FUEL LEVEL SENSING - opening of the Innercell Transfer Valves simultaneously in
both wing tanks when exposed to air the first time.

exposed to air for more than 30s.
The aircraft is equipped with two multi-channel Fuel Level Sensing

TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The fuel temperature sensor in the wing tank inner cell sends a
high fuel signal temperature signal 52.5 C (126.5 F).
The fuel temperature sensor in the wing tank outer cell sends a
high fuel signal temperature signal 55 C (131.0 F).
When the IDG shut-off sensor is dry (280 Kg) the FLSCU signals
the fuel return valve to close. This stops the fuel recirculation
system, to prevent an increase in the amount of unusable fuel in
the wing-tank. The IDG shut-off sensors stop the IDG cooling
when the fuel quantity is less than 280 Kg (616lbs).

General
The fuel tank flammability is possible only if the three elements get
together: fuel vapor, ignition source and oxygen.
To reduce the fuel tank flammability, the fuel tank inerting system
reduces the rate of oxygen in the center tank only.
The CSAS takes hot air from the bleed air system and cools down
the air
to a level compatible with the IGGS sub-system.
The CSAS is composed of:
- The Conditioned service air system Controller Unit (CCU),
which performs the system control and health monitoring
BITE and interfaces with the FWS and CFDS.
- A CSAS isolation valve, which protects the system in case of
low pressure, over pressure or over temperature,
- A heat exchanger to cool down the air.

The system is installed on the left hand side of the aircraft belly
fairing. The bleed air is pulled from the High Pressure Ground
Connector (HPGC) tube. In normal operation, the CSAS isolation
valve is open to let the air go through the ozone converter. After
the Ozone converter, the air temperature is decreased by the
CSAS heat exchanger. The output of the heat exchanger is
connected to the IGGS.

Normal Operation.
The bleed air comes from the CSAS and it is filtered by the D-
ULPA filter to keep the ASM inlet clean, without hydrocarbons and
dust. Downstream of the D-ULPA filter, one temperature sensor
and one pressure sensor send air parameters to the ICU. The
ASM, which is the core of the IGGS, removes oxygen and sends
NEA to the fuel center tank. The OEA is sent overboard through
an outlet on the HPGC door. Downstream of the ASM, an oxygen
sensor measures the oxygen rate to prevent a high oxygen
concentration in the center tank. The oxygen sensor has a
pressure sensing capability when it is energized and thus it
prevents over-pressure in the center tank.

pressurized fuel to the Integrated Drive Generator (IDG) oil cooler.
The high pressure gear stage receives the fuel from the Main
Head Exchanger (MHX), and supplies high pressure fuel to the
Main Fuel Filter (MFF). If an overpressure occurs in the high

start.
Both EEC units are fully capable of operating the engine systems,
but only one EEC unit will operate them at a time.
This EEC unit is called the “channel in control” or “active channel”.
The other EEC unit is the “standby” or “inactive” channel.
The position feedback from the engine air valves, fuel metering
valve, and actuators allows the “channel in control” to close the
loop by verifying that the correct position was reached.

Purpose
The total air temperature (T12) sensor measures the total air
temperature at the engine inlet. T12 sensor information is sent
to the Electronic Engine Control (EEC) units and used in the
engine comtrol algorithms for engine power management.

The houseing for the P12 sensor is placed in the inlet flow path
and the T12 sensor is mounted there with bolts.
The T12 sensor is connected to the Electronic Engine Control
(EEC) units through two electrical connectors (one for channel
A and one for channel B).
Operation
The T12 sensor measures the total air temperature at the engine
inlet by means of two sensing elements.
The temperature expands the sensing material, modifying its
resistance. The signal passing through the material is thus also
modified.
The T12 sensor sends two independent signals: one signal to

Air flow control includes variable bleed valves, variable stator
vanes, transient bleed valve and the start bleed.
The purpose of the airflow control system is to increase stall
margin and prevent compressor surge at off-design and transient
speeds.
The active clearance control cools the high and low pressure
turbine case to accomplish minimum tip clearance between the
case and the turbine blades. This will increase efficiency and
lower fuel consumption.
The start bleed/ booster anti ice valve is a combined valve taking
7th stage air from the HP compressor.
For start bleed the 7th air will be vented through a “pepper pot”
into the core area under the cowlings. It will unload the HP
compressor during start.
For Booster Anti Ice the BAI will use the 7th stage air to heat the
splitter between by-pass air and air into the low pressure (booster)
compressor.

The Start Bleed/Booster Anti Ice Valve (SB/BAIV) has one inlet
and two outlets. Inside the unit there is at mechanism which direct
the 7 stage air to the two outlets depending of the function. One
will go to the flow splitter for anti-ice of the Booster function and
the other will go to the core compartment for start bleed function.
The valve as four positions, the fail safe position is fully open.
For the start bleed function the valve will guide air through
the “Pepper pot device” into the core area to increase start
performance. For start bleed the flow can be 50 or 100%
open.
Booster anti ice is controlled by the EEC and the valve can
be fully open or closed. The 7th stage air is routed through
several ducts to the flow splitter and the air is then
evacuated into the outer surface through notches.

The active clearance control for the High Pressure and Low

Fan air is drawn from a duct and is split up into two parts to be
metered and modulated through two butterfly valves.
The valves are separate but identical, operated by fuel muscle

The Fuel Flow Meter (FFM) is installed in line between the Fuel
Metering Unit (FMU) discharge and the Split Control Unit/Servo
Valve Assembly (SCU/SVA). The FFM is a passive, time-based
pulse output transmitter and it is installed on the engine core at the
5 o'clock position.
It measures the flow rate of metered fuel supplied to the combustor
and sends it to the EECs.
The fuel used value is computed by the EIU from the fuel flow
value sent by the EECs. For each engine it is computed from the
engine start to the engine shutdown.
The FWC monitors both engine Fuel Flow (FF) and trigger the alert

The TCU sends stow position to the EEC and the EIU, the DCU is
de-energized and the EEC energizes and opens the ICU valve.
The ICU pressurizes the stow side (rod end) of the actuators.
The EEC will limit the thrust level to forward idle until the thrust
reversers are confirmed stowed and locked.
At the end of retraction the ETL looking hook will lock the
translating sleeves by the roller of the left sleeve.
The two primary looks inside the upper actuators will look when
