AIR SUPPLY CONTROL TEST UNIT-SCHEMATIC

Location

An Air Supply Control Test Unit (ASCTU) consists of four control


cards, two monitor cards, one input/output card, and one power
supply and isolation valve indication card. It is located in the main
equipment center on the E2-4 rack. The ASCTU provides control
and indication for the engine air supply components and operational
monitoring. The ASCTU contains Built In Test (BIT) capabilities for
all air supply system components and provides status information to
EICAS and the central maintenance computer.

Control Indication

The ASCTU receives inputs from M7328 bleed air control moduleon
P5, processes the information, and outputs the appropriate
commands to the engine mounted air supply components. The
ASCTU monitors the individual switches and sensors on the engine
air supply components and distribution system. This information is
processed and transmitted to the flight deck annunciators, EFIS/
EICAS interface units and to the central maintenance computer.
The data is transmitted by ARINC 429 data buses.

The two monitor/bits cards provide channel A and channel B


redundancy for fault indication and reporting.

PNEUMATIC MANIFOLD ISOLATION VALVES

The isolation valves provide a means for controlling the air flow in
the pneumatic manifold. Three isolation valves are in the pneumatic
system. Two isolation valves are located in the air conditioning bay
and the APU isolation valve is located in the aft left wheel well. The
APU isolation valve will operate only when the APU is operating.
The isolation valve is a motor driven 7 inch diameter butterfly type
valve that operates on 115 volts ac power. If a malfunction occurs in
either the left or right pneumatic system, the system can be isolated
by selecting the appropriate isolation valve to off.

Located at the junction of the APU and crossover manifolds is the


APU check valve.

A position indicator, on the valve, can be used for visual inspection


of valve position. The valve can be operated manually by the 5/32
hex head drive.

The manifold isolation valves and the APU isolation valve are
identical.

PNEUMATIC GROUND CONNECTORS

Air supply to the pneumatic system from ground carts is through two
ground connectors.

The two connectors, with check valves, are located in the left air
conditioning bay connected to the crossover manifold. The ground
connectors can be accessed through a hinged panel located aft of
the left air conditioning bay.

The check valve, installed inside the connector housing, prevents


loss of pressurized air through the connector during operation of the
airplane pneumatic system. Removal and replacement of the
connector requires that, the two gaskets are not damaged or
misaligned.

HIGH PRESSURE SHUTOFF VALVE CONTROLLER

The high pressure shutoff valve controller opens and closes the high
pressure shutoff valve (HPSOV) in response to pneumatic servo
pressure. The servo pressure is controlled by the open/close
latching, solenoid-operated valve. The high pressure shutoff valve
controller provides intermediate pressure-high pressure switching by
controlling the HPSOV position. The HPSOV controller senses high
stage pressure and altitude pressure. The switchover pressure is
105 psig. Below 105 psig the pneumatic system operates on high
stage pressure (14th stage) and above 105 psig on intermediate
pressure (8th stage). An aneroid changes the switchover pressure
linearly from 105 psig at 27,000 feet to 71 psig at 45,000 feet.

The HPSOV controller has four BITE pressure switches. Two of the
switches, PL and PH, are monitored by the air supply control test
unit (ASCTU) BITE logic to verify proper operation of the HPSOV
controller.

HIGH PRESSURE SHUTOFF VALVE

The high pressure shutoff valve (HPSOV) is a pneumatically


operated non-modulating valve. The air supply for valve operation is
from the HPSOV controller. When air pressure is not available the
valve closes.

The HPSOV has two plunger type valve position switches. Both
switches provide BITE information. The close switch provides
information to the air supply control test unit (ASCTU) for valve
position indication.

A valve position indicator and a locking pin are on the valve for
manually deactivating the valve in the closed position.

The open solenoid is energized momentarily by pushing the


ENGINE BLEED switchlight on P5 to the ON position or operation of
the thrust reverser. This provides a signal to the pulse generator to
energize the open solenoid for 0.5 seconds.

