2. Purpose of Equipment

The Model PS-835 Emergency Power Supply is designed as a 24 Vdc (nominal) emergency power
source for prolonging the operation of a connected standby attitude indicator when the aircraft main
power buss has de-energized. The aircraft main power buss provides trickle charging to the PS-835
while the aircraft performs normally.

The output of the PS-835 can be subsequently converted using either Avionics Systems Model SI-
100( ) Static Inverter or the SC-841 Static Converter to provide power for standby indicators of
different power requirements.

The SI-100 provides outputs of 115 Vac or 5 Vac, 400Hz either at single or three phase alternating
current. The SC-841 provides direct current outputs of 2.0 to 6.5 Vdc (user adjustable).

3. Physical Description

The PS-835 Emergency Power Supply is fully enclosed unit, designed to easily mount onto an
existing avionics shelf or the optional mounting rack Avionics Systems Model MTG-101 (part
number 572-1424-01), with models available with lightning surge protection. The face of the unit
provides individual cell monitor LED's, voltage output monitor LED's, battery Heater Operation
Monitor LED's, and a battery test switch.

4. Functional Description

A. Power Input

Aircraft 28 Vdc is connected to the emergency power buss through pin 10 of connector J1. The
input is diode isolated from the internal batteries and circuits to prevent battery discharge in the
event of a short circuit, or battery draw caused by low input from the aircraft main DC buss,
such as at engine start.

Revision B, Change 5 March 13, 2009
L-3 Avionics Systems
Component Maintenance Manual
Model PS-835( ) // 501-1228-( )

B. Battery Heating

Battery heating is provided by an etched foil Heating Resistor (HR1) mounted onto the unit
chassis.

With 28 Vdc applied to the unit and the temperature is 19 !C (66!F) the green HEATER ON
LED (Figure 1, Item 3) will come on showing that the heater is operating. The red LED will
come on if the temperature exceeds 55!C.

The heating element, also, functions as a test load during the time the power supply is being
tested aboard the aircraft. The HEATER ON LED will come on when the TEST SWITCH
(Figure 1, Item 4) on the front panel is pressed.

C. Over-Temperature Protection

When the temperature of the power supply exceeds +55!C, the temperature sensor imbedded
within the Battery CCA (A1) will cause the OVER 55!C LED (Figure 1, Item 3) to go on. The
heating control circuitry would then cease the heating-resistor's operation. The heating circuit
will remain inoperable until the temperature of sensor drops low enough to again permit heater
operation.

D. Battery Voltage Level Detection

There are four OUTPUT VOLTAGE MONITOR LED's on the front panel of the supply (Figure
3, Item 2). These indicate the state-of-charge of the stored power. The LED's go on when the
TEST SWITCH is pressed or when the supply is being charged.

The power supply is considered greater than 50% charged when the 24V LED momentarily
illuminates when the TEST SWITCH is pressed, and fully discharged when the 20V LED is
goes out.

5. Continued Airworthiness (Maintenance)

PS-835 Emergency Power Supplies require periodic checks and scheduled testing. Refer to the
Testing and Fault Isolation section of this manual for the following checks:

Periodic 3-6 Month Check


Annual Capacity Testing

A need for maintenance is indicated when unit fails the tests described above or functional
monitoring as described below.

Functional monitoring is based upon the following:

Observation of self-test failure notification (applicable only when unit has self-test capability).

Visual observation by the user.

This unit has unlimited service life, where service life is defined as that point in time when repair is
no longer economical.

10. Charge and Discharge Performance

A. General Battery and Cell Information

The cells are constructed with thin pure lead plates. The overall chemistry is typical of the
traditional lead-acid battery. A unique aspect of the sealed lead-acid cell is that the majority of
the oxygen generated within the cell during an overcharge condition is recombined within the
cell. The quality of the lead grids used in construction minimize the evolution of hydrogen
when overcharging occurs.

Each cell has a self-resealing release valve designed to operate in the 50-60 psi range. In
normal use, the battery internal cell pressure never exceeds 20 psi. This means that in normal
conditions the cell can be operated in a perfect vacuum and still have a sufficient safety margin,
so that venting will not occur.

