SUBTASK 34-10-00-170-061-A
A. Cleaning of the Pitot Probe-Drain Holes (for the Thales Pitot Probes)
(1) Use the NITROGEN COMPRESSED SOURCE 2 BAR (29 PSI) - DRY to blow the nitrogen gas
for approximately three minutes through the hose at a pressure of 2 -0.35 bar or +0.35 bar (29 -5
psi or +5 psi). At the same time:
(a) Clean the drain holes of pitot probe 1(2, 3) with the CLEANER-PITOT PROBE (
98D34103004001) and:
- The WIRE - NYLON diameter 0.7 MM (0.0276 IN.)
, then
- The WIRE - NYLON diameter 0.8 MM (0.0315 IN.).
1 Use the WIRE - NYLON with a length of minimum 5 mm (0.1969 in.) to make sure
that the metal tool element does not touch and cause damage to pitot probe 1(2, 3).
(2) Make sure that there is no contamination in the pressurized nitrogen gas at the outlet of pitot
probe 1(2, 3):
(a) Make sure that pressurized nitrogen gas comes out of the pitot probe inlet (there is no
internal blockage).
(b) If the nitrogen gas does not come out of the pitot probe inlet, replace the pitot probe Ref.
AMM TASK 34-11-15-000-001 and Ref. AMM TASK 34-11-15-400-001.
(3) Stop the flow of the nitrogen gas.
(4) Disconnect the NITROGEN COMPRESSED SOURCE 2 BAR (29 PSI) - DRY.
(5) Disconnect the FLUSHING TOOL-PITOT PROBE (98F34103003000) from pitot probe 1(2, 3).
(6) Connect the quick-disconnect coupling to pitot probe 1(2, 3).
(7) Make sure that you can see the blue ring on the quick-disconnect coupling.
(8) Pull the quick-disconnect coupling to make sure that it is correctly attached.
(9) Make sure that the quick-disconnect coupling is correctly engaged (the pin on the quick-
disconnect male part is fully engaged into the groove in the quick-disconnect female part).
Ref. Fig. Check of the Quick-Disconnect Coupling
SUBTASK 34-10-00-170-062-A
B. Cleaning of the Pitot Probe-Drain Holes (for the Rosemount Aerospace and Goodrich Pitot Probes)
(1) Use the NITROGEN COMPRESSED SOURCE 2 BAR (29 PSI) - DRY to blow the nitrogen gas
for approximately three minutes through the hose at a pressure of 2 -0.35 bar or +0.35 bar (29 -5
psi or +5 psi). At the same time:
(a) Clean the drain holes of pitot probe 1(2, 3) with the CLEANER-PITOT PROBE (
98D34103004001) and:
- The WIRE - NYLON diameter 0.6 mm (0.024 in.)
, then
- The WIRE - NYLON diameter 0.7 MM (0.0276 IN.).
1 Use the WIRE - NYLON with a length of minimum 5 mm (0.1969 in.) to make sure
that the metal tool element does not touch and cause damage to pitot probe 1(2, 3).
(2) Make sure that there is no contamination in the pressurized nitrogen gas at the outlet of pitot
probe 1(2, 3):
(a) Make sure that pressurized nitrogen gas comes out of the pitot probe inlet (there is no
internal blockage).

34-10-00-170-004-A - Cleaning of 1 out of 3 Pitot Probes

If the nitrogen gas does not come out of the pitot probe inlet, replace the pitot probe Ref.
AMM TASK 34-11-15-000-001 and Ref. AMM TASK 34-11-15-400-001.
(3) Stop the flow of the nitrogen gas.
(4) Disconnect the NITROGEN COMPRESSED SOURCE 2 BAR (29 PSI) - DRY.
(5) Disconnect the FLUSHING TOOL-PITOT PROBE (98F34103003000) from pitot probe 1(2, 3).
(6) Connect the quick-disconnect coupling to pitot probe 1(2, 3).
(7) Make sure that you can see the blue ring on the quick-disconnect coupling.
(8) Pull the quick-disconnect coupling to make sure that it is correctly attached.
(9) Make sure that the quick-disconnect coupling is correctly engaged (the pin on the quick-
disconnect male part is fully engaged into the groove in the quick-disconnect female part).

SUBTASK 34-10-00-170-058-A
C. After the Cleaning Procedure

WARNING: IF YOU DISCONNECT PITOT PROBE 3, OR IF YOU DISCONNECT MORE THAN

ONE PITOT PROBE, MAKE SURE THAT A SECOND QUALIFIED MECHANIC DOES
A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE QUICK-DISCONNECT COUPLING CONNECTIONS.
THE TWO MECHANICS MUST SIGN OFF THE JOB.
(1) Refer to the table that follows to know if you must do two checks of the quick-disconnect
couplings and/or the leak test:

Condition Two Checks of the Quick- Leak Test

Disconnect Couplings
One pitot drain-hole cleaning No No
ADR 1 or ADR 2
More than one pitot drain- Yes No
hole cleaning or ADR 3 drain-
hole cleaning

(a) If you must do two checks of the quick-disconnect coupling:

- Tell a second qualified mechanic to do a visual inspection of the quick-disconnect
coupling (the signature of the two mechanics is mandatory).
- Make sure that the quick-disconnect coupling is correctly engaged (the pin located
on the quick-disconnect male part must be fully engaged into the groove in the
quick-disconnect female part).
Ref. Fig. Check of the Quick-Disconnect Coupling
(2) Install the aircraft protection equipment, if necessary Ref. AMM TASK 10-11-00-555-013.
