DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AIR CONDITIONING The air conditioning system is fully automatic. Bleed air passes through two pack flow control valves and is directed to two air conditioning packs. The cold air output from the packs enters a common mixing chamber, where it is combined with filtered cabin air that is supplied by recirculation fans. From the mixing unit, the air is distributed to the flight deck, forward cabin, and aft cabin zones. The temperature of the air delivered by the packs is determined by the zone requiring the coolest air.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Air Conditioning Packs Pneumatic manifold air must first pass through a flow control valve. The valve is electrically controlled and pneumatically operated, and regulates the air flow according to signals received from the pack controller. The flow control valve automatically closes for low air pressure, pack overheat, engine starting, ditching, or when the engine fire switch is released. The hot air that passes through the flow control valve is either ducted through a hot air pressure regulating valve to the trim air valves or to the primary heat exchanger. The air passing through the primary heat exchanger is cooled and then routed to the air cycle machine (ACM) where it is further cooled and then distributed to the mixing unit. The pack controller regulates the temperature according to the zone controller demand by modulating the flow control valve and bypass valve as well as the ram air inlet and outlet flaps. The zone controller modulates the airflow through the trim air valves to optimize flight deck and cabin temperature regulation. Pack Controllers The two packs operate automatically and independently of each other. Each pack is regulated by its respective dual channel controller. The pack controller receives

The ram air inlet flap closes automatically during takeoff and landing to prevent ingestion of debris. Ram Air In the event of a dual pack failure or for smoke removal, ventilation can be obtained by a ram air inlet. When the RAM AIR switch is selected ON, the ram air inlet valve opens and ram air is supplied to the mixing unit, provided the DITCHING switch is not selected ON. To enhance ventilation, the outflow valve also opens when the differential pressure is less than 1 psi if the CABIN PRESS MODE SEL is in AUTO. Lavatory and Galley Ventilation The lavatories and galleys are ventilated by cabin air which is extracted by a fan near the outflow valve. The fan runs continuously when electrical power is available. Since the cabin temperature sensors are ventilated by the lav/galley extract fan, the sensors would not detect an accurate temperature if the extract fan failed. If this occurs, flight deck temperature regulation remains normal. If the extract fan fails, the cabin temperature is fixed at 59°F.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Avionics Ventilation The avionics ventilation system provides cooling air for the avionics compartment, flight deck instruments, and circuit breaker panels. The system uses two electric fans to force circulation of the cooling air. The fans operate continuously in normal configurations. Outside air is admitted through a skin air inlet valve. The warm air from the avionics equipment passes through an extract fan where it is either extracted overboard, directed under the cargo compartment, or recirculated through a skin heat exchanger. An avionics equipment ventilation computer controls the fans and valves. The system has three normal operational configurations determined by ground/ flight modes, and airplane skin temperature. The configurations are: - Open (on the ground only), - Closed (on the ground and in flight), - Intermediate (in flight only). In addition to the normal operational configurations, abnormal and smoke configurations also exist.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AIR COOLING The fresh air quantity for air conditioning is defined by heating and cooling requirements. Since the bleed air supply is always at a higher temperature than that required for passenger comfort, cooling of this air is accomplished by two air conditioning packs. Each pack includes two heat exchangers which use ambient ram air as a heat sink, and a three-wheel bootstrap air cycle machine (compressor, turbine and fan). The packs also include a high pressure water extractor circuit and a bypass valve. The two heat exchangers are located between the cooling ram-air inlet and outlet. Each inlet and outlet has a regulator flap which operates automatically to control the cooling airflow through the heat exchangers (the inlet flap follows the outlet flap). During takeoff and landing phases, the ram-air doors are closed to prevent ingestion of foreign matter which may damage or contaminate the heat exchangers.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Flow Control and Indicating High pressure air is supplied to the air conditioning system from the main pneumatic system. This air goes through two ozone filters and two flow control valves to two identical, independent air conditioning packs. The flow control valves are installed upstream of the air conditioning packs. The flow control valves control the quantity of air supplied from the pneumatic system to the air conditioning packs. The flow control valves control the airflow fully pneumatically depending on the flow demand and the bleed pressure. The airflow through the flow control valves is selected by the PACK FLOW selector switch and the PACK 1 (2) pushbutton switches. When the PACK 1 (2) push-button switches are pushed (the OFF legends go off) the flow control valves open, if the bleed pressure supply is available. The crew selects the PACK FLOW selector switch to the LO, NORM or HI position. This switch position selects the flow control reference in the zone controller to 80%, 100%, or 120%. The zone controller calculates the necessary flow and transmits this value to the pack controllers. The pack controllers set the flow control valves to the demanded position. When the PACK FLOW selector switch is set to LO and the temperature demand cannot be reached, the zone controller increases the normal airflow of the flow control valve from 80% to 100% automatically.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION When bleed air is supplied from the APU, the zone controller receives the APU bleed valve open signal. The flow control reference in the zone controller is set to 120% and the flow control valves are commanded to the more open position. When the PACK FLOW selector switch is set in the NORM or LO mode and there is a failure in one pack, the zone controller and the pack controllers modulate the other pack automatically in the 120% (HI) mode. Thus the flow control valve is commanded to the more open position. If there is an engine fire and the applicable FIRE push-button switch is pushed, the flow control valves close. This prevents damage that the hot bleed air could cause to the components of the air conditioning system. This also prevents the entry of smoke into the cabin. In case of a landing on water the DITCHING push-button switch must be pushed. This action will close the flow control valves. This prevents water entry through the air conditioning system into the cabin. If the compressor of an air cycle machine overheats, the applicable flow control valve moves to a more closed position. A mixer flap actuator operates a flap in the flight deck supply port of the mixer. The

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION flap connects the flight deck supply duct to the pack 1 mixer chamber during two pack operation. When pack 1 is switched off, the flap changes position and connects the flight deck supply duct to the pack 2 mixer chamber. This function ensures: - a good flow separation during 2 pack operation, - the supply of a sufficient fresh air quantity to the flight deck with pack 1 off. When the flap in the mixer unit enters the airflow it causes a small airflow diversion into the flight deck duct. This results in an adequate supply of conditioned air to the flight deck. NOTE: Either pack can supply the flight deck with conditioned air. During normal operation, pack 1 supplies the flight deck and packs 1 and 2 supply the cabin. If the mixer flap actuator has a failure, the zone controller monitors the failure and keeps it in the nonvolatile memory.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Air Cooling System The two air conditioning packs decrease the temperature and the water contained in the hot bleed air from the pneumatic system. Heat exchangers decrease the temperature of the air. An air cycle machine first compresses the air and then expands it. A condenser concentrates the water in the air and a water extractor removes the water. The air conditioning packs are identical and are installed in the unpressurized area of the belly fairing between frames 35 and 41. An air conditioning pack consists of: - an air cycle machine, - a high pressure water extractor, - a reheater, - a condenser, - a primary heat exchanger, - a main heat exchanger, - a fan plenum, - an inlet plenum. The primary and main heat exchangers are installed in the ram air system between the plenums. Ram air flows through the heat exchangers and decreases the temperature of the hot bleed air from the pneumatic system. The air cycle machine is installed between the heat exhangers and the condenser. Air enters the compressor from the primary heat exchanger and is compressed. The pressure and temperature increase. The air then flows to the main heat exchanger. air then flows through the condensor and the reheater and expands across the turbine to drive the air cycle machine. The pressure and temperature decrease. The air then flows to the condenser. The expansion of the air in the turbine turns the turbine wheel, the compressor wheel and the fan wheel. The fan wheel gives a flow of air

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION through the ram air system if there is no ram air effect (on the ground). The main heat exchangers are installed in the ram air systems upstream of the primary heat exchangers. Ram air flows through and decreases the temperature of the hot air from the compressor of the air cycle machine. The reheater is installed between the main heat exchangers and the condenser. The hot air from the main heat exchanger increases the temperature of the cold air from the water extractor. The condenser is installed between the air cycle machine and the mixer unit. The cold air from the turbine of the air cycle machine decreases the temperature of the hot air from the reheater. The temperature of the hot air decreases to less than its dew point and the water in the air condenses. The water extractor is installed between the condenser and the reheater. It removes the water that concentrates in the condenser. The condensed water and the water from the split duct drain to the applicable water injector. A downstream check valve is installed between the condenser and the mixer unit. Air flows through the downstream check valve to the mixer unit. The downstream check valve closes if the air flows in the opposite direction. A fan plenum is installed in the ram air system and connected to the air cycle machine. In flight the ram air effect causes air to flow through the ram air system. The air cycle machine fan is in bypass but is still rotating by turbine air expansion. An inlet plenum is installed between the main heat exchanger and the ram air inlet. It guides the ram air from the ram air inlet to the main heat exchanger.
JUN 97 A320 LIMITATION 1 AND 9 COURSE
Air Cooling System The two air conditioning packs decrease the temperature and the water contained in the hot bleed air from the pneumatic system. Heat exchangers decrease the temperature of the air. An air cycle machine first compresses the air and then expands it. A condenser concentrates the water in the air and a water extractor removes the water. The air conditioning packs are identical and are installed in the unpressurized area of the belly fairing between frames 35 and 41. An air conditioning pack consists of: - an air cycle machine, - a high pressure water extractor, - a reheater, - a condenser, - a primary heat exchanger, - a main heat exchanger, - a fan plenum, - an inlet plenum. The primary and main heat exchangers are installed in the ram air system between the plenums. Ram air flows through the heat exchangers and decreases the temperature of the hot bleed air from the pneumatic system. The air cycle machine is installed between the heat exhangers and the condenser. Air enters the compressor from the primary heat exchanger and is compressed. The pressure and temperature increase. The air then flows to the main heat exchanger. air then flows through the condensor and the reheater and expands across the turbine to drive the air cycle machine. The pressure and temperature decrease. The air then flows to the condenser. The expansion of the air in the turbine turns the turbine wheel, the compressor wheel and the fan wheel. The fan wheel gives a flow of air

through the ram air system if there is no ram air effect (on the ground). The main heat exchangers are installed in the ram air systems upstream of the primary heat exchangers. Ram air flows through and decreases the temperature of the hot air from the compressor of the air cycle machine. The reheater is installed between the main heat exchangers and the condenser. The hot air from the main heat exchanger increases the temperature of the cold air from the water extractor. The condenser is installed between the air cycle machine and the mixer unit. The cold air from the turbine of the air cycle machine decreases the temperature of the hot air from the reheater. The temperature of the hot air decreases to less than its dew point and the water in the air condenses. The water extractor is installed between the condenser and the reheater. It removes the water that concentrates in the condenser. The condensed water and the water from the split duct drain to the applicable water injector. A downstream check valve is installed between the condenser and the mixer unit. Air flows through the downstream check valve to the mixer unit. The downstream check valve closes if the air flows in the opposite direction. A fan plenum is installed in the ram air system and connected to the air cycle machine. In flight the ram air effect causes air to flow through the ram air system. The air cycle machine fan is in bypass but is still rotating by turbine air expansion. An inlet plenum is installed between the main heat exchanger and the ram air inlet. It guides the ram air from the ram air inlet to the main heat exchanger.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION When the PACK (1, 2) push-button switches are pushed, the zone controller and pack controllers control the flow control valves to supply a constant flow for all normal operation conditions to the air conditioning packs. When the bleed air enters the system, it is cooled in the primary heat exchanger with ambient ram air. Part of this air passes through the bypass valve. The remainder is then compressed in the air cycle machine compressor, which increases the temperature and pressure. It is cooled again in the main heat exchanger with ambient ram air. The air now enters the high pressure water extraction loop, where it is cooled to less than its dew point. The high pressure water extraction loop has a reheater, a condenser and a water extractor. It keeps the dew point of the air to the mixer unit lower than +50°F (+10°C). The condenser is a heat exchanger which uses the turbine outlet air temperature (which is at a sea level dew point of approximately 32°F or 0°C) to condense the water in the outlet air of the main heat exchanger. The condensed water is extracted and drained from the air as it passes through the high pressure water extractor. From the water extractor, water flows to the water injector located upstream of the heat exchangers in the ram air duct. Bleed air is also routed to the water injector. The bleed air is directed through the injector and a pressure drop is created. The pressure drop causes water to flow to the water injector and to spray out into the ram air. The hot bleed air also prevents freezing at the water injector. To limit high pack discharge temperatures, the water extractor

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION outlet temperature is limited from 35.6°F (2°C) to 158°F (70°C). After the water extractor the air enters the reheater again and the temperature increases to assure a satisfactory turbine inlet temperature. In the air cycle machine turbine, the high pressure air expands and its kinetic energy drives the air cycle machine and the temperature and the pressure decrease. This causes additional condensation in the air cycle machine turbine during ground operation and low altitude flight. This condensation appears as snow. The turbine outlet air passing through the condenser is now the conditioned air and it leaves the air cooling system. Air is bled from the compressor inlet through the bypass valve to the turbine outlet. This modulates pack discharge temperature to the required level, if the limits for the water extractor are not exceeded. An anti-ice valve is used to stop (as a backup) ice formation downstream of the turbine. When a significant pressure drop is sensed the valve opens, tapping hot air from downstream of the flow control valves. This hot air is delivered to the turbine and this eliminates the formation of ice. Additionally the bypass valve always maintains a minimum air cycle machine flow to keep the air cycle machine idling during all pack operation conditions.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Pack Cooling Air Control The zone controller signals the required pack outlet temperature to the pack controllers. To get this temperature, the pack controller modulates the bypass valve and the ram air inlet/outlet doors. This is done in a pre-determined sequence, and is a compromise between the following: - minimum ram-air flow, - maintaining adequate heat transfer rates, - sufficient pack flow. A priority control overrides this ram air optimization, if the compressor outlet temperature gets to 356°F (180°C). During takeoff and landing, the ram air inlet doors are closed fully to stop the ingestion of foreign matter. Emergency Ram Air Inlet The emergency ram air inlet gives a flow of fresh air through the aircraft if there is a failure in the two air conditioning packs. An actuator extends and retracts the emergency ram air inlet. A check valve prevents the flow of air in the opposite direction. A Low Pressure (LP) ground connection is installed in the ram air duct for connection of a ground air supply. The emergency ram air inlet should only be operated if: - there is a failure in both air conditioning packs, - the altitude of the aircraft is less than 10,000 ft. (to prevent passenger discomfort), - the difference between the pressure in the fuselage and the external pressure is less than 1.0 psi. If the difference in pressure is more, the check valve cannot open and no emergency ram air flows in.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION TEMPERATURE CONTROL The Environmental Control System (ECS) maintains and controls the zone temperatures and the ventilation rate for the two passenger zones and the flight deck. It also supplies conditioned air to the cargo compartment. For this, two air conditioning packs are installed in the unpressurized area in the belly fairing. The packs are supplied with bleed air from the main engines, bleed air from the APU, or air from a ground source. The main part of the cooling system is a 3 wheel air cycle machine which works as a boot strap system for heating and cooling. A high pressure water separator is installed to take full advantage of available bleed pressures and recirculation capability. The system control is done by electronic controllers, electro-pneumatic valves and electrically driven valves. For sufficient ventilation and passenger comfort a common cold air manifold mixes the pack fresh air with recirculation air. The temperature control of the aft cargo compartments is similar to that of the flight deck and cabin temperature control system in the heating mode.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Pack Temperature Control The pack temperature control system controls the pack outlet temperature and sets its maximum and minimum limits. Two pack controllers control the system. Each pack controller controls the two major parameters of its related pack: - the pack outlet temperature (through the water extractor outlet temperature), - the ram air cooling flow, which is kept to a minimum for fuel economy. Each pack controller consists of two computers, one primary and one electrically independent secondary computer. The primary computer is capable of modulating the system parameters to their full extent, thus optimizing the system performance. The secondary computer gives a reduced level of optimization when it operates as a back-up in the event of the primary computer failure. In normal operation the primary computer of the pack controller controls the system. The pack controller gets a temperature reference as a demand signal from the zone controller. This demand signal, the preferred bypass valve position, the measured water extractor outlet temperature, the bypass valve actuator position, and the ram air outlet actuator position are used continuously to determine their necessary drive speeds. The speed is zero when the water extractor outlet temperature gets to the required value and the bypass valve to the preferred position. The preferred bypass valve position is normally 21° but is adjusted when necessary, dependent on pack inlet pressure. The ram air inlet actuator position is slaved to the actual ram air outlet actuator position.

In both cases the secondary computer of the pack controller takes control and opens the ram air doors to a limited position. If the power output circuit was the faulty function, the temperature will be controlled by the secondary computer and the bypass valve. If the bypass valve failure is effective, the ram air doors are controlled to a limited open position by the secondary computer to avoid overheating of the compressor. A failure of the primary computer of the pack controller is indicated on CFDS by the message Pl CONT or P2 CONT. Included in the air conditioning packs are pneumatic control devices. They are a final backup for overheat protection, pack control and icing protection.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Back up compressor overheat protection is as follows. Installed at the compressor outlet is a pneumatic temperature sensor. This acts (by differential expansion) directly on the flow control valve muscle pressure. It starts to close the flow control valve when the compressor outlet temperature gets to 446°F (230°C). Control is such that the overheat warning temperature of 500°F (260°C) should never occur. Back up pack control is as follows. In the event that the pack controller cannot control the pack outlet temperature, the pneumatic temperature control system is activated. The anti ice valve works with the pack outlet pneumatic sensor, to control the pack outlet temperature pneumatically to a nominally constant value of 59°F (15°C). Back up icing protection is as follows. Icing of the pack condenser is prevented with the anti ice valve. There are two pairs of pressure sense lines. One on the high pressure side of the condenser and the other on the low pressure side of the condenser. If an excessive pressure drop (indicating icing) is detected, the anti ice valve is opened (pneumatically). This results in a surge of hot air to the turbine outlet, which clears the ice blockage, and the anti-ice valve then shuts.

The pack controller will detect a failure of the bypass valve function when the bypass valve fails (either because of a valve actuator failure or because of a valve jam), or the power output circuit of the primary computer fails. In both cases the secondary computer of the pack controller takes control and opens the ram air doors to a limited position. If the power output circuit was the faulty function, the temperature will be controlled by the secondary computer and the bypass valve. If the bypass valve failure is effective, the ram air doors are controlled to a limited open position by the secondary computer to avoid overheating of the compressor. A failure of the primary computer of the pack controller is indicated on CFDS by the message Pl CONT or P2 CONT. Included in the air conditioning packs are pneumatic control devices. They are a final backup for overheat protection, pack control and icing protection.
21-18
Back up compressor overheat protection is as follows. Installed at the compressor outlet is a pneumatic temperature sensor. This acts (by differential expansion) directly on the flow control valve muscle pressure. It starts to close the flow control valve when the compressor outlet temperature gets to 446°F (230°C). Control is such that the overheat warning temperature of 500°F (260°C) should never occur. Back up pack control is as follows. In the event that the pack controller cannot control the pack outlet temperature, the pneumatic temperature control system is activated. The anti ice valve works with the pack outlet pneumatic sensor, to control the pack outlet temperature pneumatically to a nominally constant value of 59°F (15°C). Back up icing protection is as follows. Icing of the pack condenser is prevented with the anti ice valve. There are two pairs of pressure sense lines. One on the high pressure side of the condenser and the other on the low pressure side of the condenser. If an excessive pressure drop (indicating icing) is detected, the anti ice valve is opened (pneumatically). This results in a surge of hot air to the turbine outlet, which clears the ice blockage, and the anti-ice valve then shuts.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Flight Deck and Cabin Temperature Control The flight deck and cabin temperature control system controls the temperature in the cabin and flight deck. Different temperatures can be set for the flight deck and the cabin. The cabin is divided into the forward zone and the aft zone. Hot trim air, which is used for temperature control in the forward cabin, the aft cabin, and the flight deck is individually controlled under normal conditions in pressure and quantity. A backup is provided and will take over control in a failure condition. The zone controller controls the temperature of the flight deck, forward cabin and aft cabin zones. This controller contains two computers, a primary and a secondary. The primary computer gives full control of all of the system parameters. The secondary computer gives a reduced level of control when used as a backup to the primary computer, (in the event of primary computer failure). Hot trim air is taken from the bleed air supply to the air conditioning packs downstream of the flow control valves. It flows to the trim air check valves, through the trim air pressure regulating valve, and to the hot air pressure switch 26HK. From the trim air pressure regulating valve the air flows also to the aft cargo compartment heating system. It then flows to the independently controlled trim air valves (3) for the flight deck, forward cabin, and aft cabin. The trim air is mixed with cooled conditioned air from the mixer unit and flows to the cabin. The trim air also flows to the flight deck through a restrictor.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The three trim air valves add an adjustable quantity of hot trim air to the cooled conditioned air from the mixer unit. The zone temperature controller controls the position of the trim air valves. The trim air valves are installed in the ducts to the flight deck and the two cabin areas. The trim air pressure valve keeps the pressure in the trim air supply to 4 psi above the cabin pressure. It is installed downstream of the trim air check valves. In normal operation it operates pneumatically. The trim air pressure regulating valve can be used to shut off the trim air supply. Temperature sensors send temperature data to the zone temperature controller. The temperature sensor 24HK (for flight deck) is installed in the mixer unit. The temperature sensor 25HK (for cabin) is installed in the mixer unit. The temperature sensor 15HK is installed in the duct to the flight deck. The temperature sensor 16HK is installed in the duct to the forward cabin. The temperature sensor 17HK is installed in the duct to the aft cabin. The duct overheat temperature sensor 18HK is installed in the duct to the flight deck. The duct overheat temperature sensor 19HK is installed in the duct to the forward cabin. The duct overheat temperature sensor 20HK is installed in the duct to the aft cabin. The temperature sensor 21HK is installed in the flight deck. The temperature sensor 22HK is installed in the forward zone of the cabin. The temperature sensor 23HK is installed in the aft zone of the cabin.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Three temperature selectors allow the required air temperature to be set in the forward and aft cabin and on the flight deck. Any temperature between 64°F (18°C) and 86°F (30°C) can be set with the temperature selectors. The 12 o’clock position is 75°F (24°C). The selectors send a signal to the zone controller. The selectors are installed on the flight deck overhead panel 30VU. The temperatures in the different zones appear on the COND page of ECAM. The hot air pressure switch 26HK closes if the pressure in the applicable trim air supply is more than 6.5 psi (overpressure). The microswitch sends a signal to the zone controller. The signal continues until the hot air pressure switch opens when the pressure decreases to 5 psi. It is installed downstream of the trim air pressure regulating valve. The trim air check valves (2) prevent reverse flow if there is a pack failure. They are installed in the trim air supplies from the packs. Normal operation (Primary Computer) is as follows. The crew selects the desired temperature on the zone temperature selectors (3) located on the flight deck overhead panel 30VU.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION the zones. This is done through the pack outlet temperature and the trim air system. Hot bleed air is tapped downstream of the flow control valves. The air flows through the check valves to the trim air pressure regulating valve. This valve controls the pressure of the hot trim air going into the hot air manifold, to 4 psi above cabin pressure. The hot air pressure switch continuously monitors the pressure of the hot trim air. If the pressure in the system goes above 6.5 psi (ovrpressure), the zone controller sends a signal to the ECAM system. This signal stays until the pressure falls below 5 psi. The zone controller also determines which zone needs the lowest duct inlet temperature. This lowest temperature demand signal is sent to the pack temperature control system, and the pack outlet temperatures are adjusted accordingly. The other two zones will require higher duct inlet temperatures, this is done with hot bleed air from the trim air system. Each zone has its own trim air valve and the zone controller adjusts each valve to give the necessary temperatures. The primary computer side of the zone controller increases the zone reference temperatures selected on each temperature selector. It does this to compensate for reduced humidity and a decrease in interior wall temperature (which is dependent on aircraft altitude).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The normal limits for the zone duct inlet temperatures are a low limit of 46°F (8°C) to a high limit of 122°F (50°C). These limits can be extended to low 35°F (2°C) to high 158°F (70°C) during pull up and pull down. This is recognized because the measured temperature is outside the selectable range of 64°F (18°C) to 86°F (30°C). The extended operating limits also apply during one pack operation, to maintain the temperature below 86°F (30°C) or above 69°F (21°C). The required mix manifold temperature (the lowest duct demand temperature) is compared with the actual mix manifold temperature. This determines the necessary pack outlet temperature, which is computed in the zone controller and signalled to both pack controllers. The crew can select the flow control reference to 80%, 100% or 120% (LO, NORM, HI) of the nominal value. The selected values can be modified under the conditions listed below: - during APU operation, the zone controller receives the discrete APU bleed valve open signal and resets the flow reference to 120%. This overrides any other selection or commands (the APU control and APU demand signals control the APU flow). - if 80% (LO) is selected, the controller can increase the flow reference up to 100% when the cooling demand is not met. - when there is only one pack operating the controller for that pack will increase the flow reference to 120% (HI).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION A signal from the zone controller can increase the APU flow output if any selected zone temperature is not met. The demand signal is 0% for most normal operating conditions. This increases proportionally up to 100%, when the duct demand temperature (of any zone) reaches the predetermined low (cooling) or high (heating) values. The zone controllers can supply a demand signal to FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control) to increase the engine idle setting during descent and ground operation. It does this to increase the available bleed pressure when the existing pressure is insufficient to provide necessary flow through the packs for cabin cooling. The demand signal is 0 % for most normal operating conditions. This increases proportionally to 100% (to give up to 30 psig pack inlet pressure), when the duct demand temperature of any zone reaches a predetermined low value (lack of cooling). The pack inlet pressure must also have reached a predetermined low value.

The primary computer does this through the primary duct temperature or the duct overheat sensor. The secondary computer does this through the secondary duct temperature sensor. The first computer (primary or secondary) to detect an overheat will send a signal to illuminate the FAULT light on the HOT AIR switch. It will also close the trim air pressure regulating valve. The primary computer will close all three trim air valves. The FAULT light will stay on and the closed valves will stay closed until: - the duct temperature goes down below 158°F (70°C), - the HOT AIR switch is released (to make the FAULT light go off.), - the HOT AIR switch is pressed again (to open the trim air regulating valve and the three trim air valves).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The primary computer can detect an early overheat condition of 176°F (80°C). It does this through the duct temperature sensor 15HK (16HK, 17HK) or the duct overheat sensor 18HK (19HK, 20HK). The primary computer commands the trim air pressure regulating valve to reduce its setting from 4 psi to 2 psi when 176°F (80°C) is detected. The higher pressure setting is commanded again when all duct temperatures are below 158°F (70°C). If an early overheat condition of 176°F (80°C) is detected four times during one flight, the 190°F (88°C) procedure is indicated. Failure of the trim air system will cause the primary computer (of the zone controller) to change to a backup control mode. Separate control of flight deck and cabin is still given, but a distinction between forward and aft cabin is not made. In this mode each pack is controlled separately, pack 1 for the flight deck and pack 2 for the cabin.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Secondary Zone Controller The system has different backup functions to make sure of safe operation in the event of failure. The primary computer (of the zone controller) normally gives full (or backup) control of the system, with the secondary system for failure storage and system monitoring. Failure of the primary computer (of the zone controller) will cause the secondary computer to take over to give a reduced level of control. In this failure condition, control of the trim air system is lost. The flight deck and cabin temperature control is similar to that described earlier for the primary computer. The following reduced functions are also given: - 75°F (24°C) replaces the selectable zone temperatures without altitude correction, - the APU demand signal is not available, - the flow setting optimization is not available. Both the primary and secondary computer of the zone controller give overheat detection and related actions. The temperature in each zone is controlled from (cold) 64°F (18°C) to (hot) 86°F (30°C). This is relative to the position of the temperature selectors. In the center position the temperature is controlled to approximately 75°F (24°C).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The hot air which is supplied to the trim air pressure regulating valve is unconditioned bleed air. The hot air switch installed in the flight deck overhead panel 30VU controls this valve. When AUTO is selected (switch depressed), the trim air pressure regulating valve pneumatically controls the hot air manifold pressure to 4 psi above cabin pressure. The valve will electrically close automatically if the temperature in the supply duct goes above 190°F (88°C). This will also happen if the temperature in the supply duct goes above 176°F (80°C) four times in one flight. When OFF is selected (switch released), OFF comes on in white, and the trim air pressure regulating valve closes. FAULT comes on in amber when an overheat condition is detected and remains, regardless of the hot air switch position, until the temperature falls below 158°F (70°C).

Secondary Zone Controller The system has different backup functions to make sure of safe operation in the event of failure. The primary computer (of the zone controller) normally gives full (or backup) control of the system, with the secondary system for failure storage and system monitoring. Failure of the primary computer (of the zone controller) will cause the secondary computer to take over to give a reduced level of control. In this failure condition, control of the trim air system is lost. The flight deck and cabin temperature control is similar to that described earlier for the primary computer. The following reduced functions are also given: - 75°F (24°C) replaces the selectable zone temperatures without altitude correction, - the APU demand signal is not available, - the flow setting optimization is not available. Both the primary and secondary computer of the zone controller give overheat detection and related actions. The temperature in each zone is controlled from (cold) 64°F (18°C) to (hot) 86°F (30°C). This is relative to the position of the temperature selectors. In the center position the temperature is controlled to approximately 75°F (24°C).

The hot air which is supplied to the trim air pressure regulating valve is unconditioned bleed air. The hot air switch installed in the flight deck overhead panel 30VU controls this valve. When AUTO is selected (switch depressed), the trim air pressure regulating valve pneumatically controls the hot air manifold pressure to 4 psi above cabin pressure. The valve will electrically close automatically if the temperature in the supply duct goes above 190°F (88°C). This will also happen if the temperature in the supply duct goes above 176°F (80°C) four times in one flight. When OFF is selected (switch released), OFF comes on in white, and the trim air pressure regulating valve closes. FAULT comes on in amber when an overheat condition is detected and remains, regardless of the hot air switch position, until the temperature falls below 158°F (70°C).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION DISTRIBUTION A mixer unit, installed under the cabin floor mixes conditioned air with cabin air. The cabin air which has entered the underfloor area is drawn through two recirculation filters by two recirculation fans. The recirculation fans then blow the air through check valves (2) to the mixer unit. The quantity of cabin air mixed with conditioned air ranges from 29% to 42% on A319 aircraft to 34% to 36% on A320 aircraft (in normal cases). This is related to the position of the flow selector. In an emergency situation, a ram air inlet is opened to supply sufficient air to the flight deck and cabin zones. A low pressure ground connector is also connected to the ram air system for connection to a ground air supply. The low pressure ground air source can supply conditioned air to the system when the engines and APU are stopped. The passenger cabin is divided into the forward and aft distribution zones. Each distribution zone has main supply ducts and small riser ducts. The main supply ducts are installed under the cabin floor along the left hand and right hand side of the fuselage. The riser ducts connect to the main supply ducts and go up between every second window to outlets above and below the hatracks. The L-shaped riser ducts connect the outlets above the doors to the main supply ducts. Most of the distribution ducts are made resin and glassfiber laminate with metal sleeves bonded to each end for duct interconnection. Flexible bellows, which are made of silicone laminate and glassfiber, connect the ducts to each other. During installation, clamps secure the flexible bellows.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Lavatory and Galley Ventilation The Lavatory and Galley Ventilation System uses air from the cabin zones and conditioned air from the main distribution ducts. Air removed from the ceiling area of the lavatory, galley units and the lavatory bowls, is delivered to the outflow valve area. A duct system, different from the cabin distribution system, is used to prevent unpleasant smells from entering the cabin. A smoke detection system is installed in each lavatory. Most of the air used for ventilation is cabin air. The extraction fan draws air into the units. Conditioned air is supplied to each lavatory and some galleys, from tappings on the cabin air distribution ducts. Restrictors are installed downstream of the tapping points to increase pressure for correct functioning of the individual outlets. The airflow, from these outlets, is adjustable in both quantity and direction, and is located below the lavatory mirrors. The extraction fan removes air from the lavatory and the galley through a duct located above the cabin ceiling. This duct extends the length of the cabin from the

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION forward utility area to the left hand aft lavatory. The duct divides into two dropper ducts and follows the fuselage contour downwards (on each side of a window) to the fan. The air is then removed overboard through the outflow valve. The extraction fan operates continuously during flight and on the ground when electrical power is available to the aircraft. The lavatory and galley extraction fan is installed in line with the extraction duct. It is powered by a three phase induction motor that drives a fan wheel which has high efficiency blades. The fan will operate continuously at about 11,700 RPM. Thermo switches are installed inside the stators of the extraction fan for overheat protection. If the temperature of the stator gets to 273°F (134°C) to 294°F (146°C) the thermo switches isolate the electrical supply to the fan. The lavatory and galley extraction fan is continuously monitored by the zone controller of the cabin temperature control system. If the fan fails, the zone controller sends a signal to the ECAM and CFDS systems.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Avionics Equipment Ventilation The avionics ventilation system operates in different configurations. These configurations are dependent upon ambient temperature and whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. The avionics equipment is cooled with air supplied in different ways. These are an open circuit, a closed circuit, a partially open circuit and flight deck supply air (in failure cases) as listed below: In the open circuit, the avionics equipment is cooled with ambient air under certain conditions. These conditions are that the aircraft is on the ground and the skin temperature is above 51.8°F (11°C) and the temperature has been increasing or above 39.2°F (4°C) and the temperature has been decreasing. Ambient air, drawn through a skin air inlet valve is blown through a check valve and filter assembly. The air drawn by a blower fan is blown through a check valve into the system. The air, after cooling the equipment, is drawn with an extract fan directly overboard through a skin air outlet valve. In the open circuit, the skin heat exchanger is bypassed because the skin exchanger isolation valve is closed. The closed circuit normally cools the avionics equipment. The conditions are that the aircraft is on the ground and skin temperature is below 51.8°F (11°C) and the temperature has been increasing or below 39.2°F (4°C) and the temperature has been

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION decreasing. In flight the temperature must be below 93.2°F (34°C) and the temperature has been increasing or below 80.6°F (27°C) and the temperature has been decreasing. In these conditions, the skin air inlet valve and the skin air outlet valve close. The skin exchanger outlet by pass valve opens. In addition, the skin exchanger isolation valve opens to bring the skin heat exchanger into full use. Three pressure switches, 17HQ, 19HQ, and 30HQ at different places in the system, signal the avionics computer when an increased pressure/airflow is detected. When this signal is received, the skin exchanger inlet bypass valve opens and air flows into the forward underfloor area. The skin exchanger inlet bypass valve will close when the pressure switches indicate the system pressure/airflow is at the correct level. NOTE: The increasing/decreasing temperature parameter prevents the system from cycling between modes which could occur if a single temperature switch point were used on the skin temperature sensor. The open circuit is used on the ground with warmer temperatures and the closed circuit is used on the ground with cooler temperatures. The closed circuit (cooler temperatures) or the partially open circuit (warmer temperatures, description follows) are used in flight.

When the ambient temperature drops below 80.6°F (27°C), the system goes back to a closed circuit configuration.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Avionics Equipment Ventilation Cont. Flight deck supply air (from the flight deck supply duct) is used to cool the avionics equipment when one of the four following failure cases occurs. An extraction low flow causes the avionics computer to illuminate a FAULT light on the extract push-button switch. This happens if the pressure switch detects low flow. When this happens, OVRD on the push-button switch must be selected. This causes the conditioned air inlet valve and skin exchanger isolation valve to open. All other valves close. Blower low flow or high duct temperature causes the avionics computer to illuminate a FAULT light on the blower push-button switch. This happens if the pressure switches 17HQ and 19HQ detect low flow, or if the temperature sensor 26HQ senses high duct temperature. When this happens, OVRD on the pushbutton switch must be selected. This causes the blower fan to stop, opens the conditioned air inlet valve and opens the skin exchanger isolation valve. All other valves close.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION If the smoke detector identifies smoke, the smoke detector control unit (SDCU) triggers illumination of the SMOKE legend of the GEN 1 LINE push-button switch on panel 21VU. The FAULT legends of the BLOWER and EXTACT push-button switches on panel 22VU illuminate amber. When this happens, OVRD on the blower push-button switch and on the extract push-button switch must be selected. This causes the blower fan to stop, opens the conditioned air inlet valve and partially opens the skin air outlet valve. All other valves close and the air is directed overboard through the skin air outlet valve. If the avionics computer stops operating, FAULT lights on the extract push-button and blower push-button illuminate amber. When this happens, OVRD on both pushbuttons must be selected. This causes the blower fan to stop and opens the conditioned air inlet valve and partially opens the skin air outlet valve. All other valves stay at their last controlled position.

