Pressurization System
Cabin pressurization is controlled during all ground and flight phases by the Cabin Pressure Control
System (CPCS). The CPCS components includes the cabin pressurization panel, one pressure controller
for both AUTO and STANDBY mode operation (located in E&E bay), cabin altitude panel, forward outflow
valve, main outflow valve, and multiple pressurization relief valves. Cabin pressure is maintained by
positioning the main outflow valve to regulate the airflow from the air conditioning system.

PT. METRO BATAVIA


Directorate of Operational Main Menu Start Over Quit Previous Next Version 1.0 Slide 100 of 120
Pressurization System
Four separate pressurization modes may be selected: AUTO, STANDBY, MANUAL AC, and MANUAL DC.
The AUTO mode is the normal mode of operation. It utilizes the pressure controller and the AUTO
portion of the cabin pressurization panel. The STANDBY mode is the backup to the AUTO mode and is
semiautomatic. It utilizes the pressure controller and the STANDBY portion of the cabin pressurization
panel. If the AUTO mode and STANDBY mode are not available, the MANUAL mode is available and is
entirely pilot-controlled. The pilot has a choice between MAN AC control, or MAN DC control.

PT. METRO BATAVIA


Directorate of Operational Main Menu Start Over Quit Previous Next Version 1.0 Slide 101 of 120
Pressurization System
In the AUTO mode of operation, aircraft altitude is sensed directly from the static ports, and barometric
corrections come from the Captain’s altimeter. In the STANDBY mode of operation, aircraft altitude is
sensed electrically from an air data computer, and barometric corrections come from the First Officer’s
altimeter. Barometric corrections are necessary to ensure that cabin pressure and landing field pressure
are approximately the same at the time of landing.

PT. METRO BATAVIA


Directorate of Operational Main Menu Start Over Quit Previous Next Version 1.0 Slide 102 of 120
Pressurization System
Cabin air outflow is controlled by the main outflow valve, forward outflow valve, and the automatic flow
control valve. During flight with differential pressure greater than 2.5 psi, the automatic flow control
valve is closed and therefore the majority of air is exhausted out the main and forward outflow valves. A
small amount of air is also exhausted through toilet and galley vents, miscellaneous fixed vents, and by
seal leakage.
The main outflow valve can be actuated by either an AC or DC motor. The AC motor is utilized when the
pressurization system is in the AUTO or MAN AC modes. The DC motor is utilized when the
pressurization system is in the STANDBY or MAN DC modes. AC motor speed is faster than DC motor
speed. A majority of the air that is circulated throughout the cabin is drawn out the foot-level grills, then
around the aft cargo compartment for heating, and exhausted overboard out the main outflow valve.
The forward outflow valve assists in maintaining cabin pressure. However, the main purpose of the
forward outflow valve is to discharge warm air that has circulated around the forward cargo compartment
for heating. The valve is open when the main outflow valve is open more than 4.5 degrees, and is closed
when the main outflow valve is within 0.5 degrees being closed. In addition, the forward outflow valve is
closed anytime the recirculation fan is operating, regardless of the main outflow valve position. The
forward outflow valve does not modulate; it is either fully open or fully closed.
Two positive pressure relief valves are installed to prevent cabin-to-ambient differential pressure from
exceeding 8.65 psi. The valves operate independently of each other and any other aircraft system.
The negative pressure relief valve is installed to prevent a negative cabin-to-ambient differential pressure
which may result in damage to the aircraft. The valve opens when differential pressure equals –1.0.

Pressurization System
AUTO Mode Operation
When operating in the AUTO mode (pressurization mode selector in AUTO), two values must be set on
the cabin pressurization panel prior to takeoff: FLT ALT (cruse altitude) and LAND ALT (destination
airport elevation). While on the ground, ambient pressure is an automatic input into the pressure
controller.

Prior to takeoff with the FLT/GRD switch positioned to GRD, the main outflow valve drives to the full-open
position and the cabin remains unpressurized. When the FLT/GRD switch is positioned to FLT, the
controller signals the main outflow valve to modulate toward closed, slightly pressurizing the cabin to
approximately 200 feet below takeoff elevation. This pressurization while still on the ground ensures that
the transition to pressurized flight is more gradual. It also allows the pressurization system to better
respond to ground effect pressure changes during takeoff.

PT. METRO BATAVIA


Directorate of Operational Main Menu Start Over Quit Previous Next Version 1.0 Slide 104 of 120
Pressurization System
AUTO Mode Operation
Once airborne, the pressure controller maintains a proportional differential pressure between cabin and
aircraft altitude. By increasing cabin altitude at a rate which is proportional to the aircraft climb rate, the
change in cabin altitude is held to the minimum rate required.

