Subtask 28-21-00-941-072-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Safety Precautions
   (1) As necessary, use the applicable SAFETY BARRIERS, specified by the operator's instructions and your local regulations.
Subtask 28-21-00-860-055-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
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.
   (1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
(Ref. AMM TASK 24-41-00-861-002).
   (2) Do the EIS start procedure (ECAM only) (Ref. AMM TASK 31-60-00-860-001), then:
  • on the ECAM control panel (CP), push (in) the FUEL push icon switch
  • make sure that the FUEL page is shown on the ECAM lower Display Unit (DU).
   (3) Refuel (Ref. AMM TASK 12-11-28-650-003), defuel (Ref. AMM TASK 28-25-00-650-001) or transfer fuel (Ref. AMM TASK 28-25-00-869-001) as necessary until:
  • the center tank contains a minimum of 500 kg (1102 lb) and a maximum of 4800 kg (10582 lb)
  • the left wing and the right wing tank inner-cells contain a minimum of 750 kg (1653 lb).
4. Procedure
WARNING: WHEN YOU OPERATE THE FUEL PUMPS DURING A MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE, A MAINTENANCE PERSON MUST BE IN THE COCKPIT. THIS PERSON MUST STOP THE PUMPS WHEN THE LOW PRESSURE FAULT LIGHT(S) (ON PANEL 40VU) COME ON, TO PREVENT OPERATION OF THE PUMPS(S) WITHOUT FUEL ('DRY RUNNING'). OPERATION OF THE PUMPS WITHOUT FUEL CAN CAUSE A FIRE.

NOTE: This test is for 84QM. For 85QM use the indications in parenthesis.
ACTION
RESULT
1.On refuel/defuel control-panel 800VU:
  • Make sure that the REFUEL VALVES switches are in the NORM position
  • Put the MODE SELECT switch to the OFF position.

CAUTION: BEFORE YOU CLOSE THE CROSSFEED VALVE, MAKE SURE THAT THE FUEL PUMP(S) IS(ARE) OFF. THIS WILL PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE CROSSFEED VALVE.
2.On fuel panel 40VU:
  • Release (out) the X FEED pushbutton switch.
On fuel panel 40VU:
  • The ON light goes off
  • The OPEN light goes off.

On the ECAM lower DU:
  • The X FEED valve shows closed (green cross-line).
3.On fuel panel 40VU:
  • Push (in) the L (R) TK PUMPS 1 and 2 pushbutton switches.
On fuel panel 40VU:
  • The L (R) TK PUMPS 1 and 2 pushbutton switches FAULT lights come on momentarily
  • The L (R) TK PUMPS 1 and 2 pushbutton switches OFF lights go off.


On the ECAM lower DU:
  • The left (right) pump display shows pumps is (are) on (green in-line).


After 10 mins:
  • The fuel quantities in the left (right) wing tank and the center tank stay the same

    or

  • If the fuel quantity in the center tank increases (with a corresponding decrease of the fuel in the left (right) wing tank), the check valve in the left (right) fuel canister has failed open.
4.On fuel panel 40VU:
  • Release (out) the L (R) TK PUMPS 1 and 2 pushbutton switches.
On fuel panel 40VU:
