OTE: The Forced Standby Mode prevents microwave radiation on the ground, which, under some
circumstances, could hazard personnel in the vicinity of the aircraft. (See related Advisory
Circular in Appendix A of P-440 Pilot’s Manual.) Depression of the S-76C Weight-On-Wheels
switch upon landing terminates radiation of the P-440, even if a radiation mode has been
selected. The Forced Standby feature inhibits selection of a radiation mode on the ground.
When ground radiation is necessary for system checks or weather observation, the Forced
Standby Mode can be overridden by pressing the STAB button four times in three seconds.

a. The steady rate of climb must be determined:
1. With maximum continuous power.
2. With the landing gear retracted.
3. At VY for standard sea level conditions and at speeds selected by the applicant for other conditions.

29.75 Landing: General


a. For each rotorcraft:
1. The corrected landing data must be determined for a smooth, dry, hard and level surface.
2. The approach and landing must not require exceptional piloting skill or exceptionally favorable
conditions.
3. The landing must be made without excessive vertical acceleration or tendency to bounce, nose over,
ground loop, porpoise, or water loop.
b. The landing data required by 29.77, 29.79, 29.81, 29.83, and 29.85 must be determined:
1. At each weight, altitude, and temperature for which landing data are approved.
2. With each operating engine within approved operating limitations.
3. With the most unfavorable center of gravity.

Sikorsky S76 For Training Purposes Only 7-3


March 2013
29.83 Landing: Category B
c. For each Category B rotorcraft, the horizontal distance required to land and come to a complete stop
(or to a speed of approximately 3 Kts for water landings) from a point 50 ft above the landing surface must
be determined with:
1. Speeds appropriate to the type of rotorcraft and chosen by the applicant to avoid the critical areas of
the height velocity envelope under 29.87.
2. The approach and landing made with power on and within approved limits.
d. Each multi-engine Category B that meets the powerplant installation requirements for Category A must
meet the requirements of:
1. Sections 29.79 and 29.81.
2. Paragraph (a) of this section..
3. It must be possible to make a safe landing on a prepared landing surface if complete power failure
occurs during normal cruise.

Catriouy A
Category A, with respect to transport category rotorcraft, means multi-engine rotorcraft designed with engine

a critical engine failure concept which assures adequate designated surface area and adequate performance

a. Based on 150 FPM climb at 1,000 ft AGL.


b.

c.
in the event of a critical engine failure during cruise or approach.

FARs
29.53 Takeoff: Category A
The takeoff performance must be determined and scheduled so that, if one engine fails at any time after the
start of takeoff, the rotorcraft can:
a. Return to, and stop safely on, the takeoff area.
b.
29.67 (a) (2).

29.55 Takeoff Decision Point (TDP): Category A


a.
point in the takeoff path from which a rejected takeoff is assured within the distance determined under
29.62.
b. The TDP must be established in relation to the takeoff path using no more than two parameters: e.g.,
airspeed and height, to designate the TDP.
c. Determination of the TDP must include the pilot recognition time interval following failure of the critical
engine.

Maneuvers

29.59 Takeoff Path: Category A


a. The takeoff path extends from the point of commencement of the takeoff procedure to a point at which
the rotorcraft is 1,000 ft above the takeoff surface and compliance with 29.67 (a) (2) is shown. In addition:
1. The takeoff path must remain clear of the height-velocity envelope established in accordance with
29.87.
2.
made inoperative and remain inoperative for the rest of the takeoff.
3. After the critical engine is made inoperative, the rotorcraft must continue to the takeoff decision point,
and then attain VTOSS.
4. Only primary controls may be used while attaining VTOSS and while establishing a positive rate of
climb. Secondary controls that are located on the primary controls may be used after a positive rate
of climb and VTOSS are established but in no case less than 3 seconds after the critical engine is made
inoperative.
5. After attaining VTOSS and a positive rate of climb, the landing gear may be retracted.
b. During the takeoff path determination made in accordance with paragraph (a) of this section and after
attaining VTOSS and a positive rate of climb, the climb must be continued at a speed as close as practicable
to, but not less than, VTOSS until the rotorcraft is 200 ft above the takeoff surface. During this interval, the
climb performance must meet or exceed that required by 29.67 (a) (1).
c. During the continued takeoff, the rotorcraft shall not descend below 15 ft above the takeoff surface when
the takeoff decision point is above 15 ft.
d. From 200 ft above the takeoff surface, the rotorcraft takeoff path must be level or positive until a height
1,000 ft above the takeoff surface is attained with not less than the rate of climb required by 29.67 (a) (2).
Any secondary or auxiliary control may be used after attaining 200 ft above the takeoff surface.
e. Takeoff distance will be determined in accordance with 29.61.

29.61 Takeoff distance: Category A


a. The normal takeoff distance is the horizontal distance along the takeoff path from the start of the takeoff
to the point at which the rotorcraft attains and remains at least 35 ft above the takeoff surface, attains and
maintains a speed of at least VTOSS, and establishes a positive rate of climb, assuming the critical engine
failure occurs at the engine failure point prior to the takeoff decision point.

29.76 Landing Decision Point (LDP): Category A


a. The LDP is the last point in the approach and landing path from which a balked landing can be accomplished
in accordance with 29.85.
b. Determination of the LDP must include the pilot recognition time interval following failure of the critical
engine.

Sikorsky S76 For Training Purposes Only 7-5


March 2013
29.79 Landing: Category A
a. For all Category A rotorcraft:
1. The landing performance must be determined and scheduled so that if the critical engine fails at any
point in the approach path, the rotorcraft can either land and stop safely or climb out and attain a

2. The approach and landing paths must be established with the critical engine inoperative so that the
transition between each stage can be made smoothly and safely.
3. The approach and landing speeds must be selected by the applicant and must be appropriate to the
type of rotorcraft.
4. The approach and landing path must be established to avoid the critical areas of the height-velocity
envelope determined in accordance with 29.87.
b. It must be possible to make a safe landing on a prepared landing surface after complete power failure
occurring during normal cruise.

29.80 Landing distance: Category A


The horizontal distance required to land and come to a complete stop (or to a speed of approximately 3 Kts
for water landings) from a point 50 ft above the landing surface must be determined from the approach and
landing paths established in accordance with 29.79.

29.85 Balked landing: Category A


For Category A rotorcraft, the balked landing path with the critical engine inoperative must be established so
that:
a. The transition from each stage of the maneuver to the next stage can be made smoothly and safely.
b. From the LDP on the approach path selected by the applicant, a safe climb out can be made at speeds
allowing compliance with the climb requirements of 29.67 (a) (1) and (2).
c. The rotorcraft does not descend below 15 ft above the landing surface.

1. The total usable capacity of 281.2 U.S. gallons (140.6 gallons per tank) is based on actual test results.
2. The usable fuel table (gravity fuelling) and the fuel arm table are for equal weights of fuel in each tank.
3. The standard S-76 helicopter is equipped with a capacitor type fuel quantity gauge which is calibrated in pounds. Aircraft
fuel varies in weight per gallon dependent upon the specific gravity and temperature of the fuel. Therefore, the notation
“FULL” does not appear on the instrument dial. The pilot should anticipate variations in the instrument readings when
tanks are full.

4. Only primary controls may be used while attaining VTOSS and while establishing a positive rate of
climb. Secondary controls that are located on the primary controls may be used after a positive rate
of climb and VTOSS are established but in no case less than 3 seconds after the critical engine is made

Cockpit and Cabin Doors


Passenger/crew doors consist of the pilot and copilot cockpit doors and two passenger doors or sliding doors,
one on each side of the cabin. Both cockpit doors are automobile-type doors and are opened and closed

if necessary. A window is installed in each door. The pilot and copilot doors also provide entrance and exit
for passengers in the forward row of passenger seats. A sliding door may be installed in place of the right or
left passenger door. The right and left sliding doors open by moving aft along the fuselage on tracks. These
doors also have inside and outside handles. The sliding doors cannot be jettisoned, but the window in each
door can be jettisoned.

March 2013
CockpFt Doous
A hinged door is installed on each side of the cockpit. The pilot door is on the right side and the copilot door
is on the left side. Both doors open and close like automobile doors; each is hinged at the forward edge and
latched at the rear edge; each has a detent at the half-open and the full-open positions. Both doors have
key locks which allows for locking the doors from outside the helicopter. The doors can also be jettisoned
and are readily removable for maintenance by means of the jettison mechanism. In addition to the pilot and
copilot, the doors provide entrance and exit for passengers in the forward row of seats. Each door has a large
window and has a small, hinged window in the forward part of the large window.

March 2013
Aircraft Overview

Operating controls are an inside latch handle, an outside latch handle, an inside jettison release lever, a door
lock or secondary lockpin, and a pull handle. The inside latch handle is installed near the aft edge of the door;
when it is pulled aft it unlocks the latch and, unless the door lock is engaged, allows the door to open. The
outside latch handle is recessed into the door near the aft edge; when it is pulled up it unlocks the latch and,
if the door lock is engaged, disengages the door lock and allows the door to open. The inside jettison release
lever is installed in a recess, near the front edge of the door; it is covered by a readily removable transparent
cover so it will not be moved accidentally.

the red knob is pulled out and up, a hinge pin is pulled out of each hinge and the latch is unlocked. If the door
is then struck sharply just above the release lever it will jettison. The door lock, or secondary lockpin, is a
backup for the latch, to prevent the door from being opened accidentally from the inside.

Figure 10-11: Door Jettison Handle


The secondary lockpin is in the top of the door near the aft corner of the window; it is engaged and locks
the door by pushing down a door lock knob in the window sill above the inside latch handle. The lockpin is
disengaged by pulling the knob up or by pulling up the outside latch handle; the inside latch handle cannot
disengage the lockpin.

Aircraft Overview

The lower end of the lockpin is visible from inside the cockpit. The lockpin is red except for the bottom

lockpin is not fully engaged; when about 9/16 inch of red shows, the lockpin is completely disengaged.

WEDGE AND
RETENTION PLATE

Figure 10-13: Wedge and Retention Plate

A hinged door is installed on each side of the cabin. Both doors open and shut like regular automobile
doors. Each door is hinged at the forward edge and latched at the rear edge. Each door has a detent at the
half-open and the full-open positions. Both the doors have key locks which allows for locking the doors
from outside the helicopter. The doors can also be jettisoned and are readily removable for maintenance by
means of the jettison mechanism. The doors provide entrance and exit for passengers in the center and aft
rows of seats. Each door has a large window. Both the doors are the same.

Figure 10-15: Hinged Cabin Doors

Another available optional cabin door is a hinged door that opens at an angle of 135° to provide unobstructed
access through the cabin opening. These doors have safety lockpins and can be jettisoned just like the
standard hinged doors.

Operating controls are two inside latch handles, an outside latch handle, an inside jettison release lever, a
door lock or secondary lockpin, and a pull handle. The inside latch handles are installed near the forward
and aft edges of the door. When either handle is pulled aft it unlocks the latch and, unless the door lock is
engaged, allows the door to open. The outside latch handle is recessed into the door near the aft edge; when
it is pulled up it unlocks the latch and, if the door lock is engaged, disengages the door lock and allows the
door to open.

The inside jettison release lever is installed in a recess, near the front edge of the door; it is covered by a
removable transparent cover, so that it will not be moved accidentally. To jettison the door, the door lock knob

hinge is pulled out of each hinge and the latch is unlocked. If the door is then struck sharply just above the
release lever it will jettison.

