WITH COMPLETE SOLUTION
What are the three HYD systems called?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - Green, Blue and Yellow Systems
How is each hydraulic system normally powered?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - • GREEN - engine driven
• BLUE - electrically driven
• YELLOW - engine or electrically driven
When does the BLUE pump normally operate?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - After the first engine is started
If the BLUE system lost pressure, how would pressure be restored?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - • The RAT must be deployed. It does not
deploy automatically upon BLUE system loss of pressure, so it must be
manually deployed with the RAT MAN ON pushbutton.
What can be done to correct low ACUM PRESS indication?
,HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - On the ground, coordinate with ground
personnel and turn on the beacon and YELLOW ELEC pump
With no HYD system power, how can the FWD CARGO door be opened?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - By using a hand pump.
What causes the PTU to operate in if in AUTO?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - Differential pressure of 500 psi between
GREEN and YELLOW systems
When is the PTU inhibited?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - • On the ground with master switches split
and either the nose wheel steering disconnected or the parking brake ON
• For 40 seconds after cargo door is operate
What are some users of the GREEN system?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - • Landing gear
• Normal brakes
• Slats and flaps
• ENG 1 thrust reverser
What are some users of the BLUE system?
, HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - - Emergency generator.
- Slats.
What are some users of the YELLOW system?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - • Flaps
• Nose wheel steering
• Alternate brakes
What do the priority valves do in the HYD systems?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - Removes hydraulic power from the heavy
users and protects the flight controls.
What would cause a FAULT light in the ENG 1 pump?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - - Pump low pressure.
- Over temp in reservoir.
- Low air pressure in reservoir.
- Low quantity.
If the FAULT light illuminates in the ENG 1 pump, what would identify the
specific reason for the FAULT?
HYD Panel [Hydraulics] Answer - ECAM will display the reason
