Bleed Air System Introduction
Air for the bleed air system can be supplied by the engines, APU, or an external
air cart/source. The APU or external cart supplies air to the bleed air duct prior to
engine start. After engine start, air for the bleed air system is normally supplied by
the engines.
The following systems rely on the bleed air system for operation:
* Air conditioning/pressurization
+ Wing and engine thermal anti-icing
* Engine starting
* Hydraulic reservoirs pressurization
+ Water tank pressurization
[Option - Aspirated TAT]
* Aspirated TAT probe
Switches on the air conditioning panel operate the APU and engine bleed air
supply system.
Engine Bleed System Supply
Engine bleed air is obtained from the Sth and 9th stages of the compressor section.
When Sth stage low pressure bleed air is insufficient for the bleed air system
requirements, the high stage valve modulates open to maintain adequate bleed air
pressure. During takeoff, climb, and most cruise conditions, low pressure bleed air
from the Sth stage is adequate and the high stage valve remains closed.
Engine Bleed Air Valves
The engine bleed air valve acts as a pressure regulator and shutoff valve. With the
engine bleed air switch ON, the valve is DC activated and pressure operated. The
valve maintains proper system operating pressure and reduces bleed air outflow in
response to high bleed air temperature.
Bleed Trip Sensors
Bleed trip sensors illuminate the respective BLEED TRIP OFF light when engine
bleed air temperature or pressure exceeds a predetermined limit. The respective
engine bleed air valve closes automatically.

Air Conditioning Distribution
Conditioned air is collected in the mix manifold. The temperature of the air is
directly related to the setting of the CONT CABIN and PASS CABIN temperature
selectors.
Overheat detection is provided by temperature sensors located downstream of the
packs. An overheat condition causes the appropriate mix valves to drive full cold
and the DUCT OVERHEAT light to illuminate. A temperature higher than the
duct overheat causes the appropriate pack valve to close and the PACK TRIP OFF
light to illuminate.
Flight Deck
Since the flight deck requires only a fraction of the air supply provided by the left
pack, most of the left pack air output is mixed with the right pack supply and
routed to the passenger cabin.
Conditioned air for the flight deck branches into several risers which end at the
floor, ceiling, and foot level outlets. Air diffusers on the floor under each seat
deliver continuous air flow as long as the manifold is pressurized.
Overhead diffusers are located on the flight deck ceiling, above and aft of the No.
3 windows. Each of these outlets can be opened or closed as desired by tuming a
slotted adjusting screw.
There is also a dual purpose valve behind the rudder pedais of each pilot. These
valves provide air for warming the pilots” feet and for defogging the inside of the
No. 1 windshields. Each valve is controlled by knobs located on the Captain's and
First Officer's panel, respectively.
Passenger Cabin
The passenger cabin air supply distribution system consists of the mix manifold,
sidewall risers, and an overhead distribution duct.
Sidewall risers go up the right and left wall of the passenger cabin to supply air to
the overhead distribution duct. The overhead distribution duct routes conditioned
air to the passenger cabin. It extends from the forward to the aft end of the ceiling
along the airplane centerline and also supplies the sidewall diffusers.
Recirculation Fan
The recirculation fan system reduces the air conditioning system pack load and the
engine bleed air demand. Air from the passenger cabin and electrical equipment
bay is drawn to the forward cargo bay where it is filtered and recirculated to the
mix manifold. The fan is driven by an AC motor. The fan operates with the recire
fan switch in AUTO except with both packs on and one or both in HIGH.
Page 10
Boeing B737 NG - Systems Summary [Air Systems]
Equipment Cooling
The equipment cooling system cools electronic equipment in the flight deck and
theE&E bay.
The equipment cooling system consists of a supply duct and an exhaust duct. Each
duct has a normal fan and an alternate fan. The supply duct supplies cool air to the
flight deck displays and electronic equipment in the E & E bay. The exhaust duct
collects and discards warm air from the flight deck displays, the overhead and aft
electronic panels, circuit breaker panels in the flight deck, and electronic
equipment in the E & E bay.
Loss of airflow due to failure of an equipment cooling fan results in illumination
of the related equipment cooling OFF light. Selecting the alternate fan should
restore airflow and extinguish the OFF light within approximately 5 seconds.
Ifan overtemperature occurs on the ground, alerting is provided through the crew
call hom in the nose wheel well.
Forward Cargo Compartment
The recirculation fan system circulates air from the passenger cabin around the
lining of the forward cargo compartment. When the overboard exhaust valve is
closed, exhaust air from the equipment cooling system is also diffused to the lining
of the forward cargo compartment for additional inflight heating.
Conditioned Air Source Connection
A ground air conditioning source may be connected to the mix manifold to
distribute preconditioned air throughout the airplane.
Page 11
Boeing B737 NG - Systems Summary [Air Systems]
Ram Air System
The ram air system provides cooling air for the heat exchangers. Operation of the
system is automatically controlled by the packs through operation of ram air inlet
doors.
On the ground, or during slow flight with the flaps not fully retracted, the ram air
inlet doors move to the full open position for maximum cooling. In normal cruise,
the doors modulate between open and closed. A RAM DOOR FULL OPEN light
illuminates whenever a ram door is fully open.
Deflector doors are installed forward of the ram air inlet doors to prevent slush
ingestion prior to liftoff and after touchdown. Deflector doors extend when
activated electrically by the air-ground safety sensor.
Cooling Cycle
Flow through the cooling cycle starts with bleed air passing through a heat
exchanger for cooling. The air then flows to an air cycle machine for refrigeration.
The processed cold air is then combined with hot air which has bypassed the air
cycle machine, then through a high pressure water separator which removes
moisture. This conditioned air then flows into the mix manifold and distribution
system.
Overheat protection is provided by temperature sensors located in the cooling
cycle. An overheat condition causes the pack valve to close and the PACK light to
illuminate.
Pack Temperature Control
Electronic controllers command the pack temperature control valve toward open
or closed to satisfy pack discharge requirements.
Ifa primary pack control fails, the affected pack is controlled by the standby pack
control inthe opposite controller. A primary or standby pack control failure causes
the PACK, MASTER CAUTION and AIR COND System Annunciator lights to
illuminate during recall.
If both the primary and the standby pack controls fail for the same pack, the
PACK, MASTER CAUTION, and AIR COND System Annunciator lights
illuminate. The pack will continue to operate without control unless excessive
temperatures cause the pack to trip off.

