INTRODUCTION
Purpose
The oxygen systems supply oxygen to the flight crew, cabin attendants, and
passengers.
Location
There are separate systems in the flight deck and passenger compartment.
There are also portable oxygen units.
OXYGEN - INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Purpose
The crew oxygen system gives oxygen to the flight crew for emergencies and
procedures that make its use necessary.
Component Locations
The crew oxygen masks and storage boxes are in the flight compartment.
The oxygen cylinder and the bleed valve are in the main equipment center
(MEC).
General Description
The cylinder in the MEC holds pressurized oxygen. A line connects the
cylinder to oxygen masks in the flight deck. A regulator at the cylinder and
diluter/demand valves at the masks decrease oxygen pressure to the correct
pressure for crew use.
The diluter/demand valve also mixes an applicable amount of flight deck air
with the oxygen. The valve uses flight deck air
pressure to make the decision on the quantity of oxygen to mix. The crew
can also set the valve for 100 percent oxygen .
You can get oxygen cylinder pressure information from the gage at the
cylinder and from the primary display system (PDS).
INTRODUCTION
CYLINDER
Purpose
The crew oxygen cylinder contains oxygen for the flight crew. The high pressure supply line lets oxygen flow into the thermal compensator
and cylinder. It also lets oxygen flow out of the cylinder to the mask supply

limits.
General Description
Training Information Point
The cylinder is made of composite materials. It holds 115 cubic feet (3150
liters) of oxygen at 1850 psi. It has a fitting at one end. There are two positions for the movable retainer ring on the cylinder support
These items are on the fitting: structure. One position lets the structure hold a composite cylinder. The other
lets it hold a steel oxygen cylinder.
➢ Direct reading pressure gage
➢ Shutoff valve
➢ Threaded connection (not shown) for B-nut on the thermal
compensator and overboard discharge line
➢ Thermal relief frangible disc (not shown).
A cylinder support structure holds the cylinder to the airplane. There are
retainer rings at both ends of the structure. The forward ring is set and cannot
move. The aft ring is movable. Fittings on the bottom of the aft ring let you
connect it to the structure and turn it up over the end of the cylinder.
One end of the retainer strap connects to the set ring. The other end of the
strap has a tee bolt. It goes through the top of the movable ring. A nut holds
the ring and bolt together.

Functional Description
General
➢ Pressure transducer
➢ Pressure regulator
➢ Thermal compensator.
Purpose
The pressure regulator reduces cylinder pressure to 70 psi in the supply line
to the masks.
The thermal compensator absorbs the heat that the pressurized oxygen
causes when it fills an unpressurized line.
Location
BLEED VALVE
Purpose
The bleed valve helps to make sure that the AIMS gets correct oxygen
cylinder pressure information.
Location
The valve is on the lower, left side of the MEC. It is below and forward of the
third step of the walkway.
Physical Description
The valve has a solenoid which supplies the force to open the valve.

only oxygen at any pressure altitude when you set the dilution control to 100
percent.
Normally, oxygen flows only when you breathe (on demand). The flow
indicator shows flow each time you breathe. If you set the emergency
demand control to emergency, oxygen will flow continuously (pressure
breathing). The flow indicator shows continuous flow. If the emergency
demand control is set to its usual position, the regulator gives automatic
pressure breathing when pressure altitude in the flight deck is above a preset
value. The percent of pressure breathing changes in relation to the pressure
altitude. As altitude increases, the percent of pressure breathing increases.
The vent valve (not shown) is part of the mask. The valve lets air and oxygen
flow from the mask into the goggles (not shown).
If you close the left door on the box, the oxygen on indicator shows.
You can turn oxygen off at the oxygen box with the shutoff valve. Close the
left door and push the reset/test lever sets the valve to the close position.

Purpose
The latch part of the door latch/actuator holds the oxygen door closed. The
actuator causes the latch to release the door.
Physical Description
➢ Electrical connector

➢ Lever arm with metal plate.
The housing contains a permanent magnet with an electric coil around it.
There is a spring-loaded latch pin on the oxygen door. It fits into a notch on
the bottom of the lever arm to hold the door closed.
The hinge on the mask box in the lavatory at door one left has a design that
is different from the other boxes. When the door is released and moves to
open, the hinge separates and lets the door fall. It hangs on lanyards. In this
position, the box door will not interfere with the operation of the lavatory bifold

There is a restraint tool you use when you test the door latch/actuator. The
tool goes through a slot in the PSU oxygen door.
Push up on the tool until it locks in position.
When you push the passenger oxygen switch on the P5 overhead panel, you
release the oxygen doors on the PSUs so they can open. The restraint tool
will let the door open sufficiently so you can see that the latch/actuator
operates correctly. The door cannot open sufficiently to let the masks drop.
The electric circuit that causes the latch/actuator to open will reset
automatically after two minutes.
After the test you must reset the latch/actuators and close the doors. The
open space between the door and the PSU is sufficient to let you touch the
latch/actuator. Push the lever arm of the latch/actuator against the force of its
spring so the lever goes against the housing. The magnet in the housing will
hold the lever arm in this position.
Close the door. To remove the restraint tool, push up on the tool, pull it to the
side, and then pull it down.

Functional Description
The mask drop signal energizes the smoke/oxygen warning relay through the
oxygen horn cancel switch. Power from the ground service bus latches the
relay. The energized relay gives a ground for the warning horn and the LEDs

When you push the horn cancel switch, it removes electrical power from the
relay. The warning horn stops and the switch LEDs go out.

(B777-200LR) ➢ Bulk Cargo Compartment
The oxygen stowage boxes are in the lavatories ceilings, in the ceiling area
above the attendants' seats and in the passenger service units (PSU) above
the passengers. The boxes store the oxygen mask and supply oxygen to the
mask when the system is on.
The masks supply oxygen to the passengers and cabin crew. One extra
mask is at these locations:
➢ Lavatories
➢ Outboard PSUs
➢ Center PSUs.
➢ Overhead Crew Rest PSUs.
➢ Overhead Flight Attendant Rest PSUs.
Oxygen for the passengers and attendants comes from oxygen cylinders. The ELMS sends a signal to the latches on the oxygen mask boxes to open
the box doors. This lets the passenger oxygen masks drop from the oxygen

cylinder pressure information to the voltage averaging unit. The voltage
averaging unit then averages the pressure in the cylinders. It sends the
average pressure information to the AIMS. This information shows on the
primary display system (PDS).
The flow control units open to let oxygen flow to the passenger service units
(PSUs). Both flow control units open at the same time. One flow control unit
has a surge capability. The flow control with surge sends a surge of oxygen
into the passenger cabin oxygen lines for approximately four seconds. The
surge of oxygen is more than the pressure limit of the bleed valves. This
surge lets the air in the passenger cabin oxygen lines go out of the lines.
After the initial surge the flow of oxygen matches the flow control unit without
surge. Both flow control units must supply sufficient oxygen flow to a full load
of passengers.
To reset the flow control units, move the passenger oxygen switch to the
RESET position. The passenger oxygen switch sends a signal to the ELMS,
which then sends another signal to the flow control units. This signal closes
both flow control units.
