4. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATION

4.1 Starting the APU


Before starting the APU and before the false starting there is necessary to turn on the all safety switches of the
APU circuits and fuel delivery pump.

4.1.1 Arrangement made for starting


The automatic starting the APU is carried out by electronic control system. After turning on the safety switch of
the fuel delivery pump and fuel valve, there can be carried out the APU starting. The APU operation during the
starting is presented on the cyclegram of starting and operation (fig. 12) and on the block-schema of the starting
and operation (fig. 11).
For the APU starting it is necessary:
- The switch ”START-FALSE START” on the control board of APU (”START APU”) is to be set into
position ”START”;
- Press the button ”STARTING”.
After this action there begins the operation of the electronic control system.
During the APU starting on the control board there is blinking the signal lamp „APU OPERATION“.
The appropriate switches provide the power supply to the electrical starter and ignition box. At the same time there
is turned on the fuel pump, fuel valve and oil valve. It is blocked takeoff of the electrical power from generator.
The electrical starter begins to rotate and it is turning the APU rotor through clutch and drive box. The fuel pump
delivers to the fuel system the needed amount of fuel and the regulator of fuel mass flow is keeping the constant
fuel mass flow at the inlet into the fuel collector. The servo-valve is open and into the combustion chamber it is
injected the minimum fuel amount. Simultaneously with a rotor rotation, there begins the operation of the oil
pump, providing the lubrication of the bearings and drive box. After ignition of the mixture in combustion
chamber, the rotor rpm are increasing and are settled at value about 25000 min-1 (~ 51%) Approximately at 15-th
second there begins to work the rpm regulation, the servo-valve increases throttling the by-passed fuel, it is
increasing the injection of the fuel into combustion chamber and the rpm regularly increase, stabilizing upon the
regime of about working rpm 49074 min-1 (100±1%). After reaching the appr. 39000 min-1 (80±1%) the control
box stops the supply power to electrical starter, the overrunning clutch disconnects the rotor of electrical starter
and its rpm drop to zero. After reaching the rpm about 44000 min-1 (90±1%), the control box stops power supply
to ignition box and on the control board there is signaled the operational regime (the signal lamp „APU
OPERATION“ permanently shines).
ATTENTION: After 30 sec from the moment of beginning the lamp shining it is possible to takeoff the electric
power or to begin starting the main engine.

4.1.2 False starting


For performing the false starting (cold rotation) it is necessary:
- The switch ”START-FALSE START” on the control board of APU is to be set into position ”FALSE
START;
- Press the button ”STARTING”.

Due to the pressing button „STARTING“ there begins the normal cycle of the APU starting, but without power
supply to the ignition box (see fig. 10. Block-schema of the starting and operation). During the false (dummy)
starting of the APU there is blinking the signal lamp „APU OPERATION“. After reaching the 8-th sec of
electrical starter work, the control box stops the starting cycle and there follows the switching off and APU stops.

4.1.3 APU starting when having the minus temperatures of the ambient air
Before starting the APU on the ground at temperature of ambient air lower than minus 40°С, it is necessary to
carry out heating the APU sector by air heated on temperature no more than 80 °С.
Starting the APU is possible to carry out at oil temperature in oil tank higher than minus 40 °C.

at the same time automatically increase rpm of APU, which equal to APU rpm used for starting the main engine
(103,9%). The anti-surge valve automatically closes during it, there is stopped the by-pass of the air into atmos-
phere and the compressed air is supplied from the APU compressor to the air starter. At the moment of ending the
engine starting, there is turned off the power supply to valve of AS, AS of the started engine closes, during this the
anti-surge valve opens and the compressed air is delivered to atmosphere. Within 3 – 5sec after closing the AS
valve, the rpm of APU automatically are dropping to 100% and APU is transfered to regime of idle run.
If the main engine starting is not successful, the regime of the engine starting continues certain time and after its
passing the APU returns automatically to the original state. After the prescribed time interval (according to the
engine manual) the starting process can be repeated.
Note: The cold rotation of the main engine is made in the same way as starting of the main engine, only at the
moment of ending the cold rotation, it is to be closed the valve AS, during this opens the anti-surge valve and at
the same time decrease the APU rpm till 100%.