Zone Temperature Control
There are three zones: flight deck, forward cabin and aft cabin. Desired zone
temperature is set by adjusting the individual Temperature Selectors. The selector
range is approximately 65ºF (18ºC) to 85ºF (30ºC).
The packs produce an air temperature that satisfies the zone which requires the
most cooling. Zone temperature is controlled by introducing the proper amount of
trim air to the zone supply ducts. The quantity of trim air is regulated by individual
trim air modulating valves.
During single pack operation with the TRIM AIR selected ON, zone temperature
is controlled the same as during two pack operation. During single pack operation
with the TRIMAIR selected OFF. the pack attempts to produce an air temperature
to satisfy the average temperature demands of all three zones.
If air in a zone supply duct overheats, the associated amber ZONE TEMP light
illuminates, and the associated trim air modulating valve closes. The trim air
modulating valve may be reopened after the duct has cooled by pushing the TRIP
RESET Switch.
Zone Temperature Control Modes
The left electronic controller controls the aft cabin zone and provides backup
control for the flight deck. The right controller controls the forward cabin zone and
provides primary control for the flight deck.
Failure of the primary flight deck temperature control will cause an automatic
switch to the back up control and will illuminate the CONT CAB amber ZONE
TEMP light upon Master Caution Recall. Failure of both the primary and standby
controls will illuminate the lights automatically.
Failure of the forward or aft cabin temperature control will cause the associated
trim air modulating valve to close. The Temperature Selectors operate normally.
but the Temperature Selector settings of the two passenger cabin zones will be
averaged. The amber ZONE TEMP light will illuminate upon Master Caution
Recall to indicate failure of the associated zone control.
Unbalanced Pack Temperature Control Mode
Any failure affecting the supply of trim air will cause the temperature control
system to control both packs independent]y. If flight deck trim air is lost, the left
pack will provide conditioned air to the flight deck at the selected temperature and
the right pack will satisfy the demand of the passenger zone which requires the
most cooling. If a passenger cabin zone trim air, or all trim air is lost, the forward
and aft zone temperature demands will be averaged for control of the right pack.
Ifany individual zone is switched OFF, the Temperature Selector setting will be
ignored by the temperature control system.

Pressurization System Introduction
Cabin pressurization is controlled during all phases of airplane operation by the
cabin pressure control system. The cabin pressure control system includes two
identical automatic controllers available by selecting AUTO or ALTN and à
manual (MAN) pilot-controlled mode.
The system uses bleed air supplied to and distributed by the air conditioning
system. Pressurization and ventilation are controlled by modulating the outflow
valve and the overboard exhaust valve.
Pressure Relief Valves
Two pressure relief valves provide safety pressure relief by limiting the
differential pressure to a maximum of 9.1 psi. A negative relief valve prevents
external atmospheric pressure from exceeding internal cabin pressure.
Cabin Pressure Controller
Cabin altitude is normally rate-controlled by the cabin pressure controller up to a
cabin altitude of 8.000 feet at the airplane maximum certified ceiling of 41,000
feet.
The cabin pressure controller controls cabin pressure in the following modes:
* AUTO- Automatic pressurization control; the normal mode of operation.
Uses DC motor.
* ALTN- Automatic pressurization control; the alternate mode of
operation. Uses DC motor.
+ MAN- Manual control of the system using DC motor.
The air data inertial reference units (ADIRUs) provides ambient static pressure,
baro corrected altitude, non corrected altitude and calibrated airspeed to both
automatic controllers. The ADIRUs receive baromstric corrections from the
Captain's and First Officer's BARO reference selectors.
The automatic controllers also receive throttle position from both stall
management computers and signals from the air/ground sensors.

