The water and waste system installed in the aircraft supplies the spigots and
coffee makers in the galleys, lavatory sinks and toilets with water from a po-
table (drinkable) water tank.
The used water (so-called gray water) can be drained overboard. The waste
from the toilets will be collected in a waste tank and emptied on ground by a
service truck. The water system is pressurized by air.

The potable water system supplies pressurized potable water for food serv-
ice in the galleys and for washing in the lavatories. The potable water system
is pressurized by bleed air and an optional air compressor. The potable wa-
ter is stored in a central holding tank, whose useable capacity is 110 litres.
The gray water system enables draining of the serviced water from galleys
and lavatory wash basins. Draining is performed by drain masts located in
the forward and aft sections of the fuselage.
A Water and Waste System Controller (WWSC) operates and monitors the
system components and evaluates failure status. The controller is designed
to include all the necessary software and hardware components to support
all possible standard and optional configurations.

The vacuum waste system provides waste collection and storage from the
toilet assemblies located in the lavatories. It uses either a vacuum generator
at low altitudes or differential pressure between the cabin and ambient at
high altitudes to transport the waste from the toilets to an aft mounted waste
holding tank, whose usable capacity is 95 litres (25 gallons).
The titanium waste lines are installed inside the pressurized, temperature-
controlled environment of the fuselage and are routed from the toilets to the
waste holding tank. During a toilet flush cycle, the vacuum waste system
uses a small amount of pressurized water from the potable water system to
rinse the toilet bowl and aid in the evacuation of waste.
During ground servicing, the waste tank is drained through a drain valve,
drain line and service panel into a service truck. A rinse line routed from the
service panel to a rotating rinse nozzle within the waste tank is used to sup-
ply rinsing fluid to the tank.

A Water and Waste System Controller (WWSC) is mounted in the rear elec-
tronics bay behind the left lavatory, above the vacuum waste tank. The
WWSC monitors and controls the components of the water and waste sys-
tems, interacts with Flight Attendants Panels (FAP) and the cockpit drain
panel, and communicates with the Centralized Maintenance Computer
(CMC). Communication with CMC is through MAU3 via the ARINC 429 bus.
WWSC also receives flight and altitude information from the aircraft through
the MAU3 via the ARINC 429 bus.

The water level sensor measures the volumetric quantity of water stored in
the water tank. The level sensor is integrated into the top flange housing of
the tank. The sensor is a cylindrical tube capacitive type. The unit acts as an
electronic sensing probe, and provides continuous measurement of the wa-
ter level.
Input voltage is 28 VDC, provided by the WWSC. The output signal increas-
es if water level increases and vice versa. The signal processing electronics
are integrated into the sensor assembly. The output signals are transmitted
to the WWSC and then to the FAP. The aft FAP provides water quantity in-
dication and system FAULT indication to the cabin attendants. Water quan-
tity is provided at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% tank volume levels.

Titanium waste lines carry the waste to the holding tank. They are installed
inside the pressurized and temperature-controlled area of the fuselage. The
vacuum waste system makes use of pressurized water from the potable wa-
ter system to rinse the toilet bowl and aid in the evacuation of waste.
The waste tank can be drained through a drain valve, drain line and service
panel into a service truck. After the tank has been drained it will be cleaned
with water supplied through the service panel to a rotating rinse nozzle in the
waste tank.
The system is operated and monitored from the WWSC. One to three toilets
can be installed in the aircraft aft left, aft right, forward left and forward right.

Conditions for normal use of the vacuum waste system are: Electrical power
is available; waste tank is not full; service panel door is closed and pressu-
rized water is available at the toilet rinse valve.
When the toilet flush switch inside the lavatory is momentarily pushed, the
toilet Flush Control Unit (FCU) mounted on the toilet times and sequences
the operation of the vacuum toilet. If altitude is below 18,000 feet, the vacu-
um generator is actuated through the Water and Waste System Controller
(WWSC) to evacuate the waste holding tank.
At higher altitudes the differential pressure between the cabin and ambient
is sufficient to transport the waste. Prior to opening the toilet flush valve, wa-
ter is introduced into the toilet bowl through the rinse valve to rinse the bowl
and aid in waste evacuation. When the rinse valve closes, the toilet flush
valve is opened and the waste is evacuated to the holding tank. Ten sec-
onds after the flush switch actuation at low altitudes, the vacuum generator
is disabled and the toilet is again ready for flushing.
Note: If the waste tank is full, the WWSC disables the toilets to prevent fur-
ther flushing and over-filling of the waste tank.

NOTE:
If the waste tank is full, the WWSC disables the toilets

The aft aircraft Flight Attendant Panel (FAP) provides waste quantity indica-
tion and system FAULT indication. The WWSC monitors the waste tank lev-
el sensors and sends an output signal to the FAP to indicate the correct
quantity. At 75% the SERVICE TANK light illuminates, and at 100% the
TANK FULL light illuminates. FWD or AFT LAV FAULT indications are pro-
vided on the FAP by the WWSC when a signal from the respective toilet due
to a motor fault or switch fault, or if the FCU blower signal to the vacuum gen-
erator stays on for more then 5 minutes. The waste FAULT light will come
on if the vacuum generator is in an overheat condition, the 75% and 100%
level sensors have failed or if the WWSC is faulty. If both level sensors have
failed, the system will be deactivated and considered FULL. Further fault in-
formation can always be found on the CMC.

The toilet Flush Control Unit (FCU) mounted on the toilet, times and se-
quences the operation of the vacuum toilet in the following order after the toi-
let flush switch has been pressed:
If altitude is below 18,000 feet, the vacuum generator is actuated through the
WWSC and the motor starting relay to evacuate the waste holding tank.
• As the rinse valve closes, the toilet flush valve is opened for four seconds
and the waste is evacuated to the holding tank.
• Ten seconds after the flush switch is pressed, the vacuum generator is
disabled and the toilet is again ready for flushing.
At altitudes above 18,000 feet the differential pressure between the cabin
and ambient is sufficient to transport the waste and the vacuum generator
will not be powered. The airflow bypasses the vacuum generator through a
check valve to the overboard vent on the right hand side of the aircraft.
If the waste tank is full, the 100% level sensor in the waste tank notifies the
WWSC which then disables the toilets to prevent further flushing and over-
filling of the waste tank.

The potable water system is pressurized by engine or APU bleed air and an
optional compressor. The bleed air is tapped off from the cross bleed duct in
centre fuselage II. The air is routed aft through the fuselage and connects to
the air manifold in centre fuselage III. Bleed air is introduced via an air man-
ifold into the water tank to provide regulated pressurized potable water. The
air manifold includes a shuttle valve, regulator, air filter, check valve and
pressure relief valve. The air manifold regulates the incoming air pressure to
the working pressure level, cleans the air, prevents water from entering the
air system and prevents over pressure in the water system.

• power conditioning circuits,
• Input and output cards, and,
• ARINC 429 interfaces
The AMS controller receives commands from the ECS control panel and
from the system sensors. It communicates with the MAUs and the SPDA via
the ARINC 429 bus to drive the torque motors which controls opening and
closing of the system valves.
The SPDA 2 provides the AMS controller cards with the sources of power
which are necessary for electronic control of AMS components.
The SPDA 2 incorporates a latching cover assembly which ensures effective
ventilation flow across the installed electronic cards.
The AMS controller cards are ESDS sensitive components.
A wrist strap must be worn when handling the controller cards. The SPDA 2
has a grounding receptacle on the front case for wrist strap connection.
AMS controller channel 1 connects to the MID SPDA 2 and channel 2 of the
AMS controller connects to the forward SPDA 1. This provides a redundant
connection between the AMS controller and the MAU.
AMS electronic components are powered by the SPDA, one of the Integrat-
ed Control Circuits (ICC‘s), or directly from aircraft power. The SPDA is
equipped with smart electronics circuit breakers. The ICC‘s are similarly
equipped with automatic protective devices. The remaining AMS electronics
that obtain power directly from the aircraft power system are routed through
circuit breakers. Circuits that are served by the AMS controller are protected
by the current limits inherent to the AMS controller.
Two SPDAs are provided in the EPGDS which interface with two MAU, four
Integrated Control Centers (ICC), and various control / display interfaces on
the flight deck. These SPDAs are an integral part of the aircraft utility man-
agement system to provide control and monitoring of several aircraft sys-
tems.

Control panel
The overall control of the pneumatic bleed system is made through the
PNEUMATIC switches of the AIR COND/PNEUMATIC control panel.
The action of the switches are as follows:
• BLEED 1 - Left bleed system AUTO/OFF (the switch will be dark in the
AUTO mode, white striped bar illuminated if mode is OFF, amber strip bar
illuminates if leak is present). In the AUTO mode, bleed 1 system is ena-
bled and the left bleed system activation will be subjected to normal sys-
tem control laws. The OFF mode manually overrides the left bleed
system to continuously OFF. In other words, when you select the OFF
mode, the system drives the left high stage bleed valve and the left
NAPRSOV - nacelle pressure regulating shut off valve to the CLOSED
position.
• BLEED 2 - Right bleed system AUTO/OFF (the switch will be dark in the
AUTO mode, white striped bar illuminated if mode is OFF, amber strip bar
illuminates if leak is present). In the AUTO mode, bleed 2 system is ena-
bled and the right bleed system activation will be subjected to normal sys-
tem control laws. The OFF mode manually overrides the right bleed
system to continuously OFF. In other words, when you select the OFF
mode, the system drives the right high stage bleed valve and the right
NAPRSOV to the CLOSED position.
• XBLEED - Cross bleed valve AUTO/OFF (the switch will be dark in the
AUTO mode, white striped bar illuminated if mode is OFF, leak function
is not presented). In the AUTO mode, cross bleed valve activation will be
subject to normal system control laws. The OFF mode manually over-
rides the cross bleed system to continuously OFF. In other words, when
you select the OFF mode, the system drives the cross bleed valve to the
CLOSED position.
• BLEED APU - APU (Auxiliary Power Unit)- bleed valve AUTO/OFF (the
switch will be dark in the ON mode, white striped bar illuminated if mode
is OFF, amber strip bar illuminates if leak is present). In the AUTO mode,
APU bleed valve activation will be subjected to normal system control
laws. The OFF mode manually overrides the APU bleed system to con-
tinuously OFF. In other words, when you select the OFF mode, the sys-
tem drives the APU bleed valve to the CLOSED position.

Manifold Pressure Sensor
The manifold pressure sensor is used for condition monitoring and closed
loop control of regulating valves.The AMS controller receives electronic
feedback from the pressure sensor and modulates the bleed valves through
torque motor current.AMS controller has dual channel redundancy for left
and right AMS controllers.
The sensor is hermetically sealed and has a supply pressure port, an inter-
nal pressure transducer, and an electrical output connector.With a 28 V ex-
citation voltage (applied to pins 1 and 2), the sensor gives an output voltage
signal of 0-9 V linear over the 0-200 psia (0-1378 kPa) range.

Bleed over pressure switch
The bleed over pressure switch provides an electronic relay signal to close
the high stage bleed valve and NAPRSOV (Nacelle Pressure Regulating
Shut Off Valve) whenever manifold pressure exceeds 100 psig.
The switch senses pressure and provides a switching function at its set
point.It is actuated by completing an electrical circuit when the input pres-
sure increases to 100 psig.It is deactivated by breaking the electrical circuit
when the input pressure decreases to 93 psig.

electronic torque motor controller to modulate the bleed regulating valves to
obtain the desired bleed pressure.
The engine bleed air is cooled in the precooler using cold fan air to remove
the heat.During low ambient flow conditions such as ground operation, fan
air is used for precooler cooling air flow.
The fan air modulating valve is a pneumatic actuator butterfly valve electron-
ically controlled by a torque motor.Increasing torque motor current will cause
the valve to close.The butterfly valve has a disc and shaft set installed in the
valve housing.The valve shaft is connected to the actuator by a crank and
linkage.The valve is springloaded closed.
For ECS (Environmental Control System) operation only, the manifold tem-
perature control uses the temperatures sensed at the manifold temperature
sensor as reference.When slat anti-ice operation is enabled with ECS oper-
ation, the holter temperature sensed at the manifold temperature sensor
provides the bleed temperature control.
The AMS controller receives electronic feedback from the temperature sen-
sor to determine actual temperature exiting the right and left engine bleed
systems.
The AMS controller will then send a torque motor current command to the
fan air modulating valve which regulates the flow of cold fan air across the
cold circuit precooler.

