The
hydraulic
system
reduces
the
pilot's
workload
by
providing
hydraulically
assisted
servo-controls
to
actuate
the
flight
controls.
The
hydraulic
fluid
used
must
comply
with
specifications
AIR

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
(Figure
1)
..,
The
hydraulic
system
basically
includes
the
f0110wing
:
-A
gear
pump (20)
driven
by the
main
gearbox.
-A
regulator
unit
mounted
on the
R.H.
side
of
the
M.G.8..
containing:
.a
pressure
regulating
valve
(18)
.a
pressure
switch
(16)
.a
filter
(17)
.a
solenoid
valve
(15).
-A
hydraulic
reservoir
(21)
supplying
the
pump.
-Three
single-cylinder
main
servo-controls
(1)
(2)
(3)
driving
the
fixed
swashplate.
Each
servo-contro1
is
equipped
with
a safety
system
comprising:
.a
hydraulic
accumulator
(4)
.a
non-return
valve
(5)
.a
solenoid
valve
(6).
In
the
event
of
a hydraulic
pressure
failure,
this
system
provides
hydraulic
assistance
for
sufficient
time
to
enter
a flight
configuration
with
acceptable
control
operating
loads.
.
-A
single-cylinder
yaw
servo-control
(10)
driving
the
tail
rotor
control
rod.
In
the
event
of
a hydraulic
pressure
failure,
a load
compensating
system
is
provided
to
actuate
the
control
rod
with
acceptable
yaw
pedal
operating
loads;
this
system
comprises:
.a
hydraulic
accumulator
(4)
.a
non-return
valve
(5)
.a
pressure-drop
solenoid
valve
(8)
on the
accumulator
.a
servo
compensator
(9)
.pressure
relief
valve
(7).
The
rated
system
operating
pressure
is
4D bars.
