1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF ICE DEIECfOR SYSTEM
1.1 By means of a solid state electronic circuit, a warning light and audio alarm are
actuated by the blockage of light rays by frost or ice build-up between the light
emitting source and the photodetector probe in the carhureltor. This system is
independent of and is not affected by temperature or pressure changes. In the
absence of frost or ice, the warning light remains off and the audio alarm remains
silent.
1.2 The "ADJUST" rotary control is provided to adjust the system sensitivity level for ice
detection. This setting should be just below the threshold of the "CARE ICE" warning
light illumination after engine start.
}.3 The ''TEST'' switch is provided to verify system operation by activating the red
"CARE ICE" light and the audio alarm. The "RESET" switch is provided to allow the
pilot to mute the audio alarm.
1.4 With increasing time or operation on the engine, a slight film of fuel residue may form
on the probe which may result in a slight reduction of sensitivity at the original setting
when the detector is first installed. This will be obselVed when it is required to turn
the "ADJUST" rotary control to an ever increasing clockwise setting as time goes on.
However, the basic sensitivity of the detector is not reduced when adjusted as
outlined above. If the "ADJUST" rotary control must be turned fully clockwise and
the light still fails to extinguish, then the probe must be removed for cleaning with a
soft cloth and white gasoline. This procedure must be carried out by a qualified
maintenance engineer.
NOTE:This instrument is approved as optional equipment only and /litht operation
predicated on its use is prohibited. Procedures listed herein on the use of heat
are intended to supplement existing instructions.