4.3 Air takeoff for air-conditioning


APU is working at 100 % rpm, the signal lamp „ APU OPERATION “ shines and the compressed air is by-
passed into atmosphere. After opening the inlet valve into the air-condition system (provided by in-board
installation), the anti-surge valve closes automatically, the by-passing of the air in atmosphere stops and air
condition system is taking the air from APU. The mass flow of received air depends upon the set regime of air
condition and when having the simultaneous takeoff of the electric power from APU, it is limited according to the
temperature of the exhaust gases of APU.

4.5.2 APU monitoring indications


The control box LUN5271.80/CONB in addition to control box LUN5271.80/CONА is equipped by two-way
electronic serial interface RS 422. It allows two possibilities of equipment using on helicopter either by means of
standard analog equipment or alternatively to use digital signal from control box serial interface RS 422 to the
some multifunction display. Control box LUN5271.80/CONB transmits one data packet that contains complete
information about the actual state of the APU every second all the time.
That means user of APU equipped by control box LUN5271.80/CONB has two possibilities of monitoring APU:
- to use standard analog equipment - indicators and signal lamp
- or to use digital signal from control box serial interface RS 422 to the some multifunction display

4.5.2.1 Analog indication of APU parameters


Checking and control of APU operation is carried out by means of signal lamps in pilot cabin, situated on the
control board of the APU (board of APU starting) and also by means of indicators:
- indicator of gas temperature (EGT APU):
Indication of the temperature of exhaust gases of APU (°С) at turned on power supply to control box of the

- indicator of air pressure (AIR PRESS APU):


Indication of the overpressure of air (kp/cm2) at air takeoff from APU in front of air starters of the main engines
– indicator is not in completion of APU delivery

- control lamp "APU OPERATION ":


During the starting and (false) dummy starting of APU the lamp is blinking. The permanent shining is attained
when operating at the working rpm and lamp continues to shine when the rpm are in the prescribed range. When
having the shining lamp ”APU OPERATION”, there is allowed the power takeoff from APU.

- signal lamp "OIL":


The shining of this lamp can occur when having one of three following cases: contaminantion of the oil filter,
minim. amount of oil in oil tank (only on the ground) or exceeding the temperature of oil in tank.
Note: In flight of the helicopter the circuits of signaling device of the minimum oil level are disconnected.
If lamp „OIL“ shines on the ground, it is necessary to turn off the APU.
In extreme cases it is allowed to continue the APU operation up to 5 min after panel OIL lights up.
After APU shutdown it is to be checked and recorded the level of oil in oil tank, checked the magnetic plug,
cleaned the filter in accordance with technological card No 3 of chapter 7 of this Manual.
If lamp „OIL“ shines in flight, it is necessary to turn off the APU.
When it is necessary, it is allowed to continue the APU operation for 15 min after lamp OIL lights up.

- signal lamp „FUEL FILTER“:


Shining is signaling the contamination of the inlet fuel filter in the Block of filter and servo-valve or the filter of
the back fuel.
After lighting up it is necessary to turn off the APU. In the extreme cases it is possible to end the working
regime of the APU after maximum 5 min work of APU at regime. After turning off the APU it is to be done the
cleaning of filters, in accordance with technological cards №. 5 and of chapter 7 of this Manual.

- signal lamp "APU FAILURE":


Shining is signaling, that the APU has been switched off by the APU safety system of automatic protection. If
the APU has been switched off as a result of failures out of the APU systems, it is possible to carry out starting
and operate APU again. In an opposite case, it is necessary to clarify the sort of failure on the signaling board of
failures and proceed in accordance with point 4.6.2. (APU starting) or in accordance with chapter 9 of Manual
(Analysis and the methods of elimination of failures). The reason of APU switching off can be determined on the
board of failures – shining of the certain light diod is signaling the reason of the APU switching off. The
signaling will be turned off when making the following APU starting, i.e. including dummy and unsuccessful
startings! The information about the reason of failure is not saved!

4.5.2.2 Digital indication of APU parameters from serial interface RS 422 of control box LUN5271.80/CONB
Checking and control of APU operation is carried out by means of digital signal from control box serial interface
RS 422 to the boarding multifunction display. When is switched on power supply of control box
LUN5271.80/CONB, digital output of data transfer from serial interface RS 422 to transmit data automatically
every one second. To the output of serial interface RS 422 is possible to connect 16 pcs of standard RS422
receivers. The parameters of APU and essential information about APU operation that are provided by the control
box serial interface RS 422 – this is value of gas temperature, some APU error or operation messages is possible
to display on the boarding multifunction display. Therefore it is not necessary to install the indicator of gas
temperature, standard control board of the APU in pilot cabin with control and signal lamps neither panel of
signaling the failures with light diodes.

There are several possibilities for full usage this serial interface of control box LUN5271.80/CONB:
a) Signalling the attainment of periodic service works- the attainment of APU operating hours, exchange of oil,
replacement of spark plugs and signalling the exceeding of APU parameter- APU gas temperature, APU speed,
For this signalling is recommended to use tricoloured LED with three outputs on common anode. Yellow color
will be created by shining of red and green LED at the same time on the identical chip.
Note:
Each of the monitored parameters has 2 values configured in the memory module: „orange” and „red” (the red is
always higher). When all of the monitored parameters are OK (lower than the set limits), the LED lights up green
for 3 seconds always after the power supply of the control box is turned on, then the LED does not light. If one of
the monitored parameters exceeds the preset value, the corresponding LED lights up and lights permanently in
orange or red.

might be used e.g. for panel of signaling the failures or throw control box serial interface RS 422 to the
multifunction display. It is also equipped with an internal diagnostics, which is checking the operation of the basic
modules, connecting aggregates of the equipment, it is comparing the APU operation with prescribed programs
and existing appropriate commands and information. In case of deviation from the program the microprocessor
provides the interruption of power supply to aggregates and stops the APU automatically.
After APU switching off there does not shine the control lamp „APU OPERATION“ and lights up the signal
lamp "APU FAILURE". In the control box there is provided recording of the failures (defects) of APU with a
possibility of further evaluation. The shining of the certain light diode (there are 9 light diodes) on the panel of
failures is signaling the sort of failure, which caused the APU switch off. The circuits of signaling the failures in
the control box are permanently powered from the voltage of board system, power supply is continuing also after
switch off of the APU. The power supply of this circuit can be stopped only by switching off the certain safety
element, when also the light diodes are switched off. These light diodes are also switched off when making the
following APU starting.

TECHNOLOGICAL CARD № 21

Work designation: CHECKING AND REPLACEMENT OF ELECTRICAL STARTER


Description applies to figs. 36, 37 and 38.

Content of operation and technological requirements

The works are to be performed in following order:

Note:
For performing the checking of the electrical starter it is necessary either to remove the APU from the object board
and to place it into the transporting frame of the APU or it is possible only unfasten of APU from mounting points
on the object (it is not necessary to disconnect cable bundle) and to lift up the APU for approximately 150 mm.

In order to make possible the removal of electrical starter without removal of the APU from the object board, it is necessary
to provide approach to the starter, i.e. make a technological entry window in the partition under the board channel of the air
intake.

1) Removal of electrical starter from the APU (see fig. 36):

а) Disconnect the electrical line of power supply from the terminal block of the starter by means of releasing the nuts
(2). Screw off by spanner 8 mm the bolt (6) on the drive box (3) and disconnect the grounding wire of the
electrical starter (5).

b) Unlock and by spanner 8 screw off the nut (1). Remove the clamping band of the V-type collar (4). Remove the
electrical starter from the drive box (3) of the APU.
I case, that removal of the starter by hand is impossible, it is allowed it’s releasing by means of screwdriver, placed
into the groove of the drive box flange.

2) Checking the overrunning clutch is to be done in following order (see fig. 37):

а) Check the clutch functionality:


- when turning the gear wheel of driving the electrical starter (1) to the right (by hand – in clockwise direction) the
clutch must be closed (rotor of the electrical starter is turning together with a gear wheel of the electrical starter),
- when turning the gear wheel of driving the electrical starter (1) to the left (by hand – in anti- clock-wise direction)
the clutch must be disconnected (rotor of electrical starter does not rotate, the wheel of electrical starter rotates
freely). In other case, if rotor does rotate, the electrical starter must be replaced!