The close solenoid is energized momentarily by pushing the


ENGINE BLEED switchlight on P5 to the off position, operation of
the engine fire switch on P5 or actuation of the 470°F (243°C)
overheat switch downstream of the precooler. This provides a signal
to the pulse generator to energize the close solenoid for 0.5
seconds.

During an overheat condition, a latching circuit is energized


preventing the operation of the open solenoid by the ENGINE
BLEED switchlight or deployment of reverser. The latch is reset by
cycling the ENGINE BLEED switchlight after the overheat condition
is no longer present.

A 5 second time delay is provided for the overheat switch to prevent


transient operation of the close solenoid.

HIGH PRESSURE SHUTOFF VALVE MONITORING AND


INDICATION CIRCUIT

The high pressure shutoff valve (HPSOV) position is monitored


through the close limit switch. Failure of the HPSOV to close within
5 seconds results in illumination of SYS FAULT light. The light also
illuminates if the PH pressure switch senses 127 psig and the valve
does not close within 5 seconds or with an overheat conditions of
470°F (243°C). Information from the ASCTU is provided to EICAS
through the EFIS/EICAS interface units.

The four BITE pressure switches located in the HPSOV controller


and BITE logic located in the ASCTU continuously monitor HPSOV
and HPSOV controller operation.

The HPSOV controller has four BITE pressure switches. Two of the
switches, PL and PH, are monitored by the air supply control test
unit (ASTCU) BITE logic to verify proper operation of the HPSOV
controller.

HIGH PRESSURE SHUTOFF VALVE AND PRESSURE


REGULATOR VALVE MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

The high pressure shutoff valve (HPSOV) and the pressure regulator
valve (PRV) are identical and interchangeable. The controllers
determine whether the valve operates as a regulator or a shutoff
valve. The deactivation procedures for each valve is the same.

The valves can be deactivated to the locked closed position only.


The left thrust reverser must be opened to gain access to either
valve. The valves can be deactivated (locked closed) by removing
the lock pin from the stowed position in the actuator. If not already
closed, rotate the manual override hex nut until the position
indication aligns with the CLOSED mark on the valve. Install the
locking pin through the locking crank and into the valve.

To activate, reverse the above procedures. It is very important to


insure the locking pin is properly reinstalled in the stowed position. If
it is not installed completely, the valve will not operate correctly
because the actuator pressure will be vented to ambient around the
pin.

PRESSURE REGULATOR VALVE AND CONTROLLER

The pressure regulator valve (PRV) is located upstream of the


precooler and downstream of the intermediate/high pressure
junction on the top of the engine. The PRV controller is remotely
mounted, with the HPSOV controller, on the upper left side of the
engine. The controller is mounted in this position to avoid harmful
temperatures and vibration from the high stage compressors. Both
the PRV and PRV controller can be accessed by opening the left fan
cowl and thrust reverser.

PRESSURE REGULATOR VALVE CONTROLLER

The pressure regulator valve controller opens and closes the


pressure regulator valve (PRV) to regulate engine manifold
pressure. The servo pressure is controlled by the open/close
latching, solenoid-operated valve. The PRV protects the precooler
and other downstream components and ducting by regulating the
bleed air pressure in the engine manifold to 97 psig. The PRV
controller senses pressure at the precooler inlet and regulates the
valve position to limit engine manifold pressure. During engine start
the PRV controller is commanded closed to prevent reverse flow into
the intermediate and high stage compressors.

PRESSURE REGULATOR VALVE

The pressure regulator valve (PRV) is a pneumatically operated


modulating valve. The air supply for valve operation is from the PRV
controller. When air pressure is not available the valve closes.

The PRV has two plunger type valve position switches. Both
switches provide BITE information. The PRV close switch provides
information to the air supply control test unit (ASCTU) for valve
position indication.

A valve position indicator and locking pin are on the valve for
manually deactivating the valve in the closed position.

BLEED AIR PRECOOLER

The bleed air precooler is mounted on top of the engine and is part
of the engine bleed air temperature control system. The precooler
uses engine fan air as a heat sink to reduce bleed air temperature.
The precooler is a heat exchanger of the crossflow type. It receives
pressure regulated bleed air through the PRV and fan air through
the fan air modulating valve. The air flows at right angles to each
other and remains separated by the fin-plate arrangement. As fan
air passes through the precooler, it absorbs the heat of the engine
bleed air. The fan air is then exhausted out of the engine area
through a port on the left side of the engine. Access to the precooler
is by opening the core cowl panels.

