c. Bleed Air Valve Switches. The bleed air
flow control unit shutoff valve and pneumatic bleed air
shutoff
valves
are
controlled
by
two
switches,
placarded LEFT and RIGHT BLEED AIR VALVES
OPEN / ENVIR OFF / INSTR & ENVIR OFF, located
on the copilot's subpanel. When set to the OPEN
position, both the environmental flow control unit
shutoff valve and the pneumatic shutoff valve are
open. When set to the ENVIR OFF position, the
environmental flow control unit shutoff valve is closed,
and the pneumatic bleed air valve is open. In the
INSTR & ENVIR OFF position, both are closed. For
maximum cooling on the ground, place the bleed air
valve switches in the ENVIR OFF position.
d. Cabin Temperature Mode Selector Switch.
A switch on the copilot's subpanel, placarded CABIN
TEMP MODE OFF / AUTO / MAN COOL / MAN
HEAT, controls cockpit and cabin heating and air
conditioning. When the cabin temperature mode-
selector switch is set to the AUTO position, the heating
and
air
conditioning
systems
are
automatically
controlled. Control signals from the temperature
control box are transmitted to the bleed air heat
exchanger bypass valves. Here, the bypass valves
controlling the amount of air bypassing the heat
exchangers regulate the temperature of the air flowing
to the cabin. When the temperature of the cabin air
has reached the temperature setting of the cabin
temperature
control
rheostat,
the
automatic
temperature control allows hot air to bypass the air -to-
air exchangers, admitting hot air into the cabin. When
the bypass valves are in the fully closed position,
allowing no air to bypass the heat exchangers, the air
conditioner begins to operate, providing additional
cooling.
e. Cabin Temperature Control Rheostat. A
control knob on the copilot's subpanel, placarded
CABIN TEMP INCR, provides regulation of cabin
temperature when the cabin temperature mode-
selector switch is set to the AUTO position. A
temperature sensing unit in the cabin, in conjunction
with the setting of the cabin temperature control
rheostat, initiates a heat or cool command to the
temperature controller for the desired cockpit or cabin
compartment environment.
f. Manual Temperature Control Switch. A
switch on the copilot's subpanel, placarded MANUAL
TEMP INCR / DECR, controls cockpit and cabin
compartment temperature with the cabin temperature
mode selector switch set to the MAN HEAT or MAN
HEAT
or
MAN
COOL position. The manual
temperature control switch controls the cockpit and
cabin temperature by providing a means of manually
changing the amount that the bleed air bypass valves
are opened. To increase cabin temperature, the
switch is held to the INCR position. To decrease cabin
temperature, the switch is held to the DECR position.
Approximately 30 seconds per valve is required to
drive the bypass valves to the fully open or fully closed
position. Only one valve moves at a time.
g. Forward Vent Blower Switch. The forward
vent blower is controlled by a switch placarded VENT
BLOWER HIGH / LO / AUTO, located on the copilot's
subpanel. In the AUTO position, the fan will run at low
speed. The forward vent blower will not operate when
the CABIN TEMP MODE selector switch is set to the
OFF position.
h. Aft Vent Blower Switch. The aft vent blower
is controlled by the switch placarded AFT BLOWER
ON / OFF, located on the copilot's subpanel. The
blower operates continuously when the switch is
placed in the ON position with the air conditioner
compressor operating.

2-67. AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM.
a. Description. Cabin air conditioning is
provided by a refrigerant-gas, vapor-cycle refrigeration
system, Figure 2-26. The system consists of a belt-
driven engine-mounted compressor, installed on the
#2 engine accessory section, refrigerant plumbing, N1
speed switch, high and low pressure protection
