4. Procedure
Subtask 49-00-00-710-060-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. APU Performance Test
   (1) Read-out the LAST LEG REPORT of the ECB and make sure that there is no fault available.
   (2) Do the self test of the ECB (Ref. AMM TASK 49-00-00-710-009). Make sure that no maintenance message is shown.
   (3) Start and operate the APU (Ref. AMM TASK 49-00-00-710-010).
   (4) On the APU system page of the lower ECAM display unit, read the Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) values under the subsequent conditions:
  • EGT in Ready to Load (RTL) mode,
  • EGT in Main Engine Start (MES) mode,
NOTE: The aircraft configuration for
.RTL mode:
  • APU operates at more than 95% speed,
.MES mode:
  • the APU BLEED pushbutton switch is in ON position,
  • one engine dry motoring.
   (5) Read-out the Aircraft Integrated Data System (AIDS) data for the subsequent ALPHA CALL UPs in the TABLE A (Ref. AMM TASK 31-36-00-740-008).
NOTE: When you enter the ADW ALPHA CODE the APU operating status is shown in binary codes.
ADW ALPHA CODE for SAGEM FDIMU = ADW1
ADW ALPHA CODE for TELEDYNE FDIMU = ADW1ALL1

B. APU Performance Parameters
   (1) APU Performance Parameter Table
NOTE: The performance parameter values and the related ranges are given for information only because there can be a difference between them and those found during APU operation. It is possible for the APU to continue to operate correctly with one or more values different from those given in the table.

For the Table 3
F Correction for LCIT During MES ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
NOTE: (1) Bleed Air Pressure (PT) and Bleed Air Flow (WB) are meaningless parameters for the RTL mode.
(2) Correct Exhaust Gas Temperature (APU) (EGTA) for Load Compressor Inlet (LCIT) and GLA.
(3) Shown are the deteriated and nominal values. Corrections are necessary for different LCIT and Barometric pressure.
(4) Shown are the deteriated and nominal values. Corrections are necessary for different LCIT, Barometric pressure and GLA.
   (2) APU Performance Correction Formulas
The values in the APU Performance Parameters (Table A) are shown for specific inlet conditions and no generator loading. Because it is unlikely that an APU will meet the exact conditions in the table A, the subsequent correction formulas must be used.
     (a) RTL EGTA Correction Formula
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
! EGTA (Table A) = EGTA + EGT(GLA) + EGT(LCIT) !
! (Table A Value = ECAM Value + Value T2 + Value T1) !

Subtask 49-00-00-860-138-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
   (1) Stop the APU (Ref. AMM TASK 49-00-00-860-009).
   (2) Do the EIS stop procedure
(Ref. AMM TASK 31-60-00-860-002).
   (3) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits
(Ref. AMM TASK 24-41-00-862-002).