Figure 10-18: Door Jettison Handle

The door lock, or secondary lockpin, is a backup for the latch, to prevent the door from being opened
accidentally from the inside. The lockpin is in the top of the door near the aft corner of the window; it is
engaged and locks the door by pushing down a door lock knob in the window sill above the aft inside latch
handle. The lockpin is disengaged by pulling the knob up or by pulling up the outside latch handle; the inside
latch handle cannot disengage the lockpin. The lower end of the lockpin is visible from inside the cabin. The

A door hold-open retainer is installed on the fuselage above the roller and support assembly. A spring-loaded
latch on the inside of the door handle/latching assembly engages the door hold-open retainer, locking the
door in the full open position. Disengagement of the latch from the door hold-open retainer is done by
pushing a button on the forward edge of the door. A bumper is installed on the aft edge of the sliding door
fairing. The bumper protects the baggage door when the sliding door is pushed open and the baggage door
is also in the open position. The sliding door cannot be jettisoned, but is removable for maintenance. An
electrical microswitch is installed in the fuselage forward door frame. The microswitch provides an indication
to the cockpit when the door is unlatched and in the open position.

Danger Areas

Rotor Danger Areas


Ensure personnel remain as far as possible from turning rotors. Do not approach the helicopter during the starting
or stopping operation of the rotors because the rotor disc has a potentially wide range of motion. If you are
approaching a helicopter while the rotors are turning, then make sure that the pilot is aware of your intention and
has approved your approach to the helicopter. Approach only from either side of the helicopter.

Radar Danger Areas


The heating and radiation effects of weather radar can be hazardous to organic tissue in humans and animals.
Personnel should remain at a minimum distance of 28 ft radius from the radiating antenna.

erect the gyro in the roll axis, and the slip ring contacts to apply power to the motors, synchros, and pitch
displacement data to electrical connector J1. The frame assembly is used to mount the roll synchro stator,
for monitoring gyro displacement in the roll axis; the pitch torque motor to erect the gyro in the pitch axis;

The vertical gyro develops through synchros, pitch and roll electrical signals representative of the helicopter
attitude through 360º of roll and 682º of pitch. The erection system incorporates separate systems for pitch
and roll. Vertical reference is established by two gravity-sensitive electrolytic switches which control a torque

(26 VAC) voltage to the respective torque motor. The gyro will erect to within 0.5º of vertical in pitch and roll.

The turn rate gyro consists of two linear variable differential transformers. The core material for each variable
transformer or E bar pick-off is rigidly held in space by the rotation of the turn rate gyro’s spin-wheel. The
excitation voltage is applied to a winding on the center bobbin of the E bar. The output windings are series
connected and are attached to the end bobbins of the E bar. The E bar windings will move with the case as
part of the helicopter; the bar is held rigid by the gyro motor. The relative motion of the E bar stator windings
produces a rate output whose polarity indicates direction and whose amplitude indicates rate of change. The
turn rate gyro contains two such linear variable differential transformers. The output of one is used to supply
the pilot turn rate indicator, contained in the pilot attitude indicator. The second linear variable differential

the gyro is up to speed and is used to operate the pilot rate gyro warning indicator.

The Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) combines the functions of a vertical gyro, a gyro

in which the sensors - Fiber Optic Gyros (FOGs) and level sensors are literally “strapped” to the aircraft

Heading (HDG) Mode


The heading mode maintains the heading selected on the heading bug. Engagement is annunciated by the
ON legend on the button.
Heading can be engaged when the other roll modes are armed.
Heading will automatically drop off when another roll command is captured.
If not already selected, Heading mode will automatically engage when another roll mode is armed but out
of the capture area.
Heading will automatically drop off when the armed roll command is captured.
Any previously captured roll mode will be canceled when HDG is engaged.

Navigation (NAV) Mode

navigation source is selected using the aircraft navigation switching function to display the desired radio on
the HSI. This mode is normally used to track TO or FROM a VOR station; however, RNAV, LNAV, or LOC

desired intercept angle. The preferred intercept angle is 30 to 60º. Pressing the NAV switch will cause the
ARM light to illuminate and will also engage the HDG mode (if not already engaged). When the aircraft
nears an on-course condition, the HDG and ARM lights will extinguish, the green CAP light will illuminate
and the aircraft will turn on course. VOR deviation is gain programmed as a function of DME distance from
the station, thus, the DME should be selected to the same VOR station that is being tracked for optimum
performance. When passing over the VOR station, an Overstation Sensor (OSS) detects station passage,
removing the VOR deviation signal from the command until it is no longer erratic. While over the station,
course changes are made by selecting a new outbound course on the EHSI.

operation is the same as described above.


If the NAV is invalid, the system will remain in the ARM mode and continue to follow the selected heading.
Once captured, an invalid NAV will cause the roll command bar to bias out of view.

VOR APR

navigation receiver is tuned to a VOR station. Operation is the same as described under the NAV mode

The primary function of the AL-300 is to display the command, or reference, numbers that are used with the
ALT PRE, IAS, VS, RAD ALT, VEL HLD, or altitude alert mode(s). Refer to appropriate mode descriptions for
more information.
Whenever the IAS, VS, RAD ALT, or VEL HLD (Doppler valid) modes are selected the display will show
the reference number for that mode for a period of 5 seconds. Any time the appropriate four-way switch is
actuated to beep to a new reference, the display will show the appropriate mode value being changed. When
FTR is pressed with a mode engaged, the AL-300 will display the current reference value for that mode.
When FTR is released, the displayed value will become the new reference for that mode. For example, when

Upon engagement, the current barometric altitude will be maintained. Altitude changes are made by pressing

the new altitude. As with the IAS mode, the new reference will be established and maintained upon release
of the FTR switch.

The indicated airspeed hold mode will always control airspeed through the pitch mode, even when more
than one pitch axis is engaged (i.e., 3-cue). When pressed, this mode will establish the current IAS as
the reference. The reference may be changed (beeped) by fore-aft motion of the four-way beep switch
on the cyclic or by pressing the cyclic FTR while maneuvering to a new airspeed which will become the
new reference when the FTR is released. The AL-300 will display the reference for 5 seconds after mode

If the air data sensor becomes invalid, the pitch command bar will bias out of view but the IAS annunciator
will remain on.
NTT: The IAS reference displayed on the AL-300 is provided by the P&G air data computer.
Therefore, the reference may differ slightly from indicated speed.

The altitude preselect mode is used to perform an automatic level-off and capture of a desired altitude.
To use this mode, the desired altitude is selected using the SET knob on the AL-300 display followed by
pressing the ALT PRE mode button on the FD mode selector. The pushbutton will annunciate ARM. At this

If the IAS mode is also engaged, beep in the desired vertical speed reference on the AL-300 using fore-aft
motion of the four-way beep switch on the collective or manually reposition the collective (using the force trim
release trigger) to establish the vertical speed.
If the IAS mode is not engaged, beep in the desired vertical speed reference using fore-aft motion of the
four-way beep switch on the cyclic or manually reposition the cyclic (using force trim release) to establish the
vertical speed.
After establishment of the vertical speed reference, the AL-300 will continue to display the selected altitude

As the aircraft nears the desired altitude, the ARM annunciation will change to CAP and the VS mode will
disengage. The aircraft will then begin to level-off to capture the selected altitude. When the aircraft reaches
the selected altitude, CAP will extinguish and ALT hold will turn ON. The aircraft will now remain in ALT hold.

Altitude Alert Function


An altitude alert function is an optional feature of the SPZ-7600 system. This function will provide visual
and aural annunciation as the aircraft approaches, or deviates from, the selected altitude. To operate the
altitude alert feature, the desired altitude is selected using the SET knob on the AL-300. The system is now

As the aircraft approaches 1,000 ft from the selected altitude, the alert light turns on. The light remains on
until the aircraft is within 250 ft of the selected altitude. If the aircraft later deviates from the selected altitude
by 250 ft or more, the light comes back on, along with a continuous display of the altitude reference on
the AL-300. The light and AL-300 display remain on until the aircraft returns to within 250 ft of the selected
altitude or a new altitude reference is set on the AL-300. An alert horn, which emits a one second beep in
conjunction with illumination of the altitude alert light, is an optional feature.

pressing the remote go-around switch on the collective. When engaged, this mode will cancel all other

wings level and smoothly enter a climb of approximately 750 FPM. The collective axis will automatically
maintain airspeed at approximately 75 Kts or more (V ).
A remote go-around switch is located on each collective but can only engage go-around (cannot cancel
GA mode).
Go-around engagement is inhibited when AOG (Aircraft-on-Ground) conditions exist.

When in the RAD ALT mode, the collective command bar on the Electronic Attitude Director Indicator (EADI)
will be biased out of view if the radar altimeter becomes invalid. When the RAD ALT mode is engaged at low
altitude, the pilot should be attentive to the collective and hover height.
Either pilot may use fore-aft motion of the collective four-way trim switch to adjust the radar altitude.
Initially, the beep rate will change the reference altitude in the AL-300 at a rate of 4 ft per second.
If the four-way trim switch is held for more than 5 seconds, the rate increases to 16 ft per second.

Electrical System

General
The primary source of electrical power is a 28 VDC system. A 115 VAC system is also incorporated to meet
the helicopter’s electrical power requirements.

DC System
The primary power source for the DC system is two starter/generators. The secondary power source is a
24 Volt aircraft battery. A 200 Amp starter/generator is mounted on the accessory gear box section of each
engine. They function as engine starters when provided with DC power from the battery or an external power
source. After an engine start when the engine is operating at idle, they function as DC generators. Generator
control units regulate generator output and protect against overvoltage, undervoltage, reverse current, and
ground fault conditions.
A 28 VDC external power receptacle is on the right side of the fuselage aft of the main landing gear door.
External power will supply power to the entire DC system except for the battery bus. When external power
is being used, the batteries are automatically disconnected from the rest of the DC system. When either
generator is operating, external power is automatically disconnected from the DC system.
DC power is distributed through four buses. The No.1 DC primary bus is powered by the No.1 generator
and the No. 2 DC primary bus is powered by the No.2 generator. The DC essential bus and battery bus are
connected to No.1 generator output through a bus tie contactor. If either generator is inoperative, the other
generator will provide power to all four buses. If both generators are inoperative and external power is not in
use, only the DC essential and battery buses will be powered from the battery.

A 24 Volt battery is located in the aft electrical compartment on helicopters with aft battery (standard), or
in the forward left electrical compartment in the helicopter nose section on helicopters with forward battery
(Optional). The battery is hard-mounted, using two hold-down rods conforming to a holding strap which is
part of the battery cover. The battery cabling terminates in a quick-attach battery connector. Installation may
be either a 24 Volt DC/44 Ampere hour Nickel-Cadmium (NICAD) battery or a 24 Volt DC/42 Ampere hour
Sealed Lead Acid Battery (SLAB).

A battery over temperature protection system automatically disconnects the battery from the electrical
system if battery temperature, due to normal recharging, reaches 63°C (145°F). The battery is automatically
reconnected to the electrical system when its temperature drops to 52°C (125°F) or if both generators
malfunction. The battery will also be disconnected from the electrical system when external power is applied.

Battery Feed Fault (Nose Mounted Battery Installation Only)
When the battery is installed in the forward position (optional installation), a battery junction box and feeder
line provide the means to connect the nose-mounted battery to the DC junction box in the rear of the aircraft.
The ground fault panel acts in conjunction with two current transformers to provide a fault detection circuit
for the battery feed line. When a differential current is sensed, the ground fault panel provides a voltage to
light the BATT FEED FAULT caution capsule on the IIDS. The battery contactor isolates the battery feed line

protect the ground fault panel from induced high voltage transients. This protection is necessary because
damage to the ground fault panel could cause the battery to be disconnected from its loads.
A test of the ground fault system is conducted prior to engine start. The battery feeder fault test switch checks
the integrity of the ground fault panel and associated current transformers by simulating an imbalance in the
current sensing circuit as a result of a ground fault. When the BATT FEED FAULT test switch is held to either
the FWD or AFT position and then the battery is turned on, the BATT FEED FAULT caution lamp above the
switch illuminates and the battery is automatically disconnected from the DC essential bus. Releasing the
test switch and setting the battery switch to OFF and then ON resets the ground fault monitoring circuit.