Note: Rotation of the rotor of electrical starter can be checked only after the cover (1) removal (see fig. 38).

b) Check the gap V between the lugs of the casing of clutch (2) and separator of clutch (3) in the locked position, by
means of standard gap gauge (calibre) through the holes (4) on the face of starter (see fig 37). Checking the gaps is
to be carried out on the all lugs of the clutch casing and clutch (3) separator.
In case, when the gap is smaller than 0.5 mm, it is necessary to replace the starter!

3) Checking the length and replacement of brushes is to be carried out in order as follows (see fig 38):

а) Unlock and screw off 3 screws (3) and remove the cover (1) of the current scanner from the front casing of the
electrical starter.

b) By means of clean compressed air remove the carbon dust from the current scanner

c) Check the working surface of collector. In case of damage replace the electrical starter!

d) Check the wear and condition of brushes (4) in order as follows:


- screw off the screw (5), remove the spring (7), which presses the brush (4) to the collector and remove the brush
from the brush holder (6).
- brushes, heights of which is less than 11 mm must be replaced by new ones from the set of spare parts.
- insert the new brushes in opposite order.

Page 99
PG 05-01
MANUAL FOR THE OPERATION AND TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE
March 2009

- check the free motion of brushes in the holder and the proper position of springs (7).

e) Set the cover (1) back on the front casing (2), screw in the screws (3) and fix them by locking wire.

4) Installation of the electrical starter on the APU (see fig. 36):

а) Inspect visually the rubber sealing ring (5) (see fig. 37). In case of its damage replace it.

b) The ring lubricate by CIATIM 201 and install the electrical starter on the drive box.

Note: Starter is to be oriented with respect to gudgeon in the flange of clamping. When installing it is not allowed to
make an orientation of the starter in proper position holding it by cover (1).

c) Set the clamping band of the V-type collar (4) and tighten the nut (1) by means of the calibrated wrench, torque
moment of tightening 2-3 Nm.

d) Connect the electrical line of power supply to the terminals of the electrical starter. During it there must be observed
the polarity of power supply. Tighten the nuts (2) by torque calibrated wrench; moment of tightening is 2-3 Nm.

e) Connect the grounding wire of electrical starter (5) on the drive box (3) and screw in by spanner 8 the bolt (6) into the
drive box.

5) About the works carried out make a record into APU log book, including the record about measurement of gap V values
and the length of brushes of electrical starter.

А/ SOURCE OF ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY


1. Purpose

The source of electrical power supply, it is a facility intended to supply to board system of the
object the alternate current of constant frequency. It is used in process of pre-flight
preparation or during the flight, it can also be used as an emergency source of electrical power
supply when occuring failures of main power sources in flight.

2. Technical data

Nominal three-phase voltage 3 x 115/200 V at f = 400 Hz

Nominal power output 20 kVA

3. Description of design

The source of power supply consists of following elements:

• Generator P/N 20040 - 100


• Control box of generator P/N 2438 - 100
• Transformer P/N 20736 - 100

4. Principle of operation

The three-phase generator ‚ driven from the drive box of the APU, transforms the mechanical
energy into electric energy in form of three-phase alternate current 115/200V at frequency of
400 Hz. The control box of generator provides the constant voltage of generator and evaluates
the voltage scanned from the transformers. The transformers P/N 20736 – 100 (situated as
independend part) and P/N 20736 – 100A (it is common part of generator, see fig. 1) have
been designed as through-passing transformers, which are elements sensing maximum current
and differential protection. The control box of generator permanently evaluates the data of
transformers and compares them with programmed values. In case of short circuit on the
terminal block, in case of short circuit on the supply line or in case of exceeding the
programmed maximum current, the control box of generator reduces or switches off the
exciting voltage of generator. In this way it is working the protection of generator against
overloading and possible damage.

5. Installation and connection

- Generator is situated on driven box of the APU co-axially with the engine rotor. The
generator control box and transformer are situated separately on the object board in
section of radio instruments.
- The electrical connections are carried out in accordance with schema, presented in fig. 1.

3. Description of structure

The drawing of main dimensions of generator is in fig. 2.


