AIR SUPPLY DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
Distribution Ducting
The pneumatic or air supply system is primarily an air distribution system,
channeling air through ducts from one of several air sources to user systems.
Pneumatic air is channeled through ducts to the hydraulic reservoir and potable
water system, the total air temperature (TAT) probe, the air conditioning packs,
wing thermal antiice (TAI) ducts, and engine starter.
Note: On PW 2000 Engines: - Engine Inlet Cowl TAI
Engine Air Supply
The airplane engines provide the main source of pneumatic air.
This air source is normally used whenever the engines are running.
Air is supplied from two ports located at the engine high pressure compressor
section. Through these ports a small amount of high pressure air is bled from
the engines.
The pneumatic system regulates the pressure and temperature of the air and
channels it to the user systems.
APU Air Supply
The auxiliary power unit (APU) can be used to provide system air when the
airplane is on the ground.
The APU also provides in-flight (up to 17,000 ft.) bleed air backup,
in case of engine failure or an engine pneumatic air system malfunction.
Ground Air Supply
As an alternate to the APU, a pneumatic ground cart can supply air to the
airplane, whenever it is parked.
For Training Purposes Only
The connection between the ground cart and the pneumatic system is through
(PW 2000 Engines:) two
(RB 211 Engines:) three ground air connectors.

Inlet pressure, from the Precooler bleed air outlet, is routed past a relief valve and
the manual override valve, where it changes to SUPPLY PRESSURE. The cam has a wrenching hex on its face and a raised flange, with a slot on its
back side, which allows the position indicator and valve plate shaft to move.
This pressure passes through a Filter cavity to the base of two reference pressure
regulator metering valves and trough an orifice to chamber A. The cam is locked in this position by a spring-loaded locking arm. The lock
arm must be manually disengaged and held, prior to rotation of the cam hex.
When the sensed pressure reaches the desired level, the spring force is overcome
and the metering valve moves toward the seat to maintain the outlet pressure at When the cam is rotated to partially open the valve, the flange engages the
a constant level. position indicator and back drives the valve plate shaft.
Rotating the cam follower to the full open position, simply locks the position
indicator in the open position and also prevents the valve plate from moving.
The regulated outlet pressure from the actuator reference pressure regulator is
routed through Orifice A to a control nozzle and butterfly actuator. Regardless of the selected locking position, the manual override valve will vent
supply pressure and block off inlet pressure.
The regulated outlet pressure from the servo reference pressure regulator is
routed through a valve driven feedback control orifice to the Fan air temperature
sensor and to the servo.
Temperature regulation
The Fan air temperature sensor functions as available orifice producing a control
pressure in servo chamber B that is inversely proportional to sensed tempera-
ture, thereby driving chamber B pressure up with decreasing temperature.
When the Fan air temperature sensor is closed, chamber B pressure is at its
maximum, the control nozzle is closed by the pressure force on the Diaphragm B
and the actuator pressure is at its maximum value, which is sufficient to overcome
the valve opening spring and drive the butterfly fully closed.
For Training Purposes Only
A decrease in servo chamber B pressure permits the load of the feedback spring
to push the flexure beam away from the control nozzle , which produces a de-
crease in the actuator chamber pressure.
As the actuator pressure decreases, the spring force strokes the valve plate in the
opening direction, the feedback spring produces a decreasing compression load
on the flexure beam. This force exists between the servo force and feedback
spring.
Thus, for any servo chamber B pressure, a corresponding valve plate position
exists.

10TH STAGE CHECK VALVE
PURPOSE
The 10th stage check valve is designed to prevent reverse flow into the tenth
stage of the engine (e.g. when HSPRSOV is open)
LOCATION
The valve is mounted in-line with the 10th stage ducting on the right side of the
engine at approximately the three oclock position.
Opening the right Fan thrust reverser cowl will allow access to the valve.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION / FEATURES
The valves 5.5 inch inlet flange is located at the bottom. The outer housing
assembly has a pressure sensing port for the HS Controller and a flow direction
arrow. On the inside of the housing there are three support fins, attaching the
outer housing to the center housing.
The center housing supports the poppet assembly as it moves open and closed.
The outlet flange is 7.5 inches in diameter and mates with the ducting going to the
Precooler.
OPERATION
As air enters the valve from the normal flow direction, (10th stage - higher power
settings) the check valve is pushed open by the combination of velocity pressure
and the differential pressure across the poppet (0.5 psid).
As air starts to flow in the reverse flow direction (14th stage take-over - lowerpower
settings), (0.2 psid) it passes through the holes in the center housing and impacts
on the concave section of the poppet assembly causing the valve to close, check-

