Questions and Answers
- 1.
During operation of the EPU-6/E frequency converter it is determined that the E and F pin voltage is not needed for the aircraft. The operator places the loop/bypass/28V to aircraft switch to what position?
- A.
28V to aircraft
- B.
Neutral
- C.
Bypass
- D.
Loop
Correct Answer
C. BypassExplanation
During the operation of the EPU-6/E frequency converter, it is found that the E and F pin voltage is not required for the aircraft. In this situation, the operator should place the loop/bypass/28V to aircraft switch in the "Bypass" position. This means that the converter will bypass the E and F pin voltage and provide power directly from the 28V source to the aircraft, ensuring that the necessary power is supplied without relying on the E and F pin voltage.Rate this question:

The acceleration limiter valve on the A/M32A-95 gas turbine compressor operates a poppet valve to control fuel flow to the atomizer using control air pressure combined with
- A.
Oil pressure
- B.
Fuel pressure
- C.
Spring tension
- D.
Plenum air pressure
Correct Answer
C. Spring tensionExplanation
The acceleration limiter valve on the A/M32A-95 gas turbine compressor uses spring tension to control fuel flow to the atomizer. This means that the valve is designed in such a way that the tension of the spring determines the amount of fuel that is allowed to flow through the valve. As the spring tension increases or decreases, the valve will open or close accordingly, regulating the fuel flow and ultimately controlling the acceleration of the gas turbine compressor.Rate this question:

What component on an MA-3D air conditioner increases the ambient air temperature approximately 60 degrees Fahrenheit?
- A.
Blower
- B.
Compressor
- C.
Evaporator
- D.
Aftercooler
Correct Answer
A. BlowerExplanation
The blower on an MA-3D air conditioner increases the ambient air temperature approximately 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The blower is responsible for drawing in air from the surrounding environment and passing it over the evaporator coil. As the air passes over the coil, it absorbs heat from the refrigerant, causing the temperature of the air to increase. This heated air is then blown back into the room, raising the ambient air temperature by approximately 60 degrees Fahrenheit.Rate this question:

The temperature controller on an MA-3D air conditioner opens the hot gas bypass valve if the
- A.
Suction air pressure is too high so the boiling point of the refrigerant can be decreased
- B.
Air pressure is too low so the boiling point of the R134a must be increased
- C.
Suction pressure is too high so the boiling point of the refrigerant must be decreased to decrease the output air temperature
- D.
Suction pressure is too low so boiling point of refrigerant must be increased to increase output air temp
Correct Answer
D. Suction pressure is too low so boiling point of refrigerant must be increased to increase output air tempExplanation
The correct answer is that the suction pressure is too low, so the boiling point of the refrigerant must be increased to increase the output air temperature. This is because the boiling point of a refrigerant is directly related to its pressure. When the suction pressure is too low, it means that the refrigerant is not evaporating efficiently, resulting in a lower output air temperature. By increasing the boiling point of the refrigerant, the system can ensure that it evaporates properly and produces a higher output air temperature.Rate this question:
