the cancel function fails, this would lead to
overtorque, increase of fuel flow and ITT increase.
Note: The fuel governing mode is confirmed cancelled in Hotel Mode.

61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
Synchrophaser:
- Selection of synchrophasing is fully automatic in the PEC. When both propellers have stabilized at the selected propeller governing RPM,
synchrophaser control is initiated. Speed control and synchrophasing accuracy supplied by the PEC limits the amount of bias the synchrophaser
can give to the slave propeller speed to ± 6 RPM. If the RPM of either propeller differs from the selected governing RPM of the slave propeller by
more than 6 RPM, synchrophaser control is de-activated.
- The master propeller incorporates an additional, single coil pulse generator to supply a signal to the slave propeller PEC (ENG 2). This
redundant, separate pulse generator, is used to assure that a coil failure on one propeller will not affect the operation of the other. These features
make it possible to use synchrophasing during take-off since the slave propeller RPM will not be affected in the event of failure of the master
engine (ENG 1).

61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
At take-off with the power management selected at "TO" and the Power Lever above 62°, the internal logic within the PIU selects the requested
propeller speed i.e. 100%.
The selected speed is routed to the PEC through the normally closed relay controlled by the Condition Lever in "AUTO" position.
The PEC compares the sensed propeller RPM to the selected governing RPM. The PEC calculates a pitch change direction and rate to correct the
RPM error. The corrected pitch change rate is computed based on:
- magnitude of RPM error,
- rate of change of RPM error,
- aircraft operating condition (airspeed and altitude).
The computed blade angle is sent to the torque motor driver which controls the EHV which meters the oil pressure to the propeller pitch change

Note: The primary channel is normally on control in a healthy system.
Changes in blade angle are fed back to the PEC through the blade angle RVDT to close control loop.

61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
Selecting "CLB" (climb) provides a new speed setting to the PIU which selects 82%.
Note: Operation is the same as previously. This is also true for "MCT" (maximum continuous) and "CRZ" (cruise).
MW61.20_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 75
61.20 CONTROLLING System Operation
During approach, "TO" is selected but the selection is not 100% : it is 82% (memorized by the PIU). This speed is used to minimize the noise
during approach.
Note: the power lever is below 62° (for instance "FI").
In case of GO AROUND the Power Lever is selected above 62° arming the propeller speed selection at 100%.
If the system fails, selecting the Condition Lever to "OVERRIDE" de-energize the relay which routes the information between the PIU and the PEC.
In case of loss of information, the PEC schedules a propeller speed at the default speed: the default speed is set at 100% Np.

Lost of propeller control by one PEC channel is indicated to the crew by illumination of the SGL CH flag on EWD, with ENG PEC SGL CH on FWS
window, associated to MASTER CAUTION + SC.
The FAULT light on panel 401VM is switched on when the PEC has lost both channels and works in accommodation mode.
Note: In case of blade angle feedback position loss, the PEC controls speed governing if the PLA is above FI and fix pitch or full reverse below FI.
MW61.21_.05.C1L3 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 99
61.20 CONTROLLING PEC Operation
The rotary variable differential transducers (RVDTs) within the PVM indicate the Power Lever position to the PEC.
The beta angle for a specific operating condition is determined by the PEC from a map (or beta schedule), beta angle from Power Lever through
the PVM and airspeed.
The computed blade angle is sent to the torque motor driver which controls the EHV which meters the oil pressure to the propeller pitch change
actuator.
Note: The primary channel is normally on control in a healthy system.
Changes in blade angle are fedback to the PEC through the blade angle RVDT to close the control loop.
Should the primary channel fails to operate, the back-up channel takes control automatically and the propeller operation will not be affected.
Note: Except when the PEC2 primary channel fails, synchrophasing function is lost.

61.20 CONTROLLING PIU
During approach, last cruise speed is maintained until aircraft is on ground. After landing, a Weight On Wheel (WOW) signal is sent to the PIU to
reset the propeller speed from 82% to 100% to allow reverse operation.
Note: The PIU checks that its output are in accordance with its inputs. Propeller speed is forced to 100% Np in case of default.
PEC primary and back-up channel fault discretes are sent to the PIU that sends:
- a "SGL CH" (single channel) flag on EWD,
- or PEC 1(2) "FAULT" on 401VM when both channels are failed.
In addition, some failures cause the "BITE LOADED" located on the maintenance panel (MFC) to turn on.