NOTE: Batteries should not be left in a discharged state under any circumstances.

Cells should not be left connected to a load when in a discharged state or their ability to accept a
charge will be impaired. The cell may develop shorts or chemical action will create water that
will freeze at low temperatures and destroy the cell.

B. Battery/Cell Out-Gassing

CAUTION: SOME OFNOT


SHOULD THE BE
TYPES OF GASSES
CONTAINED IN ATHAT MAY NON-VENTED
CLOSED, VENT FROM AAREA.
CELL ARE TOXIC AND

CAUTION: CELL/BATTERY CORROSION IS EVIDENCE OF THE LOSS OF SEAL, LIKELY CAUSED BY


OUT GASSING. CELLS MUST BE REPLACED WHEN CORROSION ISAPPARENT.

All lead-acid cells and batteries produce gasses during charging. The amount and type of gas
produced depends on state of charge, rate of charge, chemical composition of the electrolyte,
and general condition of the battery. Normally, gasses produced are recombined within the
cells to form oxides and water. Venting occurs when excessive charge rates are placed on the
battery or because of a defective cell (s) which subjects the remaining good cells to excessive
charge rates. Venting may also result from battery abuse or neglect.

If the odor of rotten eggs becomes apparent in the cockpit, pull the aircraft Emergency Power
Supply circuit breaker. The rotten egg odor is evidence that the lead-acid cells vent due to
prolonged high rate overcharging. Although the possibility of toxic levels is extremely remote,
the precaution of pulling the circuit breaker will prevent increased discomfort from the odor.

Venting is an indication that the Power Supply in not controlling the charging process. If
venting occurs the factory recommends that the Power Supply be removed from the
aircraft, tested according to the procedures listed in this manual, and to replace the
defective cell(s).

C. Storage Time and Temperature

NOTE: Avionics Systems Service Letter SL-64 contains additional information on Lead
Acid Battery out-gassing and Service Letter SL-80 contains additional information
for Float (Trickle) Charging Emergency Power Supplies during storage.

If a ready condition is required of a power supply being stored, recharge batteries every 4 months
for 1 hour at 28 to 30Vdc input. Do not store where temperature may exceed 85!F (29!C).

Low storage temperatures on fully charged cells lessen the rate of self-discharge, thus
increasing shelf life. There is no danger of damage to cells since they will not freeze even at
temperatures of -75! F. On the other hand, high storage temperatures will accelerate self-
discharge of the cells and storage under such conditions is not recommended. Refer to Figure 5.

D. Cell Current Discharge Time

The rate of energy being withdrawn from a cell affects the amount of energy that can be
obtained over time. For example, at low current rates the energy in a cell lasts longer than at
high current rates. The actual hours of service (Amp-hours, or Ah) from fully charged "D" or
"X" cells can be determined from Figure 6 below.

E. Cell Voltage Discharge Time

Figure 7 displays typical discharge curves at room temperature. At -55!C an internal heater
blanket maintains the cells at no lower than 0!C for the "X'' type cells and 20!C for the "S" type
cells. A typical discharge rate with the cells at 0!C reduces the capacity by approximately 15%.

11. Operation

A. Battery Testing

The majority of the components installed in the PS-835 operate only during test functions. The
exceptions are those associated with the battery heating system, and the over 55!C warning
system.

NOTE: Test functions should be performed only with the main buss not providing power
to the unit (off or disconnected).

Toggling the remote or pressing the unit TEST SWITCH (Figure 3, Item 4) on the power supply
front panel bypasses the thermostatic heat control system. That, in-turn, applies the battery
voltage to the internal battery heater. While in the TEST mode, the batteries are placed under
an approximate 7.5" load. The voltage level detection system will then analyze the battery
voltage level and will cause the appropriate OUTPUT VOLTAGE MONITOR LED's to go on.

NOTE: Ensure Test Switch is returned to normal position and all LED's are extinguished.

