•The Pneumatic supplies Aircraft Systems which use pressurized air.


These systems are:
•- Air Conditioning,
•- Ventilation,
•- Pressurization,
•- De-icing.

•Bleed air protection are:


•- OVERHEAT, two Thermal Sensors are fitted on pneumatic ducts, downstream of the Bleed Air Shut-off Valve. -
OVERPRESSURE, a Pressure Sensor is installed upstream of the Bleed Air Shut-off Valve.
•- AIR LEAK, Sensing Elements are fitted beside the bleed air ducts.

•The LP and HP ducts join together to form a single duct.


•Pressure and Temperature Switches monitor the bleed air, which flows through the Bleed Air Shut-off Valve, which regulates air pressure.
•Check Valves are fitted on the LP Ports. They prevent reverse flow towards the LP compressor, when hp pressure is used (HP Bleed Valve opens at low
power Engine range). Both Bleed Air Shut-off Valves and HP Valve are controlled by Engine bleed pushbutton on Overhead Panel.
•A Check Valve is fitted on the LH duct. It prevents reverse flow to the left Engine bleed, during Hotel Mode.
•A Crossfeed Valve permits the interconnection of sub-systems bleed ducts to supply both Air Conditioning Packs. Opens only on ground. De-
icing System is supplied with bleed air from the HP Port.
•The surge margin and good steady state Engine power characteristics are provided from LP Port (through Handling Bleed Valve).
