HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

29-1. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM —DESCRIPTION

The helicopter hydraulic system decreases the forcerequired to operate the flight controls. The pressurizedhydraulic fluid and the hydraulic jacks (servoactuators) move the linkages that control the flightattitude and direction. The force that the pilot puts onthe collective, cyclic or the directional controls movesonly the applicable servo valve. This force is muchless than what is required to operate the controlsdirectly. This "hydraulic boost" operates on all thecontrols: the cyclic control stick (forward, aft, andlateral), the collective control stick and the directionalcontrol pedals. There is one collective, one directionaland two cyclic servo actuators.

If a full electrical power failure occurs, the hydraulicsystem is always on. If an hydraulic power failureoccurs, the pilot can operate the controls directly. This"boost off" condition makes sure that the helicopter isalways in the pilot control. During the "boost off"condition, a pressure switch on the hydraulic manifoldmakes the HYDRAULIC SYSTEM annunciator on thecaution/warning/advisory panel come on. The pilot hasa visual indication of the pressure failure.

To turn the hydraulic system off, electrical power mustbe supplied to the solenoid valve. The HYD SYSswitch controls the hydraulic solenoid valve. When thehydraulic system solenoid valve is not energized (theHYD SYS switch is in the ON position or there is anelectrical failure), the pressurized hydraulic fluid flowsto the four servo actuators. When the hydraulic systemsolenoid valve is energized (the HYD SYS switch is inthe OFF position), the pressurized hydraulic fluid flowsto the reservoir and not through the servo actuators(Figure 29-1, Figure 29-3 and Chapter 98 for thehydraulic system wiring diagram).

The helicopter hydraulic system uses hydraulic fluid(Chapter 12). The system is filled at the reservoirassembly. To help prevent contamination when thehydraulic system is serviced, the reservoir assemblyhas a screen below the cover. A sight gauge isinstalled on the left side of the reservoir that will showif the reservoir needs to be serviced (Chapter 12). Youcan find service data on the decals that are on thereservoir assembly and the maintenance platform that

is forward of the hydraulic filters. The caught air is bledout of the system automatically, but if you want tobleed the air yourself, a procedure is given in thischapter. The hydraulic system components include:

• the reservoir assembly (9, Figure 29-1)

• the hydraulic pump (10)

• the return line filter assembly (5)

• the pressure line filter assembly (6)

• the solenoid valve (8)

• the relief valve (7)

• the return coupling half (3)

• the pressure coupling half (4)

• the hydraulic system manifold (1)

• the hydraulic hose and tube assemblies

• the servo actuators (cyclic and collective) (18)and the actuator support (17)

• the servo actuator (directional) (19) and theactuator support (20)

The reservoir assembly (9) supplies hydraulic fluid tothe transmission operated hydraulic pump (10). Thehydraulic pump pressurizes the hydraulic fluid to 1000PSI (-25/+50 PSI) (6895 kPa (-172/+344 kPa)) andsends it to the smaller pressure coupling half (4).

The hydraulic fluid passes through the pressurecoupling half (4) and flows to the pressure line filterassembly (6). The coupling halves are installed tomake maintenance tasks and the tests easier. You canconnect the hydraulic test stand on the couplinghalves, there is one on the pressure line and one onthe return line.

The pressure line filter assembly (6) removesdangerous particles (particles larger than 15 microns).The fluid continues to flow to the relief valve (7).

If the hydraulic system pressure increases to 1225 PSI(8446 kPa), the relief valve (7) opens. The hydraulicfluid is sent to the return line filter assembly (5) andthen back into the reservoir assembly (9). Thisprevents damage to the solenoid valve (8) and to thecyclic and collective servo actuators (18). If thehydraulic system pressure is correct, the hydraulicfluid continues to flow to the solenoid valve (8).

The solenoid valve (8) is controlled by the HYD SYSswitch that is installed on the overhead console. If theHYD SYS switch is in the OFF position, the hydraulicfluid is sent to the return line filter assembly (5) andthen to the reservoir assembly (9). If the HYD SYSswitch is in the ON position, the hydraulic fluidcontinues to flow to the hydraulic system manifold (1).

