(3) PITOT AND VACUUM SYSTEMS. (See figure 169 )

Figure 169 - INSTRUMENT PITOT AND VACUUM SYSTEMS

Figure 169 - INSTRUMENT PITOT AND VACUUM SYSTEMS

a) A pitot static and a pitot pressure line extend from a pitot head at the top of the vertical stabilizer along the left side of the fuselage to tees behind the pilot's instrument panel. A line from each tee connects to the air-speed indicator and altimeter on the panel. A drain tee is installed in each line aft of Station 75.

(b) The vacuum system consists of lines which extend from vacuum pumps on each engine through the nacelle and inner wing to a "Y" fitting at the right side of the fuselage. From this point they continue forward along the right side of the fuselage to the suction regulator behind the instrument panel. Three lines extend from the regulator to the throttle valve, flight indicator and turn indicator, respectively. The bank and turn indicator and suction gage obtain vacuum from the throttle valve and flight indicator, respectively.

(4) COMPASSES. - There are two compasses in the pilot's compartment. One is the magnetic type and the other is a radio compass. See paragraph 22, this section, for information on the radio compass.

(5) TACHOMETER GENERATOR (See figure 164.) - A small generator mounted on the fuel pump accessory drive on the rear of the engine supplies the necessary electrical current to actuate the tachometer.

(6) VACUUM PUMP. (See figure 162.) - To supply vacuum for the operation of gyroscopically actuated instruments, a vane-type vacuum pump operates in the oil system. The vacuum pump takes its small oil requirements from the engine accessory section on which it is mounted by four stud bolts. The pump is gear driven as an engine accessory. Incorporated in the vacuum line to the instruments are four valves. A suction relief valve is located at the engine accessory section forward of the fire wall on the inside of the nacelle. It controls Dow in one direction in the event of backfire of the engine.
