- see figure 7.13.1
Ice protection equipment is as follows :
-
Pneumatic deice system for inboard, central and outboard wing and for
stabilizers : AIRFRAME DE ICE
-
Propeller electrical deice system : PROP DE ICE
-
Windshield electrical deice system : WINDSHIELD
-
Electrical heating system for both pitots and for the stall warning sensor :
PITOT L HTR and PITOT R & STALL HTR
-
Turbine air inlet deice systems : INERT SEP
Deicing check and control panel is located on the lower L.H. side of the instrument
panel.
Wing and empennage deicing
A pneumatic deice system assures protection of wing leading edges, horizontal
stabilizer, elevator horns and vertical stabilizer. The system automatically cycles
when AIRFRAME DE ICE switch is set to ON. The 67-second cycle breaks down in
two inflation cycles :
-
a first cycle induces inflation of leading edges deicer boots in wing central and
outboard sections.
-
the second cycle induces inflation of leading edges deicer boots in horizontal
stabilizer, elevator horns, vertical stabilizer and wing inboard section,
During each inflation cycle, one of the two corresponding warning lights located above
AIRFRAME DE ICE switch, remains illuminated.
Wing leading edge icing inspection light - see chapter 7.8 paragraph Exterior lighting.