The aft cargo compartment ventilation system supplies air to the aft cargo compartment. The ventilation air comes from the cabin zones through openings in the cabin floor behind the sidewall panels. Suction in the aft cargo compartment pulls cabin air into the compartment through ducts routed along the lower fuselage interior. The suction is caused when the extraction fan is working on the ground and in flight. Three inlets, installed along the compartment lower left hand sidewall, direct the air towards the compartment floor area. An isolation valve is installed in distribution ducts upstream of the compartment inlets.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Aft Cargo Compartment Heating (A320) NOTE: A319 aircraft do not have an aft cargo heating system. Hot bleed air, from the APU bleed air duct, is mixed with cabin air and delivered to the aft cargo compartment ventilation system. This raises the temperature in the compartment to a pre-selected level. The forward cargo compartment does not have a heating system. A hot trim air valve is installed in the supply duct to the aft cargo compartment. This valve is made from light alloy and is of the butterfly type. A stepper motor drives a center shaft (to which the butterfly valve is attached) through reduction gears. The valve also has mechanical stops and limit switches. The limit switches stop the valve from opening or closing beyond the valve’s predetermined limits. The mechanical stops are a backup to the limit switches. A manual override and a visual position indicator are installed on the end of the shaft. The step counter of the controller counts the steps of the stepper motor to calculate the position of the valve butterfly for indication on ECAM. A return spring closes the trim air valve if the power supply or the controller does not operate. NOTE: Aircraft 401 - 409 have different trim air valves. Consult the Aircraft Maintenance Manual for differences. The aft cargo compartment heating system has its own controller. The controller is installed in the avionics compartment, in rack 96VU. The function of the controller is to regulate the temperature in the aft cargo compartment to pre-selected values. The required temperature is selected with

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION the temperature selector located on the flight deck overhead panel 22VU. The controller also sends signals to CFDS and ECAM via the ARINC 429 data bus. The controller’s circuits are fully digital and include BITE. If the variable control function of the controller does not operate, the trim air valve and the pressure regulating valve will close. This is done independently of the controller. The pressure regulating valve is used to control the pressure of the hot trim air supply to 4 psi above cabin pressure. The secondary function is to provide a shut off facility to the aft cargo compartment. This butterfly type valve is under normal conditions actuated by a pneumatic actuator and controlled by a regulator. The valve is activated when the solenoid is energized. The valve can be operated manually and includes a visual position indicator. A limit switch indicates closed/not closed to the zone controller and to the ECAM system. The temperature in the aft cargo compartment can be selected to between 41°F (5°C) and 79°F (26°C). Turning the selector knob to the right or left will select any temperature between the above temperatures. When the selector knob is pointing to the 12 o’clock position, the temperature in the cargo compartment is selected to about 60°F (15°C). If the selector is set above the cabin ambient temperature, heat will be added to the air entering the cargo compartment. If the selector is set below the cabin ambient temperature, no cooling takes place and the air entering the cargo compartment will be at the cabin ambient temperature. The heating controller limits the temperature in the inlet duct to a maximum of 158°F (70°C).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION PRESSURIZATION In normal operation, pressurization control is fully automatic. Two identical, independent systems control cabin altitude using a single outflow valve that is powered by one of three DC motors. Two motors alternate between primary and backup control (along with their associated controllers). The third motor is used for manual operation. Safety valves protect against excessive differential pressure. In the automatic mode, one cabin pressure controller is active while the other is in standby. Automatic transfer between the two occurs after landing or in case of failure of the operating controller. The controller normally uses landing elevation and sea level atmospheric pressure (QNH) from the Flight Management and Guidance Computer (FMGC). The pressure altitude is received from ADIRS. If the FMGC information is not available, the controller uses reference data from the ADIRS set by the Captain’s barometric altimeter, and landing elevation from the LDG ELEV selector. The controllers also use throttle position and ground/flight logic. The zone controller provides air conditioning or airflow information.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The modes of pressurization operation include: - Ground, before takeoff and after landing, the outflow valve is controlled fully open. - Takeoff, to avoid a pressure surge at rotation, the controller pre-pressurizes the airplane when the throttles are advanced to the takeoff range. - Climb, the climb mode begins at liftoff. The cabin altitude varies according to the actual airplane rate of climb. - Cruise, the cabin altitude is the highest value determined by the airplane leveloff altitude or the landing field elevation. - Descent, the cabin pressure rate of descent is optimized so that it reaches the landing field pressure just prior to landing. The maximum rate of descent is limited to 750 feet per minute. If both automatic systems fail, the pressurization can be manually controlled. When the CABIN PRESS MODE SEL is positioned to MAN, the MAN V/S CTL switch is energized and the third (manual) motor is activated to control the outflow valve. The automatic pressurization motors are deactivated. The MAN V/S CTL switch controls the outflow valve position. A ditching switch sends closure signals to the outflow valve (when in automatic operation), emergency ram air inlet, avionics inlet and extract valves, and pack flow control valves.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Pressure Control and Monitoring During normal operation the system operates automatically and no inputs from the crew are required. The only direct input the system needs is from the landing field elevation selector. The selector knob is set to the AUTO position for normal operation. This makes sure that the controllers take the landing field elevation input signal from the FMGS. In all other cases the landing field elevation selector output signal overrides the input signal from the FMGS. The operation logic of the system depends an the available input signal source. The control is performed in 6 different modes which are selected, dependent on the logic shown in the following Pressurization System Operation Logic diagram. The system operation logic is divided into two components, the pressure schedule block and the rate limits. The mode logic controls both components which select the actual mode, dependent on various inputs. The pressure schedules work with a dedicated rate limit to guarantee passenger comfort and safety at each flight phase. The five pressure schedule blocks generate the operational phases for the cabin pressure schedules. They are fed to the pressure schedule selector which sends the selected scheduled pressure to the rate control block.

A319/A320 AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The rate control limits the rate of change of scheduled pressure signal. It then sends the signal to the maximum delta p limiter and through the pressure loop closure to the servo motor drive. The rate control block receives the rate limit input from the rate limit selector. These limits are given in the rate limit blocks and fed to the rate limit selector. This determines which rate limits are used in each mode. Extensive redundancy is built in to give fault tolerance for internal and external fault. In addition, to complete system redundancy, the ADIRS inputs are fed in through three independent data buses to give dual redundancy. A semi automatic backup mode is built in to compensate for partial or complete FMGS failure. At least one ADIRS bus must be functioning and give a valid ambient pressure signal for any automatic operation. In case of total loss of ADIRS signals, standard altitude will be selected as a default value to continue automatic operation. The final backup mode is a toggle switch that directly operates the out flow valve. ECAM and the manual indicator circuit give indication signals for this operation. The system operates with the following control modes: GN - Ground, TO - Take off, AB - Abort, CI - Climb, Internal, CR - Cruise, DI - Descent, Internal. The function of the mode logic, is to determine the actual system mode using the inputs shown in the previous Pressurization System Operation Logic diagram.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Pressure schedules and rate limits are as follow. - Ground Mode; the cabin pressure on ground can never reach the scheduled pressure. This is because the scheduled pressure is always lower than actual cabin pressure. Therefore, the outflow valve is driven fully open. - Take off Mode; to eliminate the pressure bump (during aircraft rotation), and to bring the cabin into control at liftoff, a slight pre-pressurization sequence is initiated. - Internal Climb Mode; in this mode cabin pressure is controlled in relation to ambient pressure and aircraft climb speed. Control is based on a preprogrammed schedule, which schedules the change in cabin pressure to a change in ambient pressure. It is ensured that maximum differential pressure will not be encountered during climb. A basic schedule is stored in a permanent memory. - Abort Mode; the purpose of the abort mode is to prevent the cabin climbing if the aircraft does not climb after takeoff. For example, if an engine failure happens after V1 the aircraft must takeoff. The system will switch to internal climb after takeoff. If the aircraft descends, instead of climbing, while below an altitude of 8000 ft the system will switch to abort mode. The cabin pressure is then controlled back to the value before takeoff.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION - Cruise Mode; for cruise mode the system will select the highest in altitude, lowest in pressure of the cabin pressure differential at mode switch into CR, or, the landing field altitude. When the selected landing field altitude is higher than the cruise altitude, the cabin goes to landing altitude during cruise. This function is only valid for airfield altitude above 8000 ft. While in the cruise mode, the system includes a fixed rate for aircraft climb and descent of 300 feet per minute. - Internal Descent Mode; during the descent of the aircraft the internal rate limit adjusts the rate to an optimum so that the cabin pressure reaches landing field pressure just prior to landing and negative relief will not be encountered. In this mode cabin pressure and its rate of descent are controlled in correlation to aircraft altitude, the rate limit being based on a memorized schedule. As with takeoff, to avoid a pressure bump during touch down the fuselage is pressurized with a delta p of .1 psi. At touch down a de-pressurized sequence is initiated which de-pressurizes the fuselage with a cabin rate of 500 fpm to the landing field pressure. The outflow valve will be driven to its fully open position and the system transfers 180 seconds after touch down, independent from the differential pressure.
JUN 97 A320 LIMITATION 1 AND 9 COURSE
Pressure schedules and rate limits are as follow. - Ground Mode; the cabin pressure on ground can never reach the scheduled pressure. This is because the scheduled pressure is always lower than actual cabin pressure. Therefore, the outflow valve is driven fully open. - Take off Mode; to eliminate the pressure bump (during aircraft rotation), and to bring the cabin into control at liftoff, a slight pre-pressurization sequence is initiated. - Internal Climb Mode; in this mode cabin pressure is controlled in relation to ambient pressure and aircraft climb speed. Control is based on a preprogrammed schedule, which schedules the change in cabin pressure to a change in ambient pressure. It is ensured that maximum differential pressure will not be encountered during climb. A basic schedule is stored in a permanent memory. - Abort Mode; the purpose of the abort mode is to prevent the cabin climbing if the aircraft does not climb after takeoff. For example, if an engine failure happens after V1 the aircraft must takeoff. The system will switch to internal climb after takeoff. If the aircraft descends, instead of climbing, while below an altitude of 8000 ft the system will switch to abort mode. The cabin pressure is then controlled back to the value before takeoff.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION A warning signal is generated for low delta p and a high rate of descent. The low delta p/high descent warning is used to warn the flight crew that the aircraft will encounter negative differential pressure if the present descent rate is continued. An excessive cabin altitude warning is indicated on ECAM as a red warning and is given if the cabin altitude gets to 9550 ft ±350 ft. A controller fault is shown on ECAM in amber. Manual cabin pressure control is available. On the overhead panel in the flight deck two switches are installed for manual cabin pressure control, a selection switch for the manual mode and a toggle switch for increasing or decreasing of the cabin altitude. For indication on ECAM during manual operation the pressure controller has a completely separate backup circuit, the cabin altitude, cabin rate, excessive cabin altitude warning and outflow valve position are shown on the system display CRT. The manual mode of control would normally only be used in the event of the failure of both automatic systems. However, if so desired the crew can select it overriding the automatic pressure control system.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Cabin altitude indication is as follows: - Auto Mode; the calculation of the cabin altitude in the AUTO mode is done depending on aircraft altitude. If the aircraft altitude is higher than 5000 ft. above takeoff or landing fields, the cabin altitude will be calculated to standard atmosphere. - If the aircraft altitude is lower than 5000 ft. above takeoff or landing fields, the cabin altitude will be calculated to the actual altitude above sea level (using the barometric correction from ADIRS). - Manual Mode; the calculation of the cabin attitude in the MAN mode is done in the SDAC to standard atmosphere (the CPCS manual backup circuit provides the SDAC with a cabin pressure value). - Therefore, there can be a slight difference in cabin attitude between AUTO and MAN modes if the aircraft altitude is higher than 5000 ft. above takeoff or landing fields. - There may be a difference between cabin attitude indications due to actual barometric conditions (weather) if the aircraft is lower than 5000 ft. above takeoff or landing fields.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The pressurization system interfaces with other systems as follows: - ADIRS; the cabin pressure system uses inputs from ADIRS which is designed in accordance to ARINC 738. - The uncorrected static pressure is only used when none of the 3 ADIRU’s supplies the corrected static pressure (i.e. during an electrical emergency configuration). - FMGS; information from the FMGS is used to perform normal cabin pressure control. Depending on the state of the FMGS, only some or the complete number of usable parameters will be taken into account. - Flight crew interface (input); flight crew input to FMGS is necessary for the landing altitude. The landing altitude (destination input) is used to calculate the general descent control schedule of the cabin pressure control system in internal mode. The landing altitude is also that altitude where, after flight and de-pressurization the delta p is zero. - Flight crew input of destination QNH (sea level atmospheric pressure) is also needed for correct descent performance calculating. The latest this input will be given is before starting descent. At

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION 10,000 ft, ADIRS gives the standard atmosphere pressure (1013.5 mbar) and only below a transition altitude (10,000 ft) the pressure input will be changed to QNH (or QFE, field elevation atmospheric pressure) and the transition would lead to a control inconsistency. Therefore the cabin pressure control system will read the destination QNH as early as possible to avoid this inconsistency in the transition altitude. - Furthermore, the reading and application of the destination QNH as the target pressure will also solve the problem should the pilots select the QFE value instead of QNH. In the event that QNH is not available from the FMGS, the selection of destination QFE requires a special selection on the landing field elevation selector of zero ft. FMGS calculated values do not require direct input. The update rate for the parameters sent by the FMGS is 900 ms. - CFDS Interface; the BIT in the controllers and the outflow valve actuator drive electronics can isolate faults down to component level. This information is given to the CFDS via an ARINC 429 data bus.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION GENERAL The autoflight system (AFS) is made up of the Flight Management and Guidance System (FMGS) and the Flight Augmentation Computers (FACs). The FMGS performs the following functions: - autopilot (AP), - flight director (FD), - autothrust (A/THR), - flight management which includes navigation, performance and processing of displays. The FAC performs the following functions: - yaw damper, - rudder travel limiting, - monitoring of the flight envelope and computations of maneuvering speed, - yaw autopilot order using power loops of yaw damper and rudder trim, - FAC 1: BITE function of the autoflight system (AFS). The actuators associated with the FAC are directly connected to the flight controls. All the autoflight controls and displays are located on the glareshield, overhead panel, maintenance panel and center pedestal in the cockpit. Digital data buses provide interconnections between the computers, control units and sensors. The interconnection between the FACs, the FMGCs and the peripherals makes sure that a single failure of a peripheral has no effect on the AFS/FMS functions. The Auto Flight System provides the crew with functions reducing their workload and improving the safety and the regularity of the flight. The Auto Flight System (AFS) calculates orders to automatically control the flight controls and engines by computing orders then sending them to the Electrical Flight Control System (EFCS)

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION and to the Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) system. When the AFS is not active, the above mentioned components are controlled by the same systems, but orders are generated by specific devices such as side sticks and thrust levers. A fundamental function of the AFS is to calculate the position of the aircraft. When computing A/C position, the system uses several aircraft sensors (ex. VOR, DME). Aircraft control is AUTOMATIC (Autopilot or Autothrust), or MANUAL (crew action on side stick or on thrust levers). Aircraft guidance is MANAGED (targets are provided by the FMGC), or SELECTED (guidance targets are selected by the crew through the FCU). Flight management and flight guidance, are mainly controlled from the Multipurpose Control and Display Unit and Flight Control Unit. Before departure on the Multipurpose Control and Display Unit (MCDU) the crew selects the flight plan, which will be followed later on by the aircraft. In flight, on the Flight Control Unit (FCU), the crew can engage the autopilot and can modify different flight parameters leading to a change in the control of the aircraft. The system has several flight plans in its memory, and they are predetermined by the airline. A flight plan comprises a complete flight from departure to arrival, the various elements and constraints for the route the aircraft must fly along, from take off to landing. It includes vertical information and all intermediate waypoints and can be displayed on the instruments (CRTs). A flight plan can be selected, built up, modified and monitored through the MCDU. The database must updated.

AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Flight Management Guidance System The FMGS is a dual type system for the autopilot and autothrust functions. In cruise mode only one autopilot can be engaged. Both APs can be engaged (through the AP l and AP 2 pushbutton switches located on the FCU) as soon as ILS approach mode is selected. AP l has priority, AP 2 is in standby (the ELACs and the FACs use the AP l commands first and switch on the AP 2 command in case of AP l disengagement). A single A/THR pushbutton switch located on the FCU enables engagement of the autothrust function. Both A/THRs are always engaged at the same time, but only one (A/THR 1 or A/THR 2) is active depending on AP and FD engagement status. The flight director is active when the aircraft electrical network is energized. After power-up, the associated FD pushbutton switches on CAPT and F/O EFIS control sections come on. FMGC 1 normally drives the FD symbols (crossed bars or yaw bar or flight path director symbols) on Capt PFD and the FMGC 2 normally drives the FD symbols on F/O PFD. In case of the failure of one FMGC, the remaining FMGC drives the FD symbols on both PFDs. The flight management system is available when the aircraft electrical network is energized. The FMGCs work normally in dual mode on the master/slave concept. Both FMGCs perform the same functions simultaneously and use all crew inputs on MCDU 1 or 2.