Auto Mode Operation
The AUTO system consists of two identical controllers, with one controller
alternately sequenced as the primary operational controller for each new flight.
The other automatic controller is immediately available as a backup.
In the AUTO or ALTN mode, the pressurization control panel is used to preset two
altitudes into the auto controllers:
* FLT ALT (flight or cruise altitude).
* LAND ALT (landing or destination airport altitude).
Takeoff airport altitude (actually cabin altitude) is fed into the auto controllers at
all times when on the ground.
The air/ground safety sensor signals whether the airplane is on the ground or in
the air. On the ground and at lower power settings, the cabin is depressurized by
driving the outflow valve to the full open position.
The cabin begins to pressurize on the ground at higher power settings. The
controller modulates the outflow valve toward close, slightly pressurizing the
cabin. This ground pressurization of the cabin makes the transition to pressurized
flight more gradual for the passengers and crew, and also gives the system better
response to ground effect pressure changes during takeoff.
In the air. the auto controller maintains a proportional pressure differential
between airplane and cabin altitude. By increasing the altitude at a rate
proportional to the airplane climb rate, cabin altitude change is held to the
minimum rate required.
An amber OFF SCHED DESCENT light illuminates if the airplane begins to
descend without having reached the preset cruise altitude; for example, a flight
aborted in climb and returning to the takeoff airport. The controller programs the
cabin to land at the takeoff field elevation without further pilot inputs. If the FLT
ALT indicator is changed, the automatic abort capability to the original takeoff
field elevation is lost.
Page 24
Boeing B737 NG - Systems Summary [Air Systems]
The cruise mode is activated when the airplane climbs to within 0.25 psi of the
selected FLT ALT. During cruise the controller maintains the cabin altitude
slightly below the selected LAND ALT, if the differential pressure between the
selected LAND ALT and FLT ALT is less than or equal to 8.35 psid above 37, 000
feet, 7.80 psid with the FLT ALT between 28,000 and 37,000 feet, and 7.45 psid
with FLT ALT less than 28,000 feet. If the differential pressure between the
selected LAND ALT and FLT ALT is greater than these values, the controller
maintains a pressure differential of 8.35 psid above 37,000 feet, 7.80 psid with the
FLT ALT between 28.000 and 37.000 feet, and 7.45 psid with FLT ALT less than
28,000 feet. Deviations from flight altitude can cause the pressure differential to
vary as the controller modulates the outflow valve to maintain a constant cabin
altitude.
The descent mode is activated when the airplane descends 0.25 psi below the
selected FLT ALT. The cabin begins a proportional descent to slightly below the
selected LAND ALT. The controller programs the cabin to land slightly
pressurized so that rapid changes in altitude during approach result in minimum
cabin pressure changes.
While taxiing in, the controller drives the outflow valve slowly to the full open
position depressurizing the cabin.
An amber AUTO FALL light illuminates if any of the following conditions occurs:
* Loss of DC power
* Controller fault
* Outflow valve control fault
* Excessive differential pressure (> 8.75 psi)*
* Excessive rate of cabin pressure change (+2000 sea level feet/minute)*
* High cabin altitude (above 15.800 feet).*
*If controller is not responding properly
With illumination of the AUTO FAIL light, the pressure control automatically
transfers to the other auto controller (ALTN mods).
Moving the pressurization mode selector to the ALTN position extinguishes the
AUTO FAIL light, however the ALTN light remains illuminated to indicate single
channel operation.
High Altitude Landing
[Option - High Altitude Landing System]
When the high altitude landing system is engaged and the actual landing altitude
is set, the controller brings the cabin altitude to the landing airport elevation when
the descent mode is activated. Upon departure from a high altitude airport, the
system retums to normal operation as the cabin descends through 8,000 feet.

Manual control of the cabin altitude is used if both the AUTO and ALTN modes

position on the outflow valve position indicator. A separate DC motor, powered
by the DC standby system, drives the outflow valve at a slower rate than the
automatic modes. Outflow valve full range of motion takes up to 20 seconds.
