1 DESCRIPTION

1.1 Introduction

 There are two versions of the ADTS 405, a 19", 6U high (10½”) rack-mounted unit and a

flight line unit.

 The ADTS 405 is a rack-mounted system and, with external pressure and vacuum supplies

connected, provides measurement and control for leak checks, calibration accuracy
checks and functional tests of air data instruments, components and systems.

 The ADTS 405F is a self-contained flight-line air data test system providing complete

pressure and vacuum measuring and control for on-aircraft sense and leak testing,
calibration accuracy checks and functional tests of air data instruments, components and
systems. The unit comprises an electronics rack and pump rack enclosed in a high density,
polyethylene case.

 The ADTS 405 displays and operates in either units of pressure measurement or aeronautical

units. In the control mode, the rate that the pressures change towards new set-points can
be controlled in true aeronautical rate units.

 There are two independent pneumatic channels connect to the aircraft or instrument

systems, one for static and one for pitot. They can be operated as measure only channels
with leak testing facility or each can be control channels producing true pressure
conditions for altitude and airspeed.

 To protect sensitive instruments and equipment a `ground' facility automatically and

safely controls both channels to atmospheric pressure at the previously entered rates of
change and then informs the operator when both channels are safely at `ground'.

 The operator interface is either an ATEX certified hand terminal connected to the front

panel or the key pad and display on the front panel. Both provide information and control
selections for the user through the keys and display. The unit can also be controlled
remotely using the IEEE 488 communications interface. The front panel contains the
operate switch and a mimic panel with LED indicators showing the operation of the
solenoid-operated pneumatic valves.

 The pump rack, on the ADTS 405F, produces pressure and vacuum supplies for the

electronics rack and for external services. Located on the front panel, the external
connectors provide for external pressure and vacuum supplies (EXT PRESSURE and EXT
VACUUM) and an auxiliary static (vacuum) output (AUX). The rack is cooled by a fan located
under a protective cover on the front panel. The power supply connection for the ADTS
405F is located on the front panel.



For single pipe testing of airspeed indicators or similar, requiring only Pt (pitot), connect
the UUT to Pt (pitot). The Ps (static) output must be left open to atmosphere (no
blanking cap) to provide a reference pressure.

Note: The Pt ONLY mode of operation must be used in this configuration.

 For single pipe testing of altimeters or similar, requiring only Ps (static), connect the

UUT to Ps (static). The Pt (pitot) output should be left with a blanking cap fitted.

Note: The Ps ONLY mode of operation must be used in this configuration.

2.5 Positioning of the ADTS 405

 It is important that the position of the ADTS 405 in relation to the components under

test is known. An altitude correction must be made to allow for the difference in height
between the reference level, indicated on the mimic panel, and the components under
test. The Reference section contains details of altitude correction (SETUP, ALTITUDE).