A319/A320 AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The flight management functions are performed by normally using the system input of the associated side (1 or 2). The slave system synchronizes on the master system for the initialization of flight planning, modification and sequencing, the performance modes, the guidance modes and radio navigation. The results are compared and, in case of discrepancy, the MCDU displays messages (position, weight, target speeds). The FMGC 1 and 2 send autopilot orders through output buses to the ELACs. The ELACs then transmit deflection commands to the surfaces on the pitch and roll axes. The ELACs use the buses from the FMGC 1 or FMGC 2 according to the autopilot engaged (AP l has priority when both APs are engaged in ILS approach). The FMGC 1 and 2 send autopilot orders to the FACs which control both yaw damper servo actuators (transient commands) and rudder trim actuator (permanent commands). The FACs use the same priority logic as the ELACs. The FACs send yaw damper commands to two hydraulic servo actuators (one per FAC). They also send commands to four electrical actuators for rudder trim and rudder travel limiting (one per FAC and per function). All the servomotors operate using an automatic changeover logic in the event of a failure. The FMGCs compute and transmit data to the engines through the FCU, EIU and EEC digital data buses. To consolidate engine data, the FMGC having priority compares the output parameters from the Flight Control Unit (FCU) with its own available data by means of comparison logic.
JUN 97 A320 LIMITATION 1 AND 9 COURSE
Flight Management Guidance System The FMGS is a dual type system for the autopilot and autothrust functions. In cruise mode only one autopilot can be engaged. Both APs can be engaged (through the AP l and AP 2 pushbutton switches located on the FCU) as soon as ILS approach mode is selected. AP l has priority, AP 2 is in standby (the ELACs and the FACs use the AP l commands first and switch on the AP 2 command in case of AP l disengagement). A single A/THR pushbutton switch located on the FCU enables engagement of the autothrust function. Both A/THRs are always engaged at the same time, but only one (A/THR 1 or A/THR 2) is active depending on AP and FD engagement status. The flight director is active when the aircraft electrical network is energized. After power-up, the associated FD pushbutton switches on CAPT and F/O EFIS control sections come on. FMGC 1 normally drives the FD symbols (crossed bars or yaw bar or flight path director symbols) on Capt PFD and the FMGC 2 normally drives the FD symbols on F/O PFD. In case of the failure of one FMGC, the remaining FMGC drives the FD symbols on both PFDs. The flight management system is available when the aircraft electrical network is energized. The FMGCs work normally in dual mode on the master/slave concept. Both FMGCs perform the same functions simultaneously and use all crew inputs on MCDU 1 or 2.
22-2
The flight management functions are performed by normally using the system input of the associated side (1 or 2). The slave system synchronizes on the master system for the initialization of flight planning, modification and sequencing, the performance modes, the guidance modes and radio navigation. The results are compared and, in case of discrepancy, the MCDU displays messages (position, weight, target speeds). The FMGC 1 and 2 send autopilot orders through output buses to the ELACs. The ELACs then transmit deflection commands to the surfaces on the pitch and roll axes. The ELACs use the buses from the FMGC 1 or FMGC 2 according to the autopilot engaged (AP l has priority when both APs are engaged in ILS approach). The FMGC 1 and 2 send autopilot orders to the FACs which control both yaw damper servo actuators (transient commands) and rudder trim actuator (permanent commands). The FACs use the same priority logic as the ELACs. The FACs send yaw damper commands to two hydraulic servo actuators (one per FAC). They also send commands to four electrical actuators for rudder trim and rudder travel limiting (one per FAC and per function). All the servomotors operate using an automatic changeover logic in the event of a failure. The FMGCs compute and transmit data to the engines through the FCU, EIU and EEC digital data buses. To consolidate engine data, the FMGC having priority compares the output parameters from the Flight Control Unit (FCU) with its own available data by means of comparison logic.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION There are no servo actuators for the autopilot and the autothrust functions. The side stick controllers and the throttle control levers do not move when the autopilot and the A/THR are engaged. The FAC is a dual type system for yaw damper, rudder trim and rudder travel functions. FACs 1 and 2 can be engaged at the same time through FAC 1 and FAC 2 pushbutton switches on the overhead panel. Only one system is active at a time: FAC 1 has priority, FAC 2 being in standby and synchronized on FAC 1 orders. An automatic changeover to FAC 2 occurs in case of disengagement or failure of FAC 1. Partial changeover function per function (yaw damper, rudder trim, RTL) is possible. When the aircraft electrical network is energized, flight envelope monitoring and computation of maneuvering speeds operate independently of the FAC pushbutton switches. The FACs provide windshear and low energy warnings and flight envelope protection. FMGC 1 and Capt PFD normally use data from FAC 1 while FMGC 2 and F/O PFD normally use data from FAC 2. In the event of failure, the FMGCs and the PFDs use the data from the active FAC. FAC 1 performs the BITE function of the whole AFS/FMS.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION FLIGHT GUIDANCE Each FMGC is made of two parts: - The Flight Management Part (FM), - The Flight Guidance Part (FG). The Flight Management part provides functions related to flight plan definition, revision and monitoring. The flight guidance part provides functions related to aircraft control. The Flight Guidance portion of the FMGS utilizes the autopilots, flight directors, and autothrottle system to provide flight guidance. These functions work according to modes generally chosen on the FCU. The Management part of the FMGC is used as a reference source for the guidance part. There are two basic modes of flight guidance: "managed" and "selected." Managed modes are armed or engaged by pushing the respective knob on the Flight Control Unit (FCU). Selected modes are engaged by pulling on the respective knob on the FCU. The exception to this rule is that LNAV engages automatically if a "DIR TO" is selected on the MCDU. The operational use is based on the following principle: - the short term pilot orders are entered through the FCU, - the long term pilot orders are entered through the MCDU. This principle leads to two distinct operations : manual and automatic controls.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AUTOPILOT/FLIGHT DIRECTOR (AP/FD) The autopilot (AP) and the flight director (FD) functions are: - stabilization of the aircraft around its center of gravity when the AP/FD system holds vertical speed or flight path angle and heading or track, - acquisition and hold of a flight path, - guidance of the aircraft at takeoff by holding runway axis and speed (available in the FD as long as the aircraft is on ground), - automatic landing and go around. The autopilot gives orders to control: - the position of the control surfaces on the three axes: pitch, roll and yaw, - the position of the nose wheel. These orders are taken into account by these computers: - FACs, ELACs, SECs and BSCU. The flight director generates guidance orders used in manual control. These orders are displayed on the Primary Flight Displays (PFDs) through the Display Management Computers (DMCs). NOTE :The DMCs deliver the information to the EFIS display units. The warnings of the ECAM system and those on the glareshield are generated by the FWCs. Autopilot guidance modes are selected on the FCU and MCDU. Engagement is confirmed on the FMA. The autopilots utilize ailerons, spoilers, and elevators to achieve the desired flight profile. Rudder inputs, yaw damping, and rudder trim are computed by the FACs and are automatic with an autopilot engaged.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The autopilot provides inputs to the nosewheel steering unit during the ROLLOUT mode of an autoland approach. The airplane has full autoland capability even on one engine. Autopilot Engagement Criteria The flight directors display FMGC and FCU commands on both PFDs. They come on automatically in the HDG/V/S mode (conventional crossbar display) when electrical power is applied to the aircraft electrical busses. A TRK/FPA mode is also available to display airplane track and vertical flight path angle information in place of the standard cross bars. FD pushbuttons located on the Flight Control Unit allow withdrawal of the FD from the PFDs. There are three flight director bars: - horizontal pitch bar, - vertical roll bar, - yaw bar. The pitch bar does not appear if there is no vertical active mode or in the roll out phase of land mode. The roll bar does not appear if there is no lateral mode active, roll out mode and runway mode up to 30 ft. The yaw bar only appears in runway mode up to 30 ft. radio altitude and during align or roll out phase of land mode. NOTE: If the aircraft is on the ground and no AP/FD mode is engaged, FD symbols are not displayed on the PFDs. One autopilot can be engaged on the ground if the engines are not running; it will disengage when the first engine is started. The airplane must be airborne for at least 5 seconds before an autopilot can be engaged in flight

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AUTOTHRUST The autothrust (A/THR) system is part of the auto flight system. The autothrust system ensures the functions below through the control of the thrust: - speed hold (pilot selection i.e. manual control or FMS computed i.e. auto control), - Mach hold (pilot selection i.e. manual control or FMS computed i.e. auto control), - thrust hold, - thrust reduction during flareout (RETARD), - protection against excessive angle of attack (ALPHA FLOOR function). The AFS is designed so that the AP/FD system and the A/THR function always control speed. To do this, the modes of the A/THR system are a function of the AP/ FD. If neither AP nor FD is engaged, the A/THR will be active in SPD/MACH mode only. The A/THR is integrated in the Flight Management and Guidance System (FMGS). The Engine Interface Units (EIUs) and the Electronic Engine Control (EECs) ensure the link between this system and the engines.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The use of digital engine control units simplify the autothrust system through: - the deletion of the autothrottle actuator (use of a digital link between the FMGC and the EECs), - the deletion of the limit thrust computation (already performed by the EECs), - the deletion of the limit thrust panel (the EECs make this selection automatically depending on the position of the throttle control levers), - the deletion of the TO/GA levers (the engagement of these modes is made through push action on the throttle control levers).

AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Thrust Setting In Manual thrust control, the thrust is dependent on the position of the throttle control levers. The throttle control levers move over a sector divided into three separate sections: - rear section: application of reverse thrust, - center section: normal throttle control levers displacement in flight from idle to max. climb (CL) thrust. The forward position of this section corresponds to the selection of the CL thrust limit (gate), - forward section: it has two mechanical devices which allow to select thrust limit modes below MCT/FLX TO (gate) and TO/GA (stop). Each EEC (one per engine) associates a thrust (Nl/EPR CMD) with the position of the corresponding throttle control lever. The selection of the limit thrust modes (CL, MCT, FLX TO, TO/GA) is made when the throttle control levers are placed in one of the gates (or stops) below: - CL (gate), - MCT/FLX TO (gate), - TO/GA (stop). When the throttle control levers are between two positions, the limit thrust mode selected is the one which corresponds to the most advanced position. On the ground, with engines stopped, the computation of the limit thrust is initialized on the mode which corresponds to the position of the throttle control levers. On the ground, with engines running, the computation of the limit thrust is made in the TO/GA mode.
22-54 FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY
AUTO FLIGHT
A319/A320 AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The gates for the MCT/FLX TO modes correspond to a same position. A specific logic has been adopted for the selection of these modes: - On the ground, if a fictitious temperature (FLX TO temperature) higher than the TAT is entered on the MCDU (TAKEOFF page), the limit thrust computation is made in FLX TO mode. The fictitious temperature is shown on the ECAM display unit together with the engine parameters as long as the FLX TO mode is engaged. For safety reasons, the fictitious temperature is frozen at takeoff as soon as a throttle control lever reaches the CL position, - In flight the FLX TO to MCT switching is made when the throttle control levers are moved from the MCT/FLX TO position to another position (TO/GA or CL) and returned to the MCT/FLX TO position. In autothrust mode, the thrust is computed by the autothrust (A/THR) system. When the A/THR function is engaged, it can be active or inactive. If the A/THR is active, two scenarios are possible. If alpha floor protection is inactive with the two throttle control levers between IDLE and CL, the engines are controlled by the A/THR function. The EEC limits the control of each engine to a max. rate depending on the position of the throttle control lever. NOTE: When the A/THR function is engaged, the normal position of the throttle control levers is the CL gate (two engine operation) or the MCT gate (in the event of an engine failure). The throttle control levers are not moved outside the climb gates unless the pilot wishes to limit the max. thrust.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION If Alpha floor protection is active, the A/ THR controlled thrust is equal to the TO/ GA thrust for any control lever position. For safety reasons, each EEC gives a low limit to the controlled thrust, according to the rate which corresponds to the position of the throttle control lever. The A/THR becomes inactive as soon as one throttle control lever is placed outside the IDLE/MCT zone. The two engines are controlled by the position of the throttle control levers. This condition will exist as long as the Alpha floor protection is not activated and if at least one throttle control lever stays beyond the IDLE/MCT zone. If there is a failure of the autothrust system, the thrust is frozen at the loss of the autothrust control. Upon the disengagement of the A/THR function (which occurs in its active phase), the thrust is frozen for the engines on which the associated throttle control lever is in the CL or MCT gate.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION NOTE: If a throttle control lever is not in one of the CL or MCT gates, there is a return to the manual thrust control on the corresponding engine. The controlled thrust of each engine becomes again dependent on the position of the throttle control lever as soon as the associated lever is outside the CL or MCT gates. If the autothrust system is intentionally disengaged by crew action, the thrust will smoothly recover to the actual position of the thrust levers.
JUN 97 A320 LIMITATION 1 AND 9 COURSE
If Alpha floor protection is active, the A/ THR controlled thrust is equal to the TO/ GA thrust for any control lever position. For safety reasons, each EEC gives a low limit to the controlled thrust, according to the rate which corresponds to the position of the throttle control lever. The A/THR becomes inactive as soon as one throttle control lever is placed outside the IDLE/MCT zone. The two engines are controlled by the position of the throttle control levers. This condition will exist as long as the Alpha floor protection is not activated and if at least one throttle control lever stays beyond the IDLE/MCT zone. If there is a failure of the autothrust system, the thrust is frozen at the loss of the autothrust control. Upon the disengagement of the A/THR function (which occurs in its active phase), the thrust is frozen for the engines on which the associated throttle control lever is in the CL or MCT gate.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Autothrust Engagement The A/THR function can be engaged in three different ways: - when the A/THR pushbutton switch on the FCU is pushed in, with aircraft on the ground and engines stopped or in flight at an altitude higher than 100 feet (except in LAND TRACK phase), - automatically further to the engagement of the AP/FD TAKE OFF or GO AROUND modes, - automatically if the ALPHA FLOOR condition detected by the FAC is present and if the altitude is higher than 100 feet, except during the first 15s after lift off. If an alpha floor condition is activated and the conditions that triggered the activation have disappeared, the only way to return to normal conditions again is to disengage the autothrust function. The autothrust function controls the engines automatically in order to maintain a given reference parameter for which the Flight Management and Guidance Computer calculates the thrust target. The source of the reference parameter is either the Flight Control Unit (FCU), the Electronic Engine Control (EEC) or the Flight Management and Guidance Computer (FMGC) itself. The FMGCs (A/ T'HR 1 and A/THR 2 functions) calculate a thrust target sent to the FCU. The thrust target is an EPR. According to priority rules, the FCU chooses the active autothrust function as the only source for both engines. The thrust target is sent through the Engine Interface Units (EIUs), then to the Electronic Engine Control (EECs) which control the engines according to this thrust target.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION In order to operate and monitor the autothrust function, the FMGCs get information from various systems and sensors. Autothrust Modes The Autothrust function works according to modes and their related reference parameter. There are 2 possibilities for this reference parameter: - it can be a speed or a Mach number. The source is either the FCU (value chosen by the pilots) or the FMGC itself, - it can be a thrust. The sources are either the EECs (they calculate the thrust limit) when the thrust limit is needed or the FMGC itself. The possible autothrust modes are: - SPEED, - MACH, - THRUST, - RETARD, - and Alpha Floor Protection. The choice of the mode is made by the FMGCs: - SPEED or MACH hold: -selected on FCU or managed by the FMGC. THRUST hold: thrust limit computed by the EECs (according to thrust lever position), idle thrust in descent or optimum thrust computed by FMGC, - RETARD: -thrust reduced to and maintained at idle during flare, - ALPHA FLOOR protection: -TO/GA thrust setting to protect the aircraft against excessive angle of attack and windshear. The autothrust modes depend on active vertical mode of the autopilot or flight director. When no vertical mode is engaged, the autothrust operates in SPEED/MACH mode.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Rudder Travel Limitation This function provides the limitation of the rudder travel by displacement of a stop as a function of the speed. The rudder travel limiting system operates using changeover technique. When both sides are engaged, side 1 has priority, side 2 is in standby. Side 2 is active when side 1 is disengaged (case of failure). The motor of the standby side is not supplied. Synchronization is achieved on the rudder position prior to engagement. Amplitude and speed limitations are introduced: - the amplitude limitation is such that the travel remains compatible with the limits on the aircraft structure, - the speed limitation prevents overstressing of the limitation unit. NOTE: Upon total loss of the rudder travel limiting function, a control relay enables the restoration of maximum rudder deflection as soon as slats are extended. The 26 V/400Hz power is applied to the primary windings of the position transducers directly from the busbars via the FAC circuit breakers. The emergency control of the motor operates on the same power supply. The 28VDC power is applied to the power electronic set from the FAC circuit breakers through a cutoff relay. This relay is controlled by the monitoring logic of the FAC.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The active system controls the limitation unit through its motor. It limits the rudder travel according to a corrected airspeed (VC). This parameter which is delivered by the ADIRS (Air Data/Inertial Reference System) is monitored by the FAC. Each motor has its own electronic power electronic set. FAC logic interrupts the power of the power electronic set on the side which is not active and thus deactivates the associated motor. Two position transducers enable slaving and monitoring of the channel. Return to low speed mode enables full rudder defelction. This mode is used in the event of a FAC or of the power electronic set failure. Normal operation of the rudder travel limitation unit is not available. This mode which is independent from the normal control, is only initiated at low speed (in slats extended configuration). The FAC internal logic controls a relay which switches the limitation unit to a control order called emergency control order (independent 26V/400Hz power supply).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Rudder Trim The rudder trim function provides manual control by a rudder trim control switch located on the center pedestal. In addition the ELACs compute a command signal for rudder deflection (normal yaw damping law including recovery of engine failure) performed by the trim subsystem in manual flight. Reset of the rudder trim position is possible using a pushbutton switch located on the center pedestal. Automatic control when the autopilot is engaged provides the accomplishment of yaw autopilot command and the recovery of engine failure. The system consists of: - an electromechanical actuator which comprises two three phase synchronous motors connected to a reduction gear by rigid linkage, - two Flight Augmentation Computers (FAC 1 and FAC 2), - four transducer units (RVDT) configured in such a way that a single failure would not affect all the units at the same time, - two engage FLT CTL/FAC pushbutton switches (with FAULT/OFF legend) common to the yaw damper and to the rudder trim (one per FAC), - a rudder trim control switch located on the RUD TRIM control panel on the center pedestal for manual trim control, - a RUD TRIM/RESET pushbutton switch (momentary switch), on the RUD TRIM control panel. - A rudder trim indicator with liquid crystal display located on the left of the rudder trim control switch.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The system operates using changeover technique. When the two channels are engaged: - channel 1 has priority, - channel 2 is synchronized on the position of the actuator through a mechanical linkage. The standby channel is not energized. The control order is not interrupted. Each channel is duplicated and monitored: - the COMMAND side of the FAC slaves the position of the system, - the MONITOR side monitors the system. The rudder trim function ensures a trimmed value of the rudder. This value is reproduced at the rudder pedals. Rudder trim is obtained either manually or automatically. The value appears: - on the rudder trim indicator, - on the display unit of the ECAM system. The resulting deflection is maintained even in case of total loss of the function. This permits a stabilized value in the event of AP loss when an engine failure occurs. When the changeover principle is retained: - The side 1 has priority through the side 1 signal, - interruption of the actuator enable signals on the standby channel, - automatic engagement of the standby channel upon loss or disengagement of channel 1.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Yaw Damper The yaw damper function ensures: - in manual control, the accomplishment of the yaw orders from the elevator aileron computer (ELAC) (stabilization and manual turn coordination). It also provides a yaw damping degraded law in the event of ELAC failure (alternate law), - in automatic control, the accomplishment of the autopilot orders from the Flight Management and Guidance Computer (FMGC) for turn coordination and guidance (align and roll out). It also ensures, in automatic flight, assistance in engine failure recovery and yaw stability.

Each servoactuator includes: - a Linear Variable Differential Transducer (LVDT), - two Flight Augmentation Computers (FAC 1 and FAC 2), - two Rotary Variable Differential Transducers (RVDT) located on the output shaft common to both servoactuators, - two FLT CTL/FAC pushbutton switches common to the RUD TRIM and RTL functions (for FAC engagement). The ELACs compute the corresponding data and transmit them to the rudder surface by a servo loop of the yaw damper (FAC). The yaw damper function provides manual yaw stabilization.

It also provides engine failure recovery when the autopilot is engaged (the ELACs provide this function in manual flight). All the computations specific to this function (laws, logic and engagement) are duplicated in each FAC. The system operates using changeover technique. When both yaw damper 1 and yaw damper 2 are engaged, channel 1 has priority. Channel 2 is synchronized on the position of the other channel and its associated servoactuator is depressurized. This depressurization is performed by two electrovalves. Each electrovalve drives a bypass valve. Only one electrovalve is required to depressurize the servoactuator. A pressure switch monitors the status of the electrovalves. If the two servoactuators are not pressurized, the rudder is centered to the neutral position (zero or the trimmed value). The rudder receives the yaw damper orders, but they are not sent to the rudder pedals. The Green hydraulic system supplies the servoactuator No. 1 associated with FAC 1. The Yellow hydraulic system supplies the servoactuator No. 2 associated with FAC 2. When the AP is disengaged, the yaw damper function is linked to the ELAC. In normal mode, on the roll axis: - the ELAC generates a lateral deflection law which integrates the control of the rudder (stabilization and turn coordination). The yaw damper carries out this law and indicates the correct achievement of this function through a hardwired discrete.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION FLIGHT ENVELOPE PROTECTION The Flight Augmentation Computer (FAC) fulfills several functions independently of the engagement status of the FLT CTL/FAC pushbutton switches. The FAC monitors the flight envelope and computes the maneuvering speeds. This function provides the Primary Flight Display (PFD) with the following data displayed on the speed scale: - stall warning speed (VSW), - lower selectable speed (VLS), - maximum speed (V MAX), - maximum operational speed (V MAX OP) giving margin against buffeting, - airspeed tendency (VC TREND), - maneuvering speed (V MAN) function of the flap and slat positions, - minimum flap retraction speed (V3), - minimum slat retraction speed (V4), - predictive VFE at next flap/slat position (V FEN, - In addition, V MAX and VLS are used in the FMGC for speed limitation of AP/ FD and A/THR functions. The FAC computes the conditions of activation of the alpha floor mode of the A/THR functions (angle of attack protection in case of windshear). These functions are necessary for: - control of the speed scale on the Primary, - Flight Displays (PFDs), - adaptation of gains of the Flight Management and Guidance Computer (FMGC) and Elevator Aileron Computer (ELAC), - distribution of signals for the FMGC control laws, - protection of the flight envelope in automatic flight (speed limits for the FMGC, alphafloor for the autothrust),

The FAC computes: - the weight and the center of gravity, - the characteristic speed data, - the aerodynamic flightpath angle and the potential flightpath angle, - the alphafloor protection, - the position of the rudder trim for the ECAM system. The alpha floor protection is calculated in the FAC. This function protects the aircraft against excessive angle of attack. To do this, a comparison is made between the aircraft angle of attack and predetermined thresholds dependent on aircraft configuration. Beyond the thresholds, the FAC transmits a command signal to the autothrust which will apply full thrust. This also protects the aircraft against longitudinal wind variations (windshear) in approach by determining a wind acceleration (deduced from the difference between ground acceleration and air acceleration). At the second detected or undetected failure of the ADIRS, the alphafloor fuction is lost.

