2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION.
The static and total air pressure system gets air pressure inputs from three Primary Static and Total Air Pressure System.
pitot probes and six static ports on the airplane fuselage. The two primary pitot probes connect to two pitot air data modules (ADMs).
Two pairs of the primary static ports connect to two static ADMs.
These are the two types of air pressure :
The ADMs change the air pressures to electrical signals and sends them to the
- Static air pressure is the ambient air pressure around the airplane, air data inertial reference units (ADIRU) on ARINC 429 data buses.
- Pitot air pressure is the air pressure on the pitot probe tube as a result These signals are used to calculate flight parameters such as airspeed and
of the forward motion of the airplane. altitude.
The static and total air pressure system has these components : Each pitot line and each static line has a drain fitting.

All of the ADMs have the same part number and are interchangeable.
The length of the pressure lines and the number of connectors are a minimum.
The left and right static ports are connected together. This gives an average
ambient air pressure to the ADMs.
Pressure Lines.
The pressure lines from the auxiliary pitot probe and the alternate static ports
go to the standby altimeter/airspeed indicator. The pressure lines from the
alternate static ports also go to the cabin differential pressure indicator.
The alternate static ports are also connected together to give average ambient
pressure.

Physical Description.
The pitot probe port points forward to measure pitot pressure.
A strut moves the probe several inches from the airplane skin to minimize
airflow turbulence effects. A base plate contains the electrical and pressure
connectors. A gasket is between the probe base and the airplane structure to
form a pressure seal.

Operation.
The lower part of the drain contains a valve covered by a bayonet cap.
To drain the pitot-static line, remove the cap and insert the valve depressor on
the cap into the valve. The liquid in the sump drains by gravity when you push
the valve.