NOTE: If the unit TEST SWITCH or Remote Test Switch is depressed at a battery
ambient temperature of 55 !C or greater, the unit internal heater will not turn ON
to provide a test load for the unit battery. This is not an ideal condition for
battery state of charge tests and should not be considered valid.

If the remote test is being performed, the Remote Battery-Voltage Level Lamp will go on,
provided the internally-loaded battery voltage level is greater than 24 Vdc.

The INDIVIDUAL CELL MONITOR LED's function as GO/NO GO indicators each of the
PS-835 lead acid cells. In case of low output capacity, these LED's will indicate which cell or
cells have failed. The variation of brightness of the LED's does not indicate cell condition.

12. Theory of Operation

All the schematic diagrams are included in this section. Any distinctions between drawing numbers
and assembly part numbers that apply to the description of the Theory of Operation are highlighted.

The majority of the components installed in the PS-835 operate only during test functions. The
exceptions are those associated with the battery heating and over 55! C warning system.

NOTE: Test functions must be performed with no input to J1 connector pin J1-10.

Various MOD level units exist in the field and are distinguished in this description by the various
Battery Monitor CCA part numbers that may appear for repair.

* Components on Battery Monitor CCA part numbers 542-1364-( ) and 542-1495 ( ).


**Components on Battery Monitor CCA part numbers 542-1521-( ), 542-2625-( ) and 542-2635-( ).

A. Power Input
Aircraft 28 Vdc is connected to the emergency power buss through J-1 connector pin J1-10 and
diode A1CR1. Diode (A1CR1) isolates the internal batteries and circuits in case of a short
circuit or low input from the aircraft main DC buss.

Revision B, Change 3 August 29, 2007
L-3 Avionics Systems
Component Maintenance Manual
Model PS-835( ) // 501-1228-( )

The 28 Vdc input through * A2CR1 (**A2CR6) or the TEST SWITCH (A1S1) provides the
operating voltage at pin 4 of A2U1 and U2.

B. Heating Resistor (A1HR1)

Heating Resistor (A1HR1) provides heat to the battery cells and functions as the internal 7.5 "
nominal test load. When 28 Vdc is applied to J1 connector pin J1-10 and the unit temperature is
19C! (66!F) or less, or when the TEST SWITCH (A1S1) is pressed, A2U2-pin 1 is placed in a
high state which turns on HEATER ON LED A2DS17 and transistor * A2Q5 (**A2Q2)
allowing current flow through A1HR1, so long as the temperature remains less than 55 C.

C. Heater Control

Temperature Transducer (A1U1) is a temperature sensitive device that varies current flow
through potentiometer A2R8, TEMP CONTROL. If the power supply temperature is 19! to 27!
C (63! to 81! F) or more current flow through A2R8 is heavy, forcing A2U2-pin 1 into a low
output cutting off LEDA2DS17, transistor *A2Q5 (**A2Q2), and heating resistor A1HR1. If
the unit temperature should drop to 19 ! C (66! F) or less, the current flow through A2R8 would
not be sufficient to hold A2U2- pin 1 in a low state, the high output would turn on LED
A2DS17, transistor *A2Q5 (**A2Q2), and heating resistor A1HR1.

D. Over-Temperature Protection

Thermal Resistor A1RT1 is a temperature sensitive device that changes resistance rapidly (to
over 1 Megohm) if the temperature of the surface where it is mounted exceeds +55! C (131! F).
During normal operation or test, the potential applied to the inverting input pin 6 of * A2U1
(**A2U1-13) is such that *A2U1 output pin 7 (**A2U1-14) is high, turning ON transistor
*A2Q6 (**A2Q3).

If the temperature exceeds +55! C, Thermal Resistor A1RT1 will change value reducing the
conduction current and applying a high positive voltage to the inverting inputs of * A2U1-pin 6
(**A2U1-pin 13). This causes *A2U1-pin 7 (**A2U1-pin 14) to go low, OVER 55! C LED
A2DS18 to go on, and turning off transistor *A2Q6 (**A2Q3), thereby preventing heating
resistor operation. The circuit will remain in this state until the temperature of Thermal Resistor
A1RT1 is low enough to a gain permit conduction.

