OXYGEN SYSTEM
MODELTR182
PILOT'S OPERATING HANDBOOK
SUPPLEMENT
The Oxygen Duration
Chart (figure 2) should be used in determining
the usable duration
(in hours) of the oxygen supply in your airplane. The
following procedure
outlines the method of finding the duration
from the
chart.
1.
Note the available
oxygen pressure
shown on the pressure
gage.
2.
Locate this pressure
on the scale on the left side of the chart, then
go aCrOSSthe chart horizontally
to the right until you intersect the
line representing
the number of persons
making the flight. After
intersecting
the line, drop down vertically
to the bottom of the
chart and read the duration
in hours given on the scale.
3.
As an example
of the above procedure,
1400 psi of pressure
will
safely sustain the pilot only for nearly 6 hours and 15minutes. The
same pressure
will sustain
the pilot and three passengers
for
approximately
2 hours and 30 minutes.
NOTE
The Oxygen Duration Chart is based on a standard
config-
uration
oxygen
system
having
one orange
color-coded
hose assembly for the pilot and green color-coded hoses for
the passengers.
If orange color-coded
hoses are provided
for pilot and passengers,
it will be necessary
to compute
new oxygen duration
figures due to the greater
consump-
tion of oxygen with these hoses. This is accomplished
by
computing
the total duration
available
to the pilot only
(from PILOT ONLY line
on chart),
then dividing
this
duration
by the number of persons
(pilot and passengers)
using oxygen.
SECTION 2
LIMITATIONS
There is no change to the airplane limitations
when oxygen equipment
is installed.
SECTION 3
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
There is no change to the airplane emergency
procedures
when oxygen
equipment
is installed.
