Summary
Introduction
This technical manual provides operating instructions for the Air Data Test System compatible with the requirements of first line servicing.
Scope This technical manual contains a brief description, operation and testing procedures for the user of this equipment.
Safety
The manufacturer has designed this equipment to be safe when operated using the procedures detailed in this manual.
Do not use this equipment for any other purpose than that stated.
This publication contains operating and safety instructions that must be followed to make sure of safe operation and to maintain the equipment in a safe condition.
The safety instructions are either warnings or cautions issued to protect the user and the equipment from injury or damage.
Use qualified* technicians and good engineering practice for all procedures in this publication.
Pressure
Do not apply pressure greater the maximum safe working pressure to the equipment.
Toxic Materials
There are no known toxic materials used in this equipment.
Maintenance
The equipment must be maintained using the manufacturer’s procedures and should be carried out by authorised service agents or the manufacturer’s service departments
Technical Advice
For technical advice contact the manufacturer or subsidiary.
* A qualified technician must have the necessary technical knowledge, documentation, special test equipment and tools to carry out the required work on this equipment.
There are two versions of the ADTS 405, a 19", 6U high (10½”) rack-mounted unit and a flight line unit.
The ADTS 405 is a rack-mounted system and, with external pressure and vacuum supplies connected, provides measurement and control for leak checks, calibration accuracy checks and functional tests of air data instruments, components and systems. The ADTS 405F is a self-contained flight-line air data test system providing complete pressure and vacuum measuring and control for on-aircraft sense and leak testing, calibration accuracy checks and functional tests of air data instruments, components and systems. The unit comprises an electronics rack and pump rack enclosed in a high density, polyethylene case.
The ADTS 405 displays and operates in either units of pressure measurement or aeronautical units. In the control mode, the rate that the pressures change towards new set-points can be controlled in true aeronautical rate units.
There are two independent pneumatic channels connect to the aircraft or instrument systems, one for static and one for pitot.
They can be operated as measure only channels with leak testing facility or each can be control channels producing true pressure conditions for altitude and airspeed.
To protect sensitive instruments and equipment a `ground' facility automatically and safely controls both channels to atmospheric pressure at the previously entered rates of change and then informs the operator when both channels are safely at `ground'. The operator interface is either an ATEX certified hand terminal connected to the front panel or the key pad and display on the front panel.
Both provide information and control selections for the user through the keys and display.
The unit can also be controlled remotely using the IEEE 488 communications interface.
The front panel contains the operate switch and a mimic panel with LED indicators showing the operation of the solenoid-operated pneumatic valves.
The pump rack, on the ADTS 405F, produces pressure and vacuum supplies for the electronics rack and for external services.
Located on the front panel, the external connectors provide for external pressure and vacuum supplies (EXT PRESSURE and EXT VACUUM) and an auxiliary static (vacuum) output (AUX).
The rack is cooled by a fan located under a protective cover on the front panel.
The power supply connection for the ADTS 405F is located on the front panel.