REVERSE FLOW CONTROLLER
PURPOSE
The Reverse flow controller is used to electrically command the PRSOV Con-
troller and Hi-Stage Controller to OFF, when the downstream pressure is
greater than the upstream pressure (setpoint > 0.37 psid).
LOCATION / ACCESS
The Reverse flow control switch is mounted on the strut fire wall, just aft of the
Precooler and is accessible by opening the left Engine Core cowling.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION / FEATURES
The Controller consists of a pneumatic servo and a normally closed micro-
switch, both of which are encased in an aluminum housing.
The housing has one electrical connector and three pneumatic connectors.
Two connections are for differential pressure sensing and the third for cooling
air to the microswitch.

REVERSE FLOW CONTROL DESCRIPTION
OPERATION
Differential pressure across the PRSOV is monitored by chamber A and B
of the Reverse Flow Controller.
Chamber A is connected to upstream pressure at the bleed air inlet of the
Precooler and chamber B is connected to downstream pressure immediately
aft of the PRSOV.
There are two springs, two equal area diaphragms, a lever arm and a micro-
switch incorporated in the Reverse Flow Controller.
The spring in chamber A has a greater compressive force than the spring in
chamber B and with normal pressures in the pneumatic system, forces the
diaphragms and lever arm to a position that will keep the microswitch closed.
The diaphragms will move against chamber A pressure and spring, when
downstream pressure exceeds upstream pressure by not more than 0.37 psig.
This will cause the chamber B spring to reposition the lever arm, which will
activate the microswitch to the open position.
The microswitch is connected to the Bleed Air Control circuitry and causes
(when open) the PRSOV and HSPRSOV to close, preventing any possible
back flow into the Engine.

AIR SUPPLY DUCTING
PURPOSE
The ducting provides a means for routing air from various sources to the user
systems.
LOCATION
The ducting runs from each Engine strut along the front spar (between spar
and Leading Edge Slat) through the forward section of the wing to body fairing
into the forward section of the left and right Air Conditioning Packs.
PHSYSICAL DESCRIPTION
The 5 inch in diameter ducting throughout the Distribution system is of high
strength, light weight titanium.
The ducting may be bare or, in areas that requires protection against corrosion,
caused by high temperatures and hydraulic fluids, may have a gold coating.
Note: The gold coating is used to protect the titanium ducting from
enbrittlement, caused by hydraulic fluid and high temperatures
(approx. 270 F / 132 C or higher)
In the cross body sections there are various connections for the
supplying systems and the user systems.
MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
In the Maintenance Manual, detailed inspection and cleaning procedures for
BARE and GOLD COATED titanium ducts can be found.

GROUND AIR SUPPLY SYSTEM
PURPOSE
The Ground Air Supply System provides a way to connect an external air
source to the Pneumatic Distribution System.
The system also automatically prevents back flow from the distribution system
to ambient, when the external air source is not connected.
Pratt & Whitney (PW 2000) powered airplanes
have two standard size connectors.
Rolls Royce (RB 211) powered airplanes
have three standard seize connectors.
LOCATION / ACESS
The connectors are located forward of the Main Gear Wheel Wells in the left
and right Air Conditioning Bays,approximately 6.5 feet above the ground.
They are normally accessed through small hinged panels with quick releases.
These panels are mounted in the forward section of the Air Conditioning
Compartment access doors.
PHYSICAL DESRIPTION / FEATURES
The three inch (7.6 cm) diameter connectors (Delaval M9131 or
Kaiser/Roylyn 46635) have a spring loaded closed flapper type check valve,
which consists of two semicircular flappers hinged about a pin installed be-
tween the connector and the distribution sytem ducting.
MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

For Training Purposes Only
The amont of air required for Air Conditioning Pack operation will also vary,
depending on ambient conditions (altitude and temperature),
heating/cooling requirements, airplane interior temperature and whether one or
both Packs are operated.
Insure that all the nut and bolt assemblies, that are used to retain the connec-
tors, are lockwired to the support flange of the connector.
Failure to lockwire may allow the conector to become loose or to come off com-
pletely.

