- Chapter 16: Cabin Environmental Control Systems › Vapor Cycle Air Conditioning › System Servicing
Water is removed from the system by evacuation. Anytime the system refrigerant charge falls below atmospheric pressure, the refrigerant is lost, or the system is opened, it must be evacuated before recharging. Evacuating a vapor cycle air conditioning system ... also known as pumping down the system. A vacuum pump is connected and pressure inside the system is reduced to vaporize any water that may exist. Continued operation of the vacuum pump draws the water vapor from the system…
- Chapter 9: Navigation Systems › Instrument Approach Systems › Instrument Landing Systems (ILS)
Instrument Approach Systems Most navigation systems approved for en route and terminal operations under IFR, such as VOR, NDB, and GPS, may also be approved to conduct IAPs. The most common systems in use in the United States ... simplified directional facility (SDF), localizer-type directional aid (LDA), and microwave landing system (MLS). These systems operate independently of other navigation systems. There are new systems being developed, such as WAAS and LAAS. Other systems have been developed for special…
- Chapter 12: Hydraulic & Pneumatic Power Systems › Basic Hydraulic Systems › Open Center Hydraulic Systems
Basic Hydraulic Systems Regardless of its function and design, every hydraulic system has a minimum number of basic components in addition to a means through which the fluid is transmitted. A basic system consists of a pump, reservoir, directional valve ... check valve, pressure relieve valve, selector valve, actuator, and filter. [Figure 12-2] Open Center Hydraulic Systems An open center system is one having fluid flow, but no pressure in the system when the actuating mechanisms are idle. The pump…
