QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The Tronair AGE17073A ground test tool is used to back-drive the Ram Air Turbine (RAT) during ground maintenance procedures. This allows technicians to simulate in-flight RAT operation while the aircraft remains on the ground. It plays a critical role in verifying system performance and functionality before returning the aircraft to service.
This RAT ground test tool requires a compatible hydraulic cart capable of delivering approximately 16.5 GPM at 3,000 PSI. The hydraulic cart supplies the power needed to drive the turbine during testing. Using the correct hydraulic source ensures accurate and safe test conditions.
The AGE17073A ground test motor is intended for use by trained and qualified aircraft maintenance technicians only. Operators must follow the applicable Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) and RAT manufacturer procedures. Proper training is essential to ensure safe operation and accurate test results.
The Tronair RAT ground test tool connects directly to the RAT generator interface using a splined shaft and adapter assembly. This design ensures proper engagement and alignment during operation. Secure fastening is required to maintain stability throughout the testing process.
This ground test motor is designed for use with aviation phosphate ester hydraulic fluids, specifically Type IV or Type V. Using the correct fluid type helps maintain system compatibility and performance. It also ensures compliance with aircraft maintenance standards.
No, additional hose lengths are not recommended when using the AGE17073A ground test tool. Extending the hose length can reduce performance and affect test accuracy. The included 20-foot hoses are designed to deliver optimal flow and pressure.
Operators should always follow the airframe and RAT manufacturer’s instructions when performing ground tests. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) must be used, and all hydraulic connections should be verified before operation. Misuse or improper setup can lead to equipment damage or personal injury.
The AGE17073A ground test tool does not include built-in controls or monitoring systems. All control of the test process is managed through the connected hydraulic cart and aircraft procedures. This design keeps the tool simple and focused on its primary function.
The Tronair AGE17073A is supplied with a durable storage case designed for both shipping and storage. It should be stored indoors and protected from moisture to prevent damage. Proper storage helps extend the tool's service life.
The AGE17073A ground test motor requires minimal scheduled maintenance but should be inspected regularly. Key inspection points include the splined shaft for wear and hose connections for leaks. Maintenance personnel should have a basic understanding of hydraulic systems.