E. Battery Voltage Level Detection

The outputs of *A2U1-pins 1, 8 and 14 (**pins 1, 7 and 8) and A2U2-pin 8 are normally high
due to the voltage applied to the non-inverting inputs by *A2Q7 (**A2Q1), resistor *A2R18
(**A2R21) and the voltage applied to the inverting inputs from voltage divider network
resistors *A2R19 through A2R22, A2R24 and A2R25 (**A2R5, A2R6, A2R12, A2R17,
A2R22 and A2R23).

The potentiometer *A2R25 (**A2R5) is adjusted so that OUTPUT VOLTAGE MONITOR


LED DS15 will go out when the voltage at J1 connector pin J1-11 is below 24 Vdc. When this
requirement has been met, the remaining OUTPUT VOLTAGE MONITOR LED's will go on or
off when their representative voltage levels are present at J1 connector pin J1-11.

Revision B February 28/2004
L-3 Avionics Systems
Component Maintenance Manual
Model PS-835( ) // 501-1228-( )

F. Test

Depressing the remote or unit TEST SWITCH applies the battery output voltage through J1
connector pins J1 pins 2 and 6 to diode *A2CR4 (**A2CR3), to pin J1-4 of A2U1 and A2U2;
through diode *A2CR3 (A2CR4) to diode *A2CR11 (**A2CR2) and resistor *A2R5
(**A2R3) to bypass the heater turn-off system. While the TEST SWITCH is being held, the
internal heater A1HR1 is turned on, placing the batteries under an approximate 7.5" load. The
voltage level detection system analyzes the battery voltage level at this time and will cause the
appropriate LED's (DS13 through DS16) to go on.

NOTE: If unit TEST SWITCH or Remote Test Switch is depressed at a battery ambient
temperature of 55! C or greater, the unit internal heater will not turn on to
provide a test load for the unit battery.

When a remote test is being performed, the Remote Battery-Voltage Level Lamp will go on,
provided the loaded battery voltage level is greater than 24 Vdc.

NOTE: INDIVIDUAL CELL MONITOR LED's (DS1 through DS12) function as


GO/NO GO indicators when testing PS-835 lead acid cells. In case of low output
capacity, these LED's will indicate which cell or cells have failed. The
brightness of the LED's may vary and does not indicate cell condition.

Testing and Fault Isolation

1. General

This section of the manual provides the following procedures; bench test, battery charging, periodic
testing, performance tests and circuit card tests for the PS-835 Emergency Power Supply.

NOTE: Read these procedures thoroughly before proceeding with any testing.

These instructions will offer reference to supporting Illustrated Parts List illustrations that will
appear in parenthesis identifying figure and item number (sample 1-50). In addition, electronic
components will include Reference Designator identification in parenthesis indicating the major
assembly and component reference number that is listed or identified on the appropriate schematic
(sample A1R8). Schematic drawings are located in the Description and Operation section.

A. Battery/Cell Out-gassing (Venting)

CAUTION: SOME OF THE TYPES OF GASSES THAT MAY VENT FROM A CELL ARE TOXIC AND
SHOULD NOT BE CONTAINED IN A CLOSED, NON-VENTED AREA.

CAUTION: CELL/BATTERY CORROSION IS EVIDENCE OF THE LOSS OF SEAL, LIKELY CAUSED BY


OUT GASSING. CELLS MUST BE REPLACED WHEN CORROSION IS APPARENT.

All lead-acid cells and batteries produce gasses during charging. The amount and type of gas
produced depends on state of charge, rate of charge, chemical composition of the electrolyte,
and general condition of the battery. Normally, gasses produced are recombined within the
cells to form oxides and water.

Venting occurs when excessive charge rates are placed on the battery or because of a defective
cell(s), which will subject the remaining good cells to excessive charge rates. Venting may also
result from battery abuse or neglect.

If the odor of rotten eggs becomes apparent in the cockpit, pull the aircraft Emergency Power
Supply circuit breaker. The rotten egg odor is evidence that the lead-acid cells vent due to
prolonged high rate overcharging. Although the possibility of toxic levels is extremely remote,
the precaution of pulling the circuit breaker will prevent increased discomfort from the odor.