External Power
The DC external power receptacle provides for the connection of a DC external power source used to supply
ground power to the helicopter. When the external power receptacle door is opened, a microswitch mounted
in the door frame causes a DOOR OPEN caution capsule on the IIDS and the EXT PWR light on the center
console door warning indicator to illuminate. External power is controlled by a two-position ON-OFF switch.
Polarity protection is provided by a polarity protection diode. Overvoltage protection is provided by the OVV
protection circuit breaker and a voltage sensor. The pull in voltage for the voltage sensor is 18.6 ±0.5 VDC
and the dropout voltage is less than 17.5 VDC or greater than 30.6 ±0.5 VDC.

Starter Generators
The 200 Amp 28 VDC starter/generator is driven by the engine N1 gearing through the accessory section and
will provide full output power at 50% N1. When operated as an engine starter, the motor is series-connected
and supplied by the helicopter battery, the second generator, or external DC power. When engine starting
is complete, the motor automatically becomes a generator. The generator is capable of delivering rated
output when driven at 4,480 RPM (shaft speed at ground idle). Provision is made in the No. 1 and No. 2 DC
generator control panels for adjusting the No. 1 and No. 2 starter/generators 28 VDC output.

applicable DC GEN caution capsule to go off, and then back on. Under these conditions, the DC GEN caution
capsule remains on while cycling the associated GENERATORS switch.
When a starter/generator is used as a generator to start the opposite engine, the ground fault protective
circuit is automatically disabled in the DC generator control unit of the operating generator. The high starting
current of the unit used as a starter would appear to the generator unit as the high current associated with a
ground fault. The No. 1 and No. 2 DC generator control units provide for adjustment of the No. 1 and No. 2
starter/generators 28 VDC output.

Figure 14-9: DC Generators 1 and 2 Control Switches

Two switches on the pilot upper overhead switch panel marked GENERATORS - No.1 DC and No.2 DC have
positions marked ON, OFF, and RESET.
ON connects each power distribution system when the generator control panel senses that generator output
is within limits.
OFF switches off the generator and disconnects it from the distribution system.
If the generator has been dropped off the line due to a momentary overvoltage or other fault (#1 or #2 DC
GEN caution light on), placing the switch to RESET and then ON will restore generator operation. The reset
circuits are connected to the DC essential bus by circuit breakers marked DC GEN RESET.
It is recommended that the switch be placed in the OFF position for 5 seconds before placing the switch to

No. 1 and No. 2 Start contactors
The start contactors provide battery or external power to the starter generators during engine start. The
contactors have two sets of auxiliary contacts. One set of contacts close, shorting out the respective

regulation unit. The DC control/voltage regulator units are used only in the generator mode of operation.

No. 1 and No. 2 Generator Contactors

the generator output voltage is over that of the bus by 0.5 VDC. The No.2 generator contactor also provides
power to the air conditioning and utility hoist systems.

Bus Tie Contactor


The bus tie contactor closes when it senses 28 VDC. The contactor is open at voltage less that 28 VDC to
prevent the battery from supplying power to the DC primary buses when the it is the sole source of power.
When 28 VDC is sensed, the closed bus tie allows the DC generator or external power to supply the DC
essential bus.

Master Start Contactor


The master start contactor completes the circuit from the helicopter battery or the external DC power source
to the input contacts of both engine start contactors. The master start contactor is controlled by the cockpit
MASTER START switch.

Essential Bus Recover Contactor


The DC essential bus recovery contactor transfers DC essential and No. 1 DC primary bus loads to the
No. 2 DC generator when the DC essential bus recovery switch is on.

Battery Contactor
The battery contactor is used in conjunction with the battery control contactor to connect the battery to
the DC essential bus. When external DC power is applied to the helicopter, and the BATT switch is ON,
the battery is automatically disconnected from the helicopter bus system. If the battery is on and either
starter/generator operates as a generator, the battery receives a constant voltage charge.

Battery Control Unit


The battery control unit is used to cause either the No. 1 or No. 2 DC primary bus current limiter to open in
case a short to ground exists on the respective bus. This short circuit protection will occur if the BATT switch
is ON and whether or not a battery over-temperature condition exists. This function also causes a momentary
power up of the primary buses when the battery is initially turned on.
Should either the No. 1 or No. 2 DC Primary bus experience a low resistance ground, the load shifting
between generators causes the loss of power on both primary buses, resulting in the bus tie contactor
closing.
With the BATT switch ON, battery power is applied to the DC ESNTL bus, but this bus is disconnected from
the primary buses by the closed bus tie contactor.. The battery control unit monitors both generator loads

current is now available to cause the current limiter of the grounded bus to open.
If the battery was disconnected due to over-temperature before the ground occurred, a second output from

During an over-temperature condition, the IIDS BATT HOT caution capsule will stay on while the BATT OFF
caution capsule will go off momentarily as the battery current is supplied to open the current limiter, and then

Electrical System

External Power Contactor


The external power contactor provides a path from an external power source to the DC electrical system
when the EXT PWR switch is ON. When external power is applied, the battery is automatically disconnected
from the DC essential bus system.

External Power Interlock Relay


The external power interlock relay electrically interrupts external power when either or both starter/generators
are operating as a generator and the associated generator’s switch is ON. The generators then supply all
DC buses.

Current Limiters
Up to six current limiters may be installed in the DC junction box. Current limiter CL1/DC is rated at
100 Amps and is used to protect the No. 1 DC primary bus should the bus malfunction to ground. Current
limiter CL2/DC is rated at 100 Amps and protects the No. 2 DC primary bus and the static inverter in the
AC power system. Current limiter CL3/DC is rated at 80 Amps and protects the DC essential bus. Current
limiter CL4/DC is rated at 150 Amps and is used to protect the No. 1 and No. 2 generators if a fault occurs
in the utility hoist system. Current limiter CL5/DC is rated at 80 Amps and protects the DC power source if a
fault occurs in the utility hoist system during emergency mode operation. Current limiter CL6/DC is rated at
100 Amps and protects the air conditioning system should a ground fault occur on the No. 2 DC primary bus.

AC System
The power source for the AC electrical system is two static inverters which are powered by the DC electrical
system. An optional AC generator provides power for the heated windshield, and acts as a backup power
source if both inverters fail.
The No. 1 inverter supplies AC power to the No. 1 primary 115 VAC bus, and the No. 1 primary 26 VAC bus.
The No. 2 inverter supplies AC power to the No. 2 primary 115 VAC bus, and the No. 2 primary 26 VAC bus.
If either inverter fails, the remaining inverter will supply power to all AC buses through cross connects. If both
inverters fail, the AC generator (if installed) will restore power to both AC buses.

No. 1 and No. 2 AC primary buses and No. 1 and No. 2 26 VAC buses.
The inverters are capable of producing both 115 VAC and 26 VAC outputs.
The static inverters are powered by the DC electrical system. The No.2 inverter is powered by the DC essential
bus and the No.1 inverter is powered by the No.2 DC primary bus. The inverters have built-in overvoltage and
undervoltage protection, reverse polarity protection, and over and under frequency protection. A dedicated
circuit provides information to the IIDS power monitor.
Failure indication consists of the IIDS caution No. 1 INV FAIL for the No. 1 inverter and NO. 2 INV FAIL for

AC Generators
Three-phase AC is generated by the 10 KVA, AC generator which is mounted vertically on the right drive pad
of the main transmission aft of the main rotor. The generator shaft is driven when the rotor turns. Nominal
generator shaft drive speed is 12,000 RPM, represented by 107% NR (rotor speed). Three-phase AC is
required if the windshield heat is installed.
The generator consists of three separate inductively coupled generator stages, providing self-excitation and

all mounted in a single frame and having a common rotor shaft.


The generator is supported at the driven end and thrust end by two grease-lubricated, double-shielded ball
bearings. In addition to these main bearings two grease-lubricated, doubled-shielded auxiliary ball bearings
are provided for emergency condition, short-rated operation.

In case of main bearing failure, the associated auxiliary bearing provides support for the generator rotor for

The GEN - AC switch on the pilot upper overhead switch panel has three positions: ON, OFF, and TEST. ON
connects the generator to the AC power distribution system when the generator control panel senses that
generator output is within limits. OFF switches off the generator and disconnects it from the AC system. If the
generator is dropped off the line due to a momentary overvoltage or other fault (AC GEN caution light on),
placing the switch to OFF, then ON will restore generator operation.
The TEST position may be used to test generator output before connecting it to the AC distribution system

Pressing the Menu button on the engine display menu will present three soft key selection options: RECALL,
ELEC, and START.
Selecting ELEC presents a volt/ammeter page. Although caution/warning information is retained while the
volt/ammeter page is in view, the addition of a legend and resultant illumination of master caution results in
the deletion of the volt/ammeter page to enable direct review of temperature/pressure instruments.
If desired, the function can be immediately reselected by touching MENU and ELEC. The menu, if in view, is
not deleted with the addition of a new caution/warning.

Automatic Temperature
Control System (C4)

General Description
The automatic temperature control system controls cabin temperature without continual crew member
intervention. This system is also known as the cockpit and cabin climate control or C4 system. Select
cabin temperature on a cockpit master control panel on the copilot's overhead switch panel, or on optional
passenger select panel(s). The system also provides air conditioned or heated air to the cockpit, and de-fogs
and de-frosts the cockpit windshield. The controller makes possible a fully automatic cabin temperature
system mixing heat, air conditioning and vent air, as needed. Manual operation of heat, ventilation or air
conditioning can be selected if desired, or if the automatic system fails.
The cooling source is a single vapor cycle freon air conditioner; the heating and de-fog source is engine bleed
air. The ventilation system draws outside air in through the air conditioner evaporator blower and delivers this
air to the cabin and cockpit. Heat, A/C, and vent mixing is used to regulate the overall temperature.

Air Conditioning
The air conditioning system initially operates at maximum capacity to attain the selected temperature. When
the cooling requirement diminishes, conditioned air is mixed with small amounts of engine bleed air. The

Heating
The bleed air heat system initially operates at maximum capacity to attain the selected temperature. When
the heating requirement diminishes, the heated air is mixed with ambient air.

Two bleed air heat ejectors, one each located in front of each pilot’s feet, supply cockpit heat. Manually adjust

Ventilation System
Outside vent air is delivered to the cabin and cockpit by the air conditioner blower through the overhead cool
air ducts.

Windshield De-fog
Separate bleed air ejectors use dry conditioned air for windshield de-fog and de-frost. Add heat manually
using the windshield de-frost manual valve. This heat can also be used to heat the cockpit.

System Operation
AuaoematS Modhs
Two AUTO TEMP switches, ON-OFF and UP-TEMP-DOWN on the master control panel, provide the
automatic cabin temperature function. When the ON/OFF switch is selected ON, the green AUTO LED will
illuminate.
When using the three-way momentary UP-TEMP-DOWN switch to increase or decrease the selected cabin

temperature.
The green HEAT or blue A/C LED (as appropriate) will illuminate. If any of the manual modes (VENT, CBN
HEAT or AC) is already selected before automatic mode is selected, the automatic mode will not operate. If
any of the manual modes is selected after automatic mode is selected and activated, the controller cancels
automatic mode and the AUTO annunciator extinguishes.
Selecting either A/C, CABIN HEAT or VENT ON manually overrides the automatic function of the C4 system.
NOTE: The BLEED AIR ON-AUTO-OFF switch must be selected to ON if the automatic system is
not actively using bleed air.

Freon Air Conditioning

General Description
A freon air conditioning system provides conditioned cold air for the cabin and cockpit. The system distributes
the cold air through the overhead ducting, and can also circulate ambient air without A/C.
The 1 DC PRI bus supplies control power for the air conditioning system.

Components
Coeprhssor
The compressor compresses the low pressure refrigerant gas to a high pressure and high temperature gas,
then sends it to the condenser.

Condhnshr
The condenser condenses this gas to a liquid state. The liquid refrigerant passes through the receiver drier,
which removes moisture and cools the refrigerant as it circulates within the condenser.