The APU bleed system contains an APU bleed shut-off valve, and an APU
bleed check valve. The APU check valve allows APU bleed supply to enter
the bleed manifold and is closed by engine bleed pressure when the APU is
not running.
The APU bleed check valve is a 3.5 inch diameter dual flapper check valve
which is mounted in the APU bleed supply duct. Two check valve flappers
are aligned on a single hinge pin. The valve is spring loaded closed by a wire
coil spring mounted on the outlet side of the valve.

The hot air leak detection system is comprised of multiple overheat sensor
loops and electronic control. Together these components provide rapid and
reliable overheat and leak detection for the bleed air distribution manifold
and anti-ice supply ducting.
The Overheat Detection System includes six different loops in seven differ-
ent areas:
The overheat signal is used for crew alerting, and to isolate the appropriate
duct sections- either automatically or by crew action. Each loop is duplicated
and runs parallel to the bleed ducts.

The FENWAL sensor loops include outer and inner conductive materials
which are independent electrical circuits. The area between the outer and in-
ner walls of the loops are filled with salt.
If the temperature of the loops rises above 125°C/ 249°F the circuits devel-
op short. A signal is sent to the ODS cards installed in the AMS controller
module and the respective system will be shut down.
AMS can define the failure location within three inches. The system will reset
if the temperature drops below the set-point and the control switch is cycled.
If the left manifold or right manifold ODS loops indicate a failure in either the
left or right bleed duct system or the left or right air conditioning duct system,
then the respective bleed system is shut down. This action also shuts down
the slat anti-ice system, the ECS pack, and the cross bleed valve. A mes-
sage is sent to the EICAS.
If the left Manifold/Flight Deck Pack ODS loop indicates a failure in the left
manifold ducting system when the High Pressure Ground Connection is AC-
TIVE a message is sent to the EICAS to indicate the failure.
If the APU ODS loops indicate a failure of the APU duct system, then the
APU Bleed Request signal is set to FALSE and a message is sent to the EI-
CAS. In response to the EICAS message, the SPDA monitors the position
of the APU Bleed SOV.
If the APU SOV does not close within 5 seconds after the EICAS message
is received, the SPDA turns off the power to the APU FADEC. This has the
effect of shutting down the APU and thereby the hot bleed air source.

General Description
The ozone converter is installed upstream of the flow sensing venturi, in the
wing. There are two ozone converters installed on the aircraft:
one for the left bleed system and other for the right bleed system.
Operation
Air exiting the bleed system passes through the ozone converter before en-
tering the air conditioning packs. The ozone converter contains a catalytic
material, which, through a chemical reaction, converts ozone molecules to
oxygen molecules. This reduces the amount of ozone in the air entering the
air conditioning system.

The Environmental Control System (ECS) provides air conditioning for the
flight deck and passenger cabin, filtered cabin air re circulation, conditioned
air supply for gaspers, fan air cooling for avionics and emergency ram air
ventilation for flight deck smoke clearance.
The ECS provides cargo bay ventilation. The cargo bay ventilation system
is optional.
• Two identical ECS packs which condition fresh bleed air for cabin and
flight deck heating and cooling
• Optional trim air system to provide two cabin zone temperature control
• Flow control valves to provide accurate modulation of pack air flow, and
all associated valves and sensors used for system built in test
• Avionic fan control and cargo compartment ventilation
• Cockpit smoke removal
• Provides environmental control system flow rate data used by the cabin
pressure control system to anticipate changes in cabin pressure.
Two ECS packs are installed in the wing-to-fuselage fairing. The AMS con- The trim air system controls the amount of hot bleed air from the pack 2 into

pack # 1 while engine # 2 supplies bleed air to pack # 2. A single pack is
capable of keeping adequate cabin/cargo hold pressurization and tempera-
ture. Single engine bleed can supply both ECS packs using the cross bleed.
Re circulation fans
Re circulated air from the passenger cabin and cockpit is ducted to the mix-
ing manifold via two re circulation fans located in the pressurized section of
the airplane.
The re circulation fans draw air from the re circulation bays and impel the air
back into the flight deck and cabin distribution system.
The total flow entering the cockpit and the passenger cabin is made up of
approximately 52% fresh air and 48% of re circulating air.
The re circulation fans are commanded off when DUMP button is pressed or
smoke is detected in the re circulation bay.
Gasper ventilation
The gasper air distribution system provides air to each pilot and passenger
positions.Air flowing from the mixing manifold through the gasper ducts sup-
plies the gasper ventilation system.

The centre e-bay comprises three fans, which provide forced cooling air for
the centre e-bay electronics, Left Integrated Control Centre (LICC), Right In-
tegrated Control Centre (RICC) and SPDA 2. The fans draw air from the rear
cabin return and expel it toward the underfloor re circulation bay.
Flow sensors are used for fan/flow health monitoring.
The ECS provides ventilation for live animals in the forward cargo bay.
This optional system contains a fan on the side of the bay to provide under-
floor re circulation air into the bay. The system also contains a shutt off valve
at the outlet of the bay that closes in the event of fire and thus preventing
halon from leaving the bay. In addition, in the event of fire, forward cargo
compartment fans are commanded OFF to prevent halon from entering the
cabin.

The distribution system receives airflow from the re circulation fans, cooling
packs, ram air system and ground equipment and distributes this air to the
cockpit, passenger cabin, gaspers, avionics compartments and forward car-
go compartment.
Pressurization control
The aircraft operates at altitudes where the oxygen density is not sufficient
to sustain life. The pressurization control keeps the aircraft cabin interior at
a safe pressure altitude. This protects the passengers and crew from the ef-
fects of hypoxia (oxygen starvation).
Cooling
The cooling system receives hot bleed air from the APU (Auxiliary Power
Unit) or engines and supplies conditioned air to the distribution system.

Air supplied to the flight deck is distributed through ducts which run along the
left-hand side of the cabin underfloor area. These ducts then form a loop to
supply the following outlets and areas:
The pilot and first officer positions have handle-actuated butterfly valves that
provide air for foot warming or cooling.
Normally 60% of the mixed air from the left side ECU (Environmental Control
Unit) goes to the cockpit and 40% goes to the passenger cabin through the
mixing manifold (H-duct).
Air passages located in the cockpit floor, under the pilots seats, lateral con-
soles, and the control column opening let the air return to the re circulation
fans and to the aircraft outflow and pressure relief valves.

The cabin air distribution system starts at the mixer duct. From this point the
conditioned air is distributed to the gasper system, and to the front and rear
passenger cabin sections. Ducts from the mixer duct direct air to the raisers
and to the upper plenums.
In the gasper system the air exits through the individual outlets above the
passenger seats. For the main distribution system, the air exits above and
below the overhead bins.
Return air passes to the underfloor areas through "DADO" panels located
just above the floor on the fuselage side panels.

The Mixer
From the two ECS packs and the two re circulation fans, the air flow is di-
rected to the mix-manifold.
The total air flow entering the flight deck, the cabin compartments and the
gaspers is made up of approximately 50% fresh air and 50% re circulated
air.

The gasper ventilation system is supplied by air flowing from the mix mani-
fold through the gasper check valve. The check valve allows air flow to the
front and rear gasper ducts, and through the gasper plenum to the gasper
outlets.

The ram air ventilation system allows outside ambient air to enter the flight
deck and passenger compartment when the air conditioning packs are shut
down.
The system is normally not actuated when packs are operating, and ram air
is passing through the heat exchangers to provide duct cooling.
The ram air system includes a ram air valve installed in the left ram air inlet
duct, and ram air check valve installed in the right ram air duct. The ram air
ventilation valve is a butterfly valve powered by 28 VDC. Micro switches are
provided for position indication.
The manual override feature allows manual opening and closing of the
valve.

The forward cargo compartment ventilation system draws air from the cabin
underfloor area by means of a single fan, and exhaust the air through the
cargo compartment shut-off valve into the re circulation bay area to the out-
flow valve.
During normal operation the fan is operating, and the shut-off valve is open
and monitored by the AMS controller. In case of fire, the fan is turned off and
the valve is immediately closed.
A check valve ensures that there is no airflow toward the passenger com-
partment.

The central electronics bay fans are controlled by the Secondary Power Dis-
tribution Assembly. NOTE: When the RAT is deployed, the middle avionics compartment emer-
gency fan uses the low speed setting to minimize power consumption.
During normal system operation Fan 1 operates normally with Fan 2 and
Fan 3 in standby mode.
If there is a failure of Fan 1, Fan 2 will be automatically turned on.
If both Fan 1 and Fan 2 have failed, Fan 3 will be commanded on high
speed.
The low speed on the two speed fan is used during Ram Air Turbine
deployment to minimize power consumption.
Fan number 3 will be turned on low speed by default any time the

The shelves of the rack contain the several units required for the proper
functioning of the in-flight entertainment system.Some of these units require
forced ventilation, supplied by a dedicated and independent ventilation sys-
tem, in order to minimize effects on air-conditioning distribution, pressuriza-
tion and smoke management.

Ventilation ducts
The air/smoke extracted from the electronic equipment rack passes the fan
and reaches the shutoff valves through a set of 4.5 in diameter aluminium
ducts.Then the air/smoke is directed to the atmosphere through a vent duct
and a fuselage port located at the right hand side of the fuselage, behind the
aft avionics compartment.
The 3 in diameter vent duct is also made of aluminium and runs from the
shutoff valves to a 2.5 in diameter vent port at the right side of the fuselage
skin.The vent duct has an upward loop to avoid de-icing fluids ingestion and
water ingression during ditching.A venturi in the overboard exhaust duct pre-
vents excess loss of cabin pressure in case of a duct failure.
A duct bypasses the ground shutoff valve and prevents excessive loss of
cabin pressure in case of duct failure.It also keeps a minimum required air-
flow for the rack cooling when the vent shutoff valve is closed due to smoke
detection in the air conditioning system (basically in the recirculation bay),
single pack operation or for dispatch ability when one pack is inoperative.
Shutoff valves
The ground and vent shutoff valves are identical.They are attached to the aft
floor panel (aft avionics compartment) close to the aft pressure bulkhead.
The valves contain limit switches that control the motor and provide valve
position indication.

Operation
During ground operation, the fan draws the air from the underflow compart-
ment through the rack equipment and exhausts it to the outside.The ground
valve and vent valve are open.The airflow switch monitors the airflow rate to
ensure adequate cooling capacity for the electronic units.
During takeoff, when the TLA (Thrust Lever Angle) is moved above 60 de-
grees and the parking brake is released, the ventilation system is automati-
cally configured to the flight mode.During descent and landing, this
configuration will remain until 20 s after touchdown, when the system reverts
back to ground mode.
In the flight mode, the ground valve is closed and the fan is shut off.The vent
valve and the bypass line are open.The pressure difference between the
cabin and the outside air serves as the driver for cabin air to flow through the
rack ventilation system discharging the exhaust air to the outside.The airflow
switch monitors the airflow rate to ensure adequate cooling capacity for the
electronic units.Its signal is inhibited during flight under 17500 ft +/- 500 ft,
when the ventilation system has not reached its nominal capability.
Fan Operation
During normal ground operation, the fan is commanded ON and both shutoff
valves are commanded OPEN.After takeoff or in response to a smoke de-
tection on ground, the fan is commanded OFF and the ground shutoff valve
is commanded CLOSED.
The fan operates on the ground even when only the ground service power
bus is available, in order to ventilate the Wireless Aircraft Unit (WAU).