OVERHEAT SWITCH AND TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT

The overheat switch opens when the temperature in the engine


manifold reaches 470°F (243°C). When the overheat switch opens,
an input from the switch is directed to the ASCTU overheat latch
circuit. A discrete output from the ASCTU commands the HPSOV
and PRV to close. An amber SYS FAULT light illuminates and
information from the ASCTU is provided to the EICAS through the
EFIS/EICAS interface units. There is a 5 second time delay in the
circuit for transient overheat conditions. After the temperature has
returned to normal the overheat circuit can be reset by cycling the
ENG BLEED switchlight.

The BITE logic continuously monitors manifold temperature through


the temperature sensor and the integrity of the overheat switch.
System faults are recorded on a CMC maintenance page. The

PRSOV provides six basic functions: replaceable only.

- ON/OFF control of the engine bleed air system


- Pressure regulation of engine bleed air
- Backup to the engine bleed air temperature control system
- Prevents reverse flow from the pneumatic distribution system into
the engine bleed air system
- Allows reverse flow during the engine start sequence
- Automatic closure of the PRSOV in the event of an upstream
manifold rupture. A shuttle valve located inside the PRSOV will
change position and allow downstream pressure to close the
valve

The PRSOV controls the bleed air pressure downstream of the valve
to 45 psi. The valve requires 10 psi to operate and is fully open at
30 psig. The PRSOV contains a temperature sensor that provides a
temperature limiting feature that starts closing the valve at a bleed
air temperature of 405°F (207°C). At 450°F (232°C), the valve is
fully closed and the amber OFF light illuminates. The temperature
limiting feature overrides the pressure regulating function and is not
operational during reverse flow operation.

PRESSURE REGULATOR AND SHUTOFF VALVE CONTROL


CIRCUIT

The pressure regulator and shutoff valve consists of an open and


close latching solenoids which are energized momentarily, and a
reverse flow solenoid. In the event of electrical failure, the latching
open-close solenoid remains in its last position.

The open solenoid is energized momentarily by pushing the


ENGINE BLEED switchlight on P5 to the ON position. This provides
a signal to the pulse generator to energize the open solenoid for 0.5
seconds.
The close solenoid is energized momentarily by pushing the
ENGINE BLEED switchlight on P5 to the off position or operation of
the engine fire switch on P5. This provides a signal to the pulse
generator to energize the close solenoid for 0.5 seconds.

Using the engine start switch on P5, the reverse flow solenoid is
energized. The pressure regulator and shutoff valve opens allowing
airflow from the pneumatic manifold to the engine starter.
Termination of the engine start sequence deenergizes the reverse
flow solenoid and the valve closes.
The reverse flow solenoid can be energized by the GND SVC switch
on the right side of the engine fancase. The pressure regulator and
shutoff valve opens allowing airflow from the pneumatic manifold to
the thrust reverser.

ENGINE BLEED AIR PRESSURE INDICATION AND MONITORING


SYSTEM

The overpressure switch provides system fault indication during an


overpressure condition. The bleed pressure sensor continuously
monitors the engine bleed air system and provides information to the
CMC.

The overpressure switch and bleed pressure sensor are located in


the wing leading edge. The pneumatic sense line for the
overpressure switch and the bleed pressure sensor connects to a
fitting at the precooler outlet.

Access to the overpressure switch and bleed pressure sensor is


through a panel located on the wing leading edge inboard of the
engine strut.

OVERPRESSURE SWITCH/BLEED PRESSURE SENSOR


MONITORING AND INDICATION CIRCUIT

Indication

During normal operation the engine manifold pressure is below 110


psig and relay R1211 is energized. The overpressure switch opens
when engine manifold pressure reaches 110 psig. The relay remains
energized for 60 seconds preventing overpressure indication during
the application of takeoff power without use of engine air to the air
conditioning system, or when APU bleed air is used for pack 2. After
a time delay of 60 seconds, if the overpressure condition still exists,
for 5 seconds or longer an input is sent to the ASCTU logic circuits.
A SYS FAULT light illuminates and information from the ASCTU is
provided to EICAS through the EFIS/EICAS interface units.

Monitoring

The BITE module continuously monitors the bleed pressure sensor


for high or low engine manifold pressure and monitors the integrity of
the overpressure switch.

BLEED AIR FLOW INDICATION

The bleed air flow indication system measures the system mass air
flow and processes the signal for display on EICAS.
The system uses four sensors and a signal conditioner.

The sensors are located in the wing pneumatic ducts. The channel
1 and channel 4 sensors (outboard sensors) are positioned
upstream of engines 2 and 3 pneumatic duct inlets. The outboard
sensors are accessible with the leading edge flaps extended.

The channel 2 and channel 3 sensors (inboard sensors) are


positioned upstream of the wing to fuselage transition duct (90°
bend). The inboard sensors are accessible through inboard leading
edge access panels.

The bleed air flow signal conditioner is located in the MEC.

conditioner, the air supply control and test unit (ASCTU), and the resolution to indicate the inboard mass flow.
EIU’s for display. The bleed air flow indicating system can be checked on the ground
by INPUT MONITORING.
System Operation

The bleed air flow sensor has two flow sensor elements. One
element measures the ambient duct temperature. The secnd
element is heated to a set temperature above the ambient duct air
temperature with the power supplied by the bleed air flow signal
conditioner. The air mass flow rate is proportional to the rate at
which heat is being removed by the cooler air stream which flows
past the self-heated element of the flow sensor.

The bleed air flow signal conditioner contains four channels of


excitation, bridges and amplifier circuitry that are necessary to
condition the signals from the remotely installed flow sensors. The
signal conditoner senses the voltage that is necessary to keep a set
temperature difference between a self-heated sensor and an
ambient sensor. It conditions this voltage to supply a 0 to 5.0 volt
DC signal that is proportional to the air mass flow rate. The 0 to 5.0
volt DC signal is supplied by each of the four channels of bleed air
flow signal conditioner to the ASCTU.

PNEUMATIC SYSTEM SUMMARY

The pneumatic system consists of valves controlling the engine


bleeds, temperature and pressure regulation, distribution ducting
and system protection.

The air for the pneumatic system is obtained from the external
source, auxiliary power unit (APU) or the low pressure, high
pressure and fan stages of the engine. A series of valves and a
precooler control the pressure and temperature of the air supplied by
the engine, prior to entering the pneumatic manifold. Protection is
provided against excessive air temperature and pressure in the
engine pneumatic manifold. Located in the pneumatic manifold are
isolation valves and pressure transmitters.

WING ANTI-ICING

The wing anti-icing system prevents formation of ice on the wing


leading edges. The bleed air from the pneumatic manifold is used for
anti-icing.

The system consists of a valve and a spray duct located in each


wing leading edge. Two ice detector probes are located on the
forward fuselage and the controls and indications are located in the
flight deck.

WING ANTI-ICING SYSTEM

The pneumatic system supplies air for the wing anti-icing system.
The air supply is connected to the wing leading edges through two
valves in the leading edge flap cavities near the outboard engines.
The valve is connected to a Y-type coupling, which is connected to
two elbows. Each elbow is connected to an anti-icing duct (made
from titanium) and located inboard and outboard inside the leading
edge. Thermal expansion of the ducts is provided for by use of teflon
impregnated cushioned clamps which permit the duct to slide in a
direction opposite the elbow during expansion and towards the
elbow during contraction. The forward surface of the duct has spray
holes through which air is discharged onto the interior of the wing
leading edge. The air is exhausted overboard through slots under
the leading edge.

NACELLE ANTI-ICING VALVE

The nacelle anti-icing valve allows air from the engine bleed duct to
be supplied to the spray duct in the nacelle leading edge.

