(e) Do not cross-connect tester to the airplane systems (i.e., pitot input to the pilot's system and static input to the
copilot's system or vice versa).
(f) Do not apply pitot pressure to the static system. Use vacuum only.
(g) Do not disconnect any lines while test pressures are applied. Slowly bleed input pressures to ambient before
disconnecting lines.
1 Maximum recommended altitude rate of change is 6000 feet per minute.
2 Maximum recommended airspeed rate of change is 200 knots per minute.
(h) Control pitot system pressure or vacuum to maintain airspeed between 100 to 300 knots. Do not exceed 300 knots or
fall below 100 knots except where specifically indicated during tests. Do not allow altimeter indication to fall more than
1000 feet below sea level or higher than 53,000 feet except where specifically indicated during tests.
(i) Do not leak test pitot and static system using soap and water or any liquid.
NOTE: Each static line terminates at two static port outlets, located on the left and right side of the
forward lower fuselage. When testing a static system, use air tight pressure tape to seal
opposite static port surface(s), which would otherwise be vented to atmosphere, resulting in
invalid test results.
(3) Pitot and Static Systems Visual Inspection.
(a) Examine the lines, tubes and plumbing for the conditions that follow:
• Any evidence of damage
• Correct installation
• Components that touch or rub each other
• Distortion or restriction
• Deterioration and cracks
• Contamination and dirty components
(b) Repair, clean or replace components as necessary.
(4) Drain Static System.
(a) Locate the static system drain valves.
NOTE: The drain valves are near the rudder pedals at FS 112.00 at approximately floor level on each
side of the cockpit.
(b) Drain moisture (if any) from the drain valves.
1 Lift and hold each drain valve lever open until all moisture is drained from the system.
2 Return each drain valve lever to the closed position.
(5) Pitot and Static Systems Leak Checks.
CAUTION: During test, do not allow airspeed indication to be below 100 knots or above 355 knots, altimeter
indication to go more than 1000 feet below sea level or higher than 53,000 feet, or the rate-of-climb
to exceed 6000 feet per minute.
(a) Do not leak test the pitot/static system with soap and water or any liquid.
(b) Connect an air data test set to the left static system (aft upper left and aft lower right static ports). Refer to Pitot/Static
Systems - Removal/Installation, Figure 402, and Pitot/Static Systems - Description and Operation, Figure 1.
1 Connect the test set static hose to the aft upper left static port and cover the aft lower right static port with airtight
tape.
NOTE: If TCAS or MST-67A Transponder is installed, test set must be connected to both pitot and
static systems or a failure may be noted.
(c) Connect the test set to the left pitot system.
(d) Ensure that the circuit breakers are engaged according to Table 601. The other circuit breakers may be engaged or
disengaged as desired.