FLIGHT ENVELOPE PROTECTION The Flight Augmentation Computer (FAC) fulfills several functions independently of the engagement status of the FLT CTL/FAC pushbutton switches. The FAC monitors the flight envelope and computes the maneuvering speeds. This function provides the Primary Flight Display (PFD) with the following data displayed on the speed scale: - stall warning speed (VSW), - lower selectable speed (VLS), - maximum speed (V MAX), - maximum operational speed (V MAX OP) giving margin against buffeting, - airspeed tendency (VC TREND), - maneuvering speed (V MAN) function of the flap and slat positions, - minimum flap retraction speed (V3), - minimum slat retraction speed (V4), - predictive VFE at next flap/slat position (V FEN, - In addition, V MAX and VLS are used in the FMGC for speed limitation of AP/ FD and A/THR functions. The FAC computes the conditions of activation of the alpha floor mode of the A/THR functions (angle of attack protection in case of windshear). These functions are necessary for: - control of the speed scale on the Primary, - Flight Displays (PFDs), - adaptation of gains of the Flight Management and Guidance Computer (FMGC) and Elevator Aileron Computer (ELAC), - distribution of signals for the FMGC control laws, - protection of the flight envelope in automatic flight (speed limits for the FMGC, alphafloor for the autothrust),

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The ELAC direct computation of the alpha floor protection is taken into account directly as soon as the first detection is made either by the FAC or by the ELAC. Windshear is a sudden change in wind direction and/or speed over a relatively short distance in the atmosphere. This can have an effect on aircraft performance during takeoff and landing phases. In windshear conditions, the principle is to reduce the detection threshold according to the detected windshear in order to allow the possibility of performing a go around maneuver sooner.
AUTO FLIGHT DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The Low Energy Function is to prevent the A/C from entering a low energy situation by alerting the pilot through an audio warning: - "SPEED.. SPEED.. SPEED". The crew has to increase thrust and the low energy warning disappears as soon as: - thrust level is high enough or, - alpha floor protection is triggered or, - pitch go around mode is triggered. Low energy warning is available in flaps configuration 2, 3 and FULL and between 100 ft and 2000 ft. RA.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION FLIGHT MANAGEMENT AND GUIDANCE SYSTEM (FMGS) The FMGS provides automatic navigation and flight guidance, map displays, autothrottle management and thrust limits, and performance optimization. It greatly reduces flight deck workload and increases efficiency by eliminating many routine tasks and computations normally performed by the crew. After entry of the flight plan and other required performance data, the FMGS will generate the optimum flight profile from departure to arrival, provide automatic aircraft guidance and compute current and predicted progress along the flight plan. The major functions of the FMGS include: - storage of navigation and performance data. The navigation data base is updated by Maintenance on a 28day cycle, - data entry for alignment of the inertial reference units (ADIRS), - entry, storage, and modification of flight plans, including company routes, SIDs, STARS, instrument approaches, airways, and pilot defined waypoints, - performance optimization, including fuel computations, cost index speed computations, and optimum vertical profiles, - map displays, including routes, navaids, waypoints, etc., - continuous calculation of the aircraft position, - automatic and manual navaid tuning, - aransmission of pitch, yaw, roll, and thrust commands to the autopilots, flight directors, and autothrottle system.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The MCDU is considered the long-term interface between the pilot and the FMGC. Functions of the MCDU include selection of specific pages for insertion and display of navigation and performance information, and interface with other peripherals including ACARS and AIDS (aircraft integrated data system, for Maintenance monitoring and reporting). If data is entered on the MCDU that is illogical or beyond the capabilities of the airplane, the entry will either produce no effect or will generate an advisory message. The FCU, located on the glareshield, is the short-term interface between the pilot and the FMGC. It is used to modify any flight parameter on a short-term basis, and is also used to select operational modes for the autopilots, flight directors, and autothrottles. While the mode switches have light bars to indicate that a specific mode has been selected, the only confirmation of the engaged mode is the appropriate annunciation on the FMA. With an FD switch selected on, the position of the throttles actuates the flight directors for takeoff and go around modes and FMGS position updating to the takeoff runway. FMGC Operation Each FMGC is linked to its own (onside) MCDU, radio master panel (RMP), and electronic flight instruments (EFIS). There are three possible modes of operation: Dual, Independent, and Single. The normal mode of operation is the dual mode. Each FMGC makes its own computations of airspeed, airplane position, etc., and exchange data through a crosstalk bus. One FMGC is the "master" and the other is the "slave." Entries on either MCDU are

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION transmitted to both FMGCs. FMGC 1 is the master (unless it has failed) when both FD switches are selected off for autothrottle operation. If a significant discrepancy exists, the FMGCs degrade to the Independent Mode. In the Independent Mode, both FMGCs continue to operate; however, there is no cross comparison or validation of data. Each MCDU provides inputs only to the onside FMGC, RMP, and EFIS. Independent operation is indicated by the "INDEPENDENT OPERATION" message in the MCDU scratchpad. Raw data must be used to ensure navigation accuracy in the independent mode, since each FMGC is computing airspeed, position, etc., without comparison to the other FMGC, and map displays may differ. Single Mode is automatically selected if one FMGC fails. Entries on either MCDU are transferred to the operating FMGC. The message information is exchanged between both FMGCs for cross comparison and validation. The following conditions exist during the normal mode of operation: - If one AP switch is selected on, the related FMGC is the master, - If two AP switches are selected on, FMGC 1 is the master, If neither AP switch is selected on: - FMGC 1 is the master when the Captain's FD switch is selected on, - FMGC 2 is the master when the First Officer's FD switch is selected on and the Captain's FD switch is selected off. FMGC "OPP FMGC IN PROGRESS" will appear in the MCDU scratchpad. In the Single Mode, both NDs must be set to the same mode and range or a message "SET OFFSIDE RNG/MODE" message will appear on the ND.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION FMGS Position Computation Each FMGC receives position information from all three IRS units and computes an average position called the "MIX IRS" position. If one IRS fails, each FMGC uses only the onside IRS (if operable) or IRS 3. The MIX IRS position is used as the FMGC position until the throttles are advanced during the takeoff roll. At takeoff, the FMGC position is updated to the runway threshold coordinates stored in the data base for the departure runway entered in the flight plan. If the wrong runway was entered, a map shift will occur shortly after takeoff as radio position updating "moves" the airplane toward the known (radio) position. In flight, each FMGC computes a radio position using DME/DME, VOR/DME, or ILS/DME (during approach only). The FMGC position is based on the IRS MIX position updated by the radio position. A comparison between the MIX IRS position and the radio position is continuously updated and called a "bias." If the radio position is lost, the latest bias is memorized and FMGC position becomes the MIX IRS position plus the bias. The bias will remain constant until radio position updating is restored. NOTE: Aircraft with GPS installed will use GPS data as a input for FMGC position updating. The FMGC will only use GPS data if the vailidy is high.

The DATA INDEX page (MCDU DATA key) allows access to the POSITION MONITOR page. The accuracy of the position computation is displayed on the PROGRESS page (MCDU PROG key). The accuracy can be HIGH or LOW. This is computed by the FM part of the FMGC according to the Esitmated Position Error (EPE). Generally, the EPE is set after IR alignment, updated at take-off on the runway threshold to 0.4 Nm. A comparison is done between the current EPE (due to IR drift and radio drift) and a target EPE. HIGH or LOW will be indicated depending on the error.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Flight Plan Indication The primary flight plan is initialized by entering a company route or a city pair from the INIT page A. The departure airport provides the position used to align the IR. Company route or city pair, originated by the navigation data base, provides the leg stringing from departure airport to arrival airport via waypoints. If there is no preprogammed plan with a city pair, the crew has to define enroute waypoints.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION There is also a alternate selection to the primary flight plan. This provides for an alternate flight plan from the primary destination to an alterante destination. The primary flight plan, accessible by the MCDU F-PLN key, is displayed in green and the TO waypoint is displayed in white. The same colors also apply to the ND display. When the flight plan is acitve, the line is continous. If the flight plan is not active, the line is dashed. The alternate flight plan is shown if it is activated or slewed during preflight in PLAN mode.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION FLIGHT PLANNING Flight Plan The flight plan is defined by various elements which indicate the routes the aircraft must follow with the limitations along these routes. The elements are mainly taken from the data bases or directly entered by the crew, limitations are mainly speed, altitude or time constraints originated by the Air Traffic Control (ATC). The function that integrates these elements and limitations to construct a flight plan is called flight planning, in addition, the Flight Management (FM) part provides the aircraft position and the follow up of the flight plan. Everything can be prepared prior to the take off but can also be modified quickly and easily during the flight operation. In case of a FM problem, the remaining valid FMGC is used as sole source to command both MCDUs and NDs after automatic switching. Navigation Data Base The navigation data base provides all necessary information for flight plan construction and follow up. The crew will either select an already assembled flight plan (company route (CO ROUTE)), or will build his own flight plan, using the existing data base contents. This data base has tailored coverage, updated every 28 days. Some room is kept to allow manual entry of 20 navaids, 20 waypoints, 3 routes and 10 runways. The data base cannot be erased, but the manually entered data can be erased. Two cycle data bases can be inserted and the selection is made automatically using data from the aircraft clock or manually.

The data base is translated into binary format and recorded on a 3.5 inch disk and is sent to each airline on day 21 of the current 28 day cycle. It may be loaded upon delivery and the crew can still access the current cycle data until the next cycle data becomes effective. This is done on the AIRCRAFT STATUS page of the MCDU. Lateral Flight Plan The flight plan provides the sequential track changes at each waypoint within 3 main sections. - DEPARTURE: initial fix (origin airport), Standard Instrument Departure (SID), - EN ROUTE: waypoints, navigation aids, - ARRIVAL: Standard Terminal Arrival Route (STAR), approach, missed approach, go around. The steering order can be followed by the crew or the autopilot with the NAV mode selected.
22-85 A320 LIMITATION 1 AND 9 COURSE
FLIGHT PLANNING Flight Plan The flight plan is defined by various elements which indicate the routes the aircraft must follow with the limitations along these routes. The elements are mainly taken from the data bases or directly entered by the crew, limitations are mainly speed, altitude or time constraints originated by the Air Traffic Control (ATC). The function that integrates these elements and limitations to construct a flight plan is called flight planning, in addition, the Flight Management (FM) part provides the aircraft position and the follow up of the flight plan. Everything can be prepared prior to the take off but can also be modified quickly and easily during the flight operation. In case of a FM problem, the remaining valid FMGC is used as sole source to command both MCDUs and NDs after automatic switching. Navigation Data Base The navigation data base provides all necessary information for flight plan construction and follow up. The crew will either select an already assembled flight plan (company route (CO ROUTE)), or will build his own flight plan, using the existing data base contents. This data base has tailored coverage, updated every 28 days. Some room is kept to allow manual entry of 20 navaids, 20 waypoints, 3 routes and 10 runways. The data base cannot be erased, but the manually entered data can be erased. Two cycle data bases can be inserted and the selection is made automatically using data from the aircraft clock or manually.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Vertical Flight Plan The vertical flight plan provides an accurate flight path prediction which requires a precise data of current and forecasted wind, temperature and the flight path to be flown. The vertical flight plan is divided into several flight phases: - PREFLIGHT: fuel, weight and V2 insertions, - TAKE OFF: speed management, thrust reduction altitude, acceleration altitude, - CLIMB: speed limit, speed management, - CRUISE: top of climb, cruise altitude, top of descent, - DESCENT: speed limit, speed management, deceleration, - APPROACH/MISSED APPROACH/ GO AROUND: thrust reduction altitude, acceleration altitude. The vertical steering order can be followed by the crew or the autopilot. Any level change in the vertical profile is initiated after a push action on a level change selector, except for departure when the vertical profile is armed on ground and will be automatically active after Take Off phase. Performance The performance data base contains optimal speed schedules for the expected range of operating conditions. Several performance modes are available to the operator with the primary one being the ECON mode. The ECON mode can be tailored to meet specific airline requirements using a selectable Cost Index (CI). A Cost Index is defined as the ratio of cost of time to the cost of fuel.

FUEL and TIME are the main "parameters" in this particular part of the FM function and direct the airline choice. Depending on the crew selection on the EFIS control panel of the Flight Control Unit (FCU), the flight plan is shown in relation to the aircraft position on the ROSE-NAV or ARC modes. The aircraft symbol is fixed and the chart moves. ROSE-NAV mode allows 360° display relative to the aircraft symbal. ARC mode only shows a 180° arc in front of the aircraft. In plan mode, the flight plan is shown with NORTH at the top of the screen centered on the TO waypoint. Depending on the range range selection, the aircraft symbol may not be in view. The flight plan can be reviewed by scrolling through the flight plan via the MCDU. The slew keys or NEXT PAGE key will move the display on the Navigation Display (ND) as the flight plan is reviewed. The Primary Flight Display (PFD) shows the FM guidance indication following engagement of the AP/FD and longitudinal modes. MCDU Failure If a multipurpose Control and Display Unit (MCDU) failure occurs on side 1 or 2, and the FMGC is still functioning, the EFIS indications will function noramlly.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION DATABASE LOADING Every 28 days, a new data base must be uploaded to each FMGC. One FMGC must be loaded with a data base loader. There is a connector above the F/O overhead panel. The loading of the FMGC will take about 20 minutes. NOTE: It is imperative that maintenance manual procedures are followed when loading the FMGCs. Failure to adhere to maintenance manual references can damage the FMGCs. Once one FMGC has been loaded, its new data base can be transferred to the opposite FMGC. This is accomplished by uitlizing the MCDU.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION When the FMGC status page is accessed, it will display an "ACTIVATE CROSSLOAD" prompt. This prompt will be displayed when the FMGCs detect different data bases. Pushing this prompt causes the field to swtich to "CONFIRM" crossload. Pushing the prompt again enables the crossloading and transfers the data base to the receiving database. NOTE: Always initialize the crossload from the side that has the new data base. This will prevent the new data base from being overwritten with an older data base from the opposite FMGC. The airplane status page on the MCDU will display automatically on aircraft power-up or can be manually selected from the DATA INDEX page. The active data base will be displayed in large letters and the second data base will be displayed in small letters. NOTE: Cycling between the two data bases will erase any current flight plan that has been inserted into the MCDU.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Each FMGC computes the landing capability of the system made up of the two FMGCs: - when the AP and FD are disengaged for one FMGC, the lading capability corresponds to the category of the only FMGC likely provide automatic landing, - when the AP or FD is engaged for the two FMGCs, the landing capability corresponds to the lowest category coming from the 2 FMGCs. Regardless of the flight phase, each FMGC computes the following three items of information according to the validity of sensors and the AP availability: - LAND 2 INOP, - LAND 3 FAIL PASSIVE INOP, - LAND 3 FAIL OPERATIONAL INOP. On the ECAM, loss of availability of the various landing categories is displayed according to logic that primarily takes into account loss of validity of the lowest landing category provided by the two FMGCs. The landing capability is sent to the EFIS. LAND 3 FAIL OPERATIONAL capability is obtained when the two FMGCs have the LAND 3 FAIL operational capabilty. In this configuration, the objective is to continue automatic landing in spite of the simple failures that might affect the various systems used during this phase. NOTE: Below 100 ft. (radio altimeter), LAND 3 FAIL PASSIVE and LAND 3 FAIL OPERATIONAL categories are memorized until the LAND TRACK mode is disengaged or the 2 APs are disengaged. A failure occuring below 100 ft. will not cause any capability downgrading. The CAT 1, CAT 2, CAT 3 SINGLE and CAT 3 DUAL messages are displayed on the FMA according to the landing capabilities sent by the FMGCs.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AFS MAINTENANCE SYSTEM The Auto Flight System is a type 1 system capable of two-way communication with the Centralized Fault Display Interface Unit. Line maintenance of the AFS is based on the use of the Fault Isolation and Detection System (FIDS) active in the FAC 1 and of the BITEs located in the various AFS computers. Access to the fault data is done through the MCDU via the CFDIU. Like other systems, the CFDIU works in NORMAL MODE and MENU MODE. Fault Isolation Detection System (FIDS) FIDS is a card physically located in each FAC. Both FACs are interchangeable, but only FAC 1 FIDS is active due to pin programming.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The FIDS is used as a SYSTEM BITE to centalize maintenance information. FIDS is linked in acquisition and reception to the Centralized Fault Display Interface Unit (CFDIU) and is connected to the BITEs of the various AFS computers. It receives commands from the CFDIU, interprets these commands and transfers them, if applicable, to the various BITEs concerned. It receives malfunction reports from the BITEs, manages these reports, and, if applicable, consolidates the BITE diagnosis (occurence, correlation ) and generates a fault message which is sent to the CFDIU. NOTE: If FIDS fails, the BITEs continue to work, the results can be read in the shop or after FAC 1 has been changed.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION GENERAL The aircraft has 3 VHF radios installed and provisions for two HF radios; however, the associated HF transceivers are not currently installed. All communications radios are controlled from any one of 3 Radio Management Panels (RMP’s). Two RMP’s are located on the control pedestal and a third is located on the overhead panel. The 3 identical RMP’s provide control of all VHF and HF communication systems. RMP’s 1 and 2 provide back-up to the Flight Management and Guidance Computers (FMGC’s) for navigation radio tuning. RMP’s 1 and 2 are connected directly to all VHF and HF transceivers; RMP 3 is connected through RMP’s 1 and 2. If RMP 1 or 2 is turned off, RMP 3 is connected directly to the respective transceiver. If two panels fail, the remaining one can control all VHF and HF transceivers. In the emergency electrical configuration, only RMP 1 is functional.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Each Audio Control Panel (ACP) is located by its respective RMP. The panels provide the transmission and reception of all communication, navigation, interphone (flight, service,and cabin), and PA systems. The transmission keys also have CALL lights that illuminate with SELCAL on the VHF and HF radios, ACARS call on the number 3 VHF, and Flight Attendant or ground crew call on the flight, service, and cabin interphone. A flight interphone system provides communication between flight deck crew members and between the flight deck and a ground crew member via a jack at the external power panel (108VU) located at the nose gear. A service interphone system provides communication between the flight deck and maintenance personnel through a series of jacks located on the exterior of the aircraft.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The NAVigation guarded push-button key allows the radio navigation systems to be selected, in back-up mode only, when the Flight Management Guidance and Computers (FMGC’s) have failed. In radio navigation back-up mode, navigation frequency/course selection is performed using the dual selector knob. The latching ON/OFF switch allows the crew to set the RMP on or off. RMP 1 and RMP 2 have two ARINC 429 data buses connected to the radio communication transceivers: - COM BUS 1 delivers the VHF 1 frequency, - COM BUS 2 delivers the VHF 2 frequency. 3 dialog buses ensure exchange of information between the 3 RMP’s. Each RMP periodically transmits its contents on its dialog bus. The ILS 1 and 2 receivers always operate on the same frequency which can be controlled from any RMP, either directly or through the cross talk bus.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION In normal operation, the navigation systems are tuned automatically (or manually from the MCDU’s) by the FMGC’s via internal relays of the onside RMP’s. The RMP is thus transparent to the onside FMGC. In case of failure of one FMCG, the onside navigation systems are tuned directly by the remaining FMGC. The BITE functions of the system are available through the CFDS. In order to increment the fault memories in case of CFDIU failure, each RMP receives a discrete giving the landing gear configuration. RMP 1 receives this discrete from LGCIU 1, and RMP 2 and 3 from LGCIU 2. The system architecture allows access to all communication functions in case of failure of any RMP. But, if RMP 1 or RMP 2 fails, the onside navigation systems are lost. An RMP failure is indicated by the blanking of the display windows. Should a failure occur, the failed RMP has to be switched off. When selected off, the RMP sends a discrete signal which enables system reconfiguration.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Following is an explanation of RMP use. The ON/OFF switch controls the power supply of the RMP. To select a new frequency for VHF 1, the VHF 1 key must be pressed. VHF 1 light comes on as VHF 1 is selected. The ACTIVE window displays the current operating frequency for VHF 1, while the STBY/CRS (standby/course) window displays the standby frequency. A new frequency is selected by rotating the two concentric knobs below the STBY/CRS window and can be activated by pressing the transfer key. After pressing the transfer key, the frequency values interchange. VHF 1 now operates on a new frequency.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION NOTE: The SEL light indicates selection of a radio system by an other RMP than the RMP normally allocated to it. For example, the SEL light will come on white in case of selection of VHF 2 on the RMP 1 or in case of selection of VHF 1 on RMP 2. In this case, SEL light also illuminates on the RMP to which the system is normally dedicated. The NAVigation guarded push-button key allows the radio navigation systems to be selected, in back-up mode only, when the Flight Management and Guidance Computers (FMGC’s) have failed.