The valve is a butterfly type, electrically controlled and pneumatically


operated and consists of a solenoid valve, actuator, filter, pilot
assembly, valve body, position indicator and a lockout knob. When
open, the valve modulates air supply to 24 psig and an approximate
flow rate of 90 pounds/minute. A position indicator can be used for
visual inspection of the valve position and for manual valve
operation.

The valve is accessible through the access panel on the left side of
the strut.The filter is shop replaceable only.

The valve can be manually operated and locked in either full open or
closed positions. Before the valve can be locked in position, the
valve must be in the desired position. The position indicator is hex
shaped to allow a 7/16 inch wrench to manually move the valve disk
to the desired position. The lockout knob has three detented
positions: NORMAL, LOCKED OPEN, and LOCKED CLOSED. The
knob is positioned in a detent by pulling and rotating.

top of the nacelle behind the spray duct. When air is leaking from the
duct, the switch will sense increasing air temperature in the nacelle.
At 250°F (121°C), the switch closes the nacelle anti-icing valve.

The pressure switch is located in the strut forward of the nacelle


anti-icing valve. When air pressure in the duct exceeds 30 psig, the
switch closes and sends a message to EICAS.

WINDSHIELD WIPER PARKING MECHANISM

The parking mechanism consists of a spring loaded plunger


operated by a lever. The plunger and lever are mounted on the
wiper supporting arm.

When the wipers are turned on, friction of the wiper blade on the
windshield moves the blade from its parked position parallel to the
wiper arm to the wiping position at 20° to the arm. As the wiping
position is reached, a spring-loaded unlatch mechanism on the arm
locks to fix the blade in the wiping position.

When the switch is placed in the OFF position, the blade moves
towards the parked position. The blade moves down from the
window onto the rub strip. The lever strikes an actuating pin causing
the plunger to disengage from the blade attachment. A stop rotates
the blade attachment to the parked position. The blade restrainer,
attached to the supporting arm, prevents lifting of the blade in flight
when the wipers are not used.

When the wiper blade is in the parked position, it should be free to


move 1/8 to 1/4 inch from the stop by application of finger pressure.

WINDSHIELD WIPER CIRCUIT

The power supply for the windshield motor is 28 volts dc. Placing the
windshield wiper switch to the LO position enables the motor to
operate at low speed of 160 strokes per minute. The HI position
enables the motor to operate at high speed of 250 strokes per
minute.

When the OFF position is selected, power is still supplied to the


motor through the internal park switch and the motor reverses its
direction. When the motor reaches its park position, the park switch
opens, removing motor power and releasing the brake solenoid
which stops the motor.

The motor circuit contains a 300°F (149°C) thermal switch for


overheat and overload protection. The switch resets automatically.

The wipers can operate during towing with relay R8353 energized
and ground handling bus supplying operating power to wipers.

the three lower holes are for the rain repellent fluid and the fourth
hole is for the windshield washer fluid. The two supply lines are
concentric within the nozzle and are separated by O-rings. A
seepage control valve is installed at the base of the nozzle fitting.
The valve prevents fluid in the supply line from seeping through the
spray hole and smearing the windows in flight.

The spray from the nozzle can be altered using 3 adjustment screws
under the nozzle fairing.

NOTE: Nozzle adjustment is determined by washer spray pattern.

OXYGEN SYSTEMS
35.00.0501 -002

Oxygen systems provide the occupants of the airplane with


supplemental oxygen when required. Use of oxygen is necessary if
cabin pressurization is lost during high-altitude flight. Some
passengers may require oxygen during normal pressurized flight for
medical reasons.

Three gaseous oxygen systems are installed in the airplane. A


diluter-demand system provides oxygen to each flight deck station.
A continuous flow system serves the passenger cabins, crew rest
area, lavatories and attendant stations. Portable oxygen equipment
is stowed throughout the passenger cabin for medical and
walk-around use.

Locations of major system components are:

- Mask/regulator assemblies
- flight deck
- Crew and passenger oxygen cylinders
- forward cargo compartment
- Passenger oxygen modules
- overhead, throughout main and upper deck passenger cabins
- Attendant oxygen modules
- attendant station and crew rest area
- Lavatory oxygen module
- lavatories
- Portable oxygen equipment throughout main and upper deck
passenger cabins

CREW OXYGEN SYSTEM

The crew oxygen system satisfies the supplemental oxygen


requirements of the pilots and observers on the flight deck. A high
pressure oxygen cylinder supplies oxygen to a console-mounted
oxygen mask stowage box at each flight crew station.

