Falcon 2000 Systems Test
Questions and Answers All
Correct
What happens to the battery switch if you let the battery drop too low? - Answer- Battery
switch turns off
What voltage of the battery automatically turns off the battery switch? - Answer- 12 volts
With battery plugged in, what can you use/do on the airplane? - Answer- Refuel
Use lighting:
- baggage comp light
- aft and fwd serv comp lights
- nose cone light
Discharge fire extinguishers (engine and APU)
What does a GEN 1 or GEN 2 light mean when illuminated? - Answer- Low volts <25 or
generator contacor open
How are the circuit breakers arranged? - Answer- Horizontally by bus, vertically by
system
What does the voltmeter read? Ammeter? - Answer- Voltmeter: Highest voltage on the
BUS
Ammeter: selected power source
What prevents the cabin altitude from increasing above 14,500 ft? - Answer- Cabin
altitude limiting valve on the outflow valve
If normal pressurization (auto) is inop, how can the airplane be pressurized? - Answer-
Manual - with the manual control knob next to the pressurization controller
Condition Emergency switch - and controlling the temp knobs on the overhead - hot
valves only and cold valves fully closed
What do the PAX and CREW air conditioning switches do? - Answer- Auto:
automatically controls h/c valves
, Off: closes the h/c valves
What do the crew & pax AC mode switches on the overhead bleed air panel do? -
Answer- Auto: activates automatic cabin/crew computers
Remote: passenger control
Manual: manual computer activated (direct control of h/c valves)
What do the PAX or CREW lights on the overhead panel mean? - Answer- Failure of:
1. Cabin/pax computer
2. Manual computers processor
3. Valve or sensor
Is there anything else that will cause the engine bleed valves to close? - Answer-
Engine start
APU switch to on/override
APU bleed valve fault
What does the con'd EMERG switch do and when else would you use it? - Answer-
Turns ECU OFF, also used for AC smoke
Disables automatic computers and powers manual valve control
Closes the cold valves, opens hot to wherever the rheostat is positioned
What is the purpose of the recirculation valve? - Answer- Takes conditioned air from the
cabin and reuses it through the ECU and makes it more efficient.
AFT COMP OVH'T illuminates when temp reaches? What is possibly the source of the
overheat? - Answer- 90 deg C
Bleed air leak
If you determine bleed air leak is from #2 system, what will you lose when you isolate it?
- Answer- Crew AC
Wings AI
Bleed air from ECU inlet
Ability to cross bleed start if needed
If you did lose #2 bleed air b/c of leak, how can the crew get air conditioned? - Answer-
Manual air conditioning interconnect valve
Where is the manual air conditioning interconnect valve? - Answer- Main cabin on the
right side between the emergency exit and lavatory
What does a NOSE CONE OVHT caution light on mean? - Answer- Nose cone is above
70 deg C - avionics overheating