Evmpormaor
The evaporator returns the refrigerant liquid to a low temperature gas state. The air is cooled as it passes
through the evaporator and then distributed through the system.

Control and Indicators


Atr Condtatontng Conarol Pmnhl
The air conditioning control panel is located overhead of the copilot. It consists of an AIR COND-OFF-FAN
switch, FAN HI/LOW switch, and blue A/C indicator light.

AIR COND wtaSc
Setting the switch to the FAN position operates the blower in conjunction with the FAN switch. Setting the
switch to the AIR COND position energizes the compressor motor, turning the A/C system on. Setting the
switch to the OFF position shuts down the air conditioning system.

FAN wtaSc
The FAN switch selects the fan speed to LO or HI.

A/C IndtSmaor Ltgca


The A/C indicator will illuminate to indicate that the compressor is functioning.

System Operation
Activate the air conditioning system only when both generators are operating. Do not retard the No. 2 engine
to idle with the air conditioning system on, due to the heavy generator loading.

Fire Protection

Fire Protection
The engine fire detection system consists of forward and aft flame detectors in each engine compartment, a
test panel, warning annunciators, and an audible warning system.
Sensing a flame, the detector transmits a signal to an amplifier unit to light the appropriate ENG FIRE
PRESS-TONE OFF warning light on the master warning panels. The amplifier also transmits a continuous
tone signal to the pilot and copilot's headset, and lights the appropriate engine quadrant T-handle warning
light marked No.1 FIRE or No.2 FIRE. The tone signal can be reset for other emergencies by pressing the
affected fire warning light capsule. The warning lights remain on until the fire is extinguished.
A CF3Br fire extinguisher system is installed in the engine compartment. The fire extinguisher agent is stored
in a pressurized container near each engine. Each container has a main and a reserve discharge valve which
releases the agent into the compartment of the selected engine. The main discharge valve of each container
releases the agent into its respective engine compartment and the reserve valve of each container releases
the agent into the opposite engine compartment. The engine compartment to receive the agent is selected
by pulling back the appropriate T-handle on the engine control quadrant.
A SMOKE DET BAGGAGE warning capsule illuminates on the caution panel or an AFT BAG SMOK capsule
on the IIDS engine display and the master caution light will go on when a detector on the forward bulkhead
of the baggage compartment senses smoke.
A fire test panel allows for the testing of the detection and extinguishing systems.

Fire Detection
Flame detectors are mounted on the forward and aft firewalls of each engine compartment. Each detector
has the optical portion in the fire zone and the electrical connection on the opposite side of the firewall to
allow for connection to detector system wiring.
There are two types of fire detectors:
Helicopters prior to serial number 0394 that are not modified by alert service bulletin No. 76-26-2A, use
a photocell flame detector that senses direct and reflected rays of infrared radiation.
Helicopters serial number 0394 and subsequent, or aircraft modified by the service bulletin, use flame
detectors that sense a flickering flame in the 4.3 micrometer wavelength.

Fire Detector Control Amplifiers


Two fire detector control amplifiers, one for each engine, are on the pallet on the left side of the aft electrical
compartment. During a fire, the flame detector sends a signal to the control amplifier. The output voltage of
the amplifier lights the warning lights in the #1 EMER OFF or #2 EMER OFF T-handle on the engine control
quadrant, and #1 and #2 ENG FIRE PRESS-TONE OFF warning capsules on the pilot’s and copilot’s master
warning panel. Simultaneously, a signal is sent to the audible warning system, which emits a 250 Hz steady
tone through the ICS system.

Fire Detector Warning Lights


Warning lights are inside the #1 and #2 EMER OFF T-handles on the engine control quadrant. These lights
and the #1 and #2 ENG FIRE PRESS-TONE OFF warning capsules on the pilot’s and copilot’s master
warning panel illuminate when a fire is detected or when the circuit is checked by operating the FIRE DET
TEST switch.
Pressing either ENG FIRE PRESS-TONE OFF silences the audible steady tone.
When a fire occurs, the forward, aft, or both flame detectors send an electrical signal to the control amplifier
which in turn sends a signal to the appropriate T-handle warning light and FIRE PRESS-TONE OFF warning
lights on the pilot and copilot’s warning panels. At the same time, a signal is sent to the audible warning
system which generates a steady 250 Hz tone through the ICS. The audio signal can be reset by pressing
either FIRE PRESS-TONE OFF warning light. If the fire is extinguished, the circuit returns to normal operation
and the warning indications go off.

Fire Detector Test Switch
The FIRE TEST-DET switch on the overhead control panel, has three positions: NORM, AFT/BAG, and
FWD. With only DC essential bus power available, momentarily placing the switch to AFT/BAG, tests the
circuit continuity of the No.1 and No. 2 engine aft flame detectors. Their respective control amplifier operation
is checked by illumination of both fire warning T-handles, all four FIRE PRESS-TONE OFF warning lights,
and the steady audible warning.
If the switch is placed to FWD, the circuit continuity of the No.1 and No. 2 engine forward flame detectors and
control amplifier operation is checked by the same indications as before.
The FIRE TEST-DET switch can be operated any time as long as the DC ESS bus is energized and the
NO.1 ENG FIRE DETECTOR TEST circuit breaker is pushed in on the lower circuit breaker panel. The
switch is spring-loaded to the NORM position. Placing the switch to NORM switch off the lights and arm the
system to indicate an actual engine fire.
NOTE: This method of testing checks the electrical wiring, the ability of the amplifier to react to the
proper voltage input, and the warning lights. It does not check the ability of the flame detectors
to sense a flame or red light radiation. Actual fire detecting response of the detectors can
only be checked by maintenance doing operational tests.

With #1 DC Primary power (#2 DC Primary C++) applied, placing the switch to AFT/BAG also checks the
continuity of the baggage smoke detection system and causes the AFT BAG SMOKE light to illuminate.

Baggage Smoke Detection


Smoke detection equipment includes a shock-mounted smoke detector on the upper forward wall of the
baggage compartment, a control amplifier, a cockpit indicating system, a test circuit, and a circuit breaker.
The smoke detector in the baggage compartment contains a photocell sensor within a perforated cage which
is normally shielded from the beacon lamp that provides a constant light source. When smoke enters the
smoke detector through the perforated cage, light from the beacon lamp reflects off of the smoke and onto
the photocell, causing an increase in output voltage from the smoke detector to the control amplifier.
The control amplifier amplifies the signal and sends it to the caution/advisory panel in the cockpit, lighting the
SMOKE DET BAGGAGE (Non-IIDS) or AFT BAG SMOK (IIDS) warning capsule. The strength of the signal
voltage depends on the amount of smoke passing through the detector.
Electrical power for the smoke detector is provided at 28 VDC from the No.1 DC PRI bus
(NO. 2 DC PRI bus C++) via the SMK DET circuit breaker on the upper circuit breaker panel.
In earlier smoke detectors, a secondary light source within the smoke detector is used for testing the smoke
detector circuitry. When the FIRE TEST-DET switch on the overhead control panel is placed to AFT/BAG, the
test lamp is directed at the photocell, causing a simulated alarm condition, thus checking the operation of the
smoke detector and other components of the smoke detector system.
In later Smoke detectors with LED lamps, a test lamp is not used to create the simulated alarm condition;
however, the FIRE TEST-DET switch is still utilized to test the smoke detector circuitry.

The smoke detector control amplifier is on the pallet on the left side of the electrical compartment. It is
identical to the flame detector amplifier used for the fire detection system. When smoke is detected in the
baggage compartment, the smoke detector sends a signal to the control amplifier. The signal is amplified
and relayed to the SMOKE DET BAGGAGE caution capsule on the caution/advisory panel or the AFT BAG
SMOK capsule on the IIDS Engine display. The steady audible tone does not sound when the SMOKE DET
BAGGAGE caution capsule illuminates.

Each container is charged to 600 PSI with 1.75 lbs of bromotrifluoromethane (CF3Br) extinguishing agent and
pressurized with dry nitrogen at 21°C (70°F). Each container has a pressure gauge and a pressure versus
temperature decal. The total weight of a fully-charged container (including valves, brackets, clamps, and
cartridges) is about 5.50 lbs maximum.

Discharge tube assemblies are connected to valves on the containers. The valves are fitted with cartridges
that are connected to the extinguishing system. Upon operation, either cartridge is activated by a 28 VDC
electrical charge firing a slug which ruptures the frangible disc and allows the charge in the container to
escape through the valve. The two bottles provide a MAIN and a RESERVE supply of extinguishing agent
when used for only one engine. The contents of both containers may also be discharged simultaneously
for both engines. The ends of the discharge tube assemblies are attached through the engine firewall and
directed at the power sections of each engine.

A safety discharge tube connects each container to an overboard discharge outlet on the left side of the
fuselage. The outlet is capped with a red DISCHARGE INDICATOR set flush with the fuselage skin. If
either container pressure becomes too high, the fusible plug yields and the entire contents of the container
discharge overboard through the safety discharge tube blowing out the disc in the DISCHARGE INDICATOR.
If the red disc is missing it means that one or both containers are empty due to thermal discharge. A check of
the container pressure gauges show whether one or two containers are discharged.

Two T-handles marked #1 ENG EMER OFF and #2 ENG EMER OFF are located on the engine control
quadrant in the cockpit. When the T-handles are in the full forward position, a mechanical actuator depresses
three micro switches. During a fire, warning lights in the respective T-handle will go on. When the T-handle
is pulled aft it causes the mechanical actuator to move away from the micro switches, allowing the switch
contacts to close. The T-handles must be moved aft at least 1 inch to trip the switches to the closed position.

the corresponding valves are armed, moving the switch to MAIN will fire the main valve on the armed bottle
and discharge the extinguishing agent into the selected engine. If necessary, the switch may be moved to
RESERVE, to discharge the opposite container

Fire Extinguishing System Logic


When an engine fire causes illumination of the light in the EMER-OFF T-handle, the T-handle must be pulled
aft. This action will:
1. Arm the fire extinguishing system
2. De-energize the DC generator
3. Move the engine lever to OFF
4. Move the fuel selector to OFF

To activate the extinguishing system, position the FIRE-EXT switch to MAIN. This causes the electrical
current to fire a slug into the main valve of the bottle which releases the fire extinguishing agent into the
respective engine compartment.
If the fire continues, moving the FIRE-EXT switch to RESERVE releases the extinguishing agent from the
opposite bottle into the respective engine compartment.

Fire Extinguisher System Testing


The fire extinguisher test panel provides a method of performing a full functional check of the fire extinguisher
system from the cockpit. This test may be performed whenever desired by the pilot or as required by
maintenance.
Make this check before starting engines:
1. Fire extinguisher test switch - OPEN. Check red WARN light on.

2. Pull both T-handles back 1 inch.

A venting system is necessary to prevent a dangerous buildup of fuel vapor pressure or the creation of a
vacuum which would interfere with delivery of fuel to the engines. Vapor vent tubes are routed from the top
of each tank to an overboard vent and drain cluster on the bottom of the fuselage in front of the main landing
gear. The vent lines cross over the opposite sides resulting in the left tank venting to the right vent cluster
and the right tank venting to the left vent cluster. Engine vapor vent and drain lines are routed from each
engine directly back to the top of each tank. A check valve is installed in the engine vapor vent line to prevent
ingestion of air into the engine during cross feed operations.

A fuel quantity tank unit is attached to each collector. Each unit is comprised of a capacitance-type fuel
quantity probe and a fuel low-level switch. The capacitance-type fuel probe measures the fuel-to-air ratio in
the tank to provide a continuous reading of the fuel weight. An independent fuel low-level switch is attached
near the base of the fuel quantity probe. The fuel low-level switch is adjusted to activate the fuel-low warning
system when approximately 85 to 100 lbs of fuel remain in the corresponding tank.

