Fuel System Preservation (Menu Mode) [CFML]


TASK 73-29-00-710-803-A
Fuel System Preservation (Menu Mode)


WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT ALL ENGINE OPERATING AREAS ARE AS CLEAN AS POSSIBLE. ALL RAMPS, TAXIWAYS, RUNWAYS AND OTHER OPERATING AREAS MUST BE VERY CLEAN TO PREVENT BAD DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE, AIRCRAFT AND PERSONS IN THE AREA.
WARNING: DO NOT TRY TO STOP THE FAN FROM TURNING BY HAND. THIS CAN CAUSE INJURY TO THE PERSONS AND DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
WARNING: DO NOT DO THE FUEL SYSTEM PRESERVATION IN A HANGAR OR IN A CLOSED AREA. A LARGE AMOUNT OF HIGHLY FLAMMABLE FUEL VAPORS COME OUT FROM THE ENGINE DURING THIS PROCEDURE AND THERE IS A RISK OF FIRE.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE TRAVEL RANGES OF THE FLIGHT CONTROLS SURFACES ARE CLEAR. MOVEMENT OF FLIGHT CONTROLS CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION: - SEE THE APPLICABLE FIGURE FOR WIND LIMIT RESTRICTIONS WHEN THE ENGINE OPERATES.
  • NATURAL WINDS AND IRREGULAR FORCES FROM SUDDEN GUSTS INCREASE THE DANGEROUS AREA.
  • DO NOT GO ABOVE OPEN COWLING LIMITATIONS WHEN YOU DO THE TESTS.
  • THE OPERATOR MUST FULLY KNOW ALL THE OPERATING LIMITS AND PROCEDURES BEFORE THE ENGINE OPERATES.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS NO HYDRAULIC GROUND POWER SUPPLY CONNECTED TO THE AIRCRAFT WHEN YOU DO THIS PROCEDURE. IF A HYDRAULIC GROUND POWER SUPPLY IS CONNECTED, THERE IS A RISK OF DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE PUMPS.
ZONE: 400
1. Reason for the Job
The menu mode fuel system preservation function moves the fuel system valves as preservation fluid is added to the engine fuel system as part of the process for preparing the engine for storage. Preservation fluid is supplied to the fuel system inlet instead of fuel. The engine is motored and the master lever is moved to ON for the preservation oil to flow through the fuel system. The fuel system valves are then cycled to coat the servo valves with preservation fluid. The function ends when the master lever is moved to OFF.

I. Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
   (1) On the ENG section of maintenance panel 50VU:
  • Release the FADEC GND PWR 1(2) pushbutton switch (the ON legend comes on).
   (2) After the FADEC is energized, wait ten seconds before you start the test. If you do not wait ten seconds, the interactive mode stops the EEC self-test and this can cause unwanted faults.
   (3) On the left or right Multipurpose Control and Display Unit (MCDU), get the SYSTEM REPORT/TEST/ENG page (Ref. AMM TASK 31-32-00-860-012).
   (4) On the AIR COND panel 30VU:
     (a) Make sure that the APU BLEED pushbutton switch is released (ON legend off).
     (b) Install a WARNING NOTICE(S) to tell the persons not to use it.
   (5) Put a WARNING NOTICE(S) on the HP ground connector to tell the persons not to pressurize the pneumatic system.
   (6) On the left or right MCDU, get the SYSTEM REPORT/TEST ENG MENU PAGE.
   (7) Make sure that the landing gear system is not simulated in the flight configuration.
   (8) Supply the aircraft pneumatic system from the HP Ground Power Unit (GPU) or the APU (Ref. AMM TASK 36-12-00-860-805) and (Ref. AMM TASK 36-12-00-860-806).
4. Procedure
Subtask 73-29-00-710-072-A
A. General
NOTE: Preservation fluid is supplied to the fuel system inlet instead of fuel. The engine is motored and the Master Lever is moved to ON for the preservation fluid to begin flowing through the fuel system. A period of steady flow occurs first so that fluid can fill the system. Then the fuel system valves are cycled to coat the servo valves with preservation fluid. The function ends when the Master Lever is returned to OFF. Ignitor power is disabled during this function.
   (1) Do the menu mode fuel system preservation function.
NOTE: During the test, obey the instructions shown on the Multipurpose Control and Display Unit (MCDU).
NOTE: The Menu Mode Fuel System Preservation function is expected to take approximately 5 minutes to complete.
NOTE: The EEC will not enter the menu mode (interactive mode) after an enquire command from the CFDS (Centralized Fault Display System) when any of the following conditions are set:
  • N2 more than ten percent or invalid
  • Rotary selector is set on: CRANK or IGN/START or invalid.
  • Manual Start Button set on: ON or invalid
  • TLA (Throttle Lever Angle) not at idle or invalid
  • Aircraft in the air
  • MASTER lever ON or invalid
  • BITE command code input label invalid.
NOTE: The EEC will abort a running test or special function when any of the following conditions becomes set:
  • N2 more than 45 percent or invalid
  • Engine state not starting or off
  • Engine not in default, dry motor, or wet motor start state
  • EGT more than 250 deg.C (482.00 deg.F) or invalid
  • TLA (Throttle Lever Angle) not at idle or invalid
  • Aircraft in the air
  • 115 V power available to igniters
  • N2 drops below 20 percent after going above 20 percent
  • N2 more than 20 percent for two minutes during crank or start phase
  • You enter in the interactive mode of the other channel.
ACTION
RESULT
1.On the Menu Mode main menu, push the key adjacent to SPECIAL FUNCTIONS (2R).
The SPECIAL FUNCTIONS menu is shown (SCREEN 2).
2.On the SPECIAL FUNCTIONS page (Reference SCREEN 2), select the key adjacent to FUEL SYSTEM PREP (4L).
The FUEL SYSTEM PRESERVATION function start screen is displayed (SCREEN 3).
3.Initiate the function by selecting the settings displayed on SCREEN 3:
  • Set the Start Switch to CRANK.
  • Set the Manual Start button to ON.
  • Set the Master Lever to ON.
  • Press the key adjacent to START THE TEST (5R) to begin the FUEL SYSTEM PRESERVATION function.
The FUEL SYSTEM PRESERVATION SEQUENCE IN PROGRESS screen is displayed (SCREEN 4).



Just after setting the Master Lever ON during the test, select the "FUEL" SD page and make sure that the LP valve remain closed.
If the LP valve is indicated open, pull the Master Lever back to off otherwise a fuel leak will occur on the engine.

NOTE: Once the engine core speed exceeds motoring speed (20%), the ECC slews fuel system valves to multiple positions to circulate preservation fluid. The function takes approximately two minutes to complete.

NOTE: If the RETURN key (6L) is selected while the test is in process, or if one of the following conditions occurs, the FUEL SYSTEM PRESERVATION function is aborted and the FUNCTION TERMINATED screen is displayed (SCREEN 6):
  • Start Switch, Manual Start button or Master Lever are changed from ACTION 3.
  • Core speed (N2) is above 55%.
  • Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) > 250°C or EGT signals invalid.
  • Throttle Lever Angle (TLA) not at idle or TLA signals invalid.
  • Ignitor power is available.
  • N2 falls below 20% after being above 20%.
  • N2 does not exceed 20% within two minutes after function is initiated.
  • FADEC channel switch requested by standby channel.
  • Aircraft indicates in air.
    After valve cycling is completed, the PROCEDURE COMPLETE screen is displayed (SCREEN 5).
4.Once the PROCEDURE COMPLETE screen is displayed, restore the cockpit setting as indicated on SCREEN 5:
  • Set the Master Lever to OFF.
  • Set the Manual Start button to OFF.
  • Set the Start switch to NORM.
  • Press the key adjacent to RETURN (6L) to return to the SPECIAL FUNCTIONS menu.
    If the FUNCTION TERMINATED screen is displayed, restore the cockpit settings as indicated on SCREEN 6:
  • Set the Master Lever to OFF.
  • Set the Manual Start button to OFF.
  • Set the Start switch to NORM.
  • Press the key adjacent to RETURN (6L) to return to the SPECIAL FUNCTIONS menu.
The SPECIAL FUNCTIONS menu is shown (SCREEN 2).
