Drawing: N1 tachometer

Gas Producer Tachometer (N1)

The pilot and gunner N1 tachometers display the RPM of the gas producer turbine speed in percent. The circuit is powered by the dc essential bus and protected by the GAS PROD circuit breaker.

Drawing: Volt/Ammeter gauge

Volt - Ammeter Indicator

The pilot indicator displays the dc power voltage being supplied to the power distribution system. Simultaneous display of dc amperage is displayed only when the starter-generator is supplying power to the distribution system. The indicator right scale displays the voltage. The left scale displays the amperage. The circuit is powered by the dc essential bus and protected by the DCVM circuit breaker. There is no means of monitoring amperage load when dc power is supplied by the TRU. Overcharging of the battery or a thermal runaway condition could occur with no indication to the pilot.

Drawing: Yellow Mark Transient, operation in the yellow area may reduce generator life.

 

 

 

Drawing: Turbine Gas Temperature Gauge

Turbine Gas Temperature (TGT)

The pilot and gunner Turbine Gas Temperature (TGT) indicators displays the temperature in degrees celsius of the air in the first stage N2 nozzle. The circuits are powered by the dc essential bus and protected by the TGT IND circuit breaker.

Drawing: Green Mark 400° C to 820° C Continuous Operations
Drawing: Yellow Mark 820° C to 880° C 30 Minute Limit (Military Power)
Drawing: Red Sawtooth Down 880° C thru 950° C Transient for Starting and Acceleration (5 sec)
Drawing: Red Dot 950° C Maximum for Starting

 

 

 

Drawing: Xmsm oil pressure/temperature gauge

Transmission Oil Pressure / Temperature Indicator

The pilot indicator displays the pressure in psi and temperature in degrees celsius of the transmission oil. The electrical circuit is powered by the dc essential bus and protected by the TEMP IND ENG XMSN circuit breaker

Transmission Oil Pressure
Drawing: Red Sawtooth Up 30 PSI Minimum
Drawing: Green Mark 40 to 70 PSI Continuous Operation
Drawing: Yellow Mark 30 to 40 PSI (ground run below 91% RPM [N2] only)
Drawing: Red Sawtooth Down 70 PSI Maximum
Transmission Oil Temperature
Drawing: Red Sawtooth Dn 110° C Maximum

 

 

 

Drawing: Engine oil pressure/temperature gauge

Engine Oil Pressure / Temperature Indicator

The pilot indicator displays the psi pressure of the oil at the pressure side of the oil pump and the temperature as degrees celsius of the oil at the engine oil inlet. The circuit is powered by the dc essential bus and protected by the TEMP IND ENG XMSN circuit breaker.

Engine Oil Pressure
Drawing: Green Mark 80 to 100 PSI Continuous Operation
Drawing: Red Sawtooth Up 25 PSI Minimum
Drawing: Red Sawtooth Down 100 PSI Maximum
Engine Oil Temperature
Drawing: Red Sawtooth Down 93° C maximum below 30° C FAT (Free Air Temperature)