Audio System - AMU and ACP’s The Audio Management Unit (AMU) centralizes the audio signals used by the crew. The crew controls and operates these functions independently with the Audio Control Panels (ACP’s). The audio management system provides: - radio communication and navigation for crew utilization, - flight interphone system, - SELective CALling system (SELCAL), - and visual indication of ground crew and cabin attendant calls. Each flight deck occupant position contains the following audio equipment: - oxygen mask, - headset, - boomset, - handmike, - Audio Control Panel. The 4th occupant station is equipped with only a headset jack. In transmission mode, the AMU collects microphone inputs of the various crew stations and directs them to the communication transceivers. In reception mode, the AMU collects the audio outputs of the communication transceivers and navigation receivers and directs them to the various crew stations. The flight interphone function allows interphone links between the various crew stations in the flight deck and with the ground crew through the jack at the external power receptacle panel (108VU). The SELCAL system enables reception with aural and visual indication of calls from ground stations equipped with a coding device. Cabin attendant and mechanic calls are indicated on the Audio Control Panels.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Static Discharging In flight, the aircraft behaves like a Faraday cage and needs to be discharged. The static dischargers reduce static electricity discharging noise and ensure good quality radio transmission (VHF and HF if installed), without interference. The aircraft must be equipped with at least 80 percent of its static dischargers for correct operation. There are 41 static dischargers located around the aircraft extremities: - 4 on each wing tip fence (8), - 1 on each elevator tip (2), - 1 on each horizontal stabilizer tip (2), - 1 on the vertical stabilizer tip, - 1 on the rudder tip, - 1 on each wing fixed trailing edge (2), - 4 on each aileron trailing edge (8) - 3 on each elevator trailing edge (6), - 3 on the rudder trailing edge, - 1 on each flap track movable fairing (6), - 1 on each engine pylon rear fairing (2). If the aircraft has been struck by lightning the static dischargers are the first elements destroyed and they can be easily replaced. Two kinds of static dischargers are fitted, depending on their location on the aircraft. INTERPHONE SYSTEM Flight Interphone The INT position of the INT/RAD selector switch enables use of the flight interphone by the flight crew regardless of ACP transmission key selection. This is a stable position. Boom and oxygen mask mikes are hot. The INT reception knob is selected to control the audio level.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION NOTE: The radio function has priority over the flight interphone function. With the INT/RAD switch in INT position, the flight interphone is momentarily cut out during a radio emission (radio key selected and hand microphone or side-stick Push-To-Talk switch actuated). The RAD position of the INT/RAD selector switch puts the preselected channel in emission. This is an unstable (momentary) position. This position acts like the selection of the hand microphone push-button or as the Push-To-Talk push-button of the sidestick. The flight interphone can also be used like a VHF transceiver. Selection of the INT transmission key lights the green bars, indicating that the flight interphone is ready to operate. Pressing and releasing the INT reception knob enables adjustment of the interphone level. When selected, the knob pops up and comes on white. In addition to allowing flight crew interphone communications, the flight interphone can also be used for flight crew to ground mechanic communications.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Service Interphone The service interphone system enables voice communications, on the ground, between flight crew and the ground service personnel. Communication can also be made between the attendant stations and the dedicated service interphone jacks around or in the aircraft. The service interphone system is made up of eight interphone jacks and a service interphone OVRD switch, with an integral indicator light located on the overhead maintenance panel (50VU) in the flight deck. The audio lines from the flight deck, cabin and interphone jacks are routed to the amplifiers in both Cabin Intercommunication Data System (CIDS) directors. The service interphone system is integrated into CIDS directors. There are two modes in which the service interphone system is operational; the automatic mode and the manual mode.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The automatic mode functions on the ground only, with the landing gear down and compressed for more than 10 seconds. The Landing Gear Interface Units (LGCIU’s) send a ground signal to the service interphone system which is integrated in CIDS directors. The manual mode functions when the service interphone override push-button 15RJ, on the overhead panel (50VU), is pressed. A white ON light illuminates. The aircraft is on the ground with no signal from the LGCIU’s. A ground signal is sent to CIDS directors. To establish communication from the flight deck to the service interphone jacks, the CABin key on any Audio Control Panel (ACP), must be pressed. NOTE: The service interphone does not have its own transmission key or reception knob on the ACP’s. It shares the CAB key and knob with the cabin interphone system.

Communication is always initiated by a key pad procedure on an attendant handset or by push-buttons on the CALLS panel in the flight deck. The recipient of an intended call receives a visual and audible signal. A CIDS director accepts audio signals from the various interphone sources in the aircraft and assigns priorities to each source. The director performs telephone exchange switching and call functions from the flight deck call switch settings or the attendant handset keypad entries. All of this is done with reference to the parameters defined in the Cabin Assignment Module (CAM). Chimes are transmitted via the top line data bus and the Passenger Address loudspeakers. In the flight deck, integral lamps in the call switches annunciate interphone calls. In the cabin, Area Call Panels (on the ceiling near attendant stations) and Attendant Indication Panels (near the attendant handsets) are used for annunciation. All communication modes are handled with respect to the predefined priorities listed in order below: - emergency call, - call from flight deck including an all call from the flight deck, and a normal call from the flight deck, - ALL CALL from cabin station, - normal call from cabin station. Additionally, all interphone sources have interrelated priorities, as assigned in the CAM.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION If more than one interphone source requests the same communication mode, the source with the higher priority will have preference. If they have the same priority, the interphone source which was dialed first will be given preference. For calls from the cabin, interphone communications are performed with the attendant station handsets which are connected to the type B DEU’s. To initiate a call, take the handset off the hook and then push the desired button on the handset keyboard. All attendant stations in the cabin are equipped with a reset key to reset the interphone function, and permit a new call procedure. Calls from the flight deck are initiated from the call panel which is connected to the directors. Connection of the flight deck to the cabin interphone system is performed using the CAB key and knob on one of the Audio Control Panels (ACP’s). The call push-buttons on the CALL panel enable the crew to select the attendant station. When an all attendant call communication is selected from the cabin, all the called stations are switched to a common link to the calling station except the flight deck. In the cabin, on the handset keyboard, the ALL ATTND key must be pressed. For an emergency call from the flight deck, the guarded emergency call pushbutton (EMER) on the CALL panel must be pressed. An EMER CALL from the flight deck initiates a communication between the flight deck and all cabin stations on a common link.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION A ground network transmits data from the ground receiver to the airline main base. NOTE: The crew can at any time take the control of the VHF 3 to perform voice communication. ACARS applications are dedicated to maintenance and engineering operations and also to crew operations and information. ACARS application depends on operational programs defined by each airline. The ACARS MU is supplied with 115 VAC from the 115 VAC BUS 1 1XP (sub busbar 103XP) through the circuit breaker 2RB located in the flight deck on the panel 121VU. The Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting System Management Unit (ACARS MU) manages all tasks related to the ACARS. The VHF 3 transceiver is normally used for ACARS data transmission and reception, but it can also be used in conventional radio communication mode. The VHF 3 transceiver receives a voice/ data discrete signal which determines the mode of operation: DATA mode or RADIO mode. In DATA mode, the transceiver is keyed by the ACARS MU through the DATA keyline. The digital data exchanged between the MU and the VHF 3 transceiver are coded by 1200 and 2400 hertz tones. In RADIO-COMMUNICATION mode, the transceiver can be tuned either by the ACARS MU or by any RMP. This is determined by the port select discrete signal sent by the ACARS MU. Each RMP receives the same port select discrete signal as VHF 3 from the ACARS MU.

NOTE: If the engines are shut down, the CVR must first be energized by pressing the GND CTL push-button on the RCDR panel. The CVR TEST is initiated by pressing the CVR TEST push-button on the RCDR panel. A 600 Hz test tone is applied sequentially during 0.8 seconds to each of the 4 tracks. Provided the aircraft is on ground, the signal should be heard through the headsets. The signal should also be heard through the loudspeakers if the right and left main landing gear shock absorbers are compressed and the parking brake is applied. A CVR HEADSET jack is also provided on the flight deck maintenance panel (50VU) for monitoring of the test. NOTE: Prior to this test, the CVR must be energized by pressing the GND CTL push-button with the engines not running.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION CIDS CIDS Philosophy Changing market demands require flexibility in customized cabin layouts and optional cabin systems. With the Cabin Intercommunication Data System (CIDS), the operator is able to change the cabin layout without hardware changes (i.e. cabin loudspeakers, wiring, etc.). This can be done simply by entering, on board, new cabin parameters in the software. CIDS is a microprocessor based system. It monitors, tests, operates and provides control and monitoring of the cabin functions. To manage various functions, CIDS has a central unit, the CIDS director. It is linked to the Forward Attendant Panel (FAP) for control and monitoring of the cabin functions. The director then communicates, through a bus system, with Decoder Encoder Units (DEU’s). The DEU’s send (and receive) information to (and from) the cabin, passenger, and crew systems. The director has interfaces to other aircraft systems. Through a Programming and Test Panel (PTP), CIDS can be programmed to customer demand. The PTP is also used to test the entire CIDS.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The directors are continuously energized when the essential and service busbars are energized. In normal operation, the essential busbar supplies: - the active director, - all the circuitry in DEU A which is necessary for PA operation, - all the circuitry in DEU B which is necessary for PA and interphone. In normal operation, the service busbar supplies: - the active and the second directors, - the remaining non essential circuitry of the DEU’s, - the Programming and Test Panel, - the Forward Attendant Panel. The service busbar also supplies the Area call Panels (ACP’s), the Attendant Indication Panels (AIP’s) and the Aft Attendant Panel (AAP), via DEU B. If service bus power is unavailable, the following items of equipment are inoperative: - the second director, - the non essential DEU circuits, - the PTP and the FAP. The Attendant Indication Panels and the Area Call Panels are also inoperative because they are supplied with service bus power by the type B DEU’s. If a PA operation is done, the top line cutoff relay 106RH is no longer energized, and then the essential busbar supplies the circuitry in the type A DEU which is necessary for PA operation. When the essential bus power is unavailable, circuitry in the directors and DEU’s switches the essential circuits to the service busbar. This ensures full CIDS capabilities except for emergency mode operation.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION If the aircraft loses main power (the service bus and the essential bus), and the emergency exit lights switch is set to ARM or ON, all CIDS units, which are supplied by the essential bus, are switched automatically to the hot battery bus. Upon CIDS energization or reset, all director interfaces are disabled and the directors are initialized (self-test). The self-test is repeated periodically. It also includes a test of the data bus lines. The power connections are arranged such a way that director 1 is normally fully active and in control of CIDS. Director 2 is normally partially active, in a hotstandby mode. A failure in the initialization (self test) process in director 1 causes a deactivation of the director 1 hardware and a switchover of control to director 2 At the same time, the power transfer relay is de-energized. This prepares director 2 to be supplied from the essential bus in abnormal or emergency mode. The second contact of the relay prepares the control from director 2 to the top line cut-off relay for the emergency mode. The directors internal normal power sensing circuits are always checking if power is available on the service bus. If the power fails, as long as director 1 is OK, the power transfer relay remains energized. Via the closed contact, director 1 sends a signal to energize the top line cutoff relay.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION With the top line cut-off relay energized the emergency mode is activated. In emergency mode, the power from the essential busbar is disconnected from all type A DEU’s as long as no PA announcements are made. Type B DEU’s are directly supplied from the essential bus but only for PA and interphone operations. Activation of the PA system sets the director 1 internal NAND gate to 0, which deenergizes the top-line cut-off relay. Power from the essential busbar supplies the two essential circuits of type A DEU’s. All BITE results are stored in the director bite dedicated memory. Failure indications may be given by the following: - CIDS caution light, - the ECAM warning page, - the ECAM status page, - the PTP display, - the respective MCDU pages. The following items of equipment have their own BITE functions and send their BITE status to the director: - each DEU, - the Programming and Test Panel, - the Forward Attendant Panel, - the connected equipment such as PES. The DEU’s are able to test the connected equipment.

The type A DEU’s are connected to the directors via a top-line data bus (i.e. two wire twisted and shielded cable). A broken wire in one top-line bus will only affect the type A DEU’s behind the break on this bus. The type A DEU’s of the other top-line bus will work without disturbance. The type A DEU’s control the passenger signs including NO SMOKING, FASTEN SEAT BELT lights, RETURN TO SEAT lights in the lavatories, and the amber passenger call lights in the PSU’s. Cabin lights are controlled by the type A DEU’s and include: - entrance area lights, - lavatory lights, - attendant lights, - reading lights, - ceiling and window lights. Type A DEU’s control the loudspeakers that are installed in the Passenger Service Units (PSU’s), in each lavatory and close to the attendant station. They are all identical and are used for Passenger Address announcements and call chimes. Type A DEU’s control PASSENGER CALL push-buttons that are fitted in the PSU above each seat row and in the lavatories. Type A DEU’s control reading light power units which are installed in the PSU’s.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Each type A DEU interfaces with: - three Passenger Service Units (PSU’s) - two loudspeakers - four fluorescent strip lights which are part of the cabin light system. A bus termination resistor is located on the last DEU A mount of each line for impedance matching. A coding switch on each DEU mount gives each DEU a unique address. This method enables replacement of DEU’s without selecting their address. NOTE: In the event of mount change it is necessary to select the same code as used before on the coding switch. When CIDS is powered-up or reset the director follows a power up routine. This includes the initialization and testing of each DEU and connected equipment. The test results are transmitted to the director which compares them with its programmed data to decide on their status. At least 95% of possible DEU failures are automatically detected. In the event of a data bus failure the DEU maintains the current status of the discrete cabin systems output for a certain time. After this delay the outputs are switched to a pre-defined fail safe state, that means the 4 fluorescent strip lights come on at full brightness and all other items go off. All audio input/outputs are immediately switched off. All DEU’s operate in emergency mode when the DC service bus is no longer powered. The DEU’s are then supplied from the DC essential bus. The type A DEU passenger address circuits and type B DEU interphone circuits remain operational.

