Functional Test of the Rain Repellent System (with the Air Conditioning System)


TASK 30-45-00-720-002-B
Functional Test of the Rain Repellent System (with the Air Conditioning System)


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.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE CIRCUIT BREAKERS RELATED TO THE WEATHER RADAR ARE OPENED, SAFETIED AND TAGGED.
CAUTION: DO NOT APPLY THE RAIN REPELLENT FLUID ON A DRY SURFACE.
CAUTION: REMOVE THE RAIN REPELLENT FLUID FROM THE WINDSHIELD AND FROM ALL THE OTHER SURFACES IT TOUCHES WITH SOAP AND WATER. DO THIS EACH TIME YOU APPLY THE RAIN REPELLENT FLUID.
1. Reason for the Job
NOTE: There is an alternative method for this procedure. This task gives one of the methods. For the other method, refer to the other task in this page block.
NOTE: Two persons are necessary to do this task. One person does the rain repellent test and the other person cleans the windshield with water during the test.

  • The compressed air goes out through the CAPT and the F/O nozzles:
ACTION
RESULT
1.On the WIPER section of panel 21VU (22VU):
  • Push and release the CAPT (F/O) RAIN RPLNT pushbutton switch.
  • Make sure that the rain repellent fluid flows through the CAPT (F/O) nozzle (between 0.1 and 1 second).
2.Open circuit breaker 1DB1 (1DB2).

3.On the WIPER section of panel 21VU (22VU):
  • Push and release the CAPT (F/O) RAIN RPLNT pushbutton switch.
  • Make sure that the rain repellent fluid does not flow through the nozzles.
4.Close circuit breaker 1DB1 (1DB2).

5.On the WIPER section of panel 21VU (22VU):
  • Push and release the CAPT (F/O) RAIN RPLNT pushbutton switch.
  • Make sure that the rain repellent fluid flows through the CAPT (F/O) nozzle (between 0.1 and 1 second).
  • Make sure that the compressed air removes the remaining fluid from the system.
  • Make sure that the compressed air goes out through the CAPT and the F/O nozzles.
6.Close circuit breakers 2KS1, 2KS2, 4KS1 and 4KS2.

7.On the WIPER section of panel 21VU (22VU):
  • Push and release the CAPT (F/O) RAIN RPLNT pushbutton switch.
  • The rain repellent fluid does not flow through the nozzles.
  • Only the compressed air goes out through the CAPT and the F/O nozzles.
   (2) Clean the windshield with water to remove the remaining rain repellent fluid.
   (3) After you complete the functional test of the rain repellent system, make sure that:
  • The area around the windshield is clear.
  • The windshield is clean and clear of all items.
5. Close-up
Subtask 30-45-00-618-051-A
A. Stop the Pressurization with the Air Conditioning System
   (1) In the cockpit, on AIR COND panel 30VU:
     (a) Push the PACK 1(2) pushbutton switch to stop the air supply in the rain repellent system.
   (2) Stop the pre-conditioning (Ref. AMM TASK 12-33-21-618-001).
Subtask 30-45-00-865-087-A
WARNING: CLOSE THE CIRCUIT-BREAKER 2KS1 OR 2KS2 BEFORE YOU CLOSE THE PROBE HEATER CIRCUIT-BREAKERS 3DA1(2,3), 4DA1(2,3) AND 5DA1(2,3). IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS SEQUENCE:
  • THIS PROBES WILL BECOME TOO HOT.
  • THIS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT AND INJURY TO MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL.
