value. The hot bleed air goes through an air-to-air heat exchanger
called the precooler. Fan discharge air modulated by the Fan Air Valve
(FAV), blows across the pre-cooler to maintain the temperature within
limits.
APU BLEED/EXTERNAL AIR
The left and right bleed systems are connected by a crossbleed duct.
A crossbleed valve enables their interconnection or isolation.
The APU can also be used for bleed air supply. This is usually done
on the ground for air conditioning and for engine start.
OPV NOTE: Note: for the A318, the high outlet temperature threshold is
decreased. If the precooler exchanger outlet temperature reaches

TRANSFERRED PRESSURE
A transducer, connected to the related BMC, reads the transferred pressure
downstream from the High Pressure Valve (HPV). This pressure is used
to monitor the PRV and the HPV.

APU bleed valve is open. The warning is the same if the engine bleed
valve is not automatically closed during engine start.

the HP VLV is open again.

X-BLEED SYSTEM
The cross bleed (X-BLEED) valve permits the isolation or the
interconnection of the left and right bleed air systems. The OPEN manual
control is used for:

NOTE: The wing loops A are connected to BMC 1 and wing loops B
to BMC 2. The crosstalk bus allows wing leak warnings to be
activated through an AND logic. The APU loop is connected
to BMC 1 only. The pylon loop is connected to the related
BMC.