Venting is an indication that the Power Supply in not controlling the charging process. If
venting occurs, the factory recommends that the Power Supply be removed from the aircraft,
and tested to identify and replace defective cell(s).

NOTE: With proper maintenance and periodic testing, the likelihood of any battery
developing undetected problems is very remote.

2. Battery Testing

NOTE: Test functions should be performed only with the main buss not providing power to
the unit (OFF of disconnected).

Toggling the unit TEST SWITCH (Figure 104, Item 4) on the power supply front panel bypasses the
thermostatic heat control system. That, in-turn, applies the battery voltage to the internal battery
heater. While in the TEST mode, the batteries are placed under an approximate 7.5Ω load. The
voltage level detection system will then analyze the battery voltage level and will cause the
appropriate OUTPUT VOLTAGE MONITOR LED's (Figure 104, Item 2) to illuminate.

NOTE: Ensure Test Switch is returned to normal position and all LED's are extinguished.

NOTE: If the unit TEST SWITCH or Remote Test Switch is depressed at a battery ambient
temperature of 55°C or greater, the unit internal heater will not turn ON to provide a
test load for the unit battery. This is not an ideal condition for battery state of charge
tests and should not be considered valid.

If the remote test is being performed, the Remote Battery-Voltage Level Lamp will momentarily
illuminate, provided the internally loaded battery voltage level is greater than 24Vdc.

NOTE: After testing, it is possible that the lamp will not illuminate again until the batteries
are recharged.

The INDIVIDUAL CELL MONITOR LED's (Figure 104, Item 1) function as GO/NO GO indicators
for each of the PS-835 lead acid cells. In case of low output capacity, these LED's will indicate
which cell or cells have failed. Any variation of brightness does not indicate cell condition.

3. Charging Procedures

A. Constant-Voltage Charging Method

Locally manufacture a power cable using 16AWG wire and the appropriate mating connector
See Figure 101, Item 7 & 8. Include a Diode (15 ADC (min), 50.0 PIV or greater, See Figure
101, Item 6) to prevent battery discharge in case of loss of power from the power source.

Using the external power supply (Figure 101, Item 1), apply 29.0 ± 0.5 Vdc (10A ma ximum
current limited) to J1 connector pins 11 (+) and 7 (-) and charge the unit for 16 hours. The
batteries should reach 80% capacity within 1 hour and full charge at 16 hours.

NOTE: Pin J1-11 is used instead of Pin J1-10 (during the Constant-Voltage Charging

Method) because applying power to J1-10 may activate the internal heater blanket.

Component Maintenance Manual
Model PS-835( ) // 501-1228-( )

B. Constant-Voltage Float (trickle) Charging Method

Use the locally manufactured power cable, including the appropriate mating connector and
diode, to connect a regulated/constant voltage source (28.5 ± 0.5 Vdc) to the PS-835. This
method will provide a long-term constant voltage to maintain the fully charged condition of the
PS-835 unit when not in service, without any other maintenance action.

NOTE: The trickle charge method can be maintained indefinitely without damage to the
charging batteries.

C. BC-815 Battery Charger Method

Install the BC-815 Battery Charger (Avionics Systems part number 501-1321-01) into the PS-
835 Emergency Power Supply and charge for no-less-than 23 hours. Charge time depends upon
the batteries state-of-charge. Charging for 23 hours will essentially guarantee a full charge.

The BC-815 provides a constant charging current of either 0.5 A or 0.25 A, selectable by a
switch on the face of the unit. The AMBER LED illuminates when power is applied by placing
the ON / OFF switch to ON. When the unit being charged is within 90.0% of full charge, the
GREEN LED illuminates indicating that the BC-815 has automatically switched to the trickle
charge mode. The charger/battery combination may be operated in this mode indefinitely
without damage to the BC-815 or to the batteries being charged.

