Fire Warning and Protection
The fire warning and protection system provides for continuous detection of engine and/or APU fire, and crewmember notification through visual, aural, and vocal warnings. The airplane is equipped with fire extinguishing capability for each engine nacelle area or for the auxiliary power unit compartment.
Cargo Compartment smoke detection and fire extinguishing is provided by a separate system.
Flight Controls
Primary flight controls consist of conventional aileron, rudder, and elevator control surfaces. Secondary flight controls consist of lift augmenting leading-edge slats, spoilers (lateral control / speedbrake and ground spoilers), inboard and outboard flaps, and horizontal stabilizer. The primary flight controls are cable connected to the control surfaces and are aerodynamically actuated via control tabs. When the secondary flight controls are hydraulically actuated, both the left and right hydraulic systems supply operating power. During powered rudder operation, rudder hydraulic power is supplied by the right hydraulic system. When elevator boost is required, hydraulic power is supplied by the left hydraulic system.
Fuel
The fuel system consists of three integral tanks - one in each wing and one in the wing center section. The tanks are normally filled through a single-point, pressure-fueling adapter, located approximately mid-span of the right wing leading edge. The pressure-fueling control panel is located just inboard of this adapter. A manual defueling valve is located just inboard of the pressure-fueling control panel to permit defueling or fuel transfer through the pressure-fueling adapter.
An overwing gravity fueling adapter is located on top of the outboard section of each wing tank.
Some airplanes are also equipped with two auxiliary fuselage fuel tanks; one in the mid cargo compartment and one in the aft cargo compartment. These tanks are not used at CAL.
Hydraulics
Hydraulic power is provided by two separate, hydraulically closed-circuit systems identified as the left system and the right system. The right system provides hydraulic power to the rudder, aft passenger entrance stairway, and the landing gear actuating subsystem; the left system provides hydraulic power to the elevator augmentor. All other hydraulic subsystems are served by both systems through separate valves and actuators. The primary source of hydraulic power for each system is an engine-driven pump with an electrically powered auxiliary pump in the right system. There is a power transfer unit between the right and left systems with adequate capacity to transfer full available power between systems.
Ice and Rain Protection
Ice and rain protection is provided for various areas and components of the airplane by the following systems:
