Operational Test of Safety Valve Position Indication

TASK 21-31-00-710-006-A
Operational Test of Safety Valve Position Indication

WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT ALL THE CIRCUITS IN MAINTENANCE ARE ISOLATED BEFORE YOU SUPPLY ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE AIRCRAFT. UNWANTED ELECTRICAL POWER CAN BE DANGEROUS.

NOTE: For the test procedure two persons are required. One person must operate the safety valve, the other person must monitor the ECAM upper and lower display units and the panels 130VU and 132VU in the cockpit.

Subtask 21-31-00-860-061-A

C. Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
(1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
(Ref. AMM TASK 24-41-00-861-002).
(2) Do the EIS start procedure (upper ECAM DU and lower ECAM DU only)
(Ref. AMM TASK 31-60-00-860-001).
(3) Make sure that the PRESS page is shown on the ECAM lower display unit.

4. Procedure
Subtask 21-31-00-710-056-A

A. Operational Test of the Safety Valve Position Indication

NOTE: The test procedure is the same for the safety valves 6HL and 7HL.

ACTION	RESULT
1.On one of the safety valves:	On the ECAM lower display unit:
hold the safety valve with both hands on the left and on the right side. Push the movable diaphragm with your fingers against the spring force to operate the position switch and hold it in that position for at least 1 minute.	the white SAFETY indication changes to amber and the valve symbol opens and changes to amber.
	On the panels 130VU and 132VU: the amber light in the two MASTER CAUTION pushbutton switches come on. the single audio warning is heard.
	On the ECAM upper display unit:
	the warning message CAB PR SAFETY VALVE OPEN comes on.

release the diaphragm.	On the ECAM lower display unit:
	the open valve symbol closes and changes to green and the amber SAFETY indication changes to white.
	On the panels 130VU and 132VU:
	the amber light in the two MASTER CAUTION pushbutton switches go off.
	On the ECAM upper display unit:
	the warning message CAB PR SAFETY VALVE OPEN goes off.

NOTE: Do this test again for the other safety valve.

5. Close-up
Subtask 21-31-00-860-062-A

A. Do the EIS stop procedure
(Ref. AMM TASK 31-60-00-860-002).

Subtask 21-31-00-410-050-A

B. Close Access
(1) Make sure that the work area is clean and clear of tools and other items.
(2) Close the access to the safety valves.

Subtask 21-31-00-862-055-A

C. De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits
(Ref. AMM TASK 24-41-00-862-002).