21-30 Pressurization
Introduction
The Cabin Pressure Control System, in automatic mode, will control the
pressurization in the cabin to a maximum cabin altitude of 8,000ft. The sys-
tem will also control the maximum differential pressure of 8.32 psi up to
41,000ft aircraft altitude with a comfortable rate of change in climb and de-
scent modes. These limits are achieved by modulating the airflow through
the outflow valve. Separate mechanical positive and negative relief valves
satisfy the safety relief functions.

The CABIN ALT switch controls the position of the outflow valve in the man-
ual mode of operation. It only functions when the MODE selector switch is
set to MAN. It has these positions:
• UP
• DOWN
• STOP
The OUTFLOW switch is spring-loaded to the STOP position. When it is
turned to the UP position, the outflow valve is driven to the open position.
When it is turned to the DOWN position, the outflow valve is driven to the
closed position. The outflow valve is driven at a rate of 2 degrees per sec-
ond.

The CPCS controller is part of a dual redundant system. It is active when the

cuits and are used for cabin pressure control logic. The control channel
calculates a reference value for cabin pressure from external aircraft inputs
and internal logic.The reference value is compared with the actual cabin
pressure and when a difference exists, an error signal is output.This error
signal is fed to one of the motors in the actuator to drive the outflow valve to
the desired position.

During ground and flight operation the CPCS determines the current flight
mode depending on ARINC information. The system operates with the fol-
lowing flight modes:
• Ground (GN)
• Takeoff (TO)
• Climb (CI, CE)
• Cruise (CR)
• Descent (DI)
• Abort (AB)
The mode logic uses the following information from the MAU (Modular Avi-
onics Unit) to determine the current flight mode:
• Landing gear status and validity (generated by FADEC (Full-Authority
Digital Engine-Control)
• Engine takeoff power status and validity (generated by FADEC)
• Ambient pressure (generated by ADC)
• Cruise Flight Level (CRFL) and validity (generated by FMS)
• Ground Mode - The ground mode is active when the landing gear status
shows that the landing gears are compressed and the engines takeoff
power signals are not set.
• Ground to Taxi Mode - The taxi mode becomes active as soon as the
doors signal indicates the doors are closed and both engines rotation
(N2) are higher than 60%. This mode is only possible to be activated from
the ground mode.
• Climb Mode to Abort - If the aircraft stops climbing and begins an imme-
diate descent, the CPCS interprets this as a flight abortion.The abort is
only possible if the cruise mode has not been entered and either the air-
craft is below 10000 ft absolute or is less than 5000 ft above the takeoff
field.

• Climb external is used when a valid CRFL is received from the FMS.
Climb internal is used if the CRFL is invalid or the FMS fails.
• Climb Mode to Abort - If the aircraft stops climbing and begins an imme-
diate descent, the CPCS interprets this as a flight abort. The abort is only
possible if the cruise mode has not been entered and either the aircraft is
below 10000 ft absolute or is less than 5000 ft above takeoff field.
• Climb Mode to Cruise - In the climb external mode, the mode logic switch-
es from climb to cruise when the aircraft reaches the planned CRFL. In
the climb internal mode, the mode logic switches from climb to cruise
when the aircraft stops climbing.
• Cruise Mode to Descent - The descent mode becomes active when the
aircraft starts descending after the cruise.
• Descent to Ground - The ground mode is active when the landing gear
status indicates that the aircraft is on the ground.

The CPCS will transition to DESCENT mode by selecting the landing field
altitude before the aircraft leaves the cruise flight level. The target pressure
will be set to landing field altitude plus 0.12 psi to ensure landing with the
CPCS in control. Cabin rate of change depends on cabin pressure, landing
field pressure and ambient pressure within 200 and 750 fpm.
If the aircraft stops climbing and begins immediate descent, the CPCS tran-
sits to ABORT mode. This transition is only possible from climb mode when
the aircraft altitude is below 10000 ft absolute or 5000 above the takeoff
field. In this mode, cabin pressure will be scheduled back to the take-off al-
titude, with a 5000 fpm rate of change.

Manual mode
The manual mode of operation gives the flight crew manual control of the
cabin pressure.
When the MODE selector switch on the pressurization control panel is in the
MAN position, it configures the CPCS for manual operation. Both automatic
channels revert to the stand-by state. The manual operation is performed by
one control channel which is selected automatically. The crew has direct
manual control of the outflow valve via the CABIN ALT switch on the pres-
surization control panel.
The CPCS detects any failure in the manual mode and provides fault mes-
sages to the EICAS and CMC (Central Maintenance Computer).
The EICAS shows the message “PRESN MAN FAIL” if the manual function
of both channels has failed.
Failures detected during flight which do not require crew action are dis-
played on the CMCM (Central Maintenance Computer Module) after land-
ing.

channel or in the CPCS functions. If the BIT logic detects a fault in the active
control channel, the control channel goes into automatic fail. The CPCS
switches automatically to the other control channel without any workload to
the crew. A channel Fail message is displayed on the CMC display.
All detected faults are stored in NVM (Non-Volatile Memory) and can be
down loaded for maintenance purposes off-wing. All faults are continuously
transmitted to EICAS and CMCM via the ARINC 429 output bus.
The CPCS checks internal parameters and functionality. The internal fault
detection logic detects and isolates single LRU (Line Replaceable Unit) and
interconnection failures that cause loss of functionality or redundancy.

Outflow valve
The outflow valve controls the air flow out of the aircraft fuselage. It is in-
stalled on the forward fairing bulkhead.
The outflow valve consists of a valve body and a rotary actuator. The valve
body comprises a 8.5 in diameter butterfly valve, a two-piece butterfly valve
flap, a splined shaft and an actuator housing.
The valve body, valve flap and actuator housing are made of anodized alu-
minium alloy. The valve flap is bolted around the splined shaft and moves to
the closed if loss of mechanical actuation occurs.
The rotary actuator consists of two brush less DC (Direct Current) motors, a
gear train and a dual channel potentiometer.
The gear train consists of two irreversible worm screws, a differential gear
stage and two stages of spur gears. The worm screws are linked directly to
the output shafts on the DC motors. The spiral angle of the worm screw pre-
vents back driving of the motors.
The CPCS has a fail-safe software logic to close the outflow valve if the cab-
in pressure altitude reaches 14500 ft. This function overrides the normal au-
tomatic operation only, it does not effect the manual operation of the outflow
valve.

The positive pressure relief valve is a pneumatically actuated gate valve, lo-
cated on the rear pressure bulkhead, normally held in the closed position by
a pre-loaded spring.
If the pressure difference exceeds 8.66 psid, the pilot valve will open and the
differential pressure will act on the diaphragm to open the valve.
A micro switch is mounted on the valve to provide input to the Modular Avi-
onics Unit for status reporting. The static port connects the positive pressure
relief valve to ambient pressure.
The port is located at the rear fuselage section and has an integral heater
powered by 28 VDC to eliminate ice blockage.

Under normal flight conditions, the valve is in the closed position. The valve
is mechanically actuated using the self-balanced spring forces at the valve
gate and the ambient-to-cabin differential pressure. If the ambient pressure
exceeds the aircraft cabin pressure, the valve gate opens and limits the neg-
ative pressure. The springs set the cap to open at a differential pressure of
-10 hPa (-0.15 psi). The valve is fully open at -35 hPa (-0.51 psi).
The safety valve has also a negative relief function. If the ambient pressure
acting on the underside of the gate valve exceeds the cabin pressure, the
gate valve opens allowing air from ambient to flow into the cabin.

21-40 Heating
Introduction
The door sill heaters are electric heating pads located in the forward and aft
doorway entrances, attached to the floor panels. These pads provide heat-
ing during cold weather icing conditions, to prevent snow accumulation at
the door entry. The unit includes:
Heating element
The floor panel heaters operate when the aircraft is on the ground with the
doors open, and an outside air temperature below 40°F/4.4°C.
If internal temperature rises above 68°F/20°C, the thermostat will open and
disconnect heating. If the temperature drops below 59°F/15°C, the thermo-
stat will close the circuit and heating will begin.
The heating panel is a Kapton foil heater bonded to an aluminium cover and
skin. This construction provides a thin flexible heating element. Epoxy adhe-
sive is used to bond the Kapton foil to the metal element, to prevent moisture
penetration.
The foil heater is rated for continuous use at 302°F/150°C, which is well
above the normal operating temperature of the mat.
The heated floor panels have an electrical lead of sufficient length to allow
easy removal and installation.
21-50 Cooling
Introduction
The air conditioning system utilizes two identical cooling packs that provide
condition bleed air for cabin heating and cooling.
The packs provide condition bleed air for cabin heating and cooling, and in-
clude the following components:
During normal operation, each cooling pack provides half of the total fresh
airflow; however, a single pack is capable of providing 67% of the total flow
and ensuring safe aircraft ventilation and temperature control capability.
ECS pack
The air conditioning system utilizes two identical air cooling packs, right and
left, to condition bleed air for cabin heating and cooling. Each air cooling The high air exchange rate is necessary to control temperature gradients,
pack consists of a dual heat exchanger, air cycle machine, condenser/re- prevent stagnant cold areas, and maintain air quality.
heater, water collector, valves and temperature sensors. The primary func-
tion of the air cooling pack is to supply conditioned air to the cabin
distribution system for environmental control. The air cooling pack also con-
tains an internal condensing water collection system which removes mois-
ture from the cooling pack air flow. Hot air from the engine bleed system is
precooled in the dual heat exchanger using cold ram (outside) air to remove
the heat. An air cycle machine within the pack contains two cooling turbines
which generate cold air, through expansion, for cooling cabin.
The cooling pack system conditions hot bleed air for cabin air conditioning.
There are two identical cooling packs (right and left) per aircraft and they are
located in the ECS (Environmental Control System) pack bay in the forward
fairing of the aircraft.
The cooling pack is an air cycle refrigeration system that uses air passing
through and into the airplane as the refrigerant. The cooling pack system au-
tomatically controls the temperature and decreases the humidity of the cock-
pit and cabin air. The two cooling packs, which are installed in the forward
part of the wing-to-fuselage fairing, provide dry, sterile, and dust free, condi-
tioned air to the flight deck and passenger cabin at the proper temperature,
flow rate, and pressure to satisfy pressurization and temperature control re-
quirements.
An equal quantity of filtered, re circulated air is mixed with air from the cool-
ing packs.
A flow control valve regulates flow of bleed air into the air conditioning packs.
The refrigeration pack is out fitted with sensors and valves for temperature
and operational control, and heat exchangers that use outside ram air for ex-
cess heat dissipation.
An equal quantity of filtered re circulated air is mixed with air from the air con-
ditioning packs. The high quantity of supply air results in a complete cabin
air exchange about every 2.5 to 3.5 minutes (based on aircraft configuration
and altitude), or about 18 to 25 times an hour.

The pack flow control valve is located upstream of the left and right air cool-
ing packs.
The valve is torque motor controlled and modulated by the AMS controller,
but has a pneumatically actuated butterfly valve. It incorporates a closed po-
sition switch to provide position feedback to the AMS controller. A filter re-
moves air supply contaminants.
A locking screw installed in the actuator housing can be used to lock the
valve in a closed position.