D. BC-815 Battery Float (trickle) Charging Method

Install the BC-815 Battery Charger (Avionics Systems part number 501-1321-01) into the PS-
835 Emergency Power Supply. This method will provide a long-term constant voltage to
maintain the fully charged condition of the PS-835 unit when not in service, without any other

maintenance action.
NOTE: The trickle charge method can be maintained indefinitely without damage to the
charging batteries.

4. Preflight Checks (Recommended)

NOTE: This check will indicate an accurate condition of the unit only upon the intial attempt.
Repeated checks will not reveal accuratly because stored energy is used each time the
TEST SWITCH is depressed.

A. Pre-Flight Check for Aircraft with Remote Test Capability

With no power applied to the PS-835 Emergency Power Supply, press and hold for 5 seconds
the cockpit remote TEST SWITCH in the TEST position. The remote test lamp must, at least,
momentarily illuminate to indicate that the Power Supply is adequately charged. If no
illumination of the remote test lamp is apparent for the period that switch is held, the
Emergency Power Supply is incapable of providing power in an emergency.

B. Pre-Flight Check for Aircraft with NO Remote Test Capability

Access the Emergency Power Supply. Perform the check as listed in paragraph 5, Periodic
Checks.

5. Periodic Checks (Required 3 to 6 Months)

With no power applied to the PS-835 Emergency Power Supply, press TEST SWITCH (Figure 104,
Item 4) (or remote cockpit test switch) into TEST position for 5 seconds. The PS-835 indicates that it
is adequately charged when the VOLTAGE LEVEL 24Vdc LED (Figure 104, Item 2) (or remote test
indicator), at least, illuminates momentarily, AND the 20Vdc LED (Figure 104, Item 6) remains lit
during the test.

NOTE: Ensure Test Switch is returned to normal position and all LED's are extinguished.

If the VOLTAGE LEVEL 24Vdc LED does not, at least, momentarily illuminate while the 20Vdc
LED is illuminated, the Emergency Power Supply is incapable of providing power in an emergency.
Proceed to Fault Isolation Test, Step 7.

Check

1. General

This section provides avionics service personnel necessary guidance for inspections to the PS-835
Emergency Power Supply, which will assist in identifying shortcomings that may result in failure of
the unit operate.

2. On Aircraft Checks

A. Pull aircraft circuit breaker to remove power from PS-835 Emergency Power Supply.

B. Place TEST SWITCH (cockpit remote test switch for aircraft so equipped) into the TEST
position.

C. View Output Voltage Monitor LED's (cockpit remote test lamp for aircraft so equipped).

Output Voltage Monitor LED for 24VDC (or the cockpit remote test lamp) must illuminate
momentarily to indicate that the unit is adequately charged.

D. Release the TEST SWITCH and reset the aircraft circuit breaker.

NOTE: Ensure Test Switch is returned to normal position and all LED's are extinguished.

3. Checks After Repair and During Re-assembly

A. Perform disassembly according to the Disassembly section.

While in progress of disassembly, check:

1) Transistors, high-wattage resistors and surrounding areas for overheating.

2) For burned, broken, or shorted parts, components, and hardware.

3) Connector and terminal posts for bent, broken, or damaged pins, screws (heads and
threads), and casings for breakage and cracking.

4) Inspect all wiring for being excessively tight or loose, chafing, fraying, burned insulation,
and breakage. Wiring insulated with Teflon should be checked closely for insulation cold-
flowing and bare conductors. This phenomenon would be most evident at wire bends and
places where wire bundles are secured or tied. Being able to see actual wire through the
insulation does not necessarily mean the wire needs replacement. An insulation breakdown
test will determine if replacement is warranted.

5) Inspect all soldered connections, even those not unsoldered during disassembly, for broken
or pitted solder, cold joints, and solder quality.
Deficiencies found during inspection should be corrected when repairing a defective unit, or
performed as a preventive maintenance measure to preclude future problems. Repair defects in
accordance with the Repair section of this manual.