61.20 CONTROLLING Feather Solenoid
Normal Feathering:
- The power supply to the feather solenoid and to the feathering pump controlled through the MFC.
- A feather control signal to the Electronic Hydraulic Valve (EHV) through the PEC.
Note: The feathering pump will be supplied on ground without waiting at FTR for minimum 30 sec.
When the propeller is controlled to feather:
- the feather solenoid is energized,
- the feathering pump runs,
- and the PEC (not shown) provides a feathering signal to the Electro Hydraulic Valve (EHV).
As the solenoid is energized, high pressure from the pump is drained. As a result, the protection valve shift routing the high pressure to the

increase pitch chamber of the pitch change actuator.
Once in feather position, the propeller is set and locked at 78.5°.
MW61.21_.10.C1L3 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 114
61.20 CONTROLLING Feather Solenoid
If the feather solenoid or its electrical circuit fails, feathering operation will be accomplished by the Electro Hydraulic Valve (EHV).
When the Condition Lever is moved out of "FTR", the feather solenoid is de-energized, blanking off the drain and PEC begins the unfeathering
sequence routing the hydraulic pressure from the HP pump to the decrease side of the pitch change actuator.
During unfeathering, the PEC will limit the decrease pitch rate until propeller RPM is near the selected governing RPM. This is done to prevent
large propeller RPM overshoots which would occur if the RPM governor were allowed to command a high decrease pitch rate in response to the
large RPM error that exists when unfeathering is initiated.
Note: During unfeathering, LO PITCH protection is tested by the PEC and the back-up channel is used during 2s. "SGL CH" illuminates, indicating
the proper operation of the back-up chanel.

Auto-feathering operation:
- Auto-feathering operation is part of the Automatic Take-off Power Control System (ATPCS). In case of failure of one engine, the remaining
engine is up-trimmed (gain of power) and the propeller of the faulty engine feathered.
The Automatic Feathered Unit (AFU) provides through the MFC:
- the power supply to the feather solenoid,
- a control signal to the feathering pump,
- a feather control signal to the Electro Hydraulic Valve (EHV) through the PEC.

61.20 CONTROLLING Protection Valve
The protection valve is a hydraulically operated valve which controls the fluid flow to the propeller actuator.
It is operated by hydraulic pressures supplied to the ends of the valve.
One end of the valve has an area which is half that of the other end.
The protection valve can shift to port decrease pitch pressure to drain, resulting in pitch increase. This shift is the result of a reduction of the
pressure on the large area of the valve.
It is produced by:
- the overspeed governor,
- the feather solenoid,
- the low pitch stop protection.

61.45 LOW PITCH PROTECTION AND INDICATING System Description
A Secondary Low Pitch Stop retract solenoid controlled by a microswitch actuated by the Power Lever will allow at landing the propeller to go to
reverse by removing the secondary low pitch stop protection.
Mechanical backup : This is the propeller mode when both PEC channels have been lost leading to a PEC FAULT. This mechanical backup is
achieved through the overspeed governor and the Secondary Low Pitch Stop Valve which protects the propeller in speed and blade angle.
Loss of HP supply: The loss of hydraulic pressure will result in increasing blade pitch due to the blade counterweight centrifugal twisting moments.
MW61.45_.01.S1L1 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 144
61.45 LOW PITCH PROTECTION AND INDICATING System Operation
Overspeed protection:
In normal operation, HP oil pressure from the pump is routed, through the Overspeed governor to the HP side of the protection valve and applied
to the EHV (system is shown propeller on speed).
In this position, the protection valve is ready to route the metered pressure (increase or decrease) from the EHV to the pitch change actuator.
Should an overspeed occurs approx 103 % Np (as an example EHV failure driving the propeller to decrease pitch). As propeller speed increases
the Overspeed governor flyweights open.
As the flyweights open the slide valve of the Overspeed governor moves and drains the pressure applied to the HP side of the protection valve. As
a result, the protection valve shifts. This causes the protection valve to route a high pressure to the increase pitch chamber of the pitch change
actuator. As a result, blade pitch increases and propeller speed decreases and is maintained at 103 % (exception if system goes back to normal).
MW61.45_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 145
61.45 LOW PITCH PROTECTION AND INDICATING System Operation
Now, the Overspeed governor controls the pressure provided to the protection valve, there by controlling the metered pressure.
Note:
- if the Overspeed is bigger, the pneumatic part of the governor will decrease PY causing the fuel flow to be decreased,
- A PY leak would have the same effect.
MW61.45_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 146
61.45 LOW PITCH PROTECTION AND INDICATING System Operation
At landing when the power is selected below "FI", the speed reset solenoid energizes. This pressurizes the reset piston. When the reset piston is
pressurized, it puts more force on the speeder spring which increases the speed setting of the governor (118 % instead of 102.5%). This causes
the governor to keep the high pressure signal to the protection valve on a higher speed range. This prevents momentary propeller overspeed to
allow full reverse operation.