The flow sensing venturi is a steel duct. The venturi contains pressure-sens-
ing ports on the upstream and downstream side of the duct orifice. Airflow
across this duct is measured by a differential pressure sensor mounted on
the venturi and is used by the AMS Controller to calculate the air flow.
The sensor provides a zero to 10 volt DC electronic signal to the AMS con-
troller. The sensor is hermetically sealed and has two input pressure ports,
an internal pressure transducer and an electric connector.
The differential pressure sensor is mounted on the flow sensing venturi duct
directly upstream of the pack flow control valve. The sensor provides a 0 to
10 VDC (Volt Direct Current) electronic signal to the AMS controller, which
is used to calculate the air flow that goes into the environmental control sys-
tem. The sensor is hermetically sealed and consists of two input pressure
ports, and internal pressure transducer, and an electrical connector. There
are two differential pressure sensors per aircraft (one per cooling pack).
The flow of air to the air conditioning packs is measured using a differential
pressure sensor which is mounted on a venturi duct. The differential pres-
sure sensor sends an electronic signal to the AMS controller. The AMS con-
troller uses the differential pressure, the bleed manifold pressure, and the
pack inlet temperature to calculate airflow going to the air conditioning pack.
The AMS controller then supplies a torque motor current command to mod-
ulate the pack flow control valve to obtain the desired pack airflow rate.
The dual heat exchanger ceeds the ACM fan outlet pressure. This fan bypass function is necessary to
prevent ACM damage caused by excessive fan surge margins. There are
two fan bypass check valves per aircraft (one per cooling pack).
A dual heat exchanger and a fan inlet diffuser housing assembly are in-
stalled into each ECS pack.
• The primary circuit removes heat from bleed air before entering the
compressor section. The primary section is a single-pass cross flow
configuration.
• The secondary circuit removes heat from the compressor outlet air
before it goes towards the reheater. The secondary section is a
two-pass cross-counter flow configuration.
• Both bleed circuits are cooled by ram air in series - first the second-
ary then through the primary heat exchanger sections.
Ram air exiting the heat exchangers enters the fan inlet diffuser housing and
is either pulled through to ambient by the fan or passes through the fan by-
pass check valve.
The heat exchanger contains access windows for inspection and cleaning of
the heat exchanger ram air circuit.
The fan bypass check valve is installed in the cooling pack between the fan
inlet diffuser housing and the ram air outlet duct, and allows ram air to by-
pass the air cycle machine fan whenever pressure in the ram air circuit ex-
ECS PACK
Primary
Secondary Condenser
Reheater
The air cycle machine provides the source for pack cooling. The external
structure consists of a fan and compressor housing, a first stage turbine
housing, and a second stage turbine housing. Each housing is made of cast
aluminium.
The ACM internal structure has two turbine rotors which drive a compressor
rotor and a cooling fan rotor.
The four rotors and two shaft segments turn as one assembly locked togeth-
er by a tie rod.
The assembly rotates in a pair of hydrodynamic, foil-type journal bearings.
Axial movement is limited by a pair of hydrodynamic thrust bearings. These
hydrodynamic foil-type bearings use no oil and require no scheduled main-
tenance.
The fan rotor is attached to one end of the assembly and is positioned adja-
cent to the fan shaft segment followed by the compressor rotor, first turbine
rotor, turbine shaft segment, and second turbine rotor. The turbine shaft seg-
ment includes both a journal bearing surface and the thrust disk on which
the two bearings act.
A tie-rod goes through the centre of the shaft and rotor segments and holds
the assembly together axially. The tie-rod is assembled with a high preload
which permits all components of the assembly to operate as a one shaft sys-
tem.
2 turbine stages
2 compressor stages
Second stage turbine housing
Air is cooled in the primary section of the dual heat exchanger using ram air
to remove the heat. The air is then compressed by the compressor portion
of the dual turbine ACM. The heat generated by compression is removed by
the secondary portion of the dual heat exchanger, using ram air. The air is
then passed through the condenser/reheater where it is sub-cooled within
the condenser using the cold exhaust air from the first stage turbine. This
cooling process condenses water from the air to permit it to be collected by
the water collector. The collected water is moved to the spray nozzle, which
is located in the secondary ram inlet header of the dual heat exchanger.
The water is sprayed on the ram air face of the core to increase the heat ex-
changer performance through evaporative cooling. After exiting the water
collector, the air flows through the re-heater portion where it is preheated to
increase first stage turbine performance.
After expansion through the first stage turbine portion of the ACM, the air
passes through the cold side condenser portion of the condenser/ reheater
where it removes the heat for condensation. After exiting the cold side of the
condenser, the air enters the second stage turbine of the ACM where it is
expanded to provide the cold air source for cabin cooling.

Water collectors
The water collector is a brazed and welded assembly. The collector body is
constructed of two aluminium-brazed sub assemblies welded together at the
outside diameter. Each section of the sub assembly is made of spun and hy-
dro-formed sheet metal parts.
The water collector removes water from the condenser/reheater heat ex-
changer and sends the dry air to the air cycle machine. A swirl vane at the
water collector inlet sends the water to the duct walls. A clearance between
the diffuser section and the air return diffuser section catches most of the
water from the airflow. A drain boss located at the lowest section of the col-
lector lets water drain by gravity and air pressure. An overflow drain boss lo-
cated slightly above the lowest point lets water drain if the primary port is
clogged.
The water spray nozzle is mounted in the ram air inlet ducting directly up-
stream of the dual heat exchanger. Water, which is collected in the water
collector, is routed through drain line to the water spray nozzle. The water
spray nozzle sprays the water on the ram inlet face of the secondary heat
exchanger. This cools the air that goes into the secondary heat exchanger
and improves heat exchanger performance.

The pack bypass valve is installed parallel to the air conditioning packs. It is

The air conditioning pack temperature control has five temperature sensors,
which supply data to the AMS controller.
All of these sensors are dual element sensors (except the pack inlet temper-
ature sensor, which has a single element) in order to improve system relia-
bility. The AMS controller monitors all sensor voltages in order to control
pack operation or determine pack failure.

The FADEC may send an ECS OFF signal to the AMS controller, requesting
that no bleed air be extracted from the engine for the air-conditioning sys-
tem. The FADEC sets this signal depending on the TDS input (REF ECS
OFF), pressure altitude, flight phase and engine failure detection.
If the ECS is bleeding air from the engine and the FADEC ECS OFF request
is true and Altitude is below 15 000 ft, both ECS packs will be commanded
OFF. The ECS cooling packs will be shut down at -30 ppm/ sec after receiv-
ing the ECS OFF signal from the FADEC. The APU can be used as a valid
bleed air source when the ECS OFF signal is set to true and Anti-ice is not
required.
In response to the ECS OFF signal the AMS controller has the following re-
quirements:
If the FADEC transitions the ECS OFF signal from true to false, the both
ECS cooling pack FCV’s will be automatically opened without any pilot ac-
tion. The AMS will disregard the FADEC ECS OFF signal if aircraft altitude
is above 15,000 ft.
In general, the AMS controller will use the ECS OFF signal from the in-con-
trol FADEC channel. If the AMS controller loses communication from one
SPDA then AMS controller will use the other SPDA as a backup source of
information for the ECS OFF and channel in control signals.
The time from the ECS OFF signal being received in the AMS controller to
ECS cooling pack FCV’s closing will be less than 5 seconds when com-
manded ON again by the AMS controller.

The temperature control system provides closed loop control for the flight
deck and passenger cabin. The cabin two-zone configuration is an aircraft-
selectable option.
The flight deck and passenger cabin temperatures are electronically control-
led by the AMS controller between 19°C and 30°C. The AMS controller com-
pares the actual temperature provided by the temperature sensors to the
selected temperature. If a difference exists, the AMS controller will adjust the
target duct temperature by modulating the pack bypass valve position until
the selected temperature is achieved. In case of ambient sensor failure, the
system defaults to the duct temperature sensor, and if the selector fails, the
system defaults to a 75°F/ 24°C zone temperature.

The passenger cabin receives air from the left and right air conditioning
packs, routed through the mixer duct, where it is blended with re circulated
air from the fans. Air is then routed to the front and aft passenger cabin dis-
tribution ducts. In the single cabin zone configuration, the passenger cabin
temperature is controlled by changing the right air conditioning pack outlet
temperature.
The single configuration includes two dual sensors, one ambient tempera-
ture sensor located in a Duct by the overhead bins, and the other cabin duct
temperature sensor downstream of the mixer.
Cabin Zone Temperature Sensor uses ejector to draw ambient air across
sensor element.
The two cabin zone configuration uses a separate trim system for independ-
ent control of forward and aft cabin zones. for both the forward and aft cabin zone ducts. The AMS controller will then
modulate the right pack bypass valve, via the torque motor command, to
meet the coldest cabin duct target temperature. The trim bypass valve for
Hot air is tapped from the right air conditioning pack for zone temperature the coldest zone will be sent a signal to close. The AMS controller will then

The system includes: The trim air system utilizes two trim air modulating valves, two hot air ejec-
tors, and associated ducting to independently control the air temperature en-
tering the forward and aft passenger cabin distribution ducts. This is
• two trim modulating valves, accomplished by mixing hot air from the ejectors directly into the forward and
• two ejectors and aft distribution duct openings within the mixing duct. The amount of hot air
• three dual temperature sensors. flowing to the ejectors is controlled electronically by the AMS controller
through modulation of two trim air modulating valves.
The AMS will compare the actual temperature to the selected temperature
and calculate a target zone temperature for the forward and aft cabin zones.
The controller then modulate the right pack bypass valve to meet the select-
ed coldest cabin zone duct target temperature. The cold zone trim modulat-
ing valve closes. The controller modulates the opposite trim valve to meet
the selected warmest cabin zone duct temperature.
The passenger cabin temperature is selected by the flight crew using the
PAX CABIN selector. The forward and aft passenger cabin zone tempera-
tures can be selected by the flight attendant using CABIN TEMPERATURE
selectors located on the attendant control panels.
The passenger cabin zone requiring the coldest air is controlled by modula-
tion of the right pack bypass valve. The opposite zone (warmest zone) tem-
perature is controlled by modulation of the trim air modulating valve related
to that zone.
Temperature sensors located in the forward and aft cabin zone and in the
forward and aft cabin ducts provide actual temperature via electronic signals
to the AMS controller.
The AMS controller compares the selected zone temperatures to actual
zone temperatures. The difference between the selected temperature and
the actual zone temperature is used to calculate a target duct temperature
The zone trim valves regulate hot bleed flow to the trim ejectors, which are
installed in the mixer duct.
The valves are fail-safe closed and can be manually locked in the closed po-
sition. The trim ejectors directionally inject hot bleed air into the forward and
aft cabin outlet ducts.

Slat anti- ice System
The Slat anti-ice system provides wing anti-ice flow and temperature control
to meet all aircraft operating requirements.
The system controls the flow of hot bleed air from the engines to the left and
right wing slat piccolo tubes. The left and right systems are identical. Skin
temperature sensors and a pressure sensor provide signals to the Air Man-
agement System controller for system monitoring, and to modulate the slat
anti-ice valves.
The system interfaces directly with the ice detection system to provide fully
automatic system activation when an icing condition is detected.

Aerodynamic Fence system description
The Emb 190 has an aerodynamic fence installed on the leading edge of the
main wing body and is located span wise at the interface between the Slat
1 and the fixed wing.
The fence ice protection system is a thermal anti-ice system that utilizes hot
bleed air from each engine to provide thermal energy.It protects the fence
external surface, which is exposed to free stream flow, against ice accretion,
in order to preserve its aerodynamic function.Hot engine bleed air is tapped
from a duct downstream of the Wing Anti-Ice Valve (WAIV), routed through
the fixed leading edge “D” bay until the fence location at interface between
the Slat 1 and wing main body.
Once the hot air reaches the fence inlet, it flows internally through a channel
(heated passage) and leaves the fence at the lower side, thus ensuring ap-
propriate heat flux distribution on the fence leading egde.
Since the engine hot air used in the fence ice protections system is tapped
from ducting downstream of the WAIV, the fence is anti iced any time the
Wing Anti-Ice System is activated (ice detector detects ice or manual activa-
tion).