DUCT PRESSURE INDICATION
General
Two pressure transducers provide signals to the dual duct pressure
indicator (P5 panel) and to EICAS.
The transducers sense available system pressure on either side of the
air supply isolation valve.
Both transducers are located just forward of the air supply body cross over
ducting.
Operation
Two duct pressure transducers provide a direct reading of the available air
pressure supplied by the air supply system.
28 volts DC power operates each pressure transducer.
The BLEED AIR DUCT PRESS indicator on P5 panel receives signals from
transducers on the left and right side of the isolation valve.
The output of the indicator displays individual pressure for the right
and left side from 080 psig.
EICAS receives signals from a transducer on the left and right side of the
isolation valve.
Pressing the EICAS MAINT ECS MSG pushbutton on the right side P61 panel

DUCT PRESSURE IND. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
GENERAL
The right and left air supply duct transmitters are connected to short sensing
lines, to monitor air pressure on either side of the Isolation Valve.
Output signals from these transmitters are routed to the duct pressure indicator
and to the EICAS computers.
OPERATION SEQUENCE
The pressure transmitters are powered by 28 V DC from L and R DC Buses.
In the pressure transmitters, pressure variations cause a bellows to move the
wiper arm of a potentionmeter.
The resultant voltage from the potentiometer is amplified and then routed to an
EICAS computer, where it is processed for display on the lower EICAS DU.
The transmitter voltages are also routed to a dual air supply duct pressure indi-
cator (gauge), which is powered by 115 V AC from the L AC Bus.
The signal voltages vary from 0.4 to 4.2 volts DC ,
for a pressure range of 0 - 80 psi.
The signal from each pressure transmitter is processed by a buffer amplifier
and servo amplifier.
The servo amplifier powers a torque motor, which in turn rotates the left or right
indicating needle, as approbiate.
Whenever the input voltage changes, the torque motor will rotate the display
needle until the servo amplifiers input signal is nulled out by a voltage from the
rebalance potentiometer, which is equal in amplitude, but opposite in polarity.

Downstream (regulated) pressure is sensed by the pilot pressure regulator.
If downstream pressure exceeds the adjustment setting of the pilot regulator, a
valve bleeds off actuator diaphragm pressure. The closing diaphragm and

To reduce the amount of bleed airflow required for ventilation in the flight and
passenger compartments, a recirculation system has been incorporated. This
system recycles cabin air by mixing it with pack discharge air before it is distrib-
uted to the passenger cabin areas. Approximately half of the total air flow to
the passenger compartment is recirculation air. This maintains proper ventila-
tion, a reasonable supply temperature and reduces the amount of bleed air re-
quired from the bleed air sources.

Purpose
The fuel vent system is designed to maintain the fuel tanks at near ambient
atmospheric pressure under all operating conditions.
Overpressuring the tanks could cause structural damage.
Underpressuring could cause component malfunction and engine fuel starva-
tion
Construction and components
The tanks are vented to ambient pressure using vent channels, which are
ported to the Surge tanks.
The surge tanks maintain near ambient pressures through a vent scoop.
Backup venting to the surge tank is through pressure relief (positive/negative)
valve.
The two vent channels ineach wing are formed by hat section stringers on the
inside upper wing skin.
Openended vent tubes are mounted on the bottom of the channels to provide
porting to the surge tank in nosehigh attitudes.
The center tank is cross vented, with the left side ported to the right surge tank
and vice versa.
This cross venting prevents fuel flow into the surge tanks during ground ma-
neuvering and winglow attitudes.
Float valves are installed on some ports in the tanks, to prevent fuel from flow-
ing through the ports and into the surge tanks, when the ports are immersed.
Float drains allow fuel to drain into the tanks, that would otherwise be trapped
in the vent tubes.

