A: 1 in the forward cargo compartment, 1 in the aft cargo compartment

Q: On the ground the OFV are controlled?

A: To fully open

Q: If 1 OCU is failed in flight, what are the effects?

A: No effect on performance / no effect on PRESS page

Q: If both OCUs fail or CPIOM fails, what are the effects?

A: Crew has to select MAN mode and set delta pressure according to reference table and check
indications on PRESS page

UNPRESSURIZED COMPARTMENT VENTILATION

Q: Which unpressurized compartments are ventilated?

A: Pack bay and MLG bay

Q: Pack bay ventilation has which components in each subsystem (L + R)?

A: -Turbofan supply valve

-Turbofan

-Ground inlet

-RAI

-Outlets

Q: MLG bay ventilation only operated when?

A: In flight (NACA inlet on LH belly fairing → piccolo tubes into MLG →outlet through grid in bottom
of bay

Q: Pack by ventilation is controlled and monitored by?

A: ASCU (L + R)

Q: The turbofan supply valve is controlled how?

A: Solenoid controlled (ASCU) air operated (spring loaded closed)

Q: The turbofan supply calve is only open when?

A: On ground

Q: In flight, air supply for the MLG bay ventilation comes from?

A: RAI

Q: Which of the inlets has a filter?

A: The ground inlet for the turbofan

Q: If the turbofan supply valve is not closed at a specified altitude what will happen?

A: A aneroid capsule closes the valve

Q: If a turbofan supply valve is failed closed on the ground, the pack will?

A: Automatically shut down

CONDITIONED SERVICE AIR SYSTEM (CSAS)

Q: What is the function of CSAS?

A: Decrease ozone concentration and adjust bleed air temperature/pressure for inert gas generation
system (IGSS)

Q: CSAS includes 2 subsystem, each subsystem has?

A: -1 ozone converter

-Compressor check valve

-Main heat exchanger and precooler heat exchanger

-Ram air outlet (RAO) and pack/CSAS RAI

-Temperature control valve (TCV)

-Turbine valve

-Turbo compressor

-CSAS inlet valve

Q: What are the CSAS modes?

A: -Standby mode: System electrically energized, no bleed air supplied, inlet valve closed

-Direct mode: Bleed supplied / inlet valve open / turbine valve closed / bleed air passes
ozone converter and goes through main heat exchanger to IGSS (Turbine and precooler
bypassed) / temperature can be controlled with TCV

-Boosted mode: inlet and turbine valve open / some bleed air drives turbine and compressor
/ compressor sucks air from ozone converter through precooler (compressor check valve will
close) / air goes through main heat exchanger to IGGS / temperature controlled by TCV

Q: The CSAS is controlled and monitored by?

A: ASCU (L + R)

Q: ACS provides communication between ASCUs and?

A: A/C systems

Q: Compressor discharge temperature sensor is used to modulate?

A: Turbine valve

Q: The outlet temperature sensor is used to module?

A: The TCV

Q: What transmits the operational mode request to the related ASCU?

A: IGGS application

Q: if CSAS can not provide enough cooling it will request the pack control system to?

A: Open the pack/CSAS RAI more

Q: If 1 pack is INOP, CSAS is?

A: Also INOP

Q: On the ground (LGERS), CSAS is in which mode?

A: Standby mode
Q: When you press the DITCHING switch, what will happen to CSAS?

A: RAM air doors are closed and CSAS stops

Q: Are the TCV and turbine valve identical?

A: Yes

Q: The CSAS inlet valve is controlled how?

A: Torque motor for modulation / solenoid for shut off function / Pneumatically operated
