    • An electronic thermostat cycles the main air fan on and off to maintain temperature

    Correct Answer
    A. Heater control unit (HCU) uses outlet air sensors to compare air temperature with programmed value, cycling the fuel burner on and off to maintain temperature
    Explanation
    The correct answer is the heater control unit (HCU) uses outlet air sensors to compare air temperature with programmed value, cycling the fuel burner on and off to maintain temperature. The HCU monitors the outlet air temperature using sensors and compares it to the desired programmed value. If the temperature is too low, the HCU activates the fuel burner to increase the temperature, and if the temperature is too high, it turns off the burner to decrease the temperature. By continuously cycling the burner on and off, the HCU ensures that the output air temperature remains within the programmed limits.

    What adjustment on the new generation heater (NGH) prevents coking in the combustion section?

    • Fuel pressure

    • Air/fuel ratio

    • Igniter timing

    • Fuel spray pattern

    Correct Answer
    A. Air/fuel ratio
    Explanation
    The air/fuel ratio is the correct answer because it refers to the balance between the amount of air and fuel being supplied to the combustion section of the new generation heater (NGH). Maintaining the correct air/fuel ratio is crucial in preventing coking, which is the buildup of carbon deposits that can occur when there is an imbalance in the combustion process. By ensuring the proper mixture of air and fuel, the NGH can operate efficiently and prevent coking from occurring.

    How does the photocell on the new generation heater (NGH) verify the flame in the burner tube?

    • The photocell's thermal contacts open when heat increases

    • The photocell's thermal contacts close when heat increases

    • The photocell's resistance decreases in the presence of light

    • The photocell's resistance increases in the presence of light

    Correct Answer
    A. The photocell's resistance decreases in the presence of light
    Explanation
    The photocell's resistance decreases in the presence of light. This means that when the flame in the burner tube is present and emitting light, the photocell's resistance will decrease. This change in resistance is used by the NGH to verify the presence of the flame.

    When troubleshooting a defective new generation heater (NGH) charging system, what component do you check first?

    • Charge coil

    • Alternator G1

    • Ignition switch

    • Charge regulator

    Correct Answer
    A. Ignition switch
    Explanation
    When troubleshooting a defective new generation heater (NGH) charging system, the first component to check is the ignition switch. The ignition switch controls the flow of electricity to various components in the charging system, including the charge coil, alternator G1, and charge regulator. If the ignition switch is faulty or not functioning properly, it can disrupt the flow of electricity and prevent the charging system from working correctly. Therefore, checking the ignition switch is the logical first step in troubleshooting the NGH charging system.

    What condition causes erratic operation of the MJ-2A-1 hydraulic test stand?

    • Air in the system

    • Fill relief valve set too low

    • Thermal relief valve set too high

    • Overserviced hydraulic reservoir

    Correct Answer
    A. Air in the system
    Explanation
    Air in the hydraulic system can cause erratic operation of the MJ-2A-1 hydraulic test stand. When air enters the system, it can create air pockets or bubbles that interfere with the proper flow of hydraulic fluid. This can lead to inconsistent performance, reduced efficiency, and potential damage to the components of the test stand. To resolve this issue, it is important to bleed the air out of the system and ensure that it is properly filled with hydraulic fluid.

    Rate this question:

  • 47. 

    The system selector valve on the MJ-2A-1 hydraulic test stand must be placed in the AIRCRAFT position during fill-and-bleed operation in order to

    • Relieve pressure from the system

    • Force fluid to flow into the reservoir

    • Bypass fluid around the gear-type boost pump

    • Force fluid to flow into the low-pressure system

    Correct Answer
    A. Force fluid to flow into the low-pressure system
    Explanation
    During the fill-and-bleed operation, the system selector valve on the MJ-2A-1 hydraulic test stand needs to be placed in the AIRCRAFT position in order to force fluid to flow into the low-pressure system. This position allows the fluid to be directed specifically into the low-pressure system, ensuring that it is properly filled and bled. Placing the valve in any other position would not achieve this desired outcome.

    What MJ-2A-1 hydraulic test stand component prevents thermal expansion of the hydraulic fluid from rupturing a hydraulic line?

    • Heat exchanger

    • Temperature switch

    • Thermal relief valve

    • Low-pressure check/relief valve

    Correct Answer
    A. Thermal relief valve
    Explanation
    The thermal relief valve is the component that prevents thermal expansion of the hydraulic fluid from rupturing a hydraulic line. When the temperature of the fluid exceeds a certain threshold, the thermal relief valve opens to release excess pressure and prevent damage to the hydraulic line. This valve helps maintain the integrity and safety of the hydraulic system by regulating pressure caused by thermal expansion.

    Rate this question:

  • 49. 

    When fluid temperature is below 70 degrees F, what must be accomplished to prevent rupturing the filters on the MJ-2A-1 hydraulic test stand?

    • Fill-and-bleed the system

    • Adjust the thermal relief valve

    • Open the heat exchanger bypass valve

    • Close the heat exchanger bypass valve

    Correct Answer
    A. Open the heat exchanger bypass valve
    Explanation
    When the fluid temperature is below 70 degrees F, opening the heat exchanger bypass valve is necessary to prevent rupturing the filters on the MJ-2A-1 hydraulic test stand. This valve allows the fluid to bypass the heat exchanger, which helps to maintain the temperature of the fluid within a safe range. By opening the bypass valve, the fluid can flow without passing through the heat exchanger, preventing any potential damage to the filters caused by low temperatures.
