Oxygen System Summary B737 PDF
THE OXYGEN SYSTEMS SUPPLY OXYGEN TO THE FLIGHT CREW, CABIN ATTENDANTS, AND PASSENGERS. OXYGEN CAN BE USED FOR THESE REASONS:
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
*THE FLIGHT CREW OXYGEN SYSTEM OPERATES INDEPENDENTLY OF THE OTHER SYSTEMS.
* IT IS A HIGH PRESSURE GASEOUS SYSTEM IN A CYLINDER IN THE ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT (EE) COMPARTMENT
*THE PASSENGER OXYGEN SYSTEM USES CHEMICAL OXYGEN GENERATORS. THE GENERATOR IS IN THE PASSENGER SERVICE UNITS (PSUS).
*EACH CHEMICAL GENERATOR IS SEPARATE, AND SUPPLIES ONLY ITS MASKS. THE MASKS CONNECT TO THE CHEMICAL GENERATORS BY FLEXIBLE TUBES.
THE BOEING 737-600/700/800/900 SERIES OXYGEN SYSTEM IS DIVIDED IN SYSTEMS WICH IS:
WARNING:
MAKE SURE TO REMOVE THE SAFETY PIN FROM THE FIRING PIN ON THE OXYGEN GENERATOR. THE OXYGEN GENERATOR WILL
NOT FIRE IN AN EMERGENCY IF THE SAFETY PIN IS INSTALLED.
CAUTION:
YOU MUST BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN YOU INSTALL AND REMOVE AN OXYGEN GENERATOR. DO NOT DAMAGE THE OXYGEN
GENERATOR OR LET IT FALL. IF THE OXYGEN GENERATOR IS DAMAGED, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE OXYGEN GENERATOR WILL
NOT FIRE. (DO NOT TRY TO REMOVE THE FIRING MECHANISM FROM THE OXYGEN GENERATOR. IT CANNOT BE ASSEMBLED
AGAIN)
THE PASSENGER OXYGEN SYSTEM USES CHEMICAL GENERATORS TO MAKE OXYGEN. OXYGEN FROM THE GENERATORS FLOWS
THROUGH FLEXIBLE SUPPLY HOSES TO THE PASSENGER OXYGEN MASKS.
*MANUALLY BY THE CREW WITH A GUARDED TOGGLE SWITCH ON THE OXYGEN SYSTEM CONTROL PANEL (P5)
*AUTOMATICALLY BY OPERATION OF A PRESSURE SWITCH (14000 FEET CABIN ALTITUDE).
OPERATIONAL DISPLAYS THE PASS OXY ON LIGHT ON THE P5 AFT OVERHEAD PANEL COMES ON WHEN THE PASSENGER
OXYGEN MASKS DEPLOY.
WARNING:
DO NOT ALLOW OIL, GREASE, DIRT OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIALS TO TOUCH OXYGEN SYSTEM COMPONENTS. THESE
MATERIALS WHEN EXPOSED TO PRESSURIZED OXYGEN CAN IGNITE AND CAUSE AN EXPLOSION. A FIRE OR EXPLOSION CAN
CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT
