CHAPTER 2
AIR CONDITIONING
AND PRESSURIZATION
GENERAL
The environmental control system (ECS) provides conditioned air to
the occupied areas and to the avionics cooling systems. Cockpit
instrument panels are cooled via forced ventilation of cabin air.
Cabin pressurization is automatically regulated by two outlfow
valves on the rear pressure bulkhead.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
PNEUMATIC SYSTEM
The pneumatic system supplies bleed air for the following uses:
Engine starting (from the 10th stage engine compressors or,
APU up to 13,000 feet). A ground cart delivering high pres-
sure air can also be used for engine starting.
Thrust reversers (from the 14th stage engine compressors)

Air conditioning and avionics cooling (from the 10th stage
engine compressors or, the APU while on ground and up to
15,000 feet). A ground cart supplying conditioned air can
also be used for cabin heating or cooling. Ground air pressure
is displayed at the left and right 10th-stage pressure readouts
on the ECS page. There is no pressure readout on the ECS
page when the airplane is operating with DC power only.
A leak detection system monitors the 10th- and 14th-stage duct sys-
tems for bleed-air leaks. If a leak is detected, visual warnings appear
on the overhead control panel and the EICAS and accompanied by
aural warnings. The affected duct is isolated by closing the shutoff
valve. The bleed-air leak detection system can be tested via the
DUCT MON switch on the BLEED AIR panel.
AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM
The air-conditioning system provides ventilation and temperature
regulation in the occupied areas. The system consists of two inde-
pendent air-conditioning packs and a ram-air ventilation system.
The air-conditioning packs (air cycle machines with related control
valves and monitoring) normally work in parallel to accomplish
compartment temperature control.
Each pack (Figure 2-2) is normally supplied bleed air from the
onside engine. The APU directly feeds the left pack. Bleed air flow
to each pack is controlled by a pressure regulating shutoff valve
which is controlled by the respective pack switchlights on the AIR
CONDITIONING panel. An isolation valve interconnects the pneu-
matic bleed air sources so that either engine or the APU can supply
both packs. The isolation valve is controlled by the 10th-stage ISOL
switchlight on the BLEED AIR panel.

The left pack primarily supplies the flight compartment (70%) and
supplements the flow to the passenger cabin (30%). The right pack
primarily supplies the cabin (70%) and supplements the flow to the
flight compartment (30%). Either pack can simultaneously supply
conditioned air to both compartments.
The No. 1 fan for each system operates during flight, and the No. 2
fan operates on the ground, with a standby fan for backup (DSPLY
FAN) only. Automatic switching from the No. 1 to the No. 2 fan
occurs through flight/ground sensing from the weight-on-wheel
(WOW) system. The respective control knob permits manual rever-
sionary selections in case of fan failure.

High Pressure
An external high pressure ground power cart can be used to supply
the pneumatic system with a high pressure (HP) compressed source
for engine starting.
Compressed air at the HIGH PRESSURE AIR GROUND CON-
NECTION panel (Figure 2-4), feeds through the 10th-stage
manifold and duct system. Flight compartment indications of
ground air pressure are at the left/right 10th-stage manifold pressure
readouts on the ECS page. There is no pressure readout on the ECS
page when the airplane is operating with DC power only.
Low Pressure
An external low pressure ground power cart can be used for air
conditioning.
PRESSURIZATION SYSTEM
The pressurization system controls the escape of conditioned air
from the occupied areas. Cabin altitude is normally limited to 8.6
psid maximum. At maximum differential, cabin altitude is approxi-
mately 8,000 while at FL 410. Cabin altitude rate of change is
limited to 500 fpm while ascending and 300 fpm while descending.
Pressurization is normally controlled automatically by two pressur-
ization controllers which regulate the opening of two outflow valves
on the rear pressure bulkhead. All pressurization controls and indi-
cations are located on the CABIN PRESS panel and EICAS,
respectively (Figure 2-6).
with auto mode selected for the signs. In case of CPAM failure, the
standby pressurization controller generates the above indications. In
such case, the oxygen masks do not automatically deploy and the
signs do not automatically illuminate.

FLIGHT CREW OPERATING MANUALVolume 1
The outflow valves are electrically controlled (by signals from the
pressurization controller) and pneumatically operated. In automatic
operation, the left outflow valve is the master and the right outflow
is slaved. In manual operation, the right outflow is the primary and
the left is secondary. Open and close signals from the controller
cause opening of the pressure or vacuum metering valve inside each
outflow valve. Pressure from the pneumatic system causes the out-
flow valves to close while vacuum opens the valves. Vacuum is
developed by porting pneumatic pressure through a jet pump.

the COLD position progressively drives the temperature control
valve toward the cold position. Holding the switch in the HOT posi-
tion progressively drives the temperature control valve toward the
hot position.

NOTE
The avionics cooling overboard shutoff valve
(OVBD COOL SOV) is used during ground
operations to flush cool the avionics system
and dump hot air overboard. The valve is nor-
mally open on the ground and closed during
flight. The aircraft will not pressurize to nor-
mal levels if the overboard cooing shutoff
valve is failed open.
NOTE
The inboard cooling shutoff valve (INBD
COOL SOV) is used during flight to flush cool
the avionics system equipment. The valve is
normally closed on the ground and open dur-
ing flight.

The CARGO switch on the overhead panel controls cargo bay air
conditioning (See Figure 2-10).
