Ice And Rain Protection; General; Introduction - BOMBARDIER Challenger 601-3A CL-600-2B16 Pilot Training Manual

INTRODUCTION

The Canadair Challenger CL-600-2B16, model CL-601-3A/R is equipped with both ice
detection and anti-icing systems. The ice detection system warns the pilots of potential
ice accumulation before it becomes visible on any airplane components. The anti-icing
systems prevent ice accumulation on engine components, wings, windshields, and the
air data system (ADS) probes.
The empennage does not require anti-icing. The airplane does not require, and is not
equipped with, windshield wipers.

GENERAL

The Challenger is equipped with two inde-
pendent ice detectors which alert the crew if
only a minute quantity of ice forms on the
probes. Pilot action is required to activate the
anti-icing systems.
The anti-icing systems are divided into two cat-
egories: those which use hot engine bleed air,
such as wing and engine anti-icing, and those
which use electrical power, such as the ADS
heaters and windshield anti-icing.

dual outlet valve in the flight compartment
and controlled by a demist knob on the copi-
lot's fascia panel.
Both types of anti-icing systems are electri-
cally controlled from panels in the cockpit.
Warning and caution systems are provided to
indicate malfunctions.
