1-2 PURPOSE
1-2.1 The CDU Actuator test stand is designed for performing tests on Center Drive Unit actuators,
specifically Honeywell actuators, PN 126784 and 126742. These units provide the power to
operate engine thrust reversers.
1-2.2 The Test Stand consists of two major items: the recording console and the test bench. The
test bench contains the controls and instrumentation on its sloped control panel. Mounted on
the top of the bench is the actuator test fixture. The console is of welded steel monocoque
construction while the bench structure is a framework of welded steel channel, tubing and
sheet.
1-2.3 The instrumentation and controls are arranged, in-so-far as possible, so that they may be
easily read and operated when the operator is standing on the floor at the front of the bench.
1-2.4 The recording console can be remotely located such as in a separate room if desired.
1-2.5 The terms CDU and UUT (Unit Under Test) will be used interchangeably in this manual.

1-4.1 Air from the facility is routed to two circuits on the test bench; a Motor Air circuit and an Air
Control circuit.
The Motor Air circuit actually operates the actuator motor on test while the Air Control circuit
operates the test bench and supplies the actuator’s control system.
High volume facility air is to be sent to the Motor Air circuit’s manual shutoff valve (a 2-inch ball
valve) at the rear of the bench (Figure 4-2). High volume air must have at least 40 lbs per
minute air flow at 60 psig to drive the CDU motor and the control air must be of sufficient
pressure to generate enough load (Refer to paragraph 1-4.13). Shop air from the facility is
routed to the adjacent Control air circuit’s manual shutoff valve (a ½ inch ball valve) at the rear
of the bench (Figure 4-2).
1-4.2 Figure 1-2 is a pneumatic schematic of the test bench. This schematic is a more thorough
version of that shown in Figure 101 of the CMM for PN 126784. It follows the basic layout of the
test bench control panel. Numbers shown are from the CMM figure 101.

1-4.3 Shop air from the inlet shut-off valve enters the Speedaire filter. The filter removes entrained
water and dirt particles (down to 5 microns). A prismatic sight glass lets the operator see the
level of the trapped water. Turning the drain valve at the bottom of the bowl a quarter of a turn
empties the bowl contents.
1-4.4 Air enters the Norgren pressure regulator and can be reduced in pressure if required. Output
pressure can be read off the integral gauge. The regulator and gauge are located below the
first panel.
1-4.5 A ¼ inch vent valve is located on the output side of the regulator. This ball valve can relieve air
pressure in the Control air supply line.
1-4.6 Control air supply branches out to the three Control Air pressure regulators; LOAD PRESSURE
ADJUST, SUPPLY PORT ADJ, and SUPPLY PORT PRESSURE ADJ.
1.5.1 The External Load System is used to control the load that is placed on the CDU under test. A
pneumatic cylinder converts pneumatic pressure into either a tensile or compressive force.
The controls are all on the first panel (from the left) of the control panel.
1.5.2 Figure 1-3 is a detail of the schematic showing only the external load system.
1.3.3 The LOAD PRESSURE ADJ pressure regulator (21) can be set to the desired load. The LOAD
PRESSURE gauge (11) reads the setting of the regulator. This is the air pressure that is used
to operate the cylinder.
1.5.4 The DEPLOY ↔ STOW valve (19) is a 3-position spool valve that allows the operator to shut
off the load by placing the toggle in the center position or exerting a load on the UUT by
moving the toggle to either side.
1.5.6 Pressure in the loaded side of the cylinder can be viewed on the 0-300 psig gauge on top of
the bench. It reads the pressure in the high-pressure side of the cylinder with the aid of the
Pneu-trol shuttle valve.
1.5.7 The shuttle valve also puts the VENT VALVE (18) automatically into the high pressure side of
the cylinder. The valve allows a quick release of load cylinder pressure.
1.5.8 Load vs. Pressure characteristics: The cylinder has a 6inch bore and a 1-3/8 inch diameter
rod.
If pressure is applied on the head end, load is equal to psi x piston area or:
If pressure is applied to rod end, Load = psi x (piston area-rod area) or:

1.6.1 Two Supply Ports are located on the last two panels: one on the DIRECTIONAL CONTROL
VALVE (DCV) panel and one on the SIDE PORT PRESSURE panel.
1.6.2 Figure 1-4 is a detail of the schematic showing only the two supply port circuits.
1.6.3 The control air supply enters the SUPPLY PORT ADJ pressure regulator (23) for control of the
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVE panel supply PORT. The regulated pressure can be read
off of the PRESSURE AT SUPPLY PORT gauge (15) on the panel. This panel’s SUPPLY
PORT is to be hosed to the DCV piston chamber of the UUT.
1.6.4 A solenoid valve (16) opens and closes the air supply going to the UUT. The DEPLOY,
STOW, MANUAL, and AUTOMATIC switches on the electrical panel operate the bench’s three
solenoid valves. The gauge labeled PRESSURE AT SUPPLY PORT reads the air pressure
present at the UUT.
1.6.5 The SIDE PORT PRESSURE panel is similar to the DCV panel described above. Control air
supply enters the SUPPLY PORT PRESSURE ADJ pressure regulator (24) for control of the
SIDE PORT. This pressure can be read off of the 0-100 psig gauge (5) under the panel. The
panel’s SUPPLY PORT is to be hosed to the side port pressure adapter.
1.7.1 Figure 4 is a detail of the schematic showing only the motor air circuit.
1.7.2 High volume air (HV) from the facility is sent to the brass two inch ball valve (14) at the rear.
Note that when the valve handle is parallel with the airline the valve is open.
1.7.3 The air is routed to the Norgren 2 inch pressure regulator. This regulator uses a panel (second
panel from the left) mounted pressure regulator (22) for pilot control. The panel regulator is
labeled MOTOR PRESS ADJ. The digital indicator, located above the regulator labeled AIR
MONITOR INLET PRESSURE, reads the regulated pressure as received at the UUT motor air
inlet.
1.7.4 The airline diameter reduces to one inch and the air is halted at solenoid valve SV1 (20) when
de-energized. Switches on the electrical panel open the valve. This solenoid valve opens and
closes the air supply to the UUT motor.
1.7.5 Downstream of solenoid valve SV1 is another solenoid valve (SV2) that is used to vent this
same line.

1.8.1 The test stand is wired for 110 volt, single phase, 60 Hertz power. Total power requirement is
approximately 3 KVA. Power is brought into the recording console through the connector 110
VAC INPUT at the rear base of the console. Power cord PN 833662-46 (white label on cord)
mates to this connector. This is a 16 gauge, 3-conductor cable.
The power is sent to a power tap mounted on the lower side of the console. Standard power
cords can plug into the tap. Three are used at present and additional spaces are available for
any future additions. Two cords are connected for the chart recorder and the X-Y plotter. The
third cord goes back to the 110 VAC OUTPUT connector at the base to which power cord, PN
833662-103, can be connected. This cord connects to receptacle AC IN on the test bench
connector panel which is on the underside of the electrical panel.
1.8.2 A third connector at the console base is labeled TO 833663. This is a multi-pin Cannon
connector which mates to cable, PN 833663-101. The other end of this cable mates to the
recording console connector on the bench’s connector panel. This connector/cable carries all
of the signals from the various transducers used on the bench. These include the following:
1.8.3 Adjacent to the AC IN connector is the AC OUT connector. A power cord connected to this
receptacle brings 110 VAC power to the digital pressure readout, AIR MONITOR INLET
PRESSURE, when the power switch is pushed on.
Note that the power switch is not labeled and is to the right of LAMP TEST switch. If an over-
current condition should occur, a panel mounted fuse will protect the test bench circuit. The
fuse is below the AC OUT receptacle and is labeled FUSE (6 AMP).
1.8.4 Along with the recording console Cannon connector (described in paragraph 1.8.2), there are
seven other connectors. All of the Cannon connectors on the panel are listed in Table 1-2.
1.8.5 Power from the receptacle AC IN on the test bench connector panel is sent through a slow
blow, 5 amp fuse. This fuse is panel mounted on the connector panel (underneath) and can be
simply unscrewed to access the fuse.
The electrical box formed by the bottom connector panel and the top electrical panel (on the
control panel) contains the essential electrical components of the stand namely the terminal
board, solenoid valve contactors, power supply and the printed circuit board.
1.8.6 The 120 volt AC power is turned on and off with the unlabelled power switch to the right of the
LAMP TEST button. The AC power is used to operate the three solenoid valves and to operate
the power supply. The remainder, in particular the circuit board, operates on DC power.

PRESSURE XDCR Takes signal from the AIR MONITOR INLET PRESSURE meter
(taken from pressure transducer at the motor air inlet) and sends
it directly to the recording console connector which sends it to the
recorder .
DCV STROKE Takes 15 vdc power to the LVDT on the UUT and takes signals
from LVDTand sends them to the recording console connector.
POSITION XDCR Takes signal from Celesco position transducer and sends it to
recording console connector also sends 15 vdc power to the
transducer.
RECORDING CONSOLE Sends signals to the recording console from transducers and the
electrical panel circuit.
TEST ARTICLE Takes internal switch signals from UUT and sends them to the
electrical panel circuit.
LIMIT SWITCH Takes signals from the three test bench limit switches and sends
them to the electrical panel circuit.
1.8.7 The contactors that control the solenoid valves have AC contacts and DC coils. The logic built
into the circuit board behind the electrical panel essentially operates the contactors via the
operator inputs from the panel switches. The printed circuit board diagram is on Honeywell
drawing 833663 sheet 25.
1.8.8 The power supply (also located behind the panel) produces 15 volts DC that is used
throughout the circuit board and by the lamps and switches (except for main power switch) on
the panel.
1.8.9 The wires within the electrical box are labeled in accordance to the electrical schematic 833663
sheet 26.