The oxygen cylinder and associated components are in the right


sidewall of the forward cargo compartment. An overboard discharge
port and manifold provide over-pressure safety relief for the oxygen
cylinder.

A medium pressure line connects the oxygen cylinder assembly to a


pressure regulator on the flight deck. A low pressure distribution
manifold connects the pressure regulator to the mask stowage
boxes.

When oxygen pressure is below dispatch requirements the system is


serviced by replacing the oxygen cylinder.

CREW OXYGEN CYLINDER

The crew oxygen cylinder and associated components are located


behind an access door inside the forward cargo compartment
immediately aft of the cargo door.

The cylinder is equipped with a coupling assembly consisting of a


shutoff valve, direct reading pressure gauge, frangible disk, pressure
transducer, pressure reducer and a thermal compensator. Cylinder
capacity is 114 cubic feet of oxygen at 1850 psig at 70° F. The
cylinder is hydrostatically tested at regular intervals and stamped
with the test date. The shutoff valve is manually operated, turning
the knob clockwise closes the valve. The pressure gauge indicates
cylinder pressure in psi regardless of shutoff valve position.

System servicing is by replacement of the depleted cylinder. Rollers


support the cylinder and aid during removal and installation. A clamp
secures the cylinder in position. Personnel are cautioned to follow
maintenance manual procedures for opening, closing and
safety-wiring of the cylinder shutoff valve. Otherwise, equipment
damage or system malfunction is likely.

WARNING: VALVES MUST BE OPENED SLOWLY OR


EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURES MAY RESULT.

THERMAL COMPENSATOR ASSEMBLY

General

The thermal compensator is an integral part of the cylinder coupling


assembly. It consists of a brush-like wire element tightly fitted inside
the coupling. The compensator prevents excessive temperatures in
the high pressure portion of the system. Heat is absorbed by the
element and dissipated to the coupling.

Maintenance Practices

Appropriate handling procedures and safety precautions must be


observed during maintenance to prevent contamination or damage
to the thermal compensator. Contamination is possible when
plumbing has been disconnected, not properly capped and left
unattended for any appreciable length of time. Such an occurrence
requires removal, inspection and cleaning or replacement of the
thermal compensator/coupling assembly.

PRESSURE REDUCER

The pressure reducer is attached to the cylinder coupling and


reduces the pressure of oxygen being supplied to the flight deck.
Inlet pressure of 600 to 1850 psig is reduced to 600 to 680 psig.
With cylinder pressure below 600 psig, the reducer outlet pressure is
approximately equal to cylinder pressure.

OVERBOARD DISCHARGE PORT INDICATOR

One discharge port and indicator serves the crew and passenger
oxygen systems. The port is in the fuselage skin aft of the forward
cargo door. A green plastic indicator disc seals the port to prevent
entry of dirt and moisture. A snap ring retains the disc. If oxygen
pressure becomes excessive and ruptures the frangible disc at the
cylinder, the indicator disc will be blown out of the fuselage port,
providing visual evidence of the overboard discharge.

PRESSURE REGULATOR

The pressure regulator further reduces oxygen pressure from the


pressure reducer to the value required by the mask regulators. Inlet
pressure of 600 to 680 psi is reduced to 60 to 75 psi. A relief valve
set to approximately 100 psi protects the components downstream
of the regulator.

Access to the pressure regulator is through a panel in the outboard


wall of the flight deck coat closet. It is attached with two fasteners to
the structure and threaded fittings connect the inlet and outlet lines.

MASK STOWAGE BOX

Oxygen masks are stowed in boxes within easy reach of the flight
crew station. The stowage box includes a door-operated shutoff
valve, a sliding RESET-TEST lever and an oxygen flow indicator
(blinker).