Four prime check valves (Two in each system) serve to retain fuel within the fuel system to provide fuel prime
for subsequent starts. After shutting down an engine, the check valves close when the system fuel pressure
drops below 10 PSI to trap fuel in the fuel lines.
In event of lost priming, either due to maintenance, prolonged storage, or a malfunctioning check valve, a fuel
priming supply system is incorporated into the fuel system.

Normally, engine priming is not required because of the prime retention provided by the prime check valves.
Loss of prime is typically indicated by continuous low fuel pressure and failure to attain light-off during a
start attempt (with a functioning ignition system). The prime system is installed in the helicopter to prime the
fuel lines when priming is lost. The priming systems are identical for each engine. The system contains an
electrically-operated prime valve which, when opens, allows the operating engine’s fuel pressure to be used
to prime the opposite fuel system. The No. 1 engine prime valve is located in the No. 2 engine compartment.
The No. 2 engine prime valve is located in the No. 1 engine compartment. The prime valves are electrically

Pressure Switches
A hydraulic pressure switch is installed on top of each hydraulic module. The switches indicate, through the
SVO pressure warning circuits, a loss of system pressure after the shut-off valve. When pressure is decreasing,
the servo light illuminates when pressure drops below 1,600 PSI, when the pressure is increasing, the light
extinguishes when the pressure is above 2,100 PSI. The pressure switches are electronically connected
to the SVO shut-off circuits to prevent securing a hydraulic system when the opposite system’s pressure is
below 1,600 PSI.

Pressure Transmitter
A pressure transmitter is installed on each module to provide an indication to the hydraulic pressure indicator.

pilot valves which direct hydraulic pressure to move internal pistons. The pistons move the rod end which
provides the output to the stationary swashplate. The movement of the swashplate changes the pitch in
the rotor blades. Feedback is provided by the feedback link which connects the head of the pistons to the
actuator cases. The feedback link ensures that the pistons stopped in the position determined by the cyclic
and collective control positions.

Ice and Rain Protection

Ice and Rain Protection


Ice and rain protection includes a pitot tube heater system, a windshield defrosting system, a windshield
wiper system, and a windshield washer system. A windshield heat system may be installed. The pitot tube
heater system prevents ice formation on the pitot tubes. The windshields are protected by wiper and washer
systems, and by hot air defrosting and, if installed, electrical heating. On DAFCS-equipped aircraft, the static
ports are also electrically heated.
On the S76 A/A+/A++/C/C++, each engine has an anti-icing system that protects against ice formation in the
air intake duct.
For the S76 A/A+/A++/C/C+, if it is anticipated that the helicopter may be operated in an area where blowing
snow may occur, an optional snow protection kit may be installed. The kit electrically heats the engine inlet

ENGINE BARRIER FILTER SYSTEM, the electrical snow protection kit is removed.
On the S76 C++
electrical snow protection kit is not necessary.
On the S76 B, engine Ice and rain protection is provided by the Engine Air Particle Separator (EAPS). EAPS
are discussed in the S76 B powerplant chapter.

The engine anti-ice system is controlled by the engine anti-ice switches located on the master switch panel
or the pilot’s overhead switch panel.
S76 A
Each engine anti-ice switch controls the solenoid valve in the engine anti-icing air line on the right side of the
corresponding engine. The ON position provides anti-icing by opening the valve (de-energizing the solenoid).
The OFF position closes the valve (energizing the solenoid)
S76 A+/A++/C/C+/C++
Each engine anti-ice switch controls the anti-ice valve in the engine anti-icing air line on the left side of the
corresponding engine. The ON position provides anti-icing by opening the valve (de-energizing). The OFF
position closes the valve (energizing).

Anti-Ice ON Advisory Lights


The #1 and #2 ENG ANTI-ICE ON advisory capsule on the caution panel (Non-IIDS) or performance display
(IIDS) will go on whenever the corresponding engine anti-ice system is operating regardless of the switch
position.
For normal operation (engine operating) the light will go on when the switch is placed to ON. If the anti-ice
air valve does not close when the switch is placed OFF (engine operating), the corresponding advisory and
caution lights will be on.

Anti-Ice Caution Lights


The #1 and #2 ENG ANTI-ICE caution capsules on the caution panel (Non-IIDS) or on the engine and
composite displays (IIDS), will go on when an engine anti-ice pressure switch does not sense air pressure
(valve does not fully open) when the corresponding engine anti-ice switch is ON. The caution light and the
ENG ANTI-ICE ON advisory light will also go on when an engine anti-ice pressure switch senses air pressure
(valve does not fully close) when the corresponding anti-ice switch is OFF.

Engine Anti-Ice Operation


S76 A
The anti-icing air line, connected to the compressor diffuser scroll, carries hot air forward and into the hollow
compressor inlet guide vanes. The system is controlled by the Anti-ice solenoid valve which controls the
engine anti-ice valve. The solenoid valve is normally open, permitting anti-icing if an electrical malfunction
occurs, and must be energized electrically to close. T5 will increase approximately 10°C when the anti-ice
system is in use. The system for the No.1 engine operates from the No.1 DC primary bus and is protected
by a circuit breaker marked No.1 ENG AI CONT. The system for the No.2 engine operates from the No.2 DC
primary bus and is protected by a circuit breaker marked No.2 ENG AI CONT.
S76 A+/A++/C/C+/C++
Hot compressor discharge air is used for anti-ice protection of the air sleeve between the bellmouth and the
engine air intake. An anti-icing air tube connected to the compressor section carries hot air forward and into
the double skin air sleeve. The system is controlled by an electro-pneumatic valve and is on when engine
anti-ice is selected ON. The electro-pneumatic valve is normally open, permitting anti-icing if an electrical
malfunction occurs, and must be energized electrically to close. T5 will increase approximately 10°C when
the anti-ice system is in use.
NON-IIDS
The system for the No.1 engine operates from the No.1 DC primary bus and is protected by a circuit breaker
marked N0.1 ENG AI CONT. The system for the No.2 engine operates from the No.2 DC primary bus and is
protected by a circuit breaker marked No.2 ENG AI CONT.

Snow Protection Kit
If it is anticipated that the helicopter may be operated in an area where blowing snow may occur, a snow
protection kit may be installed to prevent the buildup of ice and snow around the engine inlet heater (bellmouth)

engine bellmouth. These elements are normally powered from the primary DC power system when both DC
generators are on the line. If either DC generator fails, the system is automatically powered from the AC
generator. On snow protection equipped aircraft, the AC generator will be maintained following engine failure
if engine anti-ice has been selected ON.
The snow protection kit operates in conjunction with the engine anti-ice bleed-air system, using the same
anti-ice switches on the master switch panel and the same engine anti-ice caution capsules on the caution
panel (Non-IIDS) or engine and composite displays (IIDS). Placing the engine anti-ice switches in the ON

The snow protection kit may be operated from three different power sources. When the helicopter is on the
ground, the system may be operated with external power connected. When EXT POWER switch is placed on,
the external power contactor in the DC junction box energizes and supplies 28 VDC to energize both system
control contactors on the pallet in the electrical compartment. With the contactors energized, either engine
snow protection system may be operated by placing either ENG ANTI-ICE No.1 or No.2 switch ON. During

interlock relay. However, placing the ENG ANTI-ICE No.1 or No.2 switch ON supplies 28 VDC to the solenoid
of the AC generator/engine out interlock override relay, causing it to energize and connect the AC generator
to its loads.
Single-phase, 115 VAC backup power is supplied by the AC generator to each of the two step-down
transformers mounted on the pallet. If either DC generator fails or is turned off, the step down transformers
supply 29 VAC power for continued system operation.
When the system is initially turned on, (when the OAT is below 15°C) both the #1 and #2 ENGINE ANTI-ICE
ON advisory capsules and the #1 and #2 ENGINE ANTI-ICE caution capsules will illuminate. Thermal
switches located in the Firewall heater blankets of each engine inlet control the #1 and #2 ENGINE ANTI-ICE
ON caution capsules.
When the temperature of each heater blanket reaches 17.8°C (64.0°F), which may take up to three minutes,

blanket heater fail, the affected system will no longer function. When the temperature of the unit cools to
below 17.8°C (64.0°F), the corresponding ENG ANTI-ICE ON caution capsule will illuminate.
The snow kit heats in cycles. If the temperature of the blanket is less than 24-31°C (76-89°F), the resistance of
the low temperature sensor will be low enough to electrically energize the heater control circuit in the controller.
When the blanket reaches a temperature of 36-43°C (96-110°F), the resistance of the low temperature sensor
will be high enough to de-energize the heater control circuit. When the blanket’s temperature decreases to
24-31°C (76-89°F), the cycle will be repeated.

turn off temperature of 36° to 43°C (96° to 110°F) and continues to heat up to a temperature of 48° to 51°C
(118° to 124°F), the resistance of the high-temperature sensor will be high enough to energize the over-
temperature protection circuit in the controller. The over-temperature protection circuit removes electrical
power from the heater and illuminates the ENG ANTI-ICE caution capsule. The caution capsule will remain
illuminated until the temperature falls below 18° ± 2°C (64±4°F)
On helicopters with an air conditioning system installed, an electrical interlock is made between the engine
anti-ice system with snow protection kit and the air conditioning system. Placing either the ENG ANTI-ICE
No.1 or No.2 switch to ON will render the air conditioning system inoperable.

Windshield Heat System
An electrically operated windshield heat system may be installed on aircraft with glass windshields. The AC

Switches
The pilot’s and copilot’s windshields are heated by separate systems controlled with the WINDSHIELD
HEAT switches on the master switch panel or pilot’s overhead switch panel. Later aircraft have a single
switch with CPLT-OFF-BOTH positions. With this switch, either the copilot’s windshield or both windshields
can be heated. The pilot’s windshield cannot be heated individually.
When the WINDSHIELD HEAT switches are placed in the ON position, or CPLT, or BOTH, 28 VDC from the
No.1 or No.2 DC primary bus is supplied to the proper controller via the WSHLD HTR CONT circuit breaker.

Figure 20-26: Windshield Heat Switches

Indicators
On helicopters serial number 0303 and subsequent that are equipped with IIDS, a green W/S HEAT ON
advisory illuminates on the performance display when the windshield heat system is operating. On helicopters
prior to serial number 0303 or not equipped with IIDS, there are no advisory lights to inform the pilot when
the system is operating.
A WINDSHIELD HOT caution light (Non-IIDS) or W/S HEAT HOT caution capsule (IIDS) will illuminate
whenever the windshield temperature sensor exceeds 58°C (135°F).

Controllers
The pilot and copilot windshield systems have separate temperature controllers that cycle the system on and

on and off to limit the temperature range from 24°C (76°F) to 43°C (110°F) and monitor the windshield
temperatures for overheat protection.
The controllers allow 3-phase AC power from the monitor bus to heat the windshields. The pilot’s system

To operate the system, the AC Generator must be on. When the windshield heater switch is placed to ON,
COPILOT, or BOTH (Depending upon installation), three-phase AC electrical power for the heating elements
is supplied the No.1 and No.2 AC monitor bus at 115 V, 400 Hz through the AC generator contactor, current
limiters, and the PLT WSHLD HTR PWR and CPLT WSHLD HTR PWR breakers, respectively.
The pilot relay K2 is energized when the windshield temperature is in the range of 24° to 31°C (76° to 89°F),
allowing three-phase AC power to heat the pilot windshield. The relay is de-energized when the windshield
temperature reaches an operating range of 36° to 43°C (96° to 110°F). This allows 28 VDC from the copilot
controller through the de-energized relay K2 to the copilot relay K1, closing contacts and allowing three-
phase AC power to heat the copilot windshield. The pilot windshield has priority over the copilot windshield.
If the pilot windshield temperature never reaches its operating range limit, the controller may prevent current
from reaching the copilot windshield.
During a malfunction, a separate over-temp circuit will de-energize the relay when the resistance of the
over-temperature sensor is over 343 ohms. The over-temp circuit also provides a signal to illuminate the
WINDSHIELD HOT caution light (Non-IIDS) or W/S HEAT HOT amber legend on the IIDS displays. Also, in
case of short or open circuits in either temperature sensor, the controller shall de-energize the relay.

switch. In operation, the wiper blades are synchronized. The fast speed of the wiper blades is 160 to 180
strokes-per-minute and slow speed is 100 to 120 strokes-per-minute. Electrical power for the windshield
wiper system is supplied by the DC ESNTL bus at 28 VDC through the WSHLD WIPER circuit breaker, on
the lower circuit breaker panel.