The hydraulic system manifold (1) distributes thehydraulic fluid to the servo valves. The servo valvefollows pilot input. If the pilot input is to extend theservo actuator (18), the servo valve sends sufficientfluid to the actuator piston to extend the actuatoraccordingly. During the actuator movement, thehydraulic fluid leaves the compressing side of thepiston and flows to the system return line.

A switch (24) on the hydraulic system manifold (1)monitors the hydraulic pressure at the manifold. If thepressure is low, an annunciator on the caution/warning/advisory panel comes on. Refer to Chapter 96for the operation description of the switch (24).

The system return line goes to the return line filterassembly (5). The return line filter assembly (5)removes dangerous particles (particles larger than 15microns). If the buildup of particles clogs the filter, thebypass valve will open. The bypass valve opens whenthe pressure on the input side is 100 PSI (690 kPa)higher than on the output side. The pressure line filterassembly (6) does not have a bypass valve. From thereturn line filter assembly (5), the fluid returns to thereservoir assembly (9). Refer to Chapter 5 for theinspection intervals and to Chapter 12 for the servicingprocedures.

29-5. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM — LEAKAGELIMITS

This section shows the permitted external leakage ofthe hydraulic system components that are in serviceon the helicopter and some procedures on how tomeasure the external leakage.

29-6. LEAKAGE LIMITS — SCOPE

The leakage limits specified are for the components inthe helicopter hydraulic system. The intent is to keepthe replacement of serviceable hydraulic componentsto a minimum. These leakage limits can be differentfrom the leakage limits that are used for new oroverhauled components. Do not use these leakagelimits to accept or reject components for benchfunctional tests or for systems on a new helicopters.These leakage limits are not applicable toindependently closed compartment hydraulics, suchas the viscous dampers or liquid springs.

29-7. LEAKAGE LIMITS — CAUSES OFLEAKAGE

Some leakage is correct for the reasons that follow:

• a film of hydraulic fluid is found on the metalsurfaces, such as piston rods and istransmitted through the seals, this film isnecessary to lubricate the seals

• the pressure and the temperature varies andcauses distortion of the seals

• the seals get a permanent form after sometime

29-8. LEAKAGE LIMITS — LEAKAGE TYPES

Leakage rate is established by a quantity of fluid lostversus a period of time. Accumulation of fluid incavities or on flat surfaces may appear worst than theactual leakage rate. The leak has to be evaluated asper Table 29-11.

There are two types of external leakages in thehydraulic system:

Acceptable leakage (permitted leakage).More than permitted leakage rate is based on theexceedance of Table 29-11.

It is also possible to have a large quantity ofcomponents with permitted leakages. The sum of theleakages can be grouped and considered as morethan permitted leakage.

1. More than permitted leakage – Fluid leakagesurpasses the limit when:

• the leakage causes the fluid in the reservoirassembly to decrease to an unserviceablelevel during regular operation

• the leakage can start a fire

• the leakage will change the airworthiness ofthe helicopter

2. Permitted leakage – Permitted leakage is verysmall and has no change on the airworthiness or theoperation of the helicopter. The correction of theleakage is not worth the maintenance time.

29-9. LEAKAGE LIMITS — LEAKAGE CHECKS

The maximum leak rate values are listed inTable 29-11. If the hydraulic system was off (in a nonpressurized condition) for some time. Do not do theleak rate tests immediately after you start the system.Start the system and operate the components severaltimes. Clean all the leaked hydraulic fluid before youstart the test.

1. When you cannot see if the component hasleakage, measure the leakage on a flat surface. Usethe structure below the component or put a panelbelow the component for this reason. Clean thesurface, put one drop of fluid on the area, and let itbecome stable. Make a mark around the area with agrease pencil and clean off the fluid. Pressurize andoperate the component. Compare the permittedleakage of the component from Table 29-11 to theidentified one in the drop area.

2. When you can see the leakage of a component,pressurize and operate the component until a dropfalls. Continue to operate the component and measurethe time until the subsequent drop falls to find theleakage rate.

3. For the tests that require long time, clean thesurface and let it dry. Do not use solvent. After youoperate the system, use a blotter or a white cloth.