Nacelle Anti-Icing system
The engine anti-ice system supplies hot air from the engine to its inlet cowl
to prevent the hazardous formation of ice on the inlet lipskin.
The EAI system consists of the supply ducting from the 5th stage bleed duct,
an EAI valve (an ON/OFF shut off valve with an integral open position
switch), an EAI line pressure transducer, a dedicated muscle line for the EAI
valve from the starter duct, a swirl nozzle distribution system, and an ex-
haust vent in the inlet “D” duct.The EAI system’s primary control is by the
AMS system.
Signals are provided to the aircraft’s monitoring and maintenance system.
Hot air is extracted from the engine’s high pressure compressor (HPC) at the
low pressure, 5th stage bleed port.The air for the EAI system is tapped from
the 5th stage bleed duct of the air management system (AMS).The EAI port
of the duct is upstream of the AMS check-valve assuring that an air supply
is always available to the EAI system when the engine is running.

Ice Protection Control Panel
The Ice Protection system flight deck interface is provided via the ice protec-
tion control panel.Control switches for engine and air foil anti-ice permit se-
lection of engine anti-ice 1-2 and wing anti-ice ON or OFF.When the switch
is selected OFF the strip bar is shown in the switch, and when selected ON
the switch is dark, according to the dark cockpit philosophy.When actual
anti-ice is operational, an EICAS message is provided for the respective sys-
tem.
Engine or wing anti-ice operation also depends on the position of the Mode
switch.In AUTO position engine and wing anti-ice will be activated by an ice
detector signal.In Override position engine and wing anti-ice will be activated
by a weight off wheel signal.
The test selector switch has three positions: ENG, OFF, WING.During
ground test the switch will activate the respective system if engine and wing
anti-ice is selected ON.
A flight deck interface for selecting windshield anti-ice is also provided on the
ice protection panel.
Switch selection for these systems will connect electrical power to wind-
shield 1-2.
Windshield heating will be operational when the engine is running or the air-
carft is weight off wheels.

The slat anti-ice system utilizes hot bleed air from the engine to supply ther-
mal energy through the slat anti-ice valve via the telescoping duct to the slat
2,3 and 4 piccolo tubes. Holes in the piccolo tubes cause the hot air to im-
pinge on the inner surface of the slat, creating the heat needed to prevent
ice build-up on the slat. The AMS controller receives signals from the pres-
sure transducers and from the slat skin temperature sensors, to modulate
the slat anti-ice valve.

Wing Anti-Ice Valve
The wing anti-ice valve is located in the pylons, and is a butterfly valve pow-
ered by a pneumatic servo actuator. The wing anti-ice valve is normally in
the closed position and is pneumatically actuated and electronically control-
led. When electrical current is applied to the torque motor, the valve moves
towards the open position. With no electrical current applied to the torque
motor, the valve will remain closed. A position switch mounted on the valve
is used to provide open/closed indication for system monitoring and cockpit
display. The valve contains a manual locking mechanism which can be used
to lock the valve in the closed position for certain dispatch guidelines. The
valve uses a wire mesh cylindrical filter to filter contaminants from the air
supply source. The AMS controller controls the modulation of the WAIV
(Wing Anti- Ice Valve) and increases or decreases torque motor current to
the valve, which causes the valve to open or close. The flow of hot air into
the right and left wing anti-ice ducts is controlled by modulation of the pres-
sure WAIV.

Wing anti-ice pressure sensor
A pressure sensor is mounted in the left and right anti-ice duct downstream
of the WAIV, which is used by the AMS controller to determine actual duct
pressures. The wing anti-ice pressure sensor is a 0-100 psia which is used
to monitor duct pressures downstream of the wing anti-ice valve. The sensor
provides an electronic signal to the AMS controller which is used for system
control and monitoring.

The telescoping duct extends and retracts with the wing slat and allows un-
interrupted flow during wing slat actuation.
The slat anti-ice system contains steel piccolo tubes that run through the
wing slat. Regulated bleed air flows through the telescoping duct and pres-
surizes the piccolo tube. The piccolo tube contains holes that allow hot air to
flow out into the wing's slat chamber for heating the slat skin. The piccolo
tube consists of three separate duct sections. When assembled into the air-
craft, these duct sections are connected in between slats by flexible sleeves
to allow movement.
Bleed air exhausts through the piccolo tube holes and circulates within the
front (nose) cavity. This air then passes through the slat top slots and into
the aft cavity. Finally, the air exits the slat via the air exit holes in the back-
wall of the slats.
In the retracted position, the air exits underneath the fixed wing, as there is
an aerodynamic seal between the slat an fixed leading edge.

Anti-Ice Leak Detectors
There are six anti-icing leak detector sensors that belong to ODS (Overheat
Detection System) to sense leak detection and overheat.
The ODS consists of dual-loop anti-icing leak detector sensors installed in
both LH and RH (Right-Hand) wing anti-icing areas.
A overheat condition is indicated only when the two redundant sensors (both
loops) indicate an overheat condition. When the sensors feel 124 ° (255 °F),
an overheat condition occurs and they send a signal to the AMS controller
over ARINC (Aeronautical Radio Incorporated) 429 Bus.

mized to meet the overall aircraft requirements. The system interfaces di-
rectly with the primary ice detection system. The ICE PROTECTION control
panel, located on the overhead panel in the cockpit, contains three switches:
• AUTO position - It enables the AMS to be activated only when icing is de-
tected by the ice detectors. Then, the system starts operating automati-
cally by at least one ice detector when icing condition is detected. This
allows for the conservation of bleed airflow when ice protection is not re-
quired.
• ON position - The WTAIS and EAIS (Engine Anti-Icing System) will be
continuously activated.
• OFF - Manual override mode. The WTAIS is OFF and the light of the
pushbutton is illuminated (white).
• AUTO - WTAIS is enabled. The WTAIS is activated when an icing condi-
tion is detected by one of the ice detectors. The light of push button is off.
• LEAK - When a leak is detected by the WTAIS, the word LEAK appears
on the pushbutton.

Operation
The flow of hot air into the right and the left wing anti-ice ducts is controlled
by modulation of WAIV pressure. The redundant loops of anti-ice leak detectors are mounted alongside the
slat anti-ice feeder ducting, the WAIV and telescoping tube, thus providing
During normal operation the middle sensor, located on slat 4 inboard is used rapid response to a duct leak. An overheat condition is indicated by the anti-

the WAIVs. loop operation).
The WAIVs are modulated by the AMS controller to meet a desired temper-
ature as sensed by a middle wing anti-ice temperature sensor. The desired
skin temperature is calculated as a function of slat position, ambient temper-
ature, Mach and altitude. The AMS controller calculates the desired skin
temperature and then uses this value to calculate a duct reference pressure
for both the left and right slat anti-ice ducts. The AMS controller then com-
pares the calculated duct reference pressure to the actual duct pressure
measured by the slat anti-ice pressure sensors. The AMS controller will then
modulate the WAIVs (by increasing or reducing torque motor current) so that
the actual duct pressure is equal to the calculated duct reference pressure.
Ice detectors are directly connected to the MAU, which sends the signals
across the ASCB to the SPDA. The SPDA sends signals to the AMS control-
ler. This allows the AMS controller to automatically activate hot air flow for
wing-ice protection by controlling the WAIV.
A steel anti-ice piccolo tube runs through the wing slat. Regulated bleed air
flows through the telescoping tube and pressurizes the anti-ice piccolo tube.
The piccolo tube contains a series of holes that allow the hot air to flow out
into the wing slat chamber providing the hot air source for heating of the slat
skin. The piccolo tube is made up of three separate duct sections. When as-
sembled into the aircraft these duct sections are connected between slats
by flexible sleeves to allow movement.

Aerodynamic Fence system description
The Emb 190 has an aerodynamic fence installed on the leading edge of the
main wing body and is located span wise at the interface between the Slat
1 and the fixed wing.
The fence ice protection system is a thermal anti-ice system that utilizes hot
bleed air from each engine to provide thermal energy.It protects the fence
external surface, which is exposed to free stream flow, against ice accretion,
in order to preserve its aerodynamic function.Hot engine bleed air is tapped
from a duct downstream of the Wing Anti-Ice Valve (WAIV), routed through
the fixed leading edge “D” bay until the fence location at interface between
the Slat 1 and wing main body.
Once the hot air reaches the fence inlet, it flows internally through a channel
(heated passage) and leaves the fence at the lower side, thus ensuring ap-
propriate heat flux distribution on the fence leading edge.
Since the engine hot air used in the fence ice protection system is tapped
from ducting downstream of the WAIV, the fence is anti iced any time the
Wing Anti-Ice System is activated (ice detector detects ice or manual activa-
tion).

The engine anti-ice system supplies hot air from the engine to its inlet cowlto
prevent the hazardous formation of ice on the inlet lipskin.
The EAI system consists of the supply ducting from the 5th stage bleed duct,
an EAI valve (an ON/OFF shut off valve with an integral open position
switch), an EAI line pressure transducer, a dedicated muscle line for the EAI
valve from the starter duct, a swirl nozzle distribution system, and an ex-
haust vent in the inlet “D” duct.The EAI system’s primary control iy by the
AMS system.
Signals are provided to the aircraft monitoring and maintenance systems.
Hot air is extracted from the engine’s high pressure compressor (HPC) at the
low pressure., 5th stage bleed port.The air for the EAI system is tapped from
the 5th stage bleed duct of the air management system (AMS).The EAI port
of the duct is upstream of the AMS check-valve assuring that an air supply
is always available to the EAI system when the engine is running.

The EAI valve is an ON/OFF shut-off valve and is located in the system sup-
ply ducting in the fan compartment.The EAI valve controls the bleed airflow
from the AMS supply duct into the anti-ice system.The EAI valve is an elec-
trically controlled, pneumatically operated valve that is spring loaded to the
open position.The valve may be locked in either the open or closed posi-
tion.The aircraft may be dispatched with the valve locked in the open or
closed position in accordance with MEL.
The valve contains an integral valve position switch to indicate when the
valve is in the open position.The switch contacts are closed when the valve
is open.The switch and the solenoid share a single electrical connector.
The anti-ice pressure transducer is mounted to the aft bulkhead of the inlet
cowl on the compartment side.The transducer is connected to the anti-ice air
supply duct immediately aft of the aft bulkhead.The pressure transducer
monitors the anti-ice system pressure and sends a signal to the MAU to in-
dicate pressure in the anti-ice system downstream of the EAI valve.

From the inlet aft bulkhead connection, the anti-ice air continues forward
through a single-walled duct located between the inner and outer barrels of
the inlet cowl.This anti-ice duct spans the space between the aft and forward
inlet bulkheads.
At the inlet forward bulkhead connection, the air passes into the swirl nozzle
mounted inside the “D” duct formed by the inlet lip skin and the forward bulk-
head.The anti-ice air exits the swirler tube and circulates inside the “D” duct
heating the lipskin to prevent hazardous ice formation on the outer surface.
The EAI air circulates around the circumference of the “D” duct after exiting
the swirler tube to the bottom if the inlet where it exits the “D” duct through
six slots in the lipskin.The slots are sized to optimize the swirl system’s per-
formance.
The anti-ice duct system carries the air from the EAI port on the 5th stage
bleed duct in the core compartment to the inlet side of the EAI valve mount-
ed in the fan compartment.A short duct carries the air from the outlet side of
the EAI valve into the anti-ice connection on the inlet cowl’s aft bulkhead.
The anti-ice ducts are single walled except for the duct that passes through
the 9 o’clock strut of the fan frame.This short section is double walled with
the inter-wall cavity vented into the fan compartment.The purpose of this
double walled section is to prevent a burst duct from exposing the fan frame
to high temperature and high pressure air.
The duct inside the core compartment is not insulated but the ducts inside
the fan compartment are covered with insulation blankets.