If fuel is sensed there, ALL fueling valves are commanded closed.
Inside are two adapters for nozzles and the P28 fueling control panel.
The adapters connect to a manifold inside the tank along the rear spar. Overwing Fueling
Fueling and Defueling controls are at the P28 Panel. An overwing fill port in each main tank allows gravity fueling.
Pressure Fueling Valves
The tanks are filled through four fueling valves. There is one valve for each
main tank and two valves for the center tank.
The valves are controlled by the fueling valve switches and the
FQIS Processor (refueling to a preset value and/or volumetric topoff).
An overfill system automatically closes all valves if a tank is full and the proces-
sor (or the manual operator) has failed to close the valve(s).
The fueling valves are solenoid controlled (energized to open) and
fuel pressure operated.
A knurled knob on each valve allows manual (backup) operation of the valve,
in case of an electrical problem.
For Training Purposes Only
Note: There must be NO fuel pressure to the valve , in order to operate the
valve manually.
Fueling Manifold Draining
The two manifold drain valves allow fuel in the manifold to drain into the center
tank after fueling, but close during fueling to prevent undesired flow into the
center tank.
A vent valve connects the fueling manifold to a vent channel, to allow air to en-
ter the manifold as fuel drains.

OVERFILL PROTECTION COMPONENTS
Purpose
The overfill system is designed to back up the FQIS to prevent fuel tank
overfilling and resultant spills.
Location
The overfill system consists of a sensor in each surge tank and a control card
(M586) in the P50 panel.
The system operates by sensing the resonant frequency of a piezoelectric
crystal inside the surge tanks.
The system is tested and reset by two pushbutton switches on the fueling
control panel.
Characteristics
The overfill system is powered whenever the fueling station is powered.
Automatic system reset is accomplished upon initial powerup.
Fuel enters the surge tank through the hat section vent channels.
The fuel contacts the piezoelectric crystal sensor changing the resonant
frequency of the sensor, causing the control card to remove power from all four
fueling valve solenoids.
The system may be reset from the fueling control panel if desired.
Most system failures cause the fueling valves to be unpowered, preventing
normal pressure fueling.
The system can be overridden by holding the RESET pushbutton on the
fueling control panel.
A TEST closes the fueling valves if successful, as indicated by the blue fuel-
ing valve lights extinguishing.

OVERFILL PROTECTION OPERATION
Power
Power to the Overfill System is available when the fueling station is powered
The source o f the 28 volt dc power is either the Ground handling Bus or the
Hot Battery Bus.
The Fueling Panel Control Relay (K179) is energized when the Fueling Station
door is latched open (fueling power door sw closed) and power is available.
Operation
When power is supplied, K181 Overfill Control Relay is energized for
13 seconds through K180 Overfill Set Relay.
If no fuel is detected the fuel level sensor control card supplies a ground to
keep K181 energized
When both K180 and K181 are energized, power is available to the fueling
valve control switches.
When the fuel level sensor control card is powered, the transmit pulse genera-
tor signals the oscillator to generate a excitation signal to drive the piezoelectric
crystals.
The signal to the piezoelectric crystal sets up an acoustical vibration.
If the probe is surrounded with air the vibration continues after the excitation is
removed.
When immersed in fuel, the vibration is dampened.
This change is detected by the control card.
If the surge tank is empty, the average voltage over the time period is high
With fuel in the tank, the average voltage is low.
The average voltage is compared to a set voltage. A low average voltage
sensed by either comparator removes the ground for K181 Overfill Control
For Training Purposes Only
Relay.
Testing
A system test is done by pushing the Overfill Test Switch on the fueling panel.
This causes the average voltage to drop to a low value.
Both comparators must sense a low voltage to de energize K181 Overfill Con-
trol Relay The Overfill Reset switch makes a ground for K181, to reset the
system . A failed card is bypassed by holding the Overfill Reset Switch.

Crossfeed Manifold
The crossfeed manifold is common to all AC powered fuel pumps.
It is located inside the fuel tank structure adjacent to the rear spar.
An engine fuel shutoff valve (also called Spar Valve) controls fuel flow from the
crossfeed manifold to the engine.
A crossfeed valve (on some airplanes two) interconnects the left and right
crossfeed manifolds. The valve is normally closed and is opened to correct
fuel imbalance.

FUEL LOW PRESSURE DESCRIPTION
Purpose
If either or both engines are operating on suction flow (no pressure from
the boost or override pumps) an EICAS caution message
L(R) FUEL SYS PRESS appears.
Circuitry
Each boost and override pump has a dedicated pressure switch, that provides
a ground if the pump output pressure is low (<4 psi).
All six pressure switches and the Crossfeed valve(s) position are input to the
EICAS computer.
The pressure switches also control the respective pump PRESS light
on the fuel management panel and LOW PRESS level C EICAS message
for the individual pump.
Operation
The EICAS computer logic determines that the engine is on suction flow by
sensing the pressure switch signals and crossfeed valve(s) position, and dis-
plays the message as appropriate.
This L (R) FUEL SYS PRESS message inhibits the individual pump LOW

AUTOMATIC SUMPING JET PUMP
Main Tanks
The main tank aft boost pump outflow is used to power a jet pump located
adjacent to the aft boost pump inlet.
The jet pump draws fuel and water, if present, from the low point in the tank
and discharges near the boost pump inlet.
Contaminates are thus drawn into the aft boost pumps and override pumps
before an accumulation can occur.
Center Tank
Each center tank override pump outflow is used to power a respective jet pump
located adjacent to the override pump inlet.
The jet pump inlet is located at the low point of the center wing section,
to prevent contaminate accumulation.

CENTER TANK SCAVENGE PUMP
Purpose
The center tank scavenge pump reduces unusable fuel in the center tank.
Since the center tank is relatively flat and wide, a considerable amount of fuel
remains in the tank when the override pumps lose pressure and are turned off.
Normal operation require the center tank to be empty, before main tank fuel is
used.
The center tank scavenge pump transfers the remaining fuel to the main tank,
when there is room.
Physical Description
The components related to the scavenge pump system are manifolds,
a scavenge pump, a float valve and a scavenge pump inlet.
The scavenge pump is mounted on the outboard side of the sideofbody
(SOB) rib. The pump inlet is mounted in the center tank low point, just inboard
of the SOB rib.
The float valve is located in the main tank on the rib separating the center and
main tanks. Manifolds connect the scavenge pump, pump inlet and float valve.
Operation
When the center tank is empty and the main tanks have room for additional
fuel, the scavenge pump operates automatically to transfer the remaining cen-
ter tank fuel to the left main tank.
The pump is a Jet pump type. Motive flow to create the pump suction is pro-
vided by the left forward boost pump.
A float valve prevents fuel transfer, until fuel is being used out of the main tank.
A ball check valve in the scavenge pump prevents boost pump output from dis-

FUEL QUANTITY MEASURING STICKS
2844
FUEL QUANTITY MEASURING STICK ASSEMBLY
Purpose
The measuring sticks provide a mechanical means of determining fuel level
in each tank.
Location
There are seven sticks in the bottom surface of each wing.
Five sticks are installed through tank access panels in each main tank.
The center tank has one stick installed through an access panel and one
mounted through the skin surface of each wing.
The sticks are numbered from inboard to outboard on each side.
Physical Description
The measuring stick assembly consists of a stick housing, sealed to the lower
wing surface.
An upper float stop prevents the float from coming off the housing.
Installed within the dry portion of the housing is a calibrated, flat, bendable stick
with a latch assembly on one end and a magnetic armature on the other end.
Operation
A screwdriver is used to push up and rotate the stick head counterclockwise
for release.
Once the stick is unlocked and lowered, the stick armature is attracted
magnetically to the float supported ring magnet and holds at the tank fuel level.
A reading of the calibrated stick is then made.
A measuring stick document is used to convert this reading into desired
Volume or Weight, with corrections for airplane pitch and roll attitude.
For Training Purposes Only
The attitude is determined by a plumb bob and leveling scale on the right
keel beam in the right wheel well.
