AIR CONDITIONING MENU Abnormal Operation(A) 4/21

AIR CONDITIONING MENU Abnormal Operation(A) 5/21

On the E/WD, read the title of the failure.

AIR CONDITIONING MENU Abnormal Operation(A) 6/21

Before you begin, notice that the pack flow control valve
has closed. This occurred automatically when the
overheat was detected to protect the pack from damage.
The valve color indication is amber because the valve
position disagrees with the switch position.
The compressor outlet temperature is also amber because
the temperature limit has been exceeded.

AIR CONDITIONING MENU Abnormal Operation(A) 7/21

Notice also that since the pack valve has closed the
supply line from the pack to the mixer unit has turned
amber. This happens because there is no air flow from
the pack to the mixing unit.

The first part, a condition line, is not an action but
analysis. We are to determine if the pack overheat is
out.

AIR CONDITIONING MENU Abnormal Operation(A) 15/21

The fault light in the switch is extinguished, and the
compressor outlet temperature indication is green; so
we can conclude that the overheat is out.
