quired to maintain the temperature selected by the cabin
temperature control rheostat.
(5) Cabin temperature control rheostat. A
control knob placarded CABIN TEMP INCR, located on
the overhead control panel (fig. 2-18), provides
regulation of cabin temperature when the cabin
temperature mode selector switch is set to the AUTO
position, or the A/C COLD OPN position. A e
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 mission
avionics compartment environment.
(6)
Manual temperature control switch. A
switch placarded MANUAL TEMP INCR DECR, located
on the overhead control panel (fig. 2-18), controls
cockpit and mission avionics compartment temperature
with the cabin temperature mode selector switch set to
the MAN HEAT positions. The manual temperature
control switch controls cockpit and mission avionics
temperature by providing a means of manually changing
the amount that the bleed air bypass valves are opened
or closed. 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.
(7)
Forward vent blower switch. The forward
vent blower is controlled by a switch placarded VENT
BLOWER AUTO LO HI, located on the overhead control
panel (fig. 2-18). In the auto position the fan will run at
low speed except when the cabin temperature mode
selector switch is set to the OFF position, in this case
the blower will not operate.
(8)
Aft vent blower switch. The aft vent
blower is controlled by a switch placarded AFT VENT
BLOWER OFF AUTO ON, located on the overhead
control panel (fig. 2-18). The single speed blower
operates automatically through the cabin temperature
mode selector switch when the aft vent blower switch is
placed in the AUTO position. The blower runs
continuously when the switch is placed in the ON
position, In the OFF position, the blower will not operate.

2-68. AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM.
a.
Description. Cabin air conditioning is provided
by a refrigerant gas vapor cycle refrigeration system
consisting of a belt driven, engine mounted compressor,
installed on the #2 engine accessory pad, refrigerant
plumbing, N1 speed switch, high and low pressure
protection switches, condenser coil, condenser blower,
forward and aft evaporator, receiver dryer, expansion
valve and a bypass valve. The plumbing from the
compressor is routed through the right inboard wing
leading edge to the fuselage and then forward to the
condenser coil, receiver-dryer, expansion valve, bypass
valve, and forward evaporator, which are located in the
nose of the aircraft. A circuit breaker placarded AIR
COND CONTR, located on the overhead circuit breaker
panel (fig. 226), protects the compressor clutch circuit.
(1)
Forward
evaporator.
The
forward
evaporator and blower supplies the cockpit, forward
ceiling outlets, and forward floor outlets. The forward
evaporator blower has a high speed which can be
selected by setting the VENT BLOWER switch, located
on the overhead control panel (fig. 2-18), to the HI
position. The forward vent blower is protected by a
circuit breaker located on the DC power distribution
panel, located in the forward equipment bay.
(2)
Aft evaporator. The aft evaporator and
blower are located in the fuselage center aisle
equipment bay aft of the rear spar. Environmental air is
circulated through the evaporator in either manual or
automatic control mode. The rear evaporator supplies
the aft ceiling outlets, rear floor outlets, and toilet
compartment. Rear evaporator blower is protected by a
circuit breaker located on the DC power distribution
panel in the lower equipment bay.
(3)
High and low pressure limit switches.
High and low pressure limit switches are provided to
prevent compressor operation beyond operational