Pressurization System
AUTO Mode Operation
The OFF SCHED DESCENT light illuminates if the aircraft begins to descend prior to reaching within
0.25 psi of the altitude set in the FLT ALT indicator. Because the altitude in the FLT ALT indicator was
never achieved, the pressure controller retains information regarding takeoff field elevation and will
therefore program the cabin to normally depressurize back to the airport of origin without any further
pilot inputs. This feature is especially beneficial if the aircraft is returning to the airport of origin.

PT. METRO BATAVIA


Directorate of Operational Main Menu Start Over Quit Previous Next Version 1.0 Slide 106 of 120
Pressurization System
AUTO Mode Operation
If the aircraft is returning to the airport of origin during an OFF SCHED DESCENT, it is recommended not
to change the altitude set in the FLT ALT indicator (e.g. setting current aircraft altitude). If the FLT ALT
indicator is set to current aircraft altitude, the automatic abort capability to the takeoff field elevation will
be lost. Landing field elevation of the origin airport would then have to be set in the FLT ALT indicator in
order to properly depressurize. Setting current altitude in the FLT ALT indicator does, however,
extinguish the OFF SCHED DESCENT light.
If the aircraft is not returning to the airport of origin during a OFF SCHED DESCENT, the LAND ALT
indicator must be set to the new landing field elevation.
Note: The automatic abort capability to the takeoff field elevation will also be lost if the FLT ALT selector
is depressed during the climb.

Pressurization System
AUTO Mode Operation
The cruise mode is activated when the aircraft climbs to within 0.25 psi of the altitude set in the FLT ALT
indicator. During cruise above 28,000 feet, the pressure controller maintains a maximum differential
pressure of 7.8 psi. During cruise below 28,000 feet, the pressure controller maintains a maximum
differential pressure of 7.45 psi. Deviations from flight altitude may cause the differential pressure to
vary as the pressure controller modulates the main outflow valve to maintain a constant cabin altitude.

AUTO Mode Operation
The descent mode is activated when the aircraft descends to 0.25 psi below the altitude set in the FLT
ALT indicator. During descent, the pressure controller maintains a proportional differential pressure
between cabin and aircraft altitude. The cabin will depressurize to an altitude which is slightly lower than
the altitude which is set in the LAND ALT indicator (landing field elevation). This slightly pressurized
landing ensures that rapid changes in altitude during approach will result in minimum cabin pressure
changes.

The AUTO FAIL light will illuminate for any one of the following three conditions:
• Loss of AC power for more than 15 seconds
• Excessive rate of cabin pressure change (+/- 1800 feet/min.)
• Cabin altitude in excess of 13,875 feet

When the AUTO FAIL light illuminates, the pressure controller automatically switches to the STANDBY
mode and the STANDBY light illuminates. Positioning the pressurization mode selector to STBY will
extinguish the AUTO FAIL light.

STANDBY Mode Operation
To operate in the STANDBY mode, simply position the pressurization mode selector to STBY. This action
signals the pressure controller to operate in the STANDBY mode and also illuminates the STANDBY light.

Prior to takeoff with the FLT/GRD switch positioned to GRD, the main outflow valve drives to the full-open
position and the cabin remains unpressurized. When the FLT/GRD switch is positioned to FLT, the
controller signals the main outflow valve to modulate toward closed in an attempt to pressurize the cabin
to the altitude set in the CAB ALT indicator. The CAB ALT indicator should be set to 200 feet below
takeoff field elevation. This pressurization while still on the ground ensures that the transition to
pressurized flight is more gradual. It also allows the pressurization system to better respond to ground
effect pressure changes during takeoff.

For this “demonstration flight” in


the STANDBY mode, the following
elevations/altitudes are assumed:

Takeoff field elevation: 1,700 feet


Cruise altitude: 30,000 feet
Lading field elevation: 1,300 feet

Pressurization System
STANDBY Mode Operation
Once airborne, the pilot should reference the cabin/flight altitude placard. The CAB ALT indicator should
then be set to the isobaric cabin altitude, based on the proposed cruise altitude and differential pressure.
For example, if the proposed cruise altitude is 30,000 feet, then the CAB ALT indicator should be set to
5,100 feet.

The cabin rate selector should also be set to the desired cabin rate of pressure change. Recall that DECR
has a rate of change equal to 50 feet/min., the index has a rate of change equal to 300 feet/min., and INCR
has a rate of change equal to 2000 feet/min.

For this “demonstration flight” in

MANUAL Mode Operation
To operate in the MANUAL mode, simply position the pressurization mode selector to either MAN AC or
MAN DC. This action signals the pressure controller to operate in the MANUAL mode and also
illuminates the MANUAL light.

Operation in the MANUAL mode assumes that both the AUTO and STANDBY modes have failed. By
using the main outflow valve switch, the pilot modulates the position of the main outflow valve to
maintain the desired cabin pressure. MAN AC utilizes the AC motor, while MAN DC utilizes the DC motor.
AC motor speed is faster than DC motor speed. Position of the main outflow valve may be observed in
the main outflow valve position indicator.