A bus termination resistor is located on the last DEU A mount of each line for impedance matching. A coding switch on each DEU mount gives each DEU a unique address. This method enables replacement of DEU’s without selecting their address. NOTE: In the event of mount change it is necessary to select the same code as used before on the coding switch. When CIDS is powered-up or reset the director follows a power up routine. This includes the initialization and testing of each DEU and connected equipment. The test results are transmitted to the director which compares them with its programmed data to decide on their status. At least 95% of possible DEU failures are automatically detected. In the event of a data bus failure the DEU maintains the current status of the discrete cabin systems output for a certain time. After this delay the outputs are switched to a pre-defined fail safe state, that means the 4 fluorescent strip lights come on at full brightness and all other items go off. All audio input/outputs are immediately switched off. All DEU’s operate in emergency mode when the DC service bus is no longer powered. The DEU’s are then supplied from the DC essential bus. The type A DEU passenger address circuits and type B DEU interphone circuits remain operational.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION panel is the lavatory smoke light. The LAV SMOKE light is used to warn of lavatory smoke. A command from the Smoke Detection Control Unit (SDCU) resets the indication only when the smoke has gone. When the RESET membrane (adjacent to the LAV SMOKE light) switch is pressed, in case of lavatory smoke warning, it resets only the aural and visual indication in the passenger compartment, without affecting the LAV SMOKE indication on the FAP. Located on the Forward Attendant Panel is the EVAC indicator light which is controlled by a discrete input from any EVAC command switch (3). It flashes red when an evacuation command has been given. It will continue to flash red until the evacuation command is canceled at the initiating panel. The adjacent RESET switch silences the evacuation alarm at this location only. Located on the Forward Attendant Panel is the guarded evacuation command (CMD) switch. Lifting the guard and pressing the CMD switch activates the evacuation alarm which sounds every half second throughout the cabin. When activated, the switch flashes red, an EVACUATION ALERT message appears at the Attendant Indication Panels, and pink lights flash at the Area Call Panels in the ceiling. Located on the water and miscellaneous panel, the PNL LIGHT TEST membrane switch is used to switch on all the FAP lights (bulb check).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The AC transfer circuit enables AC buses to be supplied by any generator or external power source, via the Bus Tie Contactors (BTC’s). The priorities for the different electrical power sources and are as follow: 1.GEN 1 (2) on AC BUS 1 (2), 2.EXT PWR even with one engine generator still running, 3.APU generator, 4.The remaining engine generator. Each engine generator supplies its related AC BUS (1 or 2). The AC ESS BUS is normally supplied by AC BUS 1, or by AC BUS 2 if AC BUS 1 fails. The AC ESS SHED BUS is supplied by the AC ESS BUS. A 115 Volt AC to 26 Volt AC single phase autotransformer supplying a normal 26 Volts 400 Hertz sub-busbar is connected to each main busbar and to the essential busbar. DC generation is done by Transformer Rectifiers 1 and 2 (TR 1 and TR 2). Transformer Rectifiers characteristic are: - 28 VDC, - maximum output of 200 A. The ESS Transformer Rectifier unit replaces a faulty main TR to power the DC ESS BUS or powers the DC ESS BUS during emergency generator operations. DC BUS 1 and DC BUS 2 are supplied by their related Transformer Rectifier.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The DC BAT BUS is supplied by DC BUS 1 or by DC BUS 2 if DC BUS 1 fails. Batteries can also supply the DC BAT BUS. The DC ESS BUS is supplied by the DC BAT BUS. In an emergency, it is supplied either by BAT 2 or by the ESS Transformer Rectifier. The DC ESS SHED BUS is supplied by the DC ESS BUS. Two batteries can be connected to the DC BAT BUS. Each battery has its own bus, HOT BUS 1 and HOT BUS 2. They are permanently supplied. Battery capacity is 23 Ah, nominal voltage is 24 VDC. On batteries only, the static inverter connected to battery 1 supplies the AC STAT INV BUS. Static inverter characteristics are: - 115 Volts, - 400 Hertz. AC and DC ground flight buses are normally supplied by the aircraft network, or directly by the external power unit, upstream of the External Power Contactor, without energizing the whole aircraft network. The main and secondary electrical circuits of the galleys are supplied by AC BUS 1 and 2. The main electrical circuits are shed in single generator operation. This schematic shows normal flight configuration or normal ground configuration with both engines and IDG’s operating.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION A Ram Air Turbine (RAT) and Constant Speed Motor/Generator (CSM/G) are provided for emergency electrical power. The emergency generator (CSM/G) can be operated on the ground through the EMER GEN TEST switch (overhead EMER ELEC PWR panel). The RAT can be deployed by the RAT & EMER GEN MAN ON switch (overhead EMER ELEC PWR panel) or the RAT MAN ON switch (overhead HYD panel).
ELECTRICAL POWER DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
In flight, in case of total loss of all the main generators, and before the CSM/G connects, batteries 1 and 2 supply the AC (through static inverter) and DC essential buses. This is a transient configuration, during RAT extension or if the CSM/G is not available.

On UAL aircraft, the avionics compartment is inaccessible in flight and has no fire protection system.. If smoke is detected, the GEN 1 LINE amber SMOKE light illuminates on the overhead EMER ELEC PWR panel. If the smoke does not dissipate after isolating possible faulty equipment, UAL procedure is to select GEN 1 LINE to OFF. This isolates GEN 1 by opening the #1 GEN LINE CONT.
At the same time the GEN 1 LINE SMOKE contactor closes and GEN 1 is now connected to the number 1 left and right wing fuel pumps. This ensures that both engines will have an uninterrupted supply of fuel. The EMER GEN is selected on, and GEN 2 and the APU generator will be switched off.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Circuit Breakers Two types of C/B’s are used by Airbus: - monitored C/B’s (green), - and non monitored C/B’s (black). When a monitored C/B is pulled or tripped for more than 1 minute, an ECAM message C/B TRIPPED is generated. Yellow rings on C/B’s indicate that these C/B’s should be pulled in flight when operating on batteries only. Red caps are installed on wing tip brake C/B’s to indicate that they should not be reset in flight. NOTE: For flight operations, ground operations, and on parked or overnight aircraft, all circuit breakers are normally in. Electrical System and Circuit Identification An alpha numeric Functional Identification Number (FIN) is used to identify systems, circuits and components. For systems, the first letter of the reference code is used for system identification. A system is a set of circuits which fulfills a main function. All components not specifically related to a circuit are identified by the letter V. The second letter defines the type of component. For circuits, the second letter of the reference code is used for circuit identification within the system. A circuit is a series of components with or without wiring, serving a specific function in a given system. All components not specifically related to a circuit are identified by the letter V. The second letter defines the type of component.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Mechanical and electrical/electro-mechanical component have been differentiated by using the letter M in place of the second circuit letter for real mechanical equipment. NOTE: Chapter 00 of the A320 Wiring Diagram Manual contains a list of one and two letter codes for system and circuit identification. For component identification, the four numeric characters, in front of the circuit identification, identify the component within the circuit. For electrical components, the reference numbers are from 1 to 999. Purely mechanical components are referenced from 5000 to 7999. Four supplementary characters are used to identify symmetrical or multiple installations. Example: 1CC1 for FAC 1, 1CC2 for FAC 2. The main bus bars are identified using: - a sequence number, - letters XP for AC BUS BARS and PP for DC BUS BARS, - a phase letter (when applicable). The first number (1,2, or 3...) indicates the bus bar number. The letters (XP or PP) indicate the corresponding power form (alternating current or direct current). Following are examples: - 1 XP is the main alternating current bus bar 1, - 1 PP is the main direct current bus bar 1, - 1 XP-A is the main alternating current bus bar 1 phase A, - 6 PP is the direct current service bus bar.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AC GENERATION Two Integrated Drive Generators (IDG’s) normally supply the aircraft electrical power in flight. Each engine drives one generator. The APU drives a third, auxiliary, generator (APU GEN) which can replace either main generator (GEN 1 or GEN 2). In normal flight configuration, each IDG supplies its own distribution network via its Generator Line Contactor (GLC). The two IDG’s are never electrically paralleled. The distribution network 1 consists of: - Alternating Current Bus 1 (AC BUS 1), - Alternating Current Essential Bus (AC ESS BUS), - Alternating Current Sheddable Essential Bus (AC SHED ESS BUS). The distribution network 2 consists of Alternating Current Bus 2 (AC BUS 2). Integrated Drive Generator System Each engine (HP rotor) drives its associated IDG through the accessory gearbox. The IDG provides a 115/200 VAC, 3phase, 400 Hz, AC supply. The IDG has two parts; the drive and the generator. A hydromechanical constant speed drive drives the AC generator at a constant speed. The input shaft has a shear neck. Its primary duty is to protect the engine gearbox but it also serves as a safeguard to the IDG. The generator is comprised of three sections which are: - a pilot exciter which has a 12 pole permanent magnet generator, - a main exciter, - and a main alternator.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The IDG oil cooling system consists of a self-contained oil circuit and an IDG fuel/ oil heat exchanger. A scavenge pump pumps the oil through the oil filter and the IDG fuel/oil heat exchanger. A charge pump provides regulated oil supply pressure to the users. The engine fuel flow regulates the IDG oil temperature through the fuel/oil heat exchanger.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION In cold conditions, due to the high oil viscosity, the oil pressure increases, the cooler bypass valve opens; and oil runs in the IDG internal circuit. As the oil warms up, the cooler bypass valve closes and the oil flows through the fuel/oil heat exchanger. A clogged filter indication is provided by a local visual pop-out indicator. In case of clogging indication, maintenance actions must be performed. When the filter is clogged, the relief valve opens.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION A quick fill coupling installed on the IDG transmission casing enables pressure filling or topping off the unit with oil. The oil thus introduced flows to the transmission via the scavenge filter and external cooler circuit. This ensures the priming of the external circuit and the filtration of any oil introduced. An internal standpipe connected to an overflow drain ensures a correct quantity of oil. Motoring is not necessary for oil level check or oil replenishment.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The IDG oil level is visible in a vertical sight glass. Servicing is according to the oil level position in the different color zones (red, yellow, green) of the sight glass assembly. CAUTION: The IDG is very susceptible to damage from improper oil servicing. Overservicing or underservicing will very quickly lead to severe IDG damage once the IDG reaches operating speed. Be sure to follow current servicing procedures.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Oil temperature sensors monitor IDG oilin and oil-out temperatures for overheat detection and ECAM display (oil-out temperature). A pressure switch operates in the event of a loss of charge oil pressure. In both cases (overheat or loss of pressure), a warning is provided to the flight deck. When an overheat or loss of pressure fault occurs, an amber FAULT appears in the IDG switch on the overhead panel. A single chime is generated and the amber MASTER CAUTION lights illuminate. An amber message, ELEC IDG 1 or 2 OIL LO PR (or ELEC IDG 1 or 2 OIL OVHT) appears at the bottom of the upper ECAM screen. This is a Class 1 Level 2 failure message. NOTE: When the oil temperature reaches a predetermined value, an advisory mode is shown by ECAM. The ELEC page is automatically displayed, and the drifting parameter flashes.
ELECTRICAL POWER DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
To disconnect the IDG from the accessory gearbox, the IDG push-button (overhead ELEC panel) must be pressed. NOTE: IDG disconnection is irreversible in flight. Connection of the system is then possible only on the ground with engines shut down. NOTE: Do not press the IDG push-button for more than 3 seconds or damage to the solenoid may occur. NOTE: The IDG fault light goes out when the failure signal is no longer present (such as after a disconnect). The GEN FAULT amber light illuminates when the IDG is disconnected. CAUTION: Do not attempt an IDG disconnect on a windmilling engine. If oil pressure is present, a partial disconnect may occur. Damage to the disconnection mechanism would occur at engine start. A mechanical reset handle is fitted to the IDG. The handle on the IDG is used to reconnect the drive while the engine is shut down and the aircraft is on the ground.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AC Main Generation The two engine generators provide the AC main generation. The AC main generation supplies the whole aircraft in normal flight configuration. When the two engines run in normal conditions, generator 1 and generator 2 supply their own network. Generator 1 supplies network 1, including: - AC BUS 1, - AC ESSENTIAL BUS, - AC SHEDDABLE ESSENTIAL BUS. Generator 2 supplies network 2, corresponding to AC BUS 2. The transfer circuit is responsible for supplying either one or the two distribution networks from any generation source: - main (IDG’s), - auxiliary (APU GEN), - or ground (EXT POWER). Supply of the distribution networks is accomplished by 2 Bus Tie Contactors (BTC’s). BTC control is entirely automatic. It depends on the availability of these sources and the correct condition of each network. BTC 1 closes if no interlock condition exists on GCU 1 as in the following cases: - when generator 1 is not available, in order to supply network 1 from another power source (generator 2, APU generator or ground power unit), - to supply network 2 from generator 1 in case of non-availability of generator 2, the APU generator, or the electrical ground power unit. Networks 1 and 2 are supplied in priority order: - by the corresponding generator, - by the electrical ground power unit, - by the APU generator, - or by the other generator.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION NOTE: BTC's 1 and 2 can be locked out by pressing the BUS TIE push-button switch located on ELEC overhead panel. This causes both channels to be isolated. The GEN 1 and GEN 2 push-button switches, on panel 35VU on the overhead panel, control generators 1 and 2 respectively via the Generator Control Unit (GCU). The Electrical Generation Interface Units (EGIU’s) transmit the main parameters from the GCU and generators to the ECAM system. The Electrical Generation Interface Unit processes parameters from a GCU and then transmits the information to ECAM via the System Data Acquisition Concentrators. There are two EGIU’s. One is associated with GCU 1 and the Generator Control Unit (GPCU). The other is associated with GCU 2 and the APU GCU. Generator 1, Generator 2, and the APU Generator are monitored by Generator Control Units (GCU’s). The 3 GCU’s are identical and interchangeable. The GCU functions (GCU 1, GCU 2, APU GCU) are selected by pin programming. The GCU has 4 different functions: - voltage regulation, - control and protection of the network and the generator, - control of the various indications, - system test and self monitoring. Voltage regulation is performed in the analog form, whereas the other functions are digital. The GCU’s are supplied: - directly from the Permenant Magnet Generator (PMG), for generator excitation and 28 VDC internal and external supply, - from the aircraft normal network (28 VDC) for the internal and external supply. 24-23 A320 LIMITATION 1 AND 9 COURSE

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION This dual supply constitutes a back up supply. The voltage regulation is performed by regulating the generator excitation current; the voltage is kept at the nominal Point Of Regulation (POR). The POR is located in the electrical power center at the end of the generator feeder, upstream of the line contactor. Generator control and protection functions are mainly the generator excitation and line contactor control. The excitation is controlled via the Generator Control Relay (GCR). The line contactor is controlled via the Power Ready Relay (PR) which is energized when: - the speed is more than 4730 rpm and, - the GCR is closed. Signals received or generated by the GCU control these two relays. The following control, or fault signals cause generator shutdown (de-energization): - IDG disconnection, - GLC failure (BTC is only locked out), - engine shutdown with the ENG FIRE push-button switches (IDG position), - PMG short circuit, - over/under voltage, - over/under frequency, - open cable (IDG position), - APU ready (APU position), - differential protection, - GEN push-button switch, - short circuit of the rotating diodes, - phase sequence (in this case, the GCU opens the PR relay only). Except in some particular cases, the system may be reset by setting the GEN push-button switch to OFF.

A319/A320 AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The PR is also controlled by the IDG drive underspeed. This prevents the generator from being energized. NOTE: Each time the generator is deenergized because of a fault signal, do a GCU reset. To do this, push (OFF) then (ON) for the related GEN push-button switch. NOTE: After differential pressure fault or after of a GLC fault, the system can be reset only two times via the GEN switch. The GCU controls the warnings and annunciators related to the IDG channel. Generator FAULT comes on when: - the protections come into operation (PR opening), - the GLC is open, (for the main generators), - the APU GLC is open or the EPC opens with the APU ready. Additional GCU controlled warnings are: - Galley FAULT when an overload is detected, - IDG FAULT for a low pressure or high temperature of the cooling and lubrication oil system. The GCU is a self-monitoring unit. Test functions are accessible through the MCDU. The Electrical Generation Interface Unit (EGIU) provides main electrical parameters to the SDAC’s via ARINC 429 data links. Two identical EGIU's are used per aircraft. Each has 2 isolated channels: - Channel 1 is allocated to IDG 1 or IDG 2, - Channel 2 is allocated to the APU Generator or External Power (EXT PWR).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION AC Auxiliary Generation (APU Generator) The AC auxiliary generation comes from the APU generator. This generator can, in flight, replace either or both engine generator(s) in case of failure. On the ground, the APU generator can supply the aircraft electrical network when the electrical ground power unit is not available. NOTE : On the ground, the generator line contactor closes only if the ground power unit does not already supply the transfer network. For the power supply of the aircraft, the ground power unit has a higher priority than the APU generator. The APU directly drives the APU generator at a nominal constant 24,000 RPM. The APU gearbox supplies, scavenges, and drains the oil for cooling and lubrication of the generator. The cooling circuit is common to the APU and the generator. The generator is a brushless oil-cooled generator with a nominal 115/200 VAC, 90 KVA, 3 phase 400 Hz output.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The generator includes three stages which are: - the pilot exciter, - the main exciter, - the main alternator. The operation principle is the same as that of the IDG generator. For details, refer to the AC Main Generation section of this chapter. NOTE: The PMG frequency for the APU generator is 1600 Hz. A temperature bulb is included to sense the generator oil outlet temperature. The sensor is connected to the electronic Control Box (ECB) of the APU. Any high oil temperature causes a shutdown of the APU (by the ECB). The overall function of the APU GCU is selected by pin programming. The APU GCU is identical and interchangeable with the IDG GCU’s. For details concerning the description and functions of the APU GCU, refer to the previous AC Main Generation section of this chapter EGIU 2 channel 2 is for the APU generator. Its main function is to give the main electrical parameters of the APU generator channel to the SDAC’s. This is via the ARINC 429 data links.

Any high oil temperature causes a shutdown of the APU (by the ECB). The overall function of the APU GCU is selected by pin programming. The APU GCU is identical and interchangeable with the IDG GCU’s. For details concerning the description and functions of the APU GCU, refer to the previous AC Main Generation section of this chapter EGIU 2 channel 2 is for the APU generator. Its main function is to give the main electrical parameters of the APU generator channel to the SDAC’s. This is via the ARINC 429 data links.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Avionics Smoke Configuration In flight on UAL aircraft, there is no access to the avionics compartment. The avionics compartment has no fire protection system. Therefore smoke in the avionics compartment is a serious concern. The selection of GEN 1 LINE SMOKE to OFF ensures that both engines will have an uninterrupted supply of fuel while electrical equipment operation is reduced in an attempt to eliminate the source of smoke. Under normal conditions, left pump 1 and right pump 1 are supplied by AC BUS 1.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION When the avionics smoke warning occurs and when smoke is confirmed, several actions have to be taken by the flight deck crew, mainly concerning the ventilation and communication systems. If smoke warning remains 5 minutes after actions on the ventilation and communication systems, the following procedure must be accomplished. The GEN 1 LINE SMOKE push-button is selected ON. The GEN 1 GLC opens and the Generator 1 Line contactor closes. GEN 1 remains energized and supplies one fuel pump in each wing tank via the Generator 1 Line contactor. AC BUS 1 is supplied by GEN 2 through Bus Tie Contactors.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Static Inverter The 1 KVA nominal-power static inverter transforms the direct current voltage from battery l into a 115 VAC 400 Hz alternating current. The static inverter is used in these cases: - APU start (supply of fuel pump), - engine start on batteries (ignition), - Ram Air Turbine (RAT) deployment (for approximately 10 seconds, for the supply of the ECAM display units), - on ground, on batteries only (push-button switch supply), - in emergency configuration with landing gear extended (supply of the 115 VAC ESS BUS 4XP instead of the CSM/G). Static inverter logic looks at aircraft speed. When the speed is greater than 50 kts, the static inverter is automatically activated if only batteries are supplying the aircraft (loss of AC bus 1 & 2) regardless of the position of the BAT 1 and BAT 2 switches.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION When the aircraft speed is less than 50 kts, the static inverter is activated if only batteries are supplying the aircraft provided both BAT 1 and BAT 2 switches are switched on. When the static inverter is faulty, it generates a permanent ground signal to the BCL 1. The presence of the ground signal means: - overheat, - output overvoltage, - input undervoltage, - input overvoltage. The static inverter defect is sent to the battery charge limiter 1 which stores it in a memory as a Class 1 Level 1 failure. When the network is supplied, a STATIC INV FAULT message appears on the upper ECAM display unit. The fault indication will be available during BCL BITE reading from the Centralized Fault Display System (CFDS).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION DC GENERATION DC Main Generation (TR) DC main generation is provided by two Transformers Rectifiers (TR 1 and TR 2). They are supplied with three phases 115 VAC 400 Hz voltage from the normal Alternating Current (AC) distribution network. Each TR controls its contactor via an internal TR logic. This logic, which is intended to protect the Direct Current (DC) network and the TR, controls contactor opening in case of no current flow to the DC BUS (minimum current detection), or a TR overheat (171°C). To ensure these protections, each TR sends a fault signal to the Centralized Fault Display System (CFDS) for maintenance purposes. TR 1 and 2 are ventilated by air extracted from the aircraft ventilation network. TR’s require a supply of three phase 115 VAC 400 Hz. The TR DC output current is: - 200 A in continuous operation, - 300 A for 5 minutes, - 500 A for 30 seconds, - 1000 A for 1 second. The TR DC output voltage is: - 30.2 V with no load, - 27.5 V at 200A.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION In normal configuration, direct current is provided by both normal transformer rectifiers (TR 1 and TR 2) and possibly by batteries. TR 1 supplies, through TR 1 contactor (5PU1) normal bus 1 (DC BUS 1), the battery bus (DC BAT BUS), the essential bus (DC ESS BUS), and the sheddable essential bus (DC ESS SHED BUS). Both batteries and their respective HOT BUS 1 or 2 may or may not be connected to the DC BAT BUS in parallel, through both Battery Line contactors (6PB1 & 6PB2). NOTE: With the battery push-buttons selected on (auto), the Battery Charge Limiters (BCL’s) control the battery line contactors. The BCL’s ensure battery charge and protection. Charged batteries will automatically disconnect from the DC BAT BUS even though the battery push-button is selected on (auto). If the battery charge becomes low, the battery will automatically reconnect to recharge. TR 2 supplies, through the TR 2 contactor (5PU2), normal bus 2 (DC BUS 2). In normal configuration TR 1 supplies the DC BUS 1, the DC BAT BUS, the DC ESS BUS and the DC ESS SHED BUS. TR 2 supplies DC BUS 2.