Note: The low pitch stop is totally independant of the PEC.
If blade angle continues to decrease down to 8° single chime sounds, "CAUTION" flashes, "ENG LO PITCH" flashes on EWD (Alert Window), "LO
PITCH" illuminates on EWD. The engine has to be shut down.
Note: The FDAU records the failure.

61.45 LOW PITCH PROTECTION AND INDICATING System Operation
In no fault condition, at landing, the power lever is retarded below "FI" energizing the secondary LO pitch stop retract solenoid. Simultaneously, as
pitch decreases the transfer tube moves forward opening the metering window which is closed by the solenoid allowing the reverse operation.
Propeller pitch is controlled by the EHV through the protection valve.
As propeller pitch goes below "FI", the LO PITCH light illuminates.
Note:
- on ground, below "FI" the LO PITCH light is normally illuminated so, it is not associated with warnings,
- when the PEC is OFF, reverse is inoperative (inability to go below "FI" with secondary low pitch stop retract solenoid not supplied).

The governor is equipped with a solenoid actuated reset piston which, on command, moves the governor set point to 118%:
- Solenoid energized activates the higher set point (118%),
- Solenoid de-energized for normal operation (102.5% ±1% Np).
In case of overspeed, the flyweights drive the slide valve which decrease the hydraulic supply pressure to the PVM.
Note: As this occurs, the protection valve in the PVM moves to increase the blade angle.

61.42 NP PROPELLER SPEED INDICATING System Operation
The propeller NP RPM is measured by the pulse generator transmitting signal information to the indicator.
The pulse generator, which is a dual sensor, transmits a signal to CAC acquisition boards (IOM-DC type).
The indicator is located on EWD and receives numeric signal from both NAS AFDX and A429 network, processed and broadcasted by IOM-DC
boards from NP sensor output.
CAC generates propeller speed signal discrete for the multifunction computer (NP > 63%). This signal is used for propeller anti-icing system
control.
The indicator has digital display in XXX.X format.
Note: 100% NP represents 1200 RPM of the propeller.

Normal operation (green range) is below 41.6% and between 62.5 and 103.5%.
Abnormal operation to be monitored (amber range) is between 41.6 and 62.5% and above 103.5%.
Red limit is defined with reference to engine certified power: in case of engine power (function of TQxNP) beyond limit, readout will turn red.
Second red limit is 120% (allowable only for 20s transient). Readout will also turn red accordingly.
Note: When NP is in red range, "ENG OVER LIMIT" is triggered on EWD associated to master caution and Single Chime.

When the green READY light is illuminated, the propeller brake is ready to be operated.
As the "Prop Brake" control switch is selected "ON", electro valves E1 and E3 are energized. Electro valve E1 routes the pressure to the braking
chamber, E3 closes the return line.
As a result, the pressure within the braking chamber builds up causing the braking piston to move forward driving:
- the locking cone,
- the braking stop through the spring washers.
Then, the locking cone overcomes the locking balls:
- the brake unlocks from its locked off position (stowed).
The red UNLOCK light illuminates on Prop Brake overhead panel. Additionally, the spring washers are compressed.

At the end of the travel of the braking piston, the spring washers and braking stop assembly compress the stator discs against the rotor discs, so
the RGB stops.
As the brake reaches the locked ON position, the red UNLOCK light extinguishes and the blue "PROP BRK" light illuminates. As well on the EWD.
E1 and E3 solenoids are maintained energized for 6 seconds by the aircraft logic keeping the pressure in the braking chamber.

When the solenoids E1 and E3 are de-energized, the braking chamber is depressurized and unload the spring washers which release the force
they have stored.
Note: This force is applied against the braking piston which causes the locking cone to squeeze the guiding shaft. The brake is mechanically
locked.

As the Propeller Brake control switch is selected "OFF", the electro valve E2 is energized routing the pressure to the unlocking and releasing
chamber.
Immediately after, solenoids E1 and E3 are energized, pressurizing the braking chamber.
Due to the difference of forces applied on the locking cone and energy stored by the spring washers, the cone unlocks:
- Red UNLOCK light illuminates,
- Blue Propeller Brake light extinguishes.
The locking cone, braking piston, spring washers and braking stop assembly move rearward releasing the rotor discs. One second later E1 and E3
are de-energized.
As the brake is released, the red UNLOCK light goes OFF and the locking cone is maintained in its release position by the locking balls. E2 is de

Set both Power Levers on the take-off notch.
During the transition mode, both torque and NP values increases. Due to the PLs in the T/O notch, the CLs in AUTO position and the Power
Management selectors in T/O, propellers regulate at 100% NP in the propeller Speed Governing mode (Blade Angle Governing Mode).
A/C is airborne, landing gear up.
During climb sequence, set PWR MGT on CLB.
Both propellers regulate at 82% NP always in the propeller Speed Governing mode.
Cruise altitude has been reached, set PWR MGT on cruise.
Propeller speed does not change regardless of engines, power rating changes and atmospheric condition due to the PEC regulation (82% NP in
climb and in cruise).
Note:
- Should an engine failure occur, remaining engine will be set in Maximum Continuous Thrust through the power management MCT position.
Propeller will regulate at 100% Np.
- When flying in icing condition, if a significiant vibration occurs due to propeller residual icing, it is recommanded to set Conditions Levers on
100% OVRD position to increase the centrifugal effect. Engine power rating is unchanged.
Now, to start the descent phase, retard Power Levers toward FI.
Propeller speed stays at 82%.
In the final approach, PWR MGT must be set to T/O to ensure enough engine power in case of go-around. Do it.
PWR on T/O, landing gear down, flaps for landing, all is ready to land. Because of a time delay of 3 seconds at MCT before reseting NP to 100%,
and the PLs position (<62°), selecting PWR MGT from CRZ to T/O does not change propeller speed (82%). If a go-around procedure is to be
performed, PLs passing above 62° will act on the PEC system to reset propeller speed at 100% without moving Condition Levers.
After landing, propeller speed is reset to 100% to allow reverse operation by Weight On Wheels signal.
Set PLs in reverse position.
Reverse operation can only be obtained with both PEC selected and no FAULT.
Now, release PL to GI.
Note: Maintain engines for at least one minute between FI and GI for cooling and before selecting Fuel Shut-Off, maintain Feather Position for one
minute, required for oil capacity check.

61.00 GENERAL Safety and Precautions
Caution: Before removing a propeller, make certain that the working area is clear. Maintain propeller in a vertical position and do not make sudden
movements.
Caution: Carefully align shaft guide pins and propeller hub holes before engaging the propeller on the engine shaft.
Caution: You must remove the turning fixture when it is not in use to prevent possible damage to the pitch change system. Do not use any
mechanical device to turn the blades as this may cause damage to the leading and trailing edges.
Warning: Be carefull at propeller leading edges which become hot parts when electrical de-icing system is working.
Warning: Use goggles and gloves when you use lubrificating oil. Use it in an area with a good flow of air. Use lubrificating oil only for a short time.
It is toxic to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract.
Warning: notices have to be installed in the flight compartment to indicate that work is being performed on engine 1(2). Open, safety and tag the

- TRANSITION MODE:
- This is the mode between the fuel governing mode and the blade angle governing mode.
- It only applies on ground, or in flight at low power and low speed. The Np speed is comprised between 70.8% and PWR MGT selection (82%
or 100%).

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
Assuming engine is running with Power Lever at GI (Ground Idle position) and Condition Lever at FTR (Feather position).
When the Condition Lever is moved from "FTR" to "AUTO" :
- propeller unfeathers and speed increases,
- the fuel governing mode is activated (one third below "AUTO").
During unfeathering operation, "SGL CH" illuminates then extinguishes.
Note: On ground, at each propeller unfeathering, the low pitch protection is tested by the PEC and the back-up channel is used during 2s indicating
the correct operation of this channel.
Following unfeathering operation propeller blade angle reaches the low pitch blade angle which is set by the Power Lever, read on the PVM, then
sent to the PEC.

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
The PEC computes a pitch angle in accordance with the "GI" position. This is indicated by the LO PITCH light. Propeller speed is 70.8%, this
speed is controlled by the EEC which trims the fuel to maintain this speed.
This is call the fuel governing mode. As a result ACW is available.
Note: Fuel governing mode is invalid with EEC "OFF" or faulty, or PEC "OFF".
MX61.20_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 239
61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
Pushing the Power Lever from "GI" to "FI" causes torque to increase because blade angle increases. This is due to the new setting of the Power
Lever. As a result, beta angle increases.
Meanwhile the EEC maintains the propeller speed at 70.8.
Continuing to push the Power Lever above "FI", blade angle continues to increase and torque as well. the LO PITCH light extinguishes.
Propeller speed is maintained at 70.8 (fuel governing is still operated).
As Power Lever is continuously pushed forward, blade angle and torque increase.
Propeller speed leaves 70.8 to increase : this is called the transition mode.