The main elements of generator structure are in fig. 3, 4.
In the outer case (6), there are situated the stator of main generator, stator of auxiliary exciter
(13) and stator of external alternate exciter. To this case, it is fixed the holder of transformer
(4) with transformer of differential and overcurrent protection (7), exit block (5) and
connector (8).
Rotor winding (9) of the main generator of altrnate current, rotor winding of the alternate
exciter (10) and the wheel of radial fan (11) with constant magnets of the auxiliary exciter are
pressed on the common shaft (2) with inner evolvent-type key connection.
The hollow shaft (2) is situated on bearings (3). The bearings are filled with high-temperature
lubricant. The sections of the bearings are tightened by means of chambers with the same
pressure, which are also tightened by labyrinth-type sealings.
The transfer of torque moment from drive box of APU is provided by means of torsional
connecting shaft (12), which is inserted into the slot-type connection of the hollow shaft (2).

4. Description of operation

Three-phase generator, driven from drive box of the APU, transformes the mechanical power
into electrical power in form of three-phase alternate current 115/200 V with a frequency of
400 Hz. Generator is made as brush-less three-stage cascade, consisting of the main generator
of alternate current, alternate exciter with rotating rectifier and auxiliary exciter. Together
with installed current transformer of the differential and overcurrent protection it creates the
single block.

The generator consists of three parts:

The main generator of the alternate current – it is a four-pole aggregate with smooth rotor.
The three-phase winding of the stator with separated node is connected according to schema
„star“. The node of stator winding is connected with one of transformers of differential and
overcurrent protection, situated in holder on the case. The construction of stator makes
possible the effective heat transfer to the case.

Exciter of alternate current - it is a six-pole generator of the alternate current with


protruding poles and with excitation winding on the stator. In grooves of the rotor there is
three-phase working winding connected according to schema „star“, which through the
rotating rectifier supplies the power to winding of the main generator of the alternate current.
The rotating rectifier is designed upon the bridge three-phase schema. The construction of the
alternate exciter provides the safe work up to the rpm 18 000 min-1.
Auxiliary exciter – it is a six-pole generator of the alternate current with an excitation from
cobalt-samarium permanent magnets, situated in casing of radial fan. The three-phase
working winding is connected with collector. Outlet of this exciter is used, at first for
excitation of the second stage of cascade and at second – for supply of block of generator
control. The auxiliary exciter is able to bear the permanent short circuit at exits.
When occurs the rotation of the generator rotor, so in its first stage, i.e. in auxiliary exciter, it
is induced the alternate voltage, which after rectifying in block of generator control, is
stabilised and is powering the winding of excitation of the alternate exciter. Due to it, it is
quaranted the high reliability of the autonomous exciter. The winding of excitation of the
second stage of generator, i.e. alternate exciter, after being powered from the auxiliary exciter

Page 7
PG 05-01, Appendix 1
January 2003

through block of control, creates the magnetic field. In the three-phase winding, which is
situated in grooves of rotor of alternate exciter, there is induced the alternate voltage, which
after rectifying in rotating rectifier is powering the winding of the third stage of generator, i.e.
the main generator of the alternate current.
The radial fan provides the effective cooling of generator.

5. Rules of assembly (see fig. 5)

4. Description of operation

The control box of generator is regulating the exit voltage of generator of alternate current by
means of regulationg the currect of excitation. The basic part of the control box, it is
microprocessor, which applying the recorded programm is carrying the following functions:

• Function of regulation (A)


• Function of protection (B)
• Function of testing (C)

(A) Function of regulation

The control electronic schema carries out the function of regulation, what does mean, that the
exit voltage of generator is kept inside the programmed range (115 – 119 V) by means of
changing the current of generator excitation. The regulation of this current is carried out by
means of impulse modulation according to impulse width. The value of exit voltage is
scanned from the block of exit terminals of the generator. The voltage is regulated up to value
of 117 V ± 2V, in frequency range from 340 to 490 Hz and loading from 0 to 1,5-multiple
value of nominal current. The voltage is stabilised in range of 115 to 119 V, in frequency
range of 340 to 490 Hz at loading from 1,5 to 2-multiple of nominal current value.
The transient and stationary values of voltage are in accordance with requirement of standard
EN 2282.
The frequency of the generator switching on is adjusted to the value of 380± 5 Hz.