Swirl nozzle head of the inlet cowl has no panels to permit access to and inspection of

The swirl nozzle is located inside the “D” duct at the 7 o’clock position (clock-
wise, aft-looking-forward).It is attached to the forward bulkhead with four
bolzs and is connected to the supply duct with a sleeve fitting and various
seals.The purpose of the nozzle is to deliver EAI air to the interior of the “D”
duct, which heats the inner surface and prevents ice accumulation on the ex-
terior surface of the lipskin.The nozzle delivers hot air through three elliptical
discharge openings with an effective diameter of 1.14 inches.These open-
ings are sized such that the flow is choked during normal and valve locked
open operation.
Inlet Lip
The inlet lip is made from a single piece of aluminium alloy.It is attached to
the top and bottom of the forward bulkhead.The inlet lip and the forward
bulkhead form the “D” duct.
The EAI air exits the “D” duct through six slots located at 6 o’clock on the
lipskin close to the intersection between the lip skin and the bulkhead.The
slots are sized to optimize the performance of the swirl system.
The engine anti-ice system heats the lipskin of the inlet cowl using 5th stage
bleed air to prevent potentially harmful ice accumulation.The primary control
of the EAI system is by an aircraft-mounted AMS controlled automatic ice
detection system.A manual override to the automatic ice detection system is
available to the flight crew.
The system is activated via a solenoid controlled, pneumatically actuated,
ON/OFF shut-off valve (the engine anti-ice valve).The valve may be manu-
ally locked in either the fully open or fully closed position.The valve contains
an integral position switch to indicate when the valve is in the open position.
An EAI pressure transducer is also provided to monitor duct pressure down-
stream of the EAI valve and thus confirm proper operation of the EAI system.
The EAI system for each engine is completely independent of the other en-
gine and EAI bleed cannot be shared between engines.In the case of single
bleed operation (one engine supplies all bleed to aircraft), the AMS control-
ler drives the cross bleed valve open so that pressure to the dedicated mus-
cle lines for both EAI valves is ensured.
The logic used for controlling the EAI valves is shown in Figure .The EAI
valve actuating solenoid must be energized in order to drive the valve
closed.AMS controllers process ice detector signals, cockpit switches in-
puts, altitude, settings in the takeoff data set (TDS) menu and a permissive
from the FADEC in order to determine whether the engine’s EAI solenoid
valve may be energized.The EAI system is normally activated by any of the
ice detectors and manually activate the system by rotating the rotary switch
to the ON position.
The system, including the inlet, has been designed to permit dispatch of the

The integrated pitot/static/AOA sensors are located on the nose of the air-
craft. The integrated pitot/static/AOA sensors 1 and 2 are symmetrically lo-
cated further forward and lower on the nose than the symmetrically located
integrated pitot/static/AOA sensors 3 and 4.
Each of the integrated pitot/static/AOA sensors includes resistive heating el-
ements to protect them against ice formation, thus providing a safe opera-
tion of the sensor under icing environments.
The MFP utilizes a single heater element to ensure that the probe strut and
head remain ice-free. The ADC monitors the TAT (Total Air Temperature)
and MFP current to detect heater failures and actively controls the heater
temperature.
The probe heat control functionality significantly increases the life of the
MFP by providing the necessary power required to keep the probe free from
ice.

The MFP utilizes a single heating element with redundant heater control cir-
cuitry in the ADC that increases the heater system availability. With the heat-
er element, the MFP ensures that the probe strut remains free from ice
formation.
The ADC monitors the MFP current to detect heater failures and actively
controls the heater temperature. Each channel in the ADC has independent
current sensors to detect heater failure conditions. The life of the MFP is
greatly improved by controlling the heater temperature.

Operation
When the integrated pitot/static/AOA sensors are functioning during aircraft • Current monitors have failed
ground operations, minimal heat is required and applied to the probes as op-
posed to conventional probes which will continue to have maximum power • Primary and secondary voltage monitors are out of tolerance
applied. However the MFP is provided with the additional power necessary • Under voltage supply to the integrated pitot/static/AOA sensor
to maintain ice-free operation in cold temperature environments. The heater
control methodology for the integrated pitot/static/AOAs is based on the re-
lationship between the power needed to keep the probe free from ice and
the resistance of the heater (the temperature of the heater is proportional to
the resistance of the heater wire).

Introduction
The static port heating system permits safe operation in icing conditions.
The static pressure port is installed in the rear left side of the aircraft fuse-
lage. It belongs to cabin pressure relief. The static port heating system per-
mits safe operation in icing conditions.
The static port provides ambient pressure through the sensing orifices and
transmits it to the safety valve through the static port line in order to allow the
over pressure relief work.
The static pressure port is made of nickel-plated brass. It has an inlet screen
that prevents foreign objects from blocking the inlet and an integral heater
that prevents blockage by condensation and ice. The heater is supplied from
the aircraft 28 VDC (Volt Direct Current) essential bus 1.

Introduction
The TAT (Total Air Temperature) heating system of the anti-icing system
permits safe operation in icing conditions.
The TAT sensor heating system comprises two TAT sensors located on the
nose of the aircraft. The temperature of the heating element of the TAT sen-
sor is controlled and monitored by the integrated pitot/static/AOA heating
system through the ADC (Air Data Computer).
The ADC monitors the TAT current to detect heater failures and actively con-
trols the heater temperature.
Each channel in the ADC has independent current sensors to detect heater
failure conditions. By controlling the heater temperature, the life of the TAT
sensor is greatly improved.
The ADC controller logic measures the voltage supplied to the heaters and
the current to each heaters. The logic then adjusts the duty cycle, in 10% in-
crements from 10% to 100% to supply more or less average power depend-
ing on the current level.

Operation
Each of the TAT sensors has resistive heater elements to accomplish de - • Current monitors have failed
icing and anti-icing capabilities of the probes for continued sensor accuracy
in icing environments. The ADC monitors the TAT current to detect heater • Primary and secondary voltage monitors are out of tolerance
failures and actively controls the heater temperature. • Under voltage supply to the integrated pitot/static/AOA
The TAT heating system works during aircraft ground operations with mini-
mal heat required and applied to the probes. However, the TAT sensor will
be provided with the additional power necessary to maintain ice-free opera-
tion in cold temperature environments. The heater control methodology for
the TAT sensors is based on the relationship that the power needed to keep
the probe free from ice is proportional to the resistance of the heater (the
temperature of the heater is proportional to the resistance of the heater
wire).
The TAT heating system will be commanded ON/OFF by automatic systems
based on SPDA 1.
After receiving power from the 28 VDC input lines, the TAT sensors will op-
erate in the normal mode. The monitoring and control functions of the probe
determine the amount of power that will be applied to the MFP (Multi-Func-
tion Probe).
The controlling logic measures the voltage supplied to each of the heaters
and the current through each of the heaters. From this information, the pow-
er that is being instantaneously dissipated in the probe is calculated by the
integrated pitot/static/AOA sensors. The logic then adjusts the duty cycle, in
10% increments from 10% to 100%, to supply more or less average power
depending on the instantaneous current level. In normal operation, the inte-
grated pitot/static/AOA sensor will not, at any time, provide a duty cycle low-
er than 10%. The power will be set to full on flight condition (airspeed higher
than 60 kts). See the block diagram for functional operation of the heater
control during normal operation.
The heater control functions are monitored to detect abnormal operation
during the power-up and continuous BIT operations of the integrated pitot/
static/AOA sensors.
In general, if any abnormal condition is identified, the heater control function
will force the heater control duty cycle to 100% (full power). The conditions
that would result in full power heater to the integrated pitot/static/AOA sen-
sors are:

The motor converter, located in the nose section in front of the windshields,
converts the rotary input from the motor into oscillating motion needed to
sweep the blades across the windshield. The WWMC unit convert high-
speed rotary motion of its electric motor to usable low speed and high torque
oscillatory motion of the output shaft.
Power input to the controller is 28VDC from bus 2 and bus 3, while rectifica-
tion input to the motor is 115VAC. When both pilot and co-pilot wiper control
switches are set to the same position, the pilot motor control assembly acts
as a master and will synchronize the blade sweep.
Wiper arm
The windshield wiper arm is attached to the motor converter serrated shaft.
A bolt and washer holds the arm on the shaft. The arms provide the connec-
tion between the motor converter shaft and the wiper blades.
Wiper blade
The windshield wiper blade is attached to the windshield wiper arm by a nut
and bolt. The blades contact and sweep the windshield of the aircraft. The
blade applies a force of 10 +/- 1 lbf on the windshield.

Control panel
The windshield wiper system is operated from the cockpit control panel. The
panel includes two selector switches, and each of the switches has four dif-
ferent positions. In OFF position, the associated wiper blade travels to the
windshield inboard position, parking out of the pilot vision.
When the selector switch is in LOW position, the wiper operates at 80 cycles
per minute. When in HI mode the wiper operates at 125 cycles per minute.
TIMER mode provides an intermittent high speed operation of the associat-
ed windshield wiper in single cycles (two strokes) with a 7 seconds time in-
terval between the cycles.

Operation of the wipers can be independent in low, high speed and timer
mode, or synchronized when both selector switch are selected to the same
position. Synchronization occurs within eight strokes for low and high
speeds, and after one stroke for timer mode.
When the switch is selected OFF, the controller reverses the motor and
moves the blade to the off-screen parked position. In the stationary condi-
tion, the controller will employ an electro-mechanical brake for position hold-
ing.
Dry windshield operation leads the motor converter to a stalled condition due
to high friction. The controller senses the motor converter current surge and
drives the arm directly to the parked position. The system remains inopera-
tive until the selector is set to OFF and a new operation mode is selected.

Operation The continuous BIT is used to check:
The power-up BIT is always performed when the WHCU receives a reset
signal. In the normal operation, the WHCU starts by executing its power-up
BIT routine.
After the power-up BIT is completed, the WHCU starts automatically the
ramp warm-up mode to prevent thermal shock to the windshield when the
system starts to run. The ramp warm-up increases in uniform steps during 3
to 4 minutes and when this mode is completed the normal control mode
starts immediately.
In the normal control mode, the WHCU keeps the windshield temperature in
the range of 33.9 to 36.67 °C (93 to 98 °F). When the temperature sent by
the control sensor is below 33.9 °C (93 °F), the WHCU heater is energized
power on, and when the temperature is above 36.67 °C (98 °F), the WHCU
heater is deenergized. In normal condition, no faults are detected and the
WHCU sends the fault code for “normal” to SPDA 1.

The insulation blankets are wrapped up on top of the electric heaters as well,
thus, providing increased thermal efficiency for the heaters. The water tank
blanket is covered by an insulation finishing attached with adhesive tape.
The potable water tank support is also covered with paper boards to improve
and give more insulation to the low temperature from the aircraft structure
that can freeze the water inside the potable water tank.
The thermostats close on temperature drop below 7.2 °C (45 °F), and open
on temperature rise above 15.6 °C (60 °F).

