Training manual
The proximity sensor electronic unit (PSEU) gives the wing anti-ice control
module (P5-11) air ground sense feedback.
The engine and wing anti-ice module uses this feedback to enable overheat
and thrust conservation protection for the wing anti-ice system.
It also resets (switches off) the WTAI system during takeoff.
CONTROL & INDICATION.
The wing anti-ice valve is open when the wing ant-ice switch is in the ON
position.
The blue VALVE OPEN light monitors the valve and switch positions.
These are the light indications :
- Light is off - the switch is in the OFF position and the valve is closed
- Light is dim - the switch is in the ON position and the valve is open
- Light is bright - the switch position and valve position disagree or the
valve is in transit.
Overheat switches in each wing leading edge, protect the slats from overheat.
This overheat protection works only when the airplane is on the ground.
Switches on the auto throttle switch packs automatically close the WTAI valves
when you advance the engine thrust levers.
This conserves engine thrust for takeoff.
This thrust conservation protection only works when the airplane is on the
ground.

Flight Operations.
When the airplane is in the air, the K1 relay energizes to open the WTAI
shutoff valves when the wing anti-ice switch is in the ON position.
Indication.
This is the control panel logic for the dimming diode control of the blue VALVE
OPEN indication lights :
- Light is off - the switch is in the OFF position and the valve is closed
- Light is dim - the switch is in the ON position and the valve is open
- Light is bright - the switch position and valve position are not the same
or the valve is in transit.
These things control the bright and dim functions of the VALVE OPEN lights on
anti-ice panel :
- System switch and valve position feedback
- Control panel solid state switch circuits
- Voltage reduction zener diodes (dim mode).
Takeoff.
When the thrust levers are >60 TRA, the WTAI valves close.
This decreases engine bleed Loads and conserves thrust for climb.
The WING ANTI-ICE switch is a circuit breaker type switch.
Resistance in the K1 energizing circuit keeps current in the switch below its
trip threshold.
During takeoff, a logic circuit in the control panel gives the switch a low
resistance path to ground.
This causes an over current in the switch and the switch trips to the OFF
position.
The pilot must select WTAI after takeoff if necessary.

2.3. Components.
WTAI-Shutoff Valve.
The wing thermal anti-ice shutoff valves control air flow from the pneumatic
manifold to the anti-ice supply ducts.
There is one valve in each wing leading edge, outboard of the engine strut.
The valve is a motor operated butterfly type valve.
It has a manual override and position indication lever.
The valves use 115V AC power.
Two V-flange clamps mount the valve to the duct.
Wing Anti-Icing Telescoping Duct.
The wing anti-icing telescoping ducts supply hot air to the spray tubes in the
wing leading edge.
There are 6 wing anti-icing telescoping ducts, three on each wing. The
telescoping ducts have an inner and outer section.
They slide over each other during slat extension and retraction. The inner tube
is teflon coated to prevent binding when the two sections slide over each
other.
The anti-icing telescoping ducts let hot air from the WTAI duct flow to the slat
spray tubes.
The spray tubes have holes to let the bleed air into the slat cavity. The air
circulates in the cavity and warms the slat.
This prevents ice formation on the slat. The air then bleeds overboard through
holes in the bottom of the slat.

When the control signal energizes the valve solenoid, the solenoid lets
upstream duct pressure into the valve regulator.
The regulator controls the pressure and sends it to the actuator.
The actuator opens the valve against spring pressure.
A downstream sense line on the valve biases the regulator.
The regulator modulates the valve butterfly plate to limit downstream pressure
to 50 psi maximum.
Valve limit switches give valve position feedback to the P5-11 module for
system status indication.
Training Information Point.
The inlet cowl TAI valve has a manual override collar.
You can manually lock the valve in the full open or full closed position if the
Valve fails.

The total air temperature (TAT) probe anti-icing system makes sure there is no
ice on the TAT probe.
This prevents false air data signals that ice can cause.
When you replace the TAT probe, make sure the airplane electrical lead does
not fall down into the fuselage.
Wires that fall into the fuselage can be difficult to get.
NOTE : Use only hardwood or plastic tools when you remove or apply the
sealant around the probe base plate.
Do not damage the fusetage aluminum cladding when you remove
sealant.
Put the control switch to the ON position to turn on the probe heat.
This lets 115V AC power through current detection circuit to the probe heater.
When the probe heater uses current, the current detection circuit causes the
amber TEMP PROBE light to go out.
If the probe heater does not use current, the circuit causes these indications :