29-29. FILTER ASSEMBLIES —DESCRIPTION

The return line and pressure line filter assemblies (5and 6, Figure 29-1) are installed on a bracket near thereservoir assembly (9), on the left side of the cabinroof. One filter is installed in the pressure line and onein the return line. The two filters have a mechanicalimpending clogged condition red indicator button (5,Figure 29-9). This indicator extends when thedifferential pressure across the filter is 70 ±10 PSI(482 ±69 kPa). The indicator does not work whenhydraulic fluid temperature is less than 35°F (2°C).This prevents incorrect clogged indications. If thehydraulic fluid is cold, the viscosity will change and ahigher differential pressure across the filter will becorrect. If the hydraulic fluid temperature is more than35°F (2°C) the indicator will show the correct conditionof the filter, even if the ambient temperature is lessthan 35°F (2°C).

The return line filter assembly (5, Figure 29-1) is abypass type. The bypass valve is inside the body ofthe return line filter assembly (5). When the differentialpressure across the filter is more than 100 ±25 PSI(689 ±172 kPa), the bypass valve opens. Pressurizedhydraulic oil is then sent directly to the reservoir. Whenthe differential pressure decreases to 65 PSI(448 kPa), the bypass valve closes. The hydraulic oilwill then go through the filter to the reservoir.

29-68. CYCLIC AND COLLECTIVE SERVOACTUATORS — DESCRIPTION

The actuator support (21, Figure 29-15) is installed onthe cabin roof, forward of the transmission. Theactuator support is an attachment point for the threeservo actuators (1) and their related hardware. The

center servo actuator is for the collective control andthe two outboard servo actuators are for the cycliccontrol. Each actuator has a 5-inch (127-mm) traveland an effected piston area of 0.675 inch (17.1 mm).

Each servo actuator has a servo valve (3,Figure 29-16). The servo valve is a closed center,four-way valve. The maximum leakage out of thereturn port with the valve at neutral position and noload is 1.52 cubic-inch per minute (25 cc/min). Thevalve operating load will not be more than 10 ounces(2.8 N) force with 1000 PSI (6895 kPa) pressure. Theservo valve is the primary hydraulic control device.

The servo valve contains a closed center three-waybypass valve (5). If the bypass valve is at neutral,there will be no hydraulic flow to the servo ports. Aforce of 15 to 30 pounds (67 to 133 N) on the inputlever (7) is necessary to operate the bypass valve. Ifthe servo valve spool (6) seizes, the bypass valvespool keeps hydraulic control.

If the hydraulic system fails, control is mechanicallymaintained by the caught hydraulic fluid in the actuator(9). This is done by the three check valves (4) and thesequence/thermal relief valve (10). With the hydraulicfluid caught in the actuator, such that it can move fromone side of the piston (8) to the other, full boost offcontrol is kept.

The sequence/thermal relief valve opens when systempressure is 100 to 188 PSI (689 to 1296 kPa). Whenthe sequence/thermal relief valve opens, the actuatorreturn ports are connected to the hydraulic returnlines. In the case of hydraulic failure, the sequencevalve closes and the hydraulic fluid on the return sideof the actuator is caught in the actuator. This function,along with the check valves give full boost off control.The sequence/thermal relief valve has a thermal relieffunction. When the system is off, oil is caught in theactuator. If the ambient temperature rises, thermalexpansion will cause the pressure in the actuator toincrease. If the pressure increases to 125 to 200 PSI(862 to 1379 kPa), the sequence/thermal relief valveopens and hydraulic fluid bleeds to the hydraulic returnline.

When the pressure at the input port is about 575 PSI(3964 kPa) lower than the pressure in the servo valve,the differential relief valve (2) opens. This bleedspressure to the return line. It protects the servoactuator and the valve from the forces that are on thecontrol surfaces.

29-72. DIRECTIONAL CONTROL SERVOACTUATOR — DESCRIPTION

The directional control servo actuator (4, Figure 29-17)isolates the pilot from the aero forces that are on thetail rotor. This gives the pilot a constant feel,regardless of the helicopter attitude or wind direction.

The directional control servo actuator is different fromthe cyclic and collective servo actuators (1,Figure 29-15). The directional control servo actuatorhas an effective piston area of 0.368 inch (9.35 mm).This decreases the force that the servo actuator canmake.

The instructions for the cleaning and inspection of theactuator support (23) are in paragraph 29-70. Thedirectional control servo actuator has the samehydraulics off property as the collective and the cyclicservo actuators. If there is a full hydraulic failure, thetail rotor pitch will be in pilot control.