The VWS rinse nipple heater is a flat panel heater installed between the
waste service panel and the VWS rinse nipple. The heater prevents waste
fluid from freezing in the rinse line. The heater is made of a resistive material
(electro-thermal silicone elastomer) and operates on 115 VAC single phase,
at 21 W. In case of failure or malfunction, a circuit breaker protects the VWS
service-panel drain-valve heater.
The heater has a thermostat that maintains the temperature in a safe range
for incidental touch in the exposed areas.
For the VWS service-panel drain-valve, there is a heater installed between
the waste service panel and the drain-valve.
The heater is an electro-thermal resistive device made of a silicone elas-
tomer and operates on 115 VAC at a temperature of 60 °C (33.8 °F), that is
considered safe for an incidental touch of the drain-valve. In case of failure
or malfunction of the heater, a circuit breaker interrupts the power supply to
the heater.
For the VWS rinse nipple, there is a heater installed between the waste serv-
ice panel and the rinse nipple. The heater is an electro thermal resistive de-
vice made of a silicone elastomer and operates on 115 VAC at a
temperature range from 13 to 18 °C (55 to 65 °F), controlled by a thermo-
stats. In case of failure or malfunction, a circuit breaker protects the VWS
rinse nipple heater.

Operation
Both drain masts are controlled by the WWSC (Water and Waste System
Controller). The drain mast heating is switched on if the temperature sensor
in the drain mast signals low temperature and switched off if the temperature
is high.
The aircraft monitors a sensor mounted in the copper base of the drain mast
and maintains the temperature of the sensor at 71 +/- 4 °C (160 +/- 7 °F).
When the surface temperature of the copper bas of the Heated Drain Mast
falls below 5 °C (41 +/- 5 °F), a safety signal thermostat opens to annunciate
the temperature drop as a fault.
In the event of power controller failure, a thermal cut-off fuse opens when
the temperature of the copper base of the Heated Mast drain reaches 184
+/- 5 °C (363 +/- 7.2 °F) to protect against overheat.
The fill/drain nipple heater is a 115 VAC 400 Hz single powered and control-
led by an internal heater element and thermostat. Power consumption is 40
VA. The internal thermostat opens at 49 °C (120 °F) and closes at 32 °C (90
°F). This creates an on-off cycle for added reliability and component longev-
ity.

The Water Waste System Controller is able to monitor system and compo-
nent failures, and addresses messages to the CMC or to the flight attendant
panel.
The flight attendant WATER SYSTEM fault LED indicator is ON, if the indi-
cated temperature of the forward drain mast is continuously less than 35 °C
for 5 minutes, or if the indicated temperature of either drain mast is continu-
ously greater than 70 °C for 2 minutes. CMC provides two kinds of messag-
es: FWD DRAIN MAST FAULT or AFT DRAIN MAST FAULT. Both failures
will inhibit the in-flight drain system.

Failure Messages
The system provides failure messages on the CMC and on the EICAS dis-
play. The EICAS advisory message ICE CONDITION indicates that the left
or right ice detector has detected icing condition in flight. This message is
inhibited below 1700 ft above airfield.
The EICAS caution message ICE DETECTOR 1/2 FAIL indicates ice detec-
tor failure. If one ice detector fails the aircraft can be dispatched into icing
conditions. If the second ice detector also fails, the aircraft cannot be dis-
patched into known icing conditions.

The system is made up of the fire and smoke detection subsystem and the
fire extinguishing subsystem.
Areas of the EMBRAER 190 that are monitored or protected by the fire pro-
tection system include:
• The engines,
• the APU,
• the 2 cargo compartments,
• the lavatories and
• lavatory waste bins.
In addition, portable fire extinguishers are located in the cockpit and cabin.
Figure 1: Fire protected areas
The engines
The APU
The lavatories
In addition, portable fire extinguishers are located in the cockpit and cabin.
The engines and APU are monitored by a fire and overheat detection sys-
tem. If a fire occurs in either the engine or APU compartment it can be extin-
guished by the respective fire extinguishing system.
The lavatories are equipped with a smoke detection system to alert the crew.
In case of a fire in the lavatory waste bins, a fire extinguisher will automati-
cally be discharged into the waste bin. To fight a fire on board, the crew can
make use of the portable fire extinguishers installed in the cabin and cockpit
areas.

a system test of the MAU`s, the integrity of the system, the detectors and the
related EICAS messages.
When you push the fire detection system test button, the EICAS will show
the following indications:
The following sequence will also be initiated when the fire detection system
test button is engaged: The fire handles, the APU emergency stop and APU
fire extinguishing buttons illuminate, the bagg extinguisher button comes on,
the master warning and caution lights flash, and the aural warning sounds.
When the button is released, all messages and lights turn off.

The power plant Fire Protection System is designed and installed to provide
proper engine fire containment, fire and overheat detection and fire extin-
guishing to protect the fire zones, as well as providing shutoff means to stop
falmmable fluids (fuel and hydraulic fluids) flowing into fire zones.It also in-
cludes the Engine Fire Protection Control and Indication system in the cock-
pit.
The following are the applicable Zone classification for the CF34-10E pro-
pulsion system:
1. The Inlet Compartment is classified as an Other Zone, due to the fact that
there is no flammable fluid line and component in this compartment.
2. The Fan Compartment is classified as a Fire Zone per FAR 25.1181, due
to the fact that this compartment contains the engine accessory section,
Nacelle Anti Icing (NAI) line, and most of the flammable fluid lines such
as fuel, oil, and hydraulic fluids.
3. The Thrust Reverser Compartment is classified as a Flammable Fluid
Leakage Zone instead of Fire Zone, due to the existence of Flammable
Fluid Lines and Electrical Wire may become flammable fluid leak source
and ignition source respectively during failure condition.
4. The Engine Core Compartment is also classified as a Fire Zone per FAR
25.1181, containing the compressor, combustor, turbine, lines or compo-
nents carrying flammable fluids.

INLET COMPARTMENT FAN COMPARTMENT TRAS COMPARTMENT COMPARTMENT
(FIRE ZONE #1) (FLAMMABLE FLUID) (FIRE ZONE #2)
Other protection to prevent “break out” of fire from the fire zone includes the
following:
1. Fire seals are provided at the interface channel to the pylon and at any
removable firewall to their interface.Lines that pass from the firezone to
outer locations have bulkhead fittings or are provided with tight, compliant
rubber seals of thickness and mounting that have been proven to be fire-
proof by testing.
2. Air and fluid lines that pass through the firezone boundaries are made of
steel.
3. Air vents are designed not to enlarge if hot gas or flame passes through
them.
Figure 5: Fire Seal
The ventilation through the fire zone is provided from the ram recovery air
and Fan bypass air for the Fan Compartment and Engine Core Compart-
ment respectively.
Fan Compartment
The fan compartment consists of the space between the engine fan case
and the outer cowl, which is enclosed by the inlet aft bulkhead and the thrust
reverser bulkhead.The net volume of the fan compartment is 49.5 cu ft.The
Maximum Ventilation flow rate at the max speed of the aircraft that can sus-
tain with One Engine Inoperative (OEI) at Windmilling condition is deter-
mined to be 0.73 pps.
There are two separate provisions for ambient air to enter the Fan compart-
ment in order to facilitate adequate cooling through proper installation of the
internal equipment.They are: Two Upper flash inlets at the Inlet barrel LH
and RH side at approximately 11 o’clock and 01 o’clock position, respective-
ly.
The FADEC has a dedicated cooling system and will not interfere with the
nacelle cooling system.
The fan compartment has one means for the air to exit back to the free
stream, under normal operating conditions.This exit is the louvered exhaust
vent located at the aft lower fan cowl.
§
Figure 6: Fan Fire Zone Ventilation
The Engine Core Compartment consists of the space between the engine
case and the engine core cowl, which is enclosed by the inner support ring
core cowl.
The cooling air will be provided by five holes in the cowl support ring.All five
holes are located outside of the upper 90 degrees quadrant to enhance fire
safety.Three holes of 0.73’’ diameter are installed on the same side as the
airframe ECS systems and two holes (one hole of 0.73’’ diameter, and one
hole of 0.83’’ diameter) on the other side.This arrangement induces a venti-
lating airflow from the front to the back of the compartment.This arrange-
ment induces a ventilating airflow from the front to the back of the
compartment.Cooling and ventilation air is exhausted at the aft end of the
compartment through the annulus formed by the engine primary nozzle and
the core cowls.Air is prohibited from exhausting through the upper 90° quad-
rants by the turkey feather seal between primary nozzle and pylon.
The net Volume of Engine Core Compartment is approximately 28.2 cu ft.
The Maximum Ventilation flow rate at the max speed that the aircraft can
sustain with One Engine Inoperative (OEI) at Windmilling condition was de-
termined to be 0.65 pps.

The drain system provides a “pathway” to discharge waste fluids from the
engine, nacelle cavities, and accessories.
The Engine Drain system removes normal flammable fluid leakage from the
Engine related systems, whilst the Nacelle Drain system provides drainage
following a failure condition of any flammable fluid line or component leak-
age failure inside either fire zone.
Waste fluids are captured in tubing designed to collect the fluid and dis-
charge the fluid overboard through drain masts that are located at the lowest
point in the system.
The system relies on gravity to transport the waste fluids from to the drain
mast.
Two drain masts are used to expel the drained fluids from the engine core
compartment and Fan compartments.The masts are offset to help identify
the origin of the fluid.The forward mast contains the accessory gearbox com-
ponent and pad drains as well as the oil scupper and pylon drains.The aft
mast contains the fuel drains from the core mounted components and the
core pylon.The masts extend beyond the boundary layer of the fan cowl in
order to prevent nacelle streaking with drained fluids.A drip lip is incorporat-
ed into the drain mast to prevent the drained fluids from running back on the
mast itself.

The engine fire detection system comprises four assemblies of fire detec-
tors, two assemblies of fire detectors installed in the Fan compartment and
another two assemblies of fire detectors installed in the core compart-
ment.Each fire detector assembly consists of two pneumatic fire detectors
designated as loop A and loop B.
The fire detectors are electrically connected in two loops, A and B, with 4 de-
tectors for each loop, to the MAU that processes the electrical signal and
provides related messages to the EICAS and the CMC.Both DC and DC es-
sential power supplies provide electric powers to the associated MAU for en-
gine fire detection systems.

detection of any fire or overheat even in the fire zone.Two sets of dual loop
fire detectors (801-DRL model) have been designated for the Fan compart-
ment.Another two sets of dual loop Fire detectors (801-DRL model) have
been designated for the engine core compartment.
Opening the Fan Cowl will provide the full access to the RH Fan and LH Fan
fire detector loops.While opening the Engine Core Cowl will provide access
to the upper case and lower case fire detector loops in the engine core com-
partments.
Each rail is provided with loop identification on each end of the rail to avoid
harnesses misconnection.
The fire detector assemblies are mounted on 1/2 inch diameter support tube
with welved metal sensor clamps.The welved metal sensor clamp is
equipped with PTFE bushing liner supporting the sensing element.
The electrical harnesses of each engine 1 and 2 and for each loop A and B
will be segregated inside the fuselage area and connected independently to
the MAU, to provide system redundancy.

The fire detector pneumatic sensor element is a stainless steel capillary tube
with a continuous length.This thermal sensing pneumatic element has a
center core in its full length that is wound in an inert metallic material (mo-
lybdenum ribbon) and charged with an active gas.
The centre core has intrinsic sponge-like and desorption properties in re-
sponse to temperature thresholds.This provides discrete sensing capabili-
ties through the inactive Helium gas in the void area around the centre core.

The alarm pressure switch is normally open.It moves over the centre when
the pressure force against the diaphragm reaches a set value, which hap-
pens at a certain temperature.With the diaphragm against the centre con-
tact pin, an electric signal is provided to the control module.
When the pressure against the diaphragm decreases below the activation
force, the diaphragm moves back over the centre away from the stationary
contact pin and opens the electrical path.The integrity pressure switch oper-
ates when the pressure sensor is below the minimum normal range.It push-
es the diaphragm against the centre contact pin, providing an electrical
signal to the MAU.
The housing assembly has a protective shell with all responder assembly
components inside.It has an electrical connector on one end and the sensor
element on the other.