(1) Parameters of voltage regulation:

Table 1
Generator Loading Exit voltage Excitation
rpm (A) effective current
(rev.min.-1) (V) (A)
12000 No loading 115 to 119 0,4 to 0,6
12000 58 115 to 119 1,2 to 1,55

It is allowed the jump-type switching on and switching off the nominal loading of 58 А.
When jump-type switching on the loading, the voltage does not drop under 80 V and in the
interval of time less than 100 μsec there occurs setting the nominal value of voltage. When
switching off the loading, the exit voltage does not exceed the value 140 V in period of time
less than 100 μsec.

(2) 1.7- multiple loading:

The generator can be operated within 5 sec for having the 1.7-multiple (97A) value of
nominal current. After switching off the loading, the schemas of regulation are establishing
the nominal state in period of time no more than 150 μsec.
The current of short circuit of generator is from 150 to 250 A.

Page 16
PG 05-01, Appendix 1
January 2003

(B) Function of protection

The control system is checking the data of measuring transformers of current, the values of
phases voltage and frequencies. In the control box of generator there are programmed the
following parameters of protection.

Overloading
Threshold: 135 ± 2 V, delay 0,7 - 1,1 sec
Action: Disconnecting the generator switch and switching off the excitation current.
Threshold: 210 V, delay 60 μseс
Action: Disconnecting the generator contactor and switching off the excitation current.

(1) Reduced voltage


Threshold: 103,5 ± 2,5 V, delay 6 ± 1 с
Action: Disconnecting the generator contactor and switching off excitation current.

(2) Asymmetry of loading


Threshold: 25 - 35 A, delay 0 sec
Action: Disconnecting the generator contactor and switching off the excitation current.

(3) Switching off the single phase


Delay less than 3 sec.
Action: Disconnecting the generator contactor and switching off the excitation current.

(4) Protection against the reduction of frequency


Protection 1: threshold from 320 to 335 Hz, delay 0 seс.
Action: switching off the excitation current.
Protection 2: threshold 375 ± 5 Hz, delay 6 ± 1 sec.
Action: switching off the current of excitation.
After switching the protection and when frequency increases and attains the working range,
then the generator switches on automaticaly (reversible protection).

(5) Protection against increasing the frequency


Protection 1: threshold from 465 to 480 Hz, delay 0 seс.
Action: switching off the excitation current.
Protection 2: threshold 425 ± 5 Hz, delay 6 ± 1 seс.
Action: switching off the excitation current.
After switching and when the frequency decreases up to working range, the generator does
not switch on automaticaly (nonreversible protection). For switching on the generator it is
necessary manually to switch off and switch on the generator contactor.

(6)Failure of the rotating rectifier


Delay 2 - 3 seс.
Action: disconnecting the generator contactor and switching off the excitation current.

C. Function of testing

Operation:
Switch on the switch of generator, during this the generator does not rotate and there is
supplied the voltage of 28 V. Press the button of testing (8) on the front wall of control box
(see fig. 9).

When pressing the button (8) in the microprocessor of control box it is activated the testing
programme. The programme step by step provides the testing of individual components,
turned on into the circuits of control and protection of the box. In case of positive result of
testing process, the testing light diode LED (9), shining when pressing the button (8), goes
out after expiring the time 7 ± 1,4 seс. Repeating this test it is possible after elapsing the time
of 10 sec.

4. Description of operation

Action of the differential overcurrent protection:


- In such a case, when the current of generator loading is conducted at the same time
through primary windings of both transformers (i.e. when having the normal operation),
the induced voltages in secondary windings are mutually subtracted and the differencial
voltage must not close the circuit of the differential current protection, which is in the
control box of generator.
- In such a case, when the current of generator loading is conducted through the primary
winding of one transformer only (i.e. when occuring the short circuit of inputs of bus bar
etc.) the differential voltage must provide the switching on the circuits of differential
current protection.

Action of overcurrent protection:


The exit secondary voltage of transformer P/N 20736 – 100A (situated on the case of
generator) it is compared in control box of generator with programmed value of the voltage.