Indication.
There is an indication light for each air data probe.
These are the indications :
- The light goes off when the related air data probe has heat
- The light comes on when the related air data probe does not have heat.
The system indication lights have the press-to-test function.
You can also use the master dim and test switch to do a test of the lights.
Functional Description. (Probe with test switch)
The total ait temperature (TAT) probe anti-icing system uses electric power and
resistance-type heating elements.
The system uses 115Vac and 28v dc power.
The probe heating element uses 115v ac power.
The current detection circuit uses 28v dc power.
On the ground, put the control switch to the ON position.
This energizes relay K1 and stops 115v ac power through the current detection
circuit to the probe heater.
The amber TEMP PROBE light does not come on.
Push the TEST switch (with control switch in ON position) to deenergize relay
K1.
This lets 115v power through the current detection circuit to the probe heater.
If the probe heater does not use current, the circuit causes the amber TEMP
PROBE light to come on.
In flight, relay K1 remains deenergized.

5.1. General.
The control cabin window anti-icing system improves window impact strength
and prevents ice formation on the flight compartment windows.
The control cabin anti-icing system uses electrical power to heat the flight
compartment windows.
The controls and indications for the control cabin window anti-icing system
are on the P5 overhead panel.
Window heat control units (WHCUs) are part of the control cabin window
anti-icing system.
The WHCUs do these things :
- Monitor window temperatures,
- Supply ON and OVERHEAT system indication,
- Do system tests,
- Program power output to the windows.
The WHCUs control power to these windows :
- No. 1 left & right,
- No. 2 left & right.
Thermal switches monitor window temperature and control power to these
windows :
- No. 4 left & right,
- No. 5 left & right,
- No. 3 left & right (On some airplanes)
Windows in the thermal switch control systems are not part of the P5

Power Test.
Put the switch in the PWR TEST position to do a confidence check of WHCU
output power.
The test will operate on all WHCUs that have their WINDOW HEAT switch in
the ON position.
The test will cause the WHCU to supply full heating power to the window
regardless of the window temperature.
The green ON lights come on when heat current is sensed.
This shows the system it OK.
After you verify the green light, release the test switch immediately to prevent
window overheat.
Overheat Test.
Put the test switch in the OVHT position to do a test of the over temperature
protection circuits in the WHCUs.
The test will operate on all WHCUs that have their WINDOW HEAT switch in
the ON position.
The test will cause circuitry in the WHCU to simulate an over temperature
condition.
The results of a successful test are the same as an over temperature condition.
The amber OVERHEAT light and master caution and ANTI-ICE annunciator
lights come on.
The green ON lights will stay off or go off if they were on.
To reset the system after an OVHT test, momentarily place the WINDOW HEAT
switches to the OFF position.
Then return the switch to the ON position.

Overheat Test.
Put the test switch in the OVHT position to do a test of the over temperature

ANTI-ICE annunciator lights come on. The green ON lights will stay off or go
off if they were on. To reset the system after an OVHT test, momentarily place
the WINDOW HEAT switches to the OFF position. Then return the switch to
the ON position.
Overheat Protection.
The WHCUs have overheat protection circuitry.
If the WHCU detects both of these conditions, an overheat trip occults :
- Window temperature above 62C/145F (nominal)
- Electric current to the window heat circuit.
The overheat protection circuit operates only while power is applied to the
window. When an overheat condition is sensed K1 & K2 are relaxed. This
removes power from the window. This also provides a ground for amber
OVERHEAT light on P5-9 panel. An overheat trip causes these things to
happen :
- Electric current to the window is off,
- The green ON light goes out,
- The amber OVERHEAT light panel comes on
- The MASTER CAUTION & ANTI-ICE annunciator lights come on.
To reset the system, move the WINDOW HEAT switch to the OFF position, and
then back to the ON position. An overheat cannot be reset until the window
cools.

prevents a temperature lag between the switch and the window.
The thermal switch is a normally closed single pole, snap action bimetallic
device.
It operates by thermal expansion.
The thermal switches are wired in series with the windows they control.
Put the related SIDE WINDOW HEAT switch to ON to energize the system.
115V AC power moves through a thermal switch to the resistive layer of each
window.
The resistance of the paste to the current produces heat and warms the
window.
As the No. 5 window get warm, so does the thermal switch.
The switch opens at a temperature of 43C/110F or more.
This opens the circuit, and removes power to the windows.
When the No. 5 window and thermal switch temperature decreases to
32C/90F (nominal), the switch closes and completes the heat circuit.
This starts the window heat again.
