TASK 34-11-00-720-001-A
Functional Test of the Air Data Module (ADM)


CAUTION: TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO INSTRUMENTS, OBEY THESE PRECAUTIONS WHEN YOU DO THE TEST:
  • THE PRESSURES SET MUST NOT BE MORE THAN 1050 hPa (31 in Hg) OR LESS THAN 115 hPa (3.39 in Hg)
  • CHANGES IN STATIC AND TOTAL PRESSURES MUST NOT BE MORE THAN 6000 FEET/MINUTE
  • DO NOT SUDDENLY OPEN LINES TO AMBIENT AIR WHILE THE PRESSURE GENERATOR IS CONNECTED.
CAUTION: THE TOTAL PRESSURE IN THE PITOT SYSTEM MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN THE STATIC PRESSURE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE PITOT AND THE STATIC PRESSURE CIRCUITS MUST NEVER BE MORE THAN 368 hPa (10.86 in Hg).

D. Install the ground pressure generator and the Aeronautical Radio Incorporated (ARINC) reader.
   (1) Remove the slip-on covers from the static probes and the pitot probes.
   (2) Connect the static port of the ALT34100001 PITOT AND STATIC TEST SET to the static probes and/or the total probes on which you do the test.
     (a) The static probes with the ADAPTER STATIC PROBE:
       1 For the CAPT circuit (Air Data/Inertial Reference Unit 1 (ADIRU 1)) and the F/O circuit (ADIRU 2):
  • 7DA1 zone 127 Station (STA) 8750 for the left static-pressure ADM (19FP5)
  • 7DA2 zone 127 STA 8700 for the left static-pressure ADM (19FP7).
And
  • 8DA1 zone 128 STA 9300 for the right static-pressure ADM (19FP4)
  • 8DA2 zone 128 STA 9350 for the right static-pressure ADM (19FP6).
     (b) The static probes with the ADAPTER STATIC PROBE:
       1 For the standby circuit (ADIRU 3):
  • 7DA3 zone 121 STA 4250 for the static pressure ADM (19FP8), or
  • 8DA3 zone 122 STA 4250 for the static pressure ADM (19FP8).
     (c) The pitot probes with the ADAPTER PITOT PROBE:
       1 For the CAPT circuit (ADIRU 1):
         a 9DA1 zone 125 STA 5500 for the total pressure ADM (19FP1).
       2 For the F/O circuit (ADIRU 2):
         a 9DA2 zone 126 STA 5500 for the total pressure ADM (19FP2).
       3 For the standby circuit (ADIRU 3):
         a 9DA3 zone 125 STA 5500 for the total pressure ADM (19FP3).
   (3) Seal the standby probes:
CAUTION: WHEN YOU SEAL THE DRAIN HOLE IN THE PITOT PROBE, DO NOT SEAL THE HOLE DIRECTLY WITH THE COLORED ADHESIVE TAPE. ALWAYS PUT A PIECE OF PLASTIC ON THE HOLE FIRST AND USE THE COLORED ADHESIVE TAPE TO ATTACH THE PLASTIC. IF YOU SEAL THE DRAIN HOLE DIRECTLY WITH THE ADHESIVE TAPE, THERE IS A RISK THAT SOME OF THE ADHESIVE WILL STAY ON THE HOLE AND COLLECT PARTICLES. THIS CAN SUBSEQUENTLY CAUSE BLOCKAGE OF THE HOLE AND THUS INCORRECT OPERATION OF THE PROBE.
     (a) Seal the drain holes of the pitot probes with a piece of plastic and the TAPE - ADHESIVE of very bright color.
     (b) Seal the opposite static probe of the standby ADM with the 98D10103500001 COVER-STATIC PROBE.
   (4) Start the ground pressure generator.
   (5) On relay plate 187VU, connect the ARINC READER to:
  • Connector 199VC (pins GG/HH) for the CAPT circuit (ADIRU 1)
  • Connector 199VC (pins <Y/<Z) for the standby circuit (ADIRU 3).
   (6) On relay plate 188VU, connect the ARINC READER to:
  • Connector 198VC (pins GG/HH) for the F/O circuit (ADIRU 2).
   (7) Start the ARINC READER.

Subtask 34-11-00-720-050-A
A. Functional Test of the ADM
ACTION
RESULT
1.On the ground pressure generator, set a static pressure as given in the table below. The impacted pressure must stay at 0 (hPa or Kts).
NOTE: You can also set an other pressure value. The tolerance for the values read on the ARINC reader is the same as these indicated in the table below.
On the ARINC reader, compare the pressure values of the static and total ADM read on the following labels :
ADIRU 1
  • Label 242 (ADM 19FP1)
  • Label 176 (ADM 19FP5)
  • Label 177 (ADM 19FP4)
    ADIRU 2
  • Label 242 (ADM 19FP2)
  • Label 176 (ADM 19FP7)
  • Label 177 (ADM 19FP6)
    ADIRU 3
  • Label 242 (ADM 19FP3)
  • Label 245 (ADM 19FP8)
2.On the ground pressure generator, slowly decrease the pressure.
The rate of descent must not be more than 6000 ft/mn.
3.Stop the ground pressure generator.
The test procedure stops.
