Emergency Depressurization - BOMBARDIER Challenger 601-3A CL-600-2B16 Pilot Training Manual

EMERGENCY
DEPRESSURIZATION
GENERAL
An emergency depressurization system is avail-
able to provide rapid decompression of the air-
p l a n e w h e n a n e m e rg e n cy s u c h a s a i r
contamination, cabin fire, or failure of the max-
imum differential control occurs (other situations
may also require emergency depressurization).
CONTROL
The emergency depressurization system is
controlled by a guarded switchlight on the
pressurization control panel (Figure 12-1) la-
beled "EMER DEPRESS." When pushed, an
amber ON light in the switch will illuminate,
and battery bus voltage will be applied to the
electro-pneumatic (left) outflow valve. Con-
trol pressure in both outflow valves will dis-
sipate rapidly. Both outflow valves will open
and the cabin will depressurize very rapidly.
(At 13,000 ±500 feet the altitude limiter will
take over to prevent further cabin climb as
long as there is a source of pressurizing air.)