Motor
The DC motor, just below the cockpit canopy windshield, in the electronics compartment, provides power to
operate the windshield wipers. The motor is rated 28 VDC, 6.0 Amp. The motor has an automatic parking
feature that returns the wiper blades to the parked position when turned off. The motor is protected from
overheat by a 149°C (300°F) thermostat.

Converters
A converter is just below the pilot’s and copilot’s windshield, in the electronics compartment, and is

motor to each converter. The converters change the rotary motion of the motor to the oscillating motion
required by the wiper blades. Converter, 76200-01011-102/-103, provides a stroke of about 68°. Converter,
76200-01011-104, provides a stroke of about 60°. The pivot stud, which passes through one of the mounting
holes, supports the end of the guide arm.

The drive arm is attached to the serrated shaft of the converter and is the attachment point for the wiper
blade. The guide arm, connected to the pivot stud and wiper blade, keeps the wiper blade vertical and
governs wiper pattern. Wiper travel is about 68°, or 60°, depending on which converter is installed. Spring
tension of about 4-1/2 lbs against the windshield is obtained by an adjustment screw near the bottom of the
drive arm.

Control Switch
The windshield wiper is controlled by a WINDSHIELD WIPER switch on the master switch panel. The FAST
and SLOW positions control the speed of the wiper blades. When placed OFF, the blades are returned to the
inboard edge of the windshields. Current to the DC motor is discontinued when the switch is placed OFF and
the wipers have travelled to the park position.

washer. The continuous duty pump, with an output of 0.07 GPM at 7 PSI, is connected to the reservoir by a

Reservoir:

capacity of 2 to 6 U.S. quarts (1.9 to 5.7 lts), depending on its size.


Control Switch: The windshield washer is controlled by WINDSHIELD WASHER momentary switch, on the
master switch panel or pilot’s overhead switch panel. When the switch is placed ON, the pump will operate.
When released, the switch will return to OFF, discontinuing electrical power to the pump.

Rain Curtain
On helicopters 0501 and subsequent, rain curtains are installed in the forward electronics compartment
(E-Bay) on the left and right sides. These curtains are installed inside of the access covers and help prevent
water intrusion into the electronics compartment. The curtains are made of weather resistant waterproof
cloth. Seal supports are bonded and riveted to the structure at the forward and top edges of each access

are also secured to the structure and shelves with Velcro on the aft side and bottom edges. Each curtain has
a zippered section that can be opened for access to equipment.

Landing Gear System


The tricycle landing gear consists of a self-centering nose wheel assembly that is non-steerable but has
360° swiveling capability and two main landing gear assemblies that are equipped with hydraulic brakes. All
three gear assemblies are housed in a wheel well. When retracted, doors close to cover the wheel wells to

The normal extension and retraction cycles are electrically-controlled from the cockpit via the landing gear
control handle and are hydraulically-operated using pressure from the second-stage hydraulic system, via
the utility system.
An emergency extension system uses compressed Nitrogen to extend the gear if the normal system
malfunctions.
The main landing gear is equipped with single disc-type brakes that are mechanically-controlled and
hydraulically-operated. A mechanically-controlled parking brake is also installed.
The Landing Gear system is comprised of the following subsystems:
Nose Wheel Assembly

Nose Landing Gear Wheel Assembly


The nose landing gear, in conjunction with the main landing gear assemblies, supports the weight of the
helicopter when it is on the ground. The nose wheel and tire assembly, attached to the lower part of the
shock strut piston, is non-steerable but can caster 360° and has a shimmy damper that prevents nose-wheel
shimmy during helicopter ground taxiing.

Figure 23-2: Nose Wheel Assembly

The nose landing gear assembly consists of a shock strut assembly, wheel and tire assembly, drag brace
actuator, and linkages for opening and closing the nose landing gear doors. The drag brace actuator extends
and retracts the nose landing gear. When the actuator piston rod extends, the gear retracts. When the
actuator piston rod retracts, the gear extends.

Nosr Grmu Dumi BumSr ASagmaou


To extend the nose gear, hydraulic pressure connected to the actuator retract port causes the piston to
move aft (retract). Hydraulic pressure connected to the actuator extend port causes the piston to move
forward (extend) which raises the nose gear. Two spring-loaded keepers inside the actuator operate two
sets of locking keys to secure the landing gear in the uplocked and downlocked positions. The keys engage
alternate ends of the cylinder until hydraulic pressure is applied to the actuator.
The uplock keeper and downlock keeper rods act as targets for the proximity sensors. When the nose landing
gear is down and locked, the downlock sensor senses the position of the downlock keeper rod (target) and
electrically sends a signal to illuminate the green nose landing gear indicator light on the landing gear panel.
When the nose landing gear is up, the uplock sensor senses the position of the uplock keeper rod (target)
and electrically sends a signal to turn off the red UNLKD indicator light on the landing gear panel provided
the main landing gear are also up and locked.

A shuttle valve is at the top of the nose landing gear actuator and at the end of each main landing gear
actuator. The emergency landing gear extend pneumatic line and the landing gear extend hydraulic line
connect to opposite sides of the shuttle valve. Under normal hydraulic system operation, the shuttle valve

emergency system is actuated, the shuttle will close the hydraulic ports to prevent nitrogen pressure
from entering the hydraulic system and to allow the nitrogen pressure to enter the actuator to extend the
landing gear.

An electrically operated and normally closed nose gear shut off valve is located in the right main gear wheel
well. The valve isolates the up side of the nose landing gear actuator whenever the landing gear handle is

the actuator only. This prevents buildup of back pressure on the up side of the actuator, which could cause
inadvertent retraction of the nose landing gear.
The only time that the valve is open is when the nose landing gear is in transit up.

The nose landing gear doors are made of aluminum honeycombed material. The doors are hinged to each
side of the nose gear wheel well structure. Each door hinges outboard simultaneously when the nose landing
gear is extended, and hinges inward when the nose landing gear is retracted. The doors are controlled
through mechanical linkages attached to each side of the nose landing gear strut and to each side of the
nose wheel well structure. When the nose gear is retracted, the doors close and cover the nose wheel well

The main landing gear is installed on each side of the fuselage just aft of the cabin. Each main landing gear
consists of a shock strut, drag brace assembly, wheel and tire assembly, brake assembly, retraction actuator,
and linkages for opening and closing each main landing gear door. Each main landing gear is normally
operated hydraulically by the actuator. Hydraulic pressure for operation of the main landing gear system is
provided by the second-stage hydraulic system, via the utility system. The main landing gear is mechanically
self-locking in both the extended and retracted positions. The main wheel and tire assembly and the brake

gear doors are opened as the gear is extended and closed as the gear is retracted. Operation of the doors is
controlled by the door operating linkages attached to the main landing gear drag brace assembly.

The main landing gear actuator is used to extend and retract the main landing gear. Hydraulic pressure is
connected to one port of the shuttle valve and is used to extend the main landing gear. Hydraulic pressure is
connected to the port on the actuator assembly and is used to retract the landing gear. The actuator piston
rod retracts to raise the main landing gear, and the rod extends to lower the main landing gear.
A pneumatic port on the shuttle valve allows for connection of the landing gear pneumatic system hose,
which is connected to the emergency landing gear system. The shuttle valve works the same as in the nose

When the helicopter’s weight is off the wheels, the positioning rod angles upward and the weight-on-wheels
sensor senses its target. When the sensor senses it target, the electrical circuit to the up side of the landing
gear control valve is electrically connected, allowing the landing gear to be selected to the up (retracted)
position. The weight-on-wheels sensor is also electrically connected to the hydraulics servo jam warning
system and the engine-out audible warning system.
Optional installations may electrically connect the weight-on-wheels sensor to the weather radar, passenger

Landing Gear Control and Indicating Systems


The landing gear controls and landing gear position indicator lights are on the control/indicator panel marked
LDG GEAR, on the right lower side of the instrument panel.
Two landing gear control handles are on the control/indicator panel; one marked NORMAL with positions
UP and DN, the other marked EMER DN with a T-handle labeled TURN & PULL. Three green position
indicator lights marked L (Left), N (Nose), and R (Right), and a red position indicator light marked UNLKD,
are also installed in the panel. The NORMAL control in UP or DN selects normal retraction or extension
(hydraulically-operated) of the main and nose landing gear.
The EMER DN T-handle controls emergency extension (pneumatically-operated) of the landing gear, in case
of a second stage hydraulic system malfunction.
The red UNLKD position indicator light will be on whenever the landing gear is in the retraction or extension
cycle, or whenever one or more landing gear assemblies are not locked in the position corresponding to the
position of the landing gear control handle. Each green position indicator light will be on only when the control
handle is at DN and the corresponding landing gear assembly is down and locked. All four lights go on when
the caution/advisory panel TEST button is depressed.
When the EMER DN T-handle is actuated to TURN & PULL, nitrogen is discharged from the 3,000 PSI
charged container, in the electronics compartment, into the system, to pressurize the down side of the landing
gear actuator pistons, thus lowering the landing gear.

The bottle manifold has a pressure gauge, charge valve, pressure relief valve, T-handle , arm, and system
discharge and vent ports. The emergency extension system is used to lower the nose and main landing gear
in case of hydraulic system malfunction. The emergency extension system is actuated by turning and pulling
the T-handle, which pulls the bottle arm through a cable and linkage, opening the valve of the bottle and
allowing nitrogen to be released, under pressure, to the landing gear actuators, extending the landing gear.
A shuttle valve on each landing gear actuator closes the normally open hydraulic ports, allowing the
pressurized nitrogen to enter the actuator without getting nitrogen into the hydraulic system. The actuators
are vented to the hydraulic system return through the landing gear control valve, thus preventing a hydraulic
system lock.

Landing Gear Warning System
The LDG GEAR UP warning lights on the instrument panel illuminate when the landing gear is retracted
and airspeed drops below approximately 60 Kts (40 Kts in some aircraft with phase II AFCS, depending
upon which airspeed switch is installed). Simultaneously, an audible 250-Hz intermittent tone sounds in
the headsets. The tone may be silenced and reset by depressing either LDG GEAR UP warning capsule,
increasing the airspeed, or extending the landing gear.

The altitude code output is active whenever the Accessory Unit is receiving 28 VDC from its circuit breaker
and valid ARINC 429 data from the associated Digital Airdata Unit.
The landing gear warning circuit monitors weight-on-wheels logic, radio altimeter 250 ft trip, radio altimeter
DH, airspeed (from the pilot’s airdata computer), and self-test/reset logic.
At lift off, weight-on-wheels logic is removed; this arms the initial warning mode. If the landing gear is retracted
prior to attaining 60 Kts airspeed or climbing above 250 ft radio altitude, the LDG GEAR UP annunciators will
illuminate steady and no tone will be heard.
After reaching 60 Kts airspeed or 250 ft radio altitude, the second warning mode will be armed. If the airspeed
decreases below 60 Kts or the rotorcraft descends below the radio altimeter decision height (with the landing
gear retracted), the LDG GEAR UP annunciators will illuminate steady and the warning tone will sound.
Pressing either annunciator will cancel the tone; the annunciators will stay illuminated.

This chapter describes the powerplants installed in the S76 C++ helicopter. The powerplant system consists
of two removable power packages mounted side-by side in the engine compartment, aft of the transmission
compartment. Each power package consists of a TURBOMECA ARRIEL 2S2 engine supports, air inlet,
exhaust pipe and prolongator, oil cooler blower, starter/generator, engine driveshaft, fuel and lubrication
lines, and a wiring harness.

Engines
Two TURBOMECA ARRIEL 2S2 engines, with a dual-engine takeoff rating of 922 SHP each and a single-
engine rating of 1,033 SHP, are mounted aft of the main gear box. The power turbine of each engine is
connected to the main gear box with separate input shafts. The main gear box input shafts contain the
freewheel units.
Each engine is made up of the following 5 modules:
M01 - Accessory gear box
M02 - Axial compressor

M04 - Power turbine


M05 - Reduction gear box
Each module sub-assembly forms an independent unit. Once assembled and inspected, no adaptation work
is necessary to install it on any engine. The modular design enables to operator to inspect, and change, if
necessary, individual modules of the engine. This eliminates the requirement to send the entire engine to an
overhaul facility for repairs. Modules M04 and M05 can be changed without engine removal.
Non-modular items are the exhaust pipe, adapting parts, and certain accessories.

Sikorsky S76 C++ For Training Purposes Only 26-3


March 2013
The engine control is a dual channel Digital Engine Control Unit (DECU) for each engine that controls the
start sequence, normal operation, and emergency operation of the engine. The DECU is normally powered

in the event of alternator failure but is the primary source during startup, idle, and shutdown or other regimes
where gas generator speed is less than 60.0% N1.
Ice protection is provided by a bleed-air anti-icing system. The engines are started electrically using
starter-generators.

Engine Operating Principles
The engine provides power by transforming the energy in the air and fuel into mechanical energy which is
transmitted to the main gear box via a transmission shaft.
The process comprises compression, combustion, expansion and the transmission of the power.

is increased by the axial and centrifugal compressors and then directed to the combustion chamber. The

fuel-air mixture is ignited by two high-energy igniter plugs and allowed to expand. The expanding gases
move through the combustion chamber and enter the turbine section where the gases are forced through gas
producer and power turbine wheels causing them to turn. The single axial N1 gas producer turbine extracts
energy from the expanding gases to drive the compressor and the N1 accessory gear train. The single-stage
N2 power turbine extracts energy from the remaining combustion gases to drive the power shaft and oil cooler
blower. The excess combustion gases from the turbine are then expelled through the exhaust outlet.

A compressor bleed valve is installed on the compressor section to prevent compressor stalls at low engine
speeds. At low gas generator speed the axial stage of the compressor produces more air than the centrifugal
stage of the compressor can handle. In the open position, the bleed valve discharges this excess volume
of axial compressor air (P2.4). The bleed valve automatically closes at high gas generator speeds when the
centrifugal compressor can utilize all of the air.

Figure 26-8: Bleed Valve

The bleed valve is controlled by the compression ratio (P3/PO). The valve does not modulate, it is either open
or closed.

A green “BV” indication for each engine is displayed above the N1 column on the IIDS. When the BV is visible,
the bleed valve is open. The bleed valve should be open below 80% N1 and closed above 98% N1. The N1
speed at valve opening depends on OAT, with higher closing N1 speeds at higher temperatures.

not interchangeable, but function similarly. The inlet of each shutoff valve is connected to its respective engine
compressor. The outlet of each valve is connected to one common welded tube which routes bleed-air to a
mixing valve, where bleed-air and ambient air are mixed and pneumatically controlled. The bleed air shutoff
valves receive electrical power from the No. 1 and No. 2 DC primary buses via the respective BLEED AIR
circuit breakers.

The shutoff valves are solenoid-controlled pneumatic valves that are normally in the open position. The
valves also contain an inline check valve that is spring loaded closed. With the solenoid de-energized, the
check valve will open when the inlet pressure exceeds 5 PSI. With the solenoid energized, the check valve

low pressure switches. The system is turned on after both engines are operating by placing the BLEED AIR
switch, on the HEATER CONTROL panel, ON which de-energizes the valves allowing them to open. When
both shutoff valves open they provide the required amount of bleed-air for proper system operation. If No. 1
or No. 2 engine bleed-air pressure drops to 7 PSI or below or if system pressure drops to 7 PSI or below for
5 seconds or more, the engine or system low pressure switches will close supplying electrical power to close
the valves. If the downstream pressure becomes greater than inlet pressure, a built-in check valve will close,

There are two N1 signals for each engine: N1 and N1C. The N1 signal is sent to the DECUs via the No. 1
and No. 2 dual channel alternators. The DECU applies a bias to the signal for temperature and altitude, and
sends it to the IIDS. The N1C signal is sent directly to IIDS via the No. 1 and No. 2 N1 speed sensor magnetic
pickups. The N1C signal is raw and is not biased for temperature and altitude; therefore, the IIDS conducts
a biasing equation. During normal operation, the N1 signal is used. If the N1 signal is not available, the N1C
signal is used as the backup.

The engine oil temperature/pressure indicating systems provide a constant visual indication of oil temperature
and oil pressure of the engines. Each system consists of a temperature sensor mounted to the bottom of the
oil reservoir, a pressure transmitter mounted on the engine oil manifold, and the engine oil temperature and
pressure indications presented as digital numerical readouts above dual analog vertical color bars on an IIDS
display panel. The temperature sensor senses the temperature of the oil before it enters the engine oil inlet
line and sends an electrical signal to the indicator. The pressure transmitter measures oil pressure from the
oil pressure sensing port in the engine accessory box manifold and sends an electrical signal to the indicator.
Electrical power for the engine oil pressure transmitters and for the temperature sensors is supplied by IIDS.

Engine Control Quadrant


The engine control quadrant, centered overhead in the cockpit, permits either the pilot or copilot to control

covers, information panels, two engine control levers, two fuel selector valve control levers, and two engine

NO.1 and NO.2 Engine Power Control Levers (ECL) on the engine control quadrant are connected electrically
to the DECUs. The engine control lever quadrant has three marked positions for normal operation: STOP,
IDLE, and FLY. Two stops limit the travel of the lever. The upper stop at the FLY gate limits forward travel of
the ECL, and establishes the FLY gate. The lower stop establishes ground IDLE and prevents inadvertent

transmit ECL position to the DECU.


The starter buttons in the knob of each ECL provide DC power to the starter and ignition systems for each
engine. To perform a start, the MASTER START switch must be ON, the engine lever moved from STOP
to IDLE and the starter button is momentarily depressed. The DECU controls ignition, fuel introduction and
scheduling to maintain T5 within start limits. The start is aborted by depressing the trigger and retarding
the lever to the STOP position. Dry venting is accomplished in STOP by depressing the start button for the
duration desired and releasing.

The digital engine control system consists of No. 1 and No. 2 Digital Engine Control Units (DECUs)
located in the tail cone and associated wiring. The DECUs have two channels: Channel A (CH A) and Channel
B (CH B). CH A is the active channel controlling the engine and CH B is the backup channel. The system
interfaces with three Integrated Instrument Display System (IIDS) display units located on the instrument
panel, and a Remote Data Acquisition Unit (RDAU) located in the transition section. The No. 1 and No. 2
DECUs interface with each other for redundancy and backup to control and monitor the operation of the No.
1 and No. 2 engines respectively. The DECUs process inputs from the collective stick transducer, outside air
temperature probe, weight-on-wheels relay, and engine sensors; and provide functional interface with the
gas generator RPM indicating system, power turbine inlet temperature indicating system, torque indicating
system, fuel system, engine start and ignition system, One Engine Inoperative (OEI) select system, One

The 2S2 Engine has a dual channel alternator. Channel A of the alternator is associated with channel A
of the DECU. Channel B of the alternator is associated with channel B of the DECU. Each channel of the
alternator provides power and an N1 signal to the associated channel of the DECU. The signal produced
by the alternator is in the form of AC voltage, whose frequency at 100% N1 is 12180.18 RPM. The DECU
processes the signal to determine N1 speed that is used for start fuel control and speed control.

Overspeed Protection
The DECU includes a power turbine overspeed protection System. This system will shut down the engine if
the power turbine speed reaches a certain limit (122.5 ± 1 % N2).
The shut-down must be achieved fast enough to prevent internal engine damage.

Re-arming
Once operated the system remains in the overspeed condition until it is re-armed, either by a push button or
by switching off the power to the DECU.

The system is designed to prevent both engines being shut down by their overspeed systems.
This is achieved by a cross connection between the two systems, when one engine overspeed system
operates it inhibits the operation of the other engine system.

System Indication
The overspeed system supplies signals of its state: armed, disarmed, overspeed, failure.

Fault Detection
A test circuit simulates an overspeed in order to verify the correct operation. The test is selected by pressing
a push button. The rearming and test system is located in the rear fuselage.

the limiting parameter or where one engine may be torque limited while the other engine is N1 limited, the
normal load sharing of N1 may become split in order to enable each engine to achieve its maximum output
at the takeoff power limit, whether torque or N1. As power is reduced from the takeoff power limit in this case,
the load sharing readily reverts back to N1. Limiting at the single engine ratings follows the same trend of
being a torque function at the cooler temperatures and lower altitudes and an N1 function at all other ambient
combinations. There is no need for automatic limiting of T5 5

cannot exceed the limit value at any of the
ratings.

Soft Limiting
Dual engine limiting at the takeoff power N1 limit includes a soft limiter logic that allows for minor excursions
above and below the limit.. If more power is needed to maintain the 107% reference speed than is available
at the limit, the soft limiter allows a minor transient excursion to 100.5% N1 the DECU immediately begins
reducing to the 100.0% limit at 0.1% N1 per-second. The soft limiter logic is reset, and 100.5% N1 is again
transiently available if a complementary drop in power required results in N1 decreasing to 99.9%.
The soft limiter will only allow one excursion above 100.0% if the collective position is maintained at the
limiter and rotor droop occurs. The N1 stays at 100.0% in this case and will not decrease to 99.9% or below
until rotor speed has been restored to the 107%.
Dual engine limiting at the takeoff power torque limit includes a ramping function that applies an additional
1% torque for each 1% NR droop below 106% NR. This accommodates the effects of limiter saturation
and resultant rotor droop that occurs when power demanded (collective position) continues to exceed the
Take off power torque limit. The maximum torque allowed by the logic is 105% torque which is reached at
approximately 101% NR.

Blow Away Power
Blow away power is an escape logic that removes the takeoff limiter in extreme instances where increased
power beyond the takeoff power limit is required for safe operation.
Blow away can be activated in either of two ways:
Slow to moderate NR decay to 100%
Excessive NR decay >5% per second to 104%
Logic resets over a 10 second period after NR is restored above 106%.

Figure 26-63: Blow Away when Torque Limited (Low Temperatures

Blow away logic replaces the 100% TQ takeoff limit and establishes a new limit of 115% torque.

Figure 26-64: Blow Away when N1 Limited (Warm Temperatures)

Blow away logic replaces the 100% N1 takeoff limit with the 2-minute single engine limit of 100.5% N1.
Blow away may be expected to result in 2-Minute N1 usage, and therefore, time added to the cumulative
2-minute counters.

The DECU accomplishes engine limiting by controlling fuel metering. A dual-channel stepper motor operates
the fuel metering valve in response to signals from the DECU. A metering unit resolver provides feedback by
relaying the metering valve position back to the DECU. Channel A of the DECU activates channel A of the
stepper motor, and channel B of the DECU activates channel B of the stepper motor. Channel A is the default
or normal channel for the DECU. A level 3 fault in Channel A of the DECU will cause that channel to become
inactive and control of the DECU will be taken over by Channel B.

During normal operation, DECU channel “A” controls fuel metering.

and handling point of view, the dual engine power provided when selected in dual training is similarly rationed,
and all normal DECU features such as single speed 107% governing, load sharing, limiting, and dual engine

Both N1 and torque indications are biased to appear correct at the limits; T5
either dual engine limit is reached, N1 will indicate 100% in the ambient conditions where the engine would
normally be expected to be N1 limited, or torque will indicate 100% in correspondingly colder temperatures.
When against the limit, the application of additional collective will result in rotor droop.
Similarly, during OEI operation with one engine selected to training idle, N1 or torque of the other engine will
indicate correctly at the limit selected when power required is commanded to the limit by collective input. With
respect to N1 and torque indications, DECU features and characteristics, and apparent handling response,
accurate training is preserved while limiting engine power to 100% N1 or less. The helicopter, loaded to the

provisions for manual engine starting


Power Source: The starter/generators provide the torque to start an engine when supplied by a DC power
source. Electrical power for engine starting may come from the battery, external power, or from the opposite

by the DC ESS bus through the NO. 1 ENG STR CONT, the NO. 2 ENG STR CONT, the MSTR START, and
AUTO RUN circuit breakers on the lower circuit breaker panel. After the engines are running, the starter/
generators are driven by the engines and are the primary source of electrical power.

NOTE: When power is applied to the aircraft the DECUs perform a self-test sequence, which
requires about 15 seconds to complete. Do not attempt to start the engine(s) before this test
is completed since doing so will abort the test and might create a DECU fault condition or
allow degraded operation.

Engine Automatic Start


Before initiating a start of the engine: the engine control levers must be in the stop position prior to the battery
being turned on, the MASTER START switch is placed to ON, the ENG CONT AUTO/MAN switch located
on the overhead control panel is placed to AUTO, and the engine control lever of the engine to be started is
placed to IDLE or FLY (27% throttle minimum).
To initiate a start, the momentary start button is pressed and released which momentarily closes the circuit
between the 5 VOLT output and the START INIT input of the DECU. The 5 VOLT output and START INIT
input are interlocked to inhibit the opposite engine from being started during the start sequence.
The start contacts apply DC power through the ENG STR CONT circuit breaker to the start electro-valve and

electro-valve latches it to the run position.


When N1 reaches about 45% N1, the DECU de-energizes the engine start control and reconnects 28 VDC

RUN input of the stop electro valve, but the valve will remain latched in the run position and continue to supply

DC power is disconnected from the ignition unit, suspending its operation, and from the start electro-valves,

After starting, the starter-generator is driven by N1 and serves as the primary source of DC power.
The DECU controls ignition, fuel introduction, and scheduling to maintain T5 within start limits (the pilot
is responsible for preventing hot starts). Starter dropout at approximately 48% N1 is automatic. Ignition is
provided only during the starting cycle. The start is aborted by depressing the trigger and retarding the lever
to the STOP position. Dry venting is accomplished in STOP by depressing the start button for the duration
desired and releasing.
Starter use limits vary depending on whether or not fuel ignition (light-off) occurs in the engine. With fuel
ignition, the starter limits are: a 60 second start attempt, a 60- Second interval, and then a 60 second start
attempt followed by a 15 minute interval. Repeat cycle. Without fuel ignition the limits are a 30 second
engagement, a 30 second interval, a 30 second engagement, followed by a 15 minute interval. Repeat cycle.
The duration of a normal start is 15 to 30 seconds.

Variable Runup Control
The DECU will only increase N1 from ground IDLE speed when N2 exceeds 9%. When N2 exceeds 9%, the
pilot may manually control engine acceleration with the ECL, by slowly advancing it from IDLE to FLY. If the
ECL is moved rapidly to the FLY gate, the DECU controls engine acceleration, maintaining N1
TGT within limits. In FLY, the DECU governs the engine N2 at 107%.

General Description
The Main Gear Box (MGB) is located on the transmission deck in front of the engines. A freewheel unit at
each engine input connects the engine to the main gear box and allows for engine disengagement when the
main rotor RPM is higher than the relative engine RPM. The main rotor driveshaft extends upward from the
main gear box to drive the main rotor system.
The tail rotor driveshaft transmits torque from the main gear box to the tail rotor through the intermediate
gear box.
The Intermediate Gear Box (IGB) is mounted at the base of the vertical stabilizer. It transmits torque to the
tail rotor and changes the drive angle of the tail rotor driveshaft approximately 57°.
The Tail rotor Gear Box (TGB) is mounted at the upper end of the vertical stabilizer. It transmits torque to the
tail rotor and changes the drive angle 90°. The tail rotor gear box also reduces RPM approximately 50% from
the driveshaft input to the output to the tail rotor.
A rotor brake system is available to stop the rotors and allow the engines to be started without the rotor
blades turning.

The Main Rotor Gear Box (MGB) changes the horizontal drive generated from the engines to a
vertical drive for the main rotor shaft and provides the drive output for the tail rotor driveshaft. Housed
within the main rotor gear box are a series of reduction gears which provide three stages of reduction
to decrease the RPM of the engine input from 6,409.3 RPM to the main rotor driveshaft output of
313.5 RPM. The reduction gears also reduce the engine RPM from 6,409.3 to the tail rotor driveshaft output of
3,491.2 RPM. The main rotor driveshaft extends vertically from the MGB with an angle of 5° forward tilt to

An engine drive input or freewheeling units allow the engine to drive the main rotor gear box. The freewheeling
units permit disengagement of engines from the main rotor gear box when the main rotor RPM is higher than
the engine RPM as it would be during autorotation or in the event of a single engine failure.
The S76 helicopter uses a ramp/roller type freewheeling unit. Steel rollers are encased between a series of
ramps that are attached to the engine driveshaft and an outer race that is attached to the transmission drive.
When torque is applied to the engine driveshaft, the rotation forces the rollers to ride up the ramp, which
results in a connection between an engine driveshaft and the outer race.
In instances where the outer race is moving faster than the engine drive shaft, the rollers ride down the ramp
so that the outer race is free to turn without connection to the engine drive shaft. This allows the rotor to
turn without drag from a failed engine and prevents transmission torque from being transmitted back to the
engine.

Rotor Brake
There are two optional rotor brake systems:
Electrical Rotor Brake System (S76 A/A+/A++)
Manual Rotor Brake (A+, A++, B, C+, C++)
The optional rotor brake system is available to keep the rotor blades from turning when parked, to allow the
helicopter engines to be started without the rotor blades turning, and to assist in stopping the rotor blades
during engine shutdown. The rotor brake system acts upon a rotating disc that is attached to the tail rotor

by a caliper to press against both sides of the disc. Friction causes the rotating disc to slow and eventually
stop.

ElrSauFS Roaou Bumkr ysare


The electrical rotor brake system consists of a dedicated hydraulic pump, control valve, and reservoir.
The system is controlled by a rotor brake switch on the console master switch panel. The system receives
electrical power from the battery bus or the No.1 DC primary via two circuit breakers marked ROTOR BRAKE
PWR that are located on the DC junction box in the electrical compartment.

Electric Rotor Brake Hydraulic Unit


The electric rotor brake hydraulic unit is mounted on the upper left portion of the main transmission. The unit

checked by viewing the reservoir sight gauge marked: “FULL”, “REFILL”, and “EMPTY”.

Figure 27-14: Electric Rotor Brake Hydraulic Unit

Sikorsky S76 For Training Purposes Only 27-25


March 2013
Operation
The ROTOR BRAKE switch has three positions marked ON-OFF-REL. The rotor brake will not go on unless
both engines are at idle or below and the N1 of at least one engine is at 59% or below (one engine out light
on). When the switch is placed ON with the rotor blades turning and the above conditions met, the pump
will initially build up hydraulic pressure to approximately 200 PSI to stop the rotor blades. Five seconds
after the rotor blades stop, or, if the switch is placed ON with the rotor blades stopped, hydraulic pressure
is automatically increased to approximately 430 PSI to prevent the blades from moving while the aircraft is
parked. An accumulator in the system will hold this pressure for approximately 8 hours.
If hydraulic pressure decreases while the aircraft is parked and the ROTOR BRAKE switch is in the ON
position, the pump will automatically activate to restore pressure in the system.
The REL switch position is a momentary position which opens the control valve and releases hydraulic
pressure to allow the rotor blades to turn. When the switch is released, it will move to the OFF position and
the rotor brake system will be de-energized.
With power ON, the rotor brake will automatically release if the switch is in the OFF position and the ROTOR
BRAKE caution light is illuminated. The ROTOR BRAKE caution light is activated by a pressure switch which
activates the light when the system pressure is above 15 PSI.

Operation
The manual rotor brake system is controlled by the master cylinder handle in the cockpit. Applying two
strokes of the rotor brake handle produces a minimum of 200 PSI of hydraulic pressure, which activates
opposing lined pistons in both brake assemblies. This provides a clamping action on the rotating brake disc.
After the rotor is stopped, additional strokes of the rotor brake handle can be applied to obtain a maximum of
300 ± 30 PSI, at which the pressure relief valve will open. The accumulator will maintain a pressure of
approximately 225 PSI (closing pressure of relief valve) to prevent the rotors from turning when the helicopter
is parked.

Combination chip detection/temperature sensor units are located in the sump of each gearbox. The chip
detectors receive power from the DC essential bus via the I/TGB CHIP DET circuit breaker and incorporate
an automatic fuzz burn feature which eliminates small particles that could give a false indication. If a chip is
unable to be burned off, the relay for the chip detector is energized and the appropriate CHIP/HOT capsule
is illuminated. The CHIP/HOT capsules will also illuminate whenever the respective gearbox oil temperature
rises above 140°C. When a CHIP/HOT capsule is illuminated due to an over temperature condition, the
automatic fuzz burn feature is disabled. Once the capsule is illuminated, a holding circuit will keep the capsule
illuminated until power is removed by pulling the I/TGB CHIP DET circuit breaker or until the electrical system
is shut down.

Rotor Brake Limitations
ElrSauFS Roaou Bumkr LFeFamaFons
Engine operation with rotor at idle speed is limited to:
Blades at 45° to Long Axis:
Unrestricted
Other Blade Positions:
Unrestricted when:
No tailwind component
Only one engine at idle speed
OAT at 37°C or below

Normal Stopping
One engine must be off, the other engine must be at idle speed or below. The rotor brake should not be
applied until rotor speed has decreased below 65% NR.
OTE: NR indication determines whether the pump applies 200 or 430 PSI. In the event of an NR
indication failure with the NR indicating zero, application of the rotor brake must be avoided
because the pump will apply 430 PSI.

OTE: A rotor shutdown using the rotor brake shall not be performed more than one time in any
10-minute period.

Powertrain

Mmngml Roaou Bumkr LFeFamaFons mnd OprumaFni PurSmgaFons


Rotor brake application is limited to one or two engines operating at idle or both engines shut down.
Normal NR for rotor brake application with one or both engines at idle or both engines shut down is 40%
to 60% NR.
Maximum rotor speed for rotor brake application is 65% NR.
Maximum rotor speed for emergency rotor brake application is 107% NR when both engines are shut
down.
Engine operation with rotor stopped (rotor brake applied) is limited to one or both engines operating at
idle.
A rotor stop using the rotor brake shall not be performed more than once in any 10-minute period.
With one or both engines operating and the rotor is stopped, the main rotor blades must be positioned at
approximately 45° to the longitudinal axis of the helicopter.
Maximum manual rotor brake application is not recommended when commenced below 30% NR. Brake
applications begun at less than 30% NR should be light enough to produce a smooth and gentle stop.
Sudden stoppage of rotor blades exposes components to abnormal forces that may cause damage.
If rotors should begin to turn during engine start with rotor brake ON, shut down the engines or release
the rotor brake. Refer to Rotorcraft Flight Manual (RFM) for emergency procedures.
If the ROTOR BRAKE caution capsule illuminates when the rotor brake handle is in OFF detent while the
rotors are turning on the ground, shut down the engines and troubleshoot the rotor brake system.

Although the rotor brake is capable of holding the rotor with both engines at ground idle, personnel must
be alert to the possibility of a rotor strike because brake slippage or release allows the rotors to turn. Treat
the rotors as if they were turning whenever an engine is running.