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
Passing 62° position 100% Np is selected by the PIU provided that "TO" is selected on the PWR MGT panel.
Note: At that time, it is still a speed selection as long as take-off power is not available so, the propeller is still operating in transition mode.
When the Power Lever is positionned in the take-off notch identified by the white mark, the propeller leaves the transition mode for the propeller
speed governing mode. Now the propeller speed is governed by the PEC, comparing the speed selected to the actual propeller speed detected by
the speed sensors, if an error between both signals is detected the PEC provides a signal to the PVM to maintain the selected speed.

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
Feathering, autofeathering, ATPCS test and LO PITCH test cause the propeller speed to drop normally by increasing the blade angle. In these
cases, the fuel governing mode is cancelled and the EEC does not add fuel anymore. Should the cancel function fails, this would lead to
overtorque, increase of fuel flow and ITT increase.
Note: The fuel governing mode is confirmed cancelled in Hotel Mode.

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
Synchrophaser:
- Selection of synchrophasing is fully automatic in the PEC. When both propellers have stabilized at the selected propeller governing RPM,
synchrophaser control is initiated. Speed control and synchrophasing accuracy supplied by the PEC limits the amount of bias the synchrophaser
can give to the slave propeller speed to ± 6 RPM. If the RPM of either propeller differs from the selected governing RPM of the slave propeller by
more than 6 RPM, synchrophaser control is de-activated.
- The master propeller incorporates an additional, single coil pulse generator to supply a signal to the slave propeller PEC (ENG 2). This
redundant, separate pulse generator, is used to assure that a coil failure on one propeller will not affect the operation of the other. These features
make it possible to use synchrophasing during take-off since the slave propeller RPM will not be affected in the event of failure of the master
engine (ENG 1).

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
At take-off with the power management selected at "TO" and the Power Lever above 62°, the internal logic within the PIU selects the requested
propeller speed i.e. 100%.
The selected speed is routed to the PEC through the normally closed relay controlled by the Condition Lever in "AUTO" position.
The PEC compares the sensed propeller RPM to the selected governing RPM. The PEC calculates a pitch change direction and rate to correct the
RPM error. The corrected pitch change rate is computed based on:
- magnitude of RPM error,
- rate of change of RPM error,
- aircraft operating condition (airspeed and altitude).
The computed blade angle is sent to the torque motor driver which controls the EHV which meters the oil pressure to the propeller pitch change

Note: The primary channel is normally on control in a healthy system.
Changes in blade angle are fed back to the PEC through the blade angle RVDT to close control loop.

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
Selecting "CLB" (climb) provides a new speed setting to the PIU which selects 82%.
Note: Operation is the same as previously. This is also true for "MCT" (maximum continuous) and "CRZ" (cruise).
MX61.20_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 247
61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
During approach, "TO" is selected but the selection is not 100% : it is 82% (memorized by the PIU). This speed is used to minimize the noise
during approach.
Note: the power lever is below 62° (for instance "FI").
In case of GO AROUND the Power Lever is selected above 62° arming the propeller speed selection at 100%.
If the system fails, selecting the Condition Lever to "OVERRIDE" de-energize the relay which routes the information between the PIU and the PEC.
In case of loss of information, the PEC schedules a propeller speed at the default speed: the default speed is set at 100% Np.

61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
In no fault condition, following touchdown, a ground/flight logic reset 82% Np to 100% to allow the reverse operation. The overspeed governor
(refer to overspeed operation) will allow momentary propeller overspeed to reach full reverse operation. In any case, overspeed is limited to 15s.

ATPCS:
- ATPCS means Automatic Take-off Power Control System.
ATPCS arming conditions are the following:
- ATPCS "ARM" pushbutton is pressed in,
- "PWR MGT" selector at "TO" position,
- Power Levers 1 and 2 above 49°,
- Torque indicators above 46%.
Both AFUs exchange torque information.
MX61.20_.02.S2L2 Copyright © 2011-2012 - ATR Training Centre - All right reserved For Training Only Page 250
61.20 CONTROLLING 42 VERSION System Operation
When the conditions are met, each AFU provides a signal to each MFC.
MFCs, in turn, output a signal causing the "ARM" green light to illuminate.
Once armed, during take-off phase, if an engine fails and when the torque drops below 18%:
- the remaining engine is uptrimmed, and 2.15s later...
- the failed engine propeller is autofeathred and ATPCS disarmed,
- "ARM" green light extinguishes.
Note:
- Uptrim function is de-activated when "TO" position is de- selected.
- Autofeather function is inhibited on the opposite engine.