TR 1 supplies, through TR 1 contactor (5PU1) normal bus 1 (DC BUS 1), the battery bus (DC BAT BUS), the essential bus (DC ESS BUS), and the sheddable essential bus (DC ESS SHED BUS). Both batteries and their respective HOT BUS 1 or 2 may or may not be connected to the DC BAT BUS in parallel, through both Battery Line contactors (6PB1 & 6PB2). NOTE: With the battery push-buttons selected on (auto), the Battery Charge Limiters (BCL’s) control the battery line contactors. The BCL’s ensure battery charge and protection. Charged batteries will automatically disconnect from the DC BAT BUS even though the battery push-button is selected on (auto). If the battery charge becomes low, the battery will automatically reconnect to recharge. TR 2 supplies, through the TR 2 contactor (5PU2), normal bus 2 (DC BUS 2). In normal configuration TR 1 supplies the DC BUS 1, the DC BAT BUS, the DC ESS BUS and the DC ESS SHED BUS. TR 2 supplies DC BUS 2.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION TR Reset Before attempting a TR reset, make sure the TR is electrically supplied by its related network. The primary winding of the TR must have electrical power for a reset. Reset of the TR protection is possible from the CFDIU (CFDS interface). The reset procedure must be performed by selecting the SYSTEM REPORT/TEST item on the CFDS menu, then by selecting the involved TR on the ELEC menu. If the reset is effective, NO FAULT appears on the MCDU. If the CFDIU is not available, it is possible to reset the TR manually. To do this, push the TR RST (reset) push-button switch located on panel 103VU (for TR 1 and 2) in the avionics compartment. The reset for the Essential TR is on panel 106VU in the avionics compartment. If the reset is not possible, TR 1(2) is displayed on the MCDU and TR 1(2) FAULT stays on the upper ECAM display unit. NOTE: After the reset procedure is performed, on the panel 35VU, the AC ESS FEED push-button switch must be released, and then pushed. The ESS TR no longer supplies the DC ESS BUS (4PP). On the lower ECAM display unit, the normal configuration comes into view. Batteries The battery system is composed of two batteries which are mainly used to start the APU and supply AC and DC essential network in emergency configuration. Each battery is associated to one Battery Charge Limiter (BCL). The BCL ensures battery charge and battery protection by controlling the battery line contactor. The two batteries are identical and inter-

Each battery has 20 nickel cadmium cells in a stainless steel case. Each cell can be removed separately. Battery nominal voltage is 24 VDC and battery nominal capacity is 23 Ah. Each battery is associated to a Battery Charge Limiter which is controlled by the corresponding battery push-button. When the BAT push-button is pressed in (AUTO position), the BCL controls the battery coupling and uncoupling. When released out, the battery is uncoupled from the network and the white OFF light comes on. NOTE: In flight, in normal configuration, the batteries are uncoupled from the network (BAT switches are set to auto). Battery parameters such as voltage, current, and warnings are displayed by the ECAM display units. The voltmeters, located on the overhead main control panel, give battery voltage indication even in a cold aircraft configuration. The BCL’s monitor the charge of the batteries. In the event of battery thermal runaway or internal short circuit, the battery is isolated, the amber FAULT light comes on and the ECAM system is activated. System failures and BITE data are sent to the Centralized Fault Display System (CFDS).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION EXTERNAL POWER The aircraft network can be supplied by a Ground Power Unit (90 KVA minimum) connected to an external receptacle located forward of the nose landing gear well. If the external power parameters are correct, the EXT PWR AVAIL lights on the external power receptacle and the flight deck overhead panel come on. The ground power parameters are monitored by the Ground Power Control Unit (GPCU) which activates the indicator lights. With such indications the ground cart can supply the aircraft network.
ELECTRICAL POWER DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
As soon as the external power push-button is pressed in, the Ground Power Control Unit closes the External Power Contactor to supply the aircraft electrical network. The Bus Tie Contactors (BTC 1 and BTC 2) close only if no engine generators are on line. If any external power parameter is not correct, the indicator lights stay off. The external power cannot be connected to the aircraft electrical network. The detection of a GPCU fault causes the EPC to open.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION DC protection is provided by external power receptacle pin voltage monitoring. This protection system also includes a GPCU internal fault detection device. The Ground Power Control Unit contains an internal BITE system to help in system trouble-shooting. The BITE system detects and isolates active and passive failures. The BITE system consists of two sections which are operational BITE and maintenance BITE. The operational BITE identifies the protection, analyses the conditions and determines the fault origin. The maintenance BITE completes the operational BITE and performs a self test to provide an indication of system integrity in ground mode only. A Class 2 failure signal is sent to the Electrical Generation Interface Unit in order to display a Ground Power Control Unit message on the ECAM status page. The CFDS Class 2 message is labeled as: IDG 1 (2) HIGH DELTA TEMP. To enable the 3 Generator Control Units to dialogue with the Centralized Fault Display Interface Unit (CFDIU) through the Ground Power Control Unit (GPCU), the GPCU receives a back-up supply from the DC BAT BUS (301PP).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION GALLEY SUPPLY The power supply provides the galleys with 115 Volts AC. There are 50 KVA available for all the galleys. This power is divided into two parts: the AFT galley power with 30 KVA and the FWD galley power with 20 KVA. With the GALLEY push-button in the AUTO position and the electrical network supplied by either the ground power unit or the APU, all the galleys are supplied. The galleys are cut off by releasing out the GALLEY push-button which causes the OFF light to come on. With the aircraft electrical network supplied by both Integrated Drive Generators, the galleys are supplied. In flight, two generators are required to supply the whole galley network: - two IDG’s or - IDG 1(2) and APU GEN.
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION NOTE: On the ground, with no APU and no external power, two IDG’s are required to supply the whole galley network. If the Generator Control Unit detects a generator overload, the galley FAULT light comes on. In this case the galleys have to be manually cut off. Galley Auto Shedding On the ground, in case of an APU generator overload, the whole galley network is automatically shed. At the same time, the galley FAULT light comes on and the ECAM system is triggered. Galley auto shedding can also occur in flight. In flight, in single generator operation configuration, the power fed to the galleys is limited to 10 KVA; 5 KVA for FWD galleys and 5 KVA for AFT galleys. The GALLEY SHED indication is displayed on the ELEC ECAM page.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Flight Deck The flight deck is equipped with four seats: - a Captain seat, - a First Officer seat, - a Third Occupant seat located against the right aft panel, - a folding seat for the Fourth Occupant located in the flight deck left aft section. The flight deck also contains equipment racks. Captain & First Officer Seats The Captain and First Officer seats are secured to the flight deck floor. The seat moves longitudinally and vertically. In the rearmost position the seat moves sidewise towards the console, which increases the space between the pedestal and the seat and therefore enables passage of the seat occupant. This is the seat stowed position. Manual controls are fitted to the seats. They serve to unlock the seat and allow to position it in different configurations. Electrical controls are also available. They consist of a motor coupled to two reduction gears. The motor is controlled by two three-position switches. The gear motor assembly is overridden by the manual controls. Additional manual controls are used to adjust the backrest and lumbar rest positions. All the controls are of easy access and enable the occupant to select the desired position. The backrest incorporates a life vest fitted in a housing closed by means of two magnets. A lumbar rest adjustable in the vertical and horizontal directions enables adaptation of the seat to the occupant. It is possible to adjust the pedestal side armrest by means of a knurled knob located in the front.

A319/A320 AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The armrest is hinged to the backrest. It is therefore possible to lift it vertically and stow it behind the backrest. The sidestick armrest located on the outboard side of the seat is provided with two adjustment knobs. These knobs are used to adjust the height and the tilt angle of the side stick armrest so that the pilot can rest his/her arm in its optimum position with respect to the side stick controller. Two position indicators show the selected position. The armrest is fixed to the seat pan structure and is not affected by backrest movements. It can be folded back to a vertical position to enable easy access to the crew briefcase or console. The safety harness comprises five straps and an inertia reel. The inertia reel can be locked by a control lever located behind the seat on the right side. Four lamps which serve to light the floor are located under the Captain and First Officer seats (one under each corner of the seat pan). This lighting is controlled from the instrument panel. NOTE:The Captain and First Officer seats are symmetrical and their operation is identical. The side stick armrest is composed of three main sections. These are the fixed arm, the carrier arm and the side stick table. The fixed arm supports the carrier arm and side stick table assembly and is attached to the seat pan.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Cargo Nesting System (A320) The ACE Telescoping Cargo Loading System (nesting system) is mounted in each lower cargo compartment. The system allows one person to load and unload baggage from the doorway into the compartment. The system consists of 2 rolling modules or bins and a raised floor area. When fully extended, the system fills up the cargo compartment area aft of the cargo door in the forward compartment, and the cargo compartment area Forward or the cargo door in the art compartment. NOTE: The cargo nesting system is not installed on A319 aircraft. Modules are constructed of honeycomb panels joined at the edges by extrusions. The inner module, or module 1 sits on top of the outer module, or module 2. When the modules are driven toward the door, they are retracted or nested When driven away from the door they are extended, which is the normal flight position. An access door is provided in the bulkhead of module 2 For maintenance access. The Modules move on nylon roller unit mounted on the exterior surfaces of the modules. These ride on rails that are installed on the cargo compartment floor and wall liners. The liner mounted rails are attached to the cargo tie-down fittings (center and side rails), and directly to the sidewall and ceiling panels (hip and ceiling rails). Electrical limit switches mounted to the center rail stop the modules at the extended and retracted positions. A relay module mounted behind the sidewall panels interfaces between the switch, limit switches, motor and aircraft power.

A319/A320 AIRCRAFT REFERENCE GUIDE
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Primary end-stop function is provided by the limit switches cutting power to the motor. The ball-nut assembly and jackscrew hold the modules in place. Secondary end-stops are positioned at the ends of the side rails and one end of the ceiling rails. When the modules are fully extended, power is automatically cut-off by the far limit switch. Intermediate module positions may be obtained by manual operation of the control switch. From the Fully extended position, the modules retract towards the door together, held by the friction of the baggage, until module 1 reaches the end stop on the Side Rails. Module 2 will continue until the near limit switch is reached, automatically cutting power to the motor. Intermediate module positions may be obtained by manual operation of the control switch. The ceiling mounted control module consists of a toggle switch and 4 indicator lights. The lights indicate the mode of the limit switches. A control module mounted circuit breaker for the power control relay provides power to the cargo door position relay only, and pulling it does not remove power to the entire cargo nesting system. Circuit breakers for the motor and relay controls are located in the 2000VU and 2001VU Panels. NOTE: Allow about 2" ceiling clearance when loading to allow air circulation for Fire detection and suppression. Secure the section cargo nets before closing the cargo doors.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Cabin Escape Facilities The cabin escape facilities are installed at all the aircraft exits. They permit quick evacuation for the passengers and the crew in an emergency. Single lane escape slides are installed on A/C 414-435 at all cabin doors. Dual lane escape slides/rafts are installed on A/C 401-413 at all cabin doors. Inflation is automatic if the door is opened with the Emergency Control Handle (ECH) in the ARMED mode. Manual inflation is possible after the door is opened. The slide/raft has a special move function that permits quick release from a damaged door, for subsequent inflation at a different door. When the emergency control handle (ECH) is set to ARMED the girt bar connects the inflatable assembly to the floor attach fittings. As the door opens the outboard movement of the door pulls the inflatable assembly from the backboard assembly. As the inflatable assembly is released its starts to fall and a lanyard pulls the reservoir valve (of the valve/regulator assembly) to open. The reservoir gas supply starts to flow through the flexible hose and the aspirator inlet assembly. The inflation procedure takes approximately 4s. If the automatic inflation system does not operate, the reservoir valve (of the valve/regulator assembly) can be opened with the manual inflation handle. The handle is red in color, identified with a label PULL and installed on the girt assembly. The directional guidance lights come on automatically during the inflation procedure. Electrical power for the lights is supplied from the cabin emergency lighting system.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION If an over-water emergency exists, the survival kits must be removed from their stowages and attached to each slide/raft. They are connected with a snap-hook to the survival kit attach-loop on the slide/ raft girt. The snap-hook is installed on the survival kit pack. The additional life raft is deployed from a door from which the slide/raft was disengaged. The offwing escape slide inflates when you remove one of the emergency exit hatches. As the exit hatch is removed the hatch latch-pin engages a release lever installed in the exit fuselage frame. Movement of the release lever causes a tension in the release cable which opens the reservoir valve (of the valve/regulator assembly). The initial gas supply releases the blow-out door installed in the stowage compartment attach-panel. It then inflates the offwing escape slide through the flexible hose and aspirator inlet assembly. The inflation procedure takes approximately 5s. If the automatic inflation system does not operate the reservoir valve (of the valve/regulator assembly) can be opened with the manual inflation handle. The manual inflation handle is red in color and can be seen when the emergency exit hatch is removed. The directional guidance lights come on automatically during the inflation procedure. Electrical power for the lights is supplied from the cabin emergency lighting system.

If the automatic inflation system does not operate the reservoir valve (of the valve/regulator assembly) can be opened with the manual inflation handle. The manual inflation handle is red in color and can be seen when the emergency exit hatch is removed. The directional guidance lights come on automatically during the inflation procedure. Electrical power for the lights is supplied from the cabin emergency lighting system.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Discrete input signals, supplied to the No. l CIDS director (active) from the flight deck, control the evacuation signaling equipment. If the No. 1 CIDS director fails, the No. 2 CIDS director (hotstandby) keeps the system in operation. Facilities to supply other input signals to the CIDS director from the aft attendant or the forward attendant panels are optional. The COMMAND pushbutton switch 3WP supplies the electrical ground connection for the evacuation command signals of the system. Operation of the COMMAND pushbutton switch to the ON position causes: - the ON indicator light (part of the switch) to come on, - transmission of a signal from the CIDS director to the warning horn 5WP, - the EVAC indicator light (part of the COMMAND switch) to come on, - a flashed indication for a general alert. The CAPT & PURS and CAPT selector switch 2WP, selects who is able to activate an EVAC ALERT. NOTE: UAL’s configuration is set to the CAPT & PURS position. This allows the activation of a EVAC command from either the cabin or the flight deck. Operation of the HORN SHUT OFF pushbutton switch 7WP cancels the evacuation tone transmission to the warning horn 5WP in the flight deck.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Operation of the evacuation CMD pushbutton switch from the forward flight attendant panel causes: - the CMD indicator light (part of the switch) to come on, - the transmission of evacuation tone from the CIDS director to specified loudspeakers in the cabin, - the EVAC indicator light on the forward attendant panel to come on, a flashed indication for a general alert. If the COMMAND switch 3WP (on the overhead panel in the flight deck) is selected ON, a visual EVAC ALERT indication comes on steady or flashes. Operation of the RESET pushbutton switch cancels the evacuation tone transmission to the respective loudspeakers in the cabin. On the left aft attendant panel a visual EVAC indication comes on steady or flashed. Operation of the RESET pushbutton switch cancels the evacuation tone transmission to the respective loudspeakers. Facilities for other EVAC CMD and EVAC indications (optional) are installed at the aft attendant stations and area call panels (in the aft utility area).

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION ENGINE FIRE PROTECTION Engine fire protection is provided by two systems; the fire detection and the fire extinguishing systems. Each engine fire detection system consists of two independent loops A and B connected in parallel to the Fire Detection Unit (FDU). Each loop consists of 3 fire detectors connected in parallel. The detectors are: - a fan fire detector, - a pylon fire detector, - a core fire detector. One Fire Detection Unit (FDU) is provided for each engine. The FDU processes signals received from the fire detectors. The FDU generates signals for ECAM display, Centralized Fault Display System (CFDS) utilization, and flight deck local warnings. Fire warning signals are sent to ECAM and to the engine fire and start control panels. Loop failure warnings are sent to ECAM and to CFDS. On the engine fire panel the TEST pushbutton permits the fire detection and the extinguishing systems to be checked. During the test, the squib lights come on if the continuity of the squib circuit is correct.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION The DISCH lights are also activated but as a lamp test. The TEST push-button checks simultaneously the integrity of the fire detection loops A and B, FDU, indications and warnings, and also the squib circuit continuity of agent 1 and 2. When the engine fire push-button is released out, the squib lights come on and the extinguishing system is armed. At the same time, the engine is isolated from the other aircraft systems. Action on the agent push-button provides bottle discharge when the engine fire push-button is still released out. A pressure switch activates the corresponding disch light when the agent has been discharged. Two extinguisher bottles are installed in the pylon. Each bottle is equipped with a pressure switch to monitor agent pressure and an electrically operated SQUIB, for agent discharge. For Agent 1, electrical power to discharge the bottle originates from a battery hot bus. For Agent 2, electrical power to discharge the bottle originates from a DC bus.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION Engine Fire Detection Unit Logic The FDU has two channels capable of detecting any case of engine fire and loop failure. Each channel performs the same detection logic depending on loop A and loop B status. In case of a fire detected on both loops or on one loop with the other faulty, the channels provide a fire warning to the engine fire panel, engine start control panel and ECAM displays.
FIRE PROTECTION DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The FDU generates a fire warning signal if any of the following conditions are met: - fire on loop A and fire on loop B, - fire on loop A and fault on loop B, - fault on loop A and fire on loop B, - fault on loop A and fault on loop B within 5 seconds (both loops broken due to a torching flame).