When a fire detector senses fire, it will short circuit, and the MAU will identify
that this loop has detected fire.The fire detectors are a dual-loop configura-
tion, which means that each detector of loop A has a correspondent detector
of loop B protecting the same area.
In normal operation, the fire alarm will be provided in the cockpit only when
both loops detect fire.
If the master warning button is then pushed, the master warning light goes
off and the aural warning is cancelled, but the applicable engine fire mes-
sage stays on.The fire alarm remains ON until the fire is extinguished.

NORMAL OPERATION:
• In normal operation (both loops operational) the system will use AND log-
ic, what means that the fire alarm will be provided in the cockpit alerting
flight crew only when both loops detect fire.The fire alarm remains ON un-
til the fire is extinguished.
• In case of just one loop detect the fire (considering both loops good), after
ten (10) seconds, the MAU will consider this loop failed and shall not dis-
play the fire alarm.Therefore in case of dormant failure (not recognized
by MAU) of one loop, even through the second one provides the fire sig-
nal the fire alarm will not be provided to the crew.

The APU tail cone has two compartments - the APU compartment and the
silencer compartment.
The APU Fire/Overheat Detection Subsystem uses two pneumatic fire de-
tectors to detect a fire or overheat condition in the APU compartment. The
fire detectors are similar to the engine fire detector in design and function.
The fire detectors are connected to MAU 1 and 3, which supply indications
to the EICAS and CMC.

The APU fire detection system receives electrical power from the Essential
DC Busses via the MAUs.
There are two loops with one detector each, protecting the same area. Loop
A is connected to MAU 1 and loop B is connected to MAU 3. If both loops
detect a fire condition during normal operation, then the MAUs will generate
an “APU FIRE” warning message in the cockpit, and the upper half of the
APU Emergency Stop button will be illuminated in red. When pressed, this
button will shut down the APU immediately, the red illumination will turn
OFF, illuminating the lower part of this switch in white, and the APU fire ex-
tinguisher switch will illuminate.
Note that the fire alarm remains ON until the fire is extinguished.

If, in the event of fire, one minute has passed without the MAU receiving a
positive indication that the APU Emergency Stop Switch was pressed, the
APU fire extinguish switch will illuminate.
If there is an APU fire on ground, the APU will shut down automatically after
ten seconds if there is no commanded shutdown through the APU Emergen-

The fire detectors will be continuously monitored. When both loops are
failed, an "APU FIRE DET FAIL" message will be displayed on the EICAS.
If only one loop is inoperative, a fault message identifying the failed detector
will be shown on the CMC.
In case of a fire detector loop failure, this loop will not be considered by the
MAU, and the fire alarm will be provided in the cockpit when the operative
loop detects fire.

The lavatory smoke detection system detects smoke in the lavatories and
warns the crew.
The lavatory smoke detection system is provided with the following indica-
tions:
• CAS messages,
• aural indication through a smoke detector built-in chime,
• visual indication through the smoke detector and the FWD and AFT
attendant light indicator panels installed on the FWD LH entrance
ceiling panel and AFT main ceiling panel, and
• CMC fault reporting.

The smoke sensor installed on the lavatory ceiling uses the ionization prin-
ciple.
The sensor has a small quantity of radioactivity, which ionizes the air inside
an electric field between electrodes P1 and P2.
When small particles of smoke go into the smoke detector, the ionized air
molecules attach to these particles, increasing the ionized particle mass.
This decreases the velocity of the ionized particles and therefore the ioniza-
tion current.
As the current decreases and the applied voltage is constant, the electrical
resistance between the two poles of the electrical field increases. This small
variation of the electrical resistance in the ionization chamber of the sensor
is then used to produce a warning signal.
Note that the sensor is less sensitive to cigarette smoke than to other smoke
sources.
Figure 2: The smoke detector function
Am241
Sampling of smoke begins immediately after the power is applied from the
Essential DC BUS 1 or 2, and is indicated by a green power indicator.
When the smoke ion density reaches the threshold, the outputs, alarm horn
and red indicator turn on.
There is also an interrupt switch to reset the horn and outputs and return to
normal sampling when the smoke has cleared.
The FWD Attendant Light Indicator Panel indicates FWD Lavatory smoke
and the Aft Attendant Light Indicator Panel indicates Aft Lavatory smoke. On
the FWD FLT Attendant Panel there are two Lavatory Smoke Detection Sys-
tem test switches, one for the forward and one for the aft lavatory.

sembly and is audible from anywhere in the cabin.
• The flashing amber light on the Attendant Light Indicator Panel will
be activated, giving the cabin crew visual indication of the detection
of smoke from anywhere in the passenger compartment. The FWD
Attendant Light Indicator Panel indicates FWD Lavatory smoke and
the Aft Attendant Light Indicator Panel indicates Aft Lavatory

• Via MAU 1 from the forward or via MAU3 from the aft lavatory a
CAS warning message “LAV SMOKE” in conjunction with the Mas-
ter Warning indication will illuminate in the Cockpit.

Smoke detectors F1, F2, F3 and F4 are in the forward cargo compartment,
in zones 125.
Smoke detectors A1, A2 and A3 are in the aft cargo compartment, in zones
151.
If smoke is detected, the smoke detector sends an alarm signal to the appli-
cable MAU (Modular Avionics Unit) for processing.The MAU sends an arm
command to the FIRE EXTINGUISHER control panel, which illuminates,and
alerts the flight crew via MASTER WARNING, audible alarm and CAS (Crew
Alerting System) message.
The smoke detectors receive input power from dedicated CB (Circuit Break-

In case of a smoke detector failure, the related MAU shows the detector as
failed and ignores its input.
If only one smoke detector is available in one compartment, the MAU will au-
tomatically report a “CARGO FWD/AFT SMOKE” when one smoke detector
reports a fire alarm, information from the Bulit-in-test will be reported to the
CMC.
In the event that all smoke detectors in one cargo compartment have failed,
a “CRG FWD/AFT FIRE SYS FAIL” message will illuminate on the EICAS.In
this case the compartment might not be used.

Cargo fire detection system operation
There are two operating modes for the smoke detection subsystem, dual-
loop and single loop mode.
The two operating modes architecture (single and dual-loop) are used to
maximize the ability of the aircraft to dispatch and to minimize false alarms
due to faulted or contaminated smoke detectors.

2 Fire extinguisher bottles A and B are installed in the R/H rear wing-to-fu-
selage fairing. The bottles are interconnected through double check tee
valves. This permits a dual-shot function for one engine through the dis-
charge tubing and nozzles.
Firing of the bottles can only be controlled by cockpit command through the
fire handles.

The dual outlet fire extinguishing bottles contain HALON 1301 as the fire ex-
tinguishing agent at a quantity of 6.30 + 0.1/-0 lbs. pressurized to 800+25/-0
psig with nitrogen gas at 21°C.The operating temperature range is from -65
to +85 °C.They are installed in the wing to fuselage fairing with an access
door provided.
In case of bottle overpressure a relief valve provided on the bottle will open
allowing the fire extinguisher agent to flow to the ventilated compartment
(wing to fuselage fairing).A protective cap made of Aluminium alloy 2024-T4
is provided onto the relief valve outlet to avoid any damage to structures or
other component caused by discharged fire extinguisher agent.
There are two 0.23 inches (5.88 mm) diameter discharged holes at 180 de-
gree spaced at the protective cap to keep the pressure relief discharge port
available by avoiding ice or dirt blockage.
The two fire extinguisher bottles are cross-connected using double check-
Tee valve.
This T-check valve allows two fire extinguisher shots to each engine when
required from the two fire extinguisher bottles, and avoiding cross flow from
bottle to bottle.
Aluminium pipe is connected from the double check-Tee valve outlet to the
forward pylon and equipped with flexible couplings allowing relative move-
ment.In four different areas where the lowest point routing could not be
avoided, a drain valve was provided to eliminate any ice build up due to the
water condensation and subsequent extreme cold weather conditions.From
the forward-pylon to pylon-firewall the fire extinguisher tube is constructed
of Stainless Steel.Halon 1301 is a non-corrosive liquefied gas that does not
chemically react to metal including aluminium and Stainless steel.
A three branch fire extinguishing nozzles (with optional extension pipe) con-
nected to the distribution line interface at the pylon will be in both firezones;
Fan compartment and Engine Core Compartment.All nozzles and tubing in-
side engine nacelle constructed of Stainless Steel, which is fireproof and
corrosion resistant.

23659.Its operating temperature range is between -65°F to 200°F (-53°C to
93°C).For safety reason electrical protective cap should be kept fitted until
installation of the mating electrical connector.
In normal operation, the explosive cartridge is fired, precipitating a high pres-
sure shock wave in combination with high velocity cartridge fragments,
causing the pre-stressed disc to rupture and the agent to be released.

High rate/low rate discharge bottles
The two fire extinguishers are located in the mid-electronics bay. One high
rate discharge bottle is filled with 5.91kg HALON 1301, and one low rate dis-
charge bottle is filled with 10kg HALON 1301. They are equipped with dual
outlets to discharge suppression agent into either of the cargo compart-
ments.
The high rate gas flow is designed to extinguish the fire by filling the cargo
compartment with the required concentration of HALON 1301, while the low
rate gas flow afterwards prevents re-ignition.
Each FIREX includes a pressure switch that senses and reports extinguish-
er vessel pressurization, and two initiators for opening the agent outlets. The
initiators are electro-explosive devices (EEDs) that, when fired, rupture a
disk in the outlet of the FIREX. The FIREX pressure switch and EEDs inter-
face directly with the MAU and SPDA.

Cargo fire
If a cargo fire occurs, the cargo smoke warning will be displayed in the cock-
pit and the appropriate cargo compartment fire extinguisher button will illu-
minate. This automatically arms the high rate bottle. By pressing the
illuminated extinguisher button, the high rate bottle will discharge into the re-
lated cargo compartment and the low rate bottle will be armed.
After 1 minutes the low rate bottle will automatically discharge and distribute
its agent via the drier/metering unit into the cargo compartment. The low rate
bottle can be discharged manually before the 1 minutes have expired, by
pressing the extinguisher push button again.
The light in the push button will go off after the low rate bottle has been dis-
charged. Note that the cargo smoke indication will stay on as long as the fire
situation exists.

The fire extinguishing system can be used even without a cargo smoke
warning.
The high rate bottle is armed by pushing a cargo fire extinguisher button,
and is indicated by the red push button light and EICAS message. If the but-
ton is pushed again within the next 2 minutes, the high rate bottle will be dis-
charged. Depending on whether or not the aircraft is weight on wheels, the
sequence for the low rate bottle is automatic in flight, or manual on ground.
on ground the button has to be pushed twice to arm and to fire the low rate
bottle.
If the button is not pressed a second time within 2 minutes after arming, the
system will reset. When the fire test button is pressed the system will reset.

The Lavatory Auto Discharge Fire Extinguishing System consists of one fire
extinguishing bottle in the waste disposal receptacle of each lavatory.
The bottle is mounted with the discharging tubes extended into the lavatory
waste compartment, above the waste container.
The fire extinguisher bottle is charged with 120 grams Halon 1301 agent and
is a heat actuated device. The pressure gauge of the fire extinguisher bottle
is visible once the waste compartment door is open.
Figure 1: The Lavatory Auto Discharge bottle location
If fire occurs inside the waste disposal the Auto Discharge Fire Extinguishing
bottle will be automatically discharged. The tip at the end of each discharge
tube will melt at 78º C (172º F) and cause the bottle to fully discharge into
the waste compartment and knockdown the fire in the waste disposal. Dis-
charge indication can be checked through this pressure gauge.
