A. Test
4. Fault IsolationNOTE: The overheat detection threshold is between 117 and 131 degrees Celsius.
An overheat detection by one loop can occur in these conditions:
(1) Do the BITE test of the EBAS AMM 36-11-00-740-802. An overheat detection by one loop can occur in these conditions:
- High Outside Air Temperature (OAT)
- ECS supplied with hot bleed air.
In these conditions, the ambient air around the sensing elements can increase to the detection threshold but there is not an air leak.
If there is an air leak, there will be an AIR L(R) WING LEAK warning on the ECAM.
No other maintenance action is necessary if: - The overheat detection was by one loop only with high OAT and ECS supplied with hot bleed air.
- The result of the EBAS BITE test is TEST OK.