7. Interconnect Diagrams

A. Fuse and Circuit Breakers

The PS-835 Emergency Power Supply contains internal fuses and circuit breakers to protect the
supply against shorting conditions. Additional fuses or breakers may be required to protect
aircraft wiring, as determined by the specific loads. The required current-rating of any
additional current protection is dependent on the load applied to the units connector J1 Pin 11.
All circuits connecting to the output Pin 11 should use current/load appropriate sized wire.
Refer to the Typical Installation Interconnect Diagrams (Figures 802 or 803) for additional
information. See Specification table, Figure 4 for PS-835 current output information.

B. Retrofits

The older PS-823 Emergency Power Supply can be replaced by the PS-835. The PS-823, when
providing 115 Vac output, can be replaced with the PS-835/SI-100 combination to provide
115Vac output, also.

3. Connector Alignment Gage**

The Connector Alignment Gage, listed above, was added as the result of Service Bulletin SB501-
1228-1A. The service issue concerned the position of J2Connector for correct and successful pin
contact to the connector of the Static Inverter SI-100, when used in conjunction with the PS-835
Emergency Power Supply.

The J2 Connector, see Figure 801 and 802, position is irrelevant for aircraft applications that do not
include the use of the SI-100. Connector position can also be achieved using a ruler with decimal
inch graduations.

4. Detailed Parts List

The Detailed Parts List consists of illustrations and columnar parts listing of component parts for this
equipment. All assemblies, subassemblies, and parts that can be disassembled, repaired or replaced,
and reassembled are included. The Detailed Parts List only lists and illustrates those parts attached
by means other than welding or riveting, or other generally accepted means of permanent
attachment.

Each illustration is assigned a figure number commencing with IPL Figure 1 and progressing
sequentially from there. Alpha variants A thru Z will be assigned to figure numbers when necessary
to add additional figures to show modification or configuration changes, or differences between
units.

A. Figure Number Column

This column reflects the assigned Figure number of an illustration.

B. Item Number Column

This column reflects the assigned Item number of an illustration. Items listed but not shown on
the illustration are identified with a dash (-) to the left of the item number. Alpha variants A
thru Z are assigned to existing item numbers when necessary to add items, to show
configuration changes, or multiple sources for component parts.

C. Part Number Column

Part numbers listed are MIL Standard or Goodrich Avionics Systems, Inc. part numbers
Goodrich Avionics Systems part numbers consist of a three digit family group, four digit family
number, and a two digit variant number.

D. Nomenclature Column

This column contains key and modifying words depicted within Goodrich Avionics Systems,
Inc. drawing title description blocks, modification numbers and service bulletin references, part
reference designators “if any”, military standards, plus pertinent information relative to that part
such as “Matched Parts” or Next Higher Assembly (NHA). Electrostatic discharge sensitive
components are identified with bold letters (ESDS).

E. Units Per Assembly Column

Quantities specified in this column are per item number. The letters AR appearing in this
column denote selection of parts on an As Required basis. Letters REF refer to an assembly
completely assembled on a previous illustration.

F. Effectivity Code Column

This column is used to establish parts compatibility with units or subassemblies that are
essentially the same as far as color, marking methods, etc. When no code is listed, parts are
usable on all applicable models or assemblies. At the end of each Figure Listing is a Effectivity
Code to Part Number cross reference table to assist in unit identification.

G. How To Use The Detailed Parts List

For the following examples, refer to the appropriate lists and indexes within this manual.

1) Finding the Part Number when only the physical location of the part is known:

a. Use the List of Illustrations to locate assembly page number in which the part is used.

b. Find the illustration and locate the part on the next higher assembly (e.g., if a part is
located on a PC board, the PC board is the next higher assembly). Note the part
number.

c. Refer to the Detailed Parts List for the illustration figure number.

d. Locate the part item number and the part number in the Part Number column.

2) Finding the Part Number when only the Part Reference Designator is known:

a. Find the Part Reference designation number in the Part Reference Designator Index.

b. Refer to the figure and item number column in the Detailed Parts List for part number.

3) Finding an Illustration for a known Part Number:

a. Locate the known part number in the Numerical Index. Note the figure and item

number.
b. Turn to the Detailed Parts List and locate the figure and index number for a
description of the part.

c. Turn to the illustration and locate the physical position of that part on the assembly.
