QuestionAnswer
Which allows free fluid flow in one direction and no fluid flow in the other direction? Shuttle valve
Relief valves are used in hydraulic systems as damage-preventing units.
The removal of air from an aircraft hydraulic system is generally accomplished by operating the various hydraulic components through several cycles.
The component in the hydraulic system that is used to direct the flow of fluid is the selector valve
If a rigid tube is too short for the flare to reach its seat before tightening, pulling it into place by tightening may distort the flare.
The installation of a new metal hydraulic line should be made with enough bends to allow the tube to expand and contract with temperature changes and v to absorb vibration

The cabin pressure of an aircraft in flight is maintained at the selected altitude by... controlling the rate at which air leaves the cabin
How much pressure will be needed to produce a force of 2,000 pounds if the piston has an area of 2.5 square inches? 800 psi
During a routine contamination check, hydraulic fluid that appears to be visibly clean is good/usable fluid. False
What type of valve in an aircraft hydraulic system permits fluid to flow freely in one direction, but restricts the rate at which fluid is allowed to flow in the other direction? * orifice check valve
What test is used to determine the serviceability of an oxygen cylinder? pressure test with water
How is the cabin pressure of a pressurized aircraft usually controlled? By a pressure-sensitive valve that controls the output pressure of the pressurization pump.
Pascal's Law states that pressure applied to any part of a confined liquid is transmitted with undiminished intensity to every other part. True
What is the main purpose of a pressurized reservoir in a hydraulic system? Prevent hydraulic pump cavitation.
The spherical-type accumulator is constructed in______________ halves that are fastened, threaded, or welded together. Two
The primary purpose of a hydraulic actuating unit is to transform. fluid pressure into useful work
Characteristics of MIL-H-7644 hydraulic fluid are * blue color, vegetable base, will burn, natural rubber
The priority valve gives priority to the non-critical hydraulic subsystems over critical systems when system pressure is low. False
In addiction to viscosity, what are three important characteristics of hydraulic fluids that manufactures take into account? fire point, flash point, and chemical stability
What are the two general types of contamination found within hydraulic systems? abrasives and nonabriasives
Skydrol@ is ______ dyed color? * Purple
The air that is expended and no longer needed when an actuating unit is operated in a pneumatic system is exhausted or dumped, usually overboard.

What test is used to determine the serviceability of an oxygen cylinder? pressure test with water
The altitude controller maintains cabin altitude by modulation of the outflow valve
What type of oxygen system uses the rebreather bag-type mask? Continuous flow
How is the cabin pressure of a pressurized aircraft usually controlled? By an automatic outflow valve that dumps all the pressure in excess of the amount for which it is set.
Although aviation oxygen is similar to commercially processed oxygen, aviation oxygen is processed further to removed minute traces of nitrogen. False
What is the purpose of a pressure relief valve. limit the amount of pressure preventing failure of components
