6 KA TI-FM AUXILIARY HYDRAULIC SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The Kawak Aviation Technologies auxiliary hydraulic system is designed to provide a 26 horsepower auxiliary power source for the utilization of hydraulic powered implements such as agricultural, forestry, and firefighting equipment. The Kawak Aviation Technologies auxiliary hydraulic system is a self contained system that only requires power from an accessory drive pad on the aircraft's transmission and electrical power for the operation of the hydraulic control valve that modulates the hydraulic flow to the installed hydraulic implement. The hydraulic pump is driven by an auxiliary reduction gearcase installed between the #2 generator and the generator pad on the accessory gear case of the transmission. Since the electrical loads on the #2 generator typically are small (except with the #1 generator offline) the available surplus power is used to drive the auxiliary hydraulic system. The auxiliary drive system is isolated from the primary aircraft power train by a shear coupling located between the drive pad on the transmission and the auxiliary reduction gearcase. The hydraulic reservoir mounts aft of the transmission in conjunction with the ships hydraulic reservoirs in the structure used to house the ships hydraulic reservoirs, oil cooler, etc. The sealed reservoir assembly includes intemal isolation baffling, retum oil diffusion, venting features, along with oil level sight glasses, reservoir relief, and a predetermined air space to accommodate thermal expansion of the oil. Also located in the compartment aft ofthe transmission is a fan driven hydraulic oil cooler and the control valve for activating the auxiliary hydraulic system. FAA Approved: NOV 3 0?DCJ.S 6

7 A supplemental control panel for the auxiliary hydraulic system is installed in the center instrument panel. The panel contains a digital pressure gauge for monitoring the pressure of the auxiliary hydraulic system, a toggle switch (MANUAL 0/R) to activate the system, and amber warning lights for high hydraulic oil temperature and low reservoir oil. Circuit breakers for the auxiliary hydraulic system are located in overhead console supplied from the main aircraft electrical bus. It is also typical to integrate the cockpit control for the auxiliary hydraulic system with the existing cyclic implement control switch for the spray, firefighting, or bucket system. It is then possible to activate the auxiliary hydraulic system simultaneous to the operation of the implement. For normal operation, the hydraulic pump draws oil from the reservoir and delivers the oil to the hydraulic control valve. With the system in the "OFF" position, all oil is bypassed directly through the valve to the oil cooler, thru the 10 micron hydraulic filter and back to the reservoir at a minimal operating pressure. When either the "MANUAL 0/R" switch on the panel is activated or the implement controller supplies power to the control valve, a bypass circuit in the control valve closes directing all oil to flow to the implement. Return flow from the hydraulic implement goes to the control valve and then back through the cooler and filter. All hydraulic oil under any operating condition must pass through the 10 micron filter before returning to the reservoir. The filter head is equipped with a 25 psi bypass valve. The hydraulic manifold also incorporates a pressure relief valve set at 2400 psi. If the system is activated with no implement connected or the pressure requirements to operate the implement exceed 2400 psi, the relief valve will open limiting the system pressure by bypassing the oil directly to the return side of the system. FAA Approved: NOV 3 0 ~'CCJ(i 7

8 20690 Carmen Loop, Suite# 102. The "P 1" and "Rl" ports of the control valve that supply oil to and from the hydraulic accessory are terminated in the form of quick disconnect couplings located inside the helicopter aft of the transmission opening. If using an implement suspended from the cargo hook that is jettisonable, provisions must be made for breakaway hydraulic connections under the aircraft. The auxiliary hydraulic system shares the available power at transmission accessory pad with the #2 AC generator. The normal electrical draw on the #2 AC generator is typically very low (less than 1 KV A) with no cabin heater operating. The residual power available at the pad is used for driving the hydraulic system with the hydraulic pump and system relief valve setting designed to work within the limits of the power available. Should the main (#1) AC generator go offline and require the #2 AC generator to assume the primary electrical supply requirements of the aircraft, the auxiliary hydraulic system must be turned off. The auxiliary hydraulic system must also be turned off when using the cabin heater as the combined electrical loads on the #2 AC generator and the auxiliary hydraulic system when operating at full capacity exceed the drive pad limits on the transmission.