When the mask is withdrawn from the stowage box, opening the
doors actuates the shutoff valve and supplies oxygen to the mask.
Subsequent closing of the stowage box doors displays an OXY-ON
flag. The flag is a reminder that the shutoff valve will remain open
until reset with the RESET-TEST lever. An alternate function of the
RESET-TEST lever allows in-place preflight checkout of the stowage
box and mask assembly without removing the mask from the box.

The flow indicator displays a yellow cross when oxygen flow exists.
The cross increases in size as flow increases. During no-flow
condition the indicator is black.

The stowage box is mounted in the console and secured with


quick-release fasteners.

Operation

When the mask/regulator is removed from the box, the box doors
open, thus opening the shutoff valve in the box. With the harness
inflation control depressed, the harness inflates. Releasing the
inflation control deflates the harness and holds the mask around the
head.

Mask Stowage

The emergency knob is also marked PRESS TO TEST. When


pressed together with the RESET-TEST lever, it allows oxygen to
flow into the mask. Flow is checked on the flow indicator. The mask
may be tested without removing it from the stowage box.

Restowing the mask involves coiling the supply line in the stowage
box, correctly positioning the mask and folded harness inside the
box and then closing the doors. The pin on the left door engages the
hole in the mask regulator. Engagement of the pin is prevented by
the OXY-ON flag. The shutoff valve in the stowage box must be
turned off by operating the RESET-TEST control with the left door
closed. When the shutoff valve is properly reset, the OXY-ON flag
will disappear. After restowing the mask, an in-situ check is
performed to verify proper functioning.

CREW OXYGEN SYSTEM OPERATION

General

The crew oxygen is stored in a high pressure cylinder. The cylinder


is equipped with a pressure guage, shutoff valve and frangible disc.
The frangible disc provides over-pressure relief through an
overboard discharge port and manifold common to the passenger
system. A coupling with an integral thermal compensator connects
the cylinder to a pressure transducer and pressure reducer.

Operation

With the cylinder valve open, oxygen flows through a thermal


compensator to a pressure transducer and pressure reducer. The
thermal compensator absorbs excessive heat from the oxygen (the
result of compression when the cylinder valve is opened) to reduce
the fire hazard associated with servicing. The pressure transducer
provides an input to EICAS for crew oxygen cylinder pressure
indication. The pressure reducer decreases the pressure of oxygen
being supplied to the flight deck. From the pressure reducer,
medium pressure oxygen flows to a pressure regulator where the
pressure is further reduced. A manifold distributes low pressure
oxygen to the mask stowage boxes. Withdrawing the mask from the
stowage box initiates the flow of oxygen.

OXYGEN SYSTEM RESET SOLENOID

General

The reset solenoid permits resetting the flow control units from a
switch on the flight deck. The solenoid is mounted on a bracket
immediately below the flow control units. When the solenoid is
energized, the switch bar operates the reset levers. The levers
simultaneously depress the reset plungers on the three flow control
units. Deenergizing the solenoid returns the linkage to its original
position.

Maintenance Practices

Solenoid installation requires adjustment of the clevis and lock-nut.


The clevis is positioned to obtain the required clearance between
each control unit reset lever and plunger.

CAUTION: DO NOT ADJUST THE DOUBLE LOCKNUT LOCATED


AGAINST THE SOLENOID NUT.

LOW PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION MANIFOLD

Low pressure oxygen from the flow control units is supplied to five
main feeder manifolds; one on each side of the fuselage, one down
the center of the fuselage and two in the upper deck passenger
compartment. Short distribution lines off the main feeder manifolds
supply oxygen to the lavatories. Flexible tubing attached to
connections along each manifold delivers oxygen to each oxygen
mask module.

A normally-open automatic vent valve relieves any oxygen leakage


from the manifold. Bleed relief valves located at various places in the
manifold allow trapped air to escape during initial system activation.

BLEED RELIEF VALVE


35.21.0507 -001

General

Two bleed relief valves one located in the oxygen distribution


manifold at rear of the main passenger cabin. Three valves are
located on the upper deck.

Operation

Bleed relief valves in the low pressure distribution manifold are


opened by a pressure surge during initial activation of the oxygen
system. Air is purged from the manifold to allow immediate delivery
of oxygen to the oxygen mask modules. The valves open at
approximately 27 psi and close when pressure decreases to
approximately 24 psi.

Maintenance Practices

Access to the valves is by removing the ceiling panels. The valves


may be tested in place by pressurizing the low pressure distribution
manifold to 35 psig and listening for the escape of air at the bleed
valves. With pressure reduced to 15 psig, no airflow should be
detected. The test is performed using a regulated air pressure
source and a pressure gauge connected to the test adapters near
the flow control units.

AUTOMATIC VENT VALVE

General

The automatic vent valve is located above the aft right entry door.
Access is by lowering the aft attendants service unit or removing the
adjacent ceiling panel.

Operation

A normally open automatic vent valve prevents gradual pressure


buildup in the low pressure distribution manifold. Otherwise, leakage
through the flow control units could pressurize the manifold
sufficiently to cause unscheduled deployment of the oxygen masks.
On activation of the oxygen system, the vent valve closes when
manifold pressure exceeds 1 psi.

PASSENGER OXYGEN SYSTEM CONTROL CIRCUIT

With the control switch in NORM position, the flow control unit
actuating solenoids are de-energized and no oxygen flows through
the units.

Placing the switch to ON then returning it to NORM will momentarily


energize the electropneumatic flow control unit solenoids and initiate
the flow of oxygen. Pressure in the distribution manifold closes the
pressure switch in flow control unit M101. The ground signal applied
to the EIUs results in a PASS OXYGEN ON indication on EICAS and
decompression relay R36 energizes. The entertainment service
controller (ESC) causes fluorescent compartment lights to illuminate
and the MAWEA causes NO SMOKING and FASTEN SEATBELT
signs to illuminate. A chime is sounded over the passenger address
system.

When oxygen is no longer required, momentarily placing the control


switch to RESET energizes the reset relay, R721. A holding circuit is
established through the normally closed contacts of the position
switch in M542, the oxygen reset solenoid. A separate circuit
energizes the solenoid coil. A mechanical linkage coupled to the
reset solenoid deactivates the flow control units, causing the flow of
oxygen to stop. Movement of the solenoid plunger opens the
position switch, deenergizing the holding circuit.

the cylinder to a value suitable for use. The outlet fittings include a
flow metering device and a check valve. The check valve opens to
allow oxygen flow to the mask when the mask plug-in adapter is
inserted. A charging valve is provided for refilling the cylinder.
Over-pressure protection is provided by a frangible safety plug.

The cylinder assembly is leak-tested using an approved oxygen


system leak detection solution. If leakage cannot be corrected by
tightening loose fittings, the unit must be returned to a qualified
overhaul facility.

CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED ALLOWABLE TORQUE VALUES


WHEN TIGHTENING FITTINGS.

Proper functioning of the unit is determined by a flow test. A


flowmeter is connected to each mask outlet and the flow rate is
measured. If the flow rate is not within limits or the unit otherwise
fails to operate properly, it must be returned to a qualified overhaul
facility. Field adjustment is not permitted.

OXYGEN SYSTEMS SUMMARY

Summary

The airplane is equipped with three independent oxygen systems.


The crew oxygen system supplies the flight deck. The passenger
oxygen system serves the main and upper deck passenger cabins
and crew rest area. Portable oxygen equipment stowed throughout
the passenger cabin is available for medical and walk-around use.

Maintenance Practices

All three systems must be operational in order to dispatch the


airplane. Systems are serviced by replacing the cylinders. Cylinders
with an expired hydrostatic test date must be retested.

The oxygen systems are for emergency use for breathing purposes
and must be hygienically clean. Characteristics of compressed
oxygen create significant safety hazards.

WARNING: OXYGEN SYSTEM MAINTENANCE REQUIRES


SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON CLEANLINESS AND
QUALITY CRAFTSMANSHIP TO AVOID SERIOUS
INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND SEVERE DAMAGE TO
THE AIRPLANE. THE APPLICABLE MAINTENANCE
MANUAL PROCEDURES MUST BE FOLLOWED.
