AIR CONDITIONING
2A-21-10: General
The air conditioning system for the Gulfstrearn IV is designed to provide all areas within
the pressure vessel vrith a safe and comfortable temperature and pressure (cabin
altitude) throughout the aircraft's operating envelope. The system employs a 'dual pack"
concept and. although each pack is controlled separately, failure of one pack still leaves
the remaining pack capable of supplying conditioned air to both cabin and cockpit. if
required.
To achieve this function, the air conditioning system provides the flight crew with a
means to accomplish the following:
• Control. regulate and monitor the amount of conditioned air within the pressure
vessel to achieve and maintain selected or preprogrammed cabin pressure
(altitude), while still allowing exchange of the air at regular intervals for occupant
comfort. This is accomplished by modulation of a single outflow valve. The outflow
valve is automatically controlled by the cabin pressure controller in the normal
operating mode, but can be controlled manually.
• Select and control bleed air entering and exiting two environmental control system
refrigeration pack assemblies, referred to as the Left and Right ECS Packs.
Source air into the ECS Packs is provided to a bleed air manifold by either
external air or APU air (while on the ground), or by the aircraft's engines (on
ground or in flight). Through use of an isolation valve. air from the bleed air
manifold can be directed to either ECS Pack. This results in a constant mass of
conditioned air for all areas within the pressure vessel.
• Control the temperature of conditioned air delivered to the cockpit and cabin areas
(referred to as zones) within the pressure vessel. This is done using the two ECS
packs to cool incoming air and deliver it to a conditioned air manifold. Valves mix
hot bleed air with cold conditioned air to modulate the temperature of the air
coming from the manifold into the pressure vessel. Cockpit control and indication
is also provided.
The Air Conditioning system is divided into the following subsystems:
• 2A-21-20: Pressurization Control System
• 2A-21-30: Airflow and Temperature Control System
2A-21-20: Pressurization System
1. General Description:
The pressurization system controls. regulates and monitors the amount of
conditioned air within the pressure vessel to achieve and maintain a safe and
comfortable cabin pressure (cabin altitude), up to the airplane's maximum
operating altitude. While normally preprogrammed. cabin altitude can also be
controlled manually. Cabin conditioned air is also exchanged at regular intervals
for occupant comfort.
With airflow supplied from the ECS packs. the pressurization system maintains
cabin altitude by regulating the amount of air exhausted overboard through a
single outflow valve. Once the flight crew has programmed the system. operation
is virtually automatic.
The pressurization system is capable of maintaining a cabin altitude of 6.550 feet
at a maximum inflight altitude of 45.000 feet. Sea level cabin pressure can be

maintained to a maximum inflight altitude of 22,000 feet. If cabin altitude should
exceed 10.000 feel, warnings and annunciations are provided to the flight crew so
that appropriate action may be taken.
The pressurization system performs the following functions:
• Automatically maintains selected cabin altitude through isobaric
pressurized operation
• Automatically limits maximum cabin pressure differential
• Provides safety pressure relief operation
• Provides negative (vacuum) pressure differential control
• Allows manual barometric correction for pre-programmed Landing Field
Elevation (LFE)
• Permits manual cabin altitude control through control of the outflow valve
• Automatically limits cabin altitude ratepf -change to a maximum of 3.000
leet•per•minute (FPM) during pressurization and depressurization
• Provides crew•selected cabin altitude rate•of•change
• Regulates and smooths cabin pressurization to prevent pressurization
surges or 'bumps'
• Provides rapid cabin ventilation for smoke removal
Normally the pressurization system limits cabin pressurization differential to 9.55
±0.1 psid. As differential pressure reaches 9.55 psid, an amber CABIN DFRN 9.6
caution message is displayed on the Crew Advisory System (CAS) and the
pressurization system begins limiting outflow valve closure.
If the pressurization system malfunctions and cannot limit maximum cabin
pressure differential to 9.5510.1 psid. a safety valve limits pressure differential to
9.7 10.1 psid. As differential pressure reaches 9.8 psid. a red CABIN DFRN 9.8
warning message is displayed on CAS.
The pressurization system receives information from the two Air Data Computers
(ADC #1 and ADC #2). It also uses the Weight•On•Wheels (WOW) system
(commonly referred to as the nutcracker system) to control various system
operating modes.
Under typical flight conditions, the fright crew programs the system prior to takeoff.
Apart from selection of the FLIGHT/LANDING mode switch or adjustment of LFE.
system operation is virtually automatic.
Major components of the pressurization system are:
• Cabin Pressurization Transducer
• Cabin Pressure Outflow Valve
• CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL Panel
• Cabin Pressurization Selector Panel
• Cabin Pressure Safety Valve
• Cabin Rate Pressure Switch
• Cabin Pressure Warning Switch
• Cabin Differential Pressure / Altimeter / Rate•of•Climb Indicator

Cu!Stream IV
OPERATING MANUAL
A. Cabin Pressurization Transducer:
The solid-state cabin pressurization transducer is the heart of the
pressurization system. Located in the electronics area of the entrance
compartment, produces the output signal to the outflow valve motor based
on the following input data:
• Inputs from the cabin pressurization selector panel
• Corrected static pressure data from the ADCs (or Digital Air Data
Computers (DADCs))
• FLIGHT or GROUND mode from the nutcracker system
• Sensed cabin pressure from inside the pressure vessel
To prevent undesired outflow valve movement from transient power
surges. the transducer obtains a clean. stable supply of power from an
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) filter installed in the radio rack.
Within the transducer are circuits that limit cabin differential pressure in
flight to 6.550 feet with an airplane altitude of 45.000 feet.
B. Cabin Pressure Outflow Valve:
A single pressurization outflow valve is installed under the lower shelf of the
radio rack. It is an electrically-controlled. motor-driven valve that
determines the amount of cabin air exhausted overboard, thus controlling
cabin pressurization. It is capable of moving from fully open to fully closed
in approximately ten (10) seconds.
The outflow valve is a butterfly type valve with an electro-mechanical
actuator and a potentiometer that provides valve position information to the
position indicator on the CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL panel. Within the
actuator are a DC motor with DC brakes. an AC motor with AC brakes and
a motor-generator.
The AC motor, which operates the outflow valve in the Automatic (AUTO)
mode, responds to signals from the cabin pressurization transducer. The
DC motor operates the outflow valve in the MANUAL mode by responding
to signals from the CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL panel manual control
knob. Both motors are capable of extremely slow or fast operation, or at
any intermediate speed required by the controlling device.
During normal system operation (AUTO mode), the cabin pressurization
transducer opens and closes the outflow valve using the AC motor. While
the AC motor is in operation, the DC motor brake engages to prevent DC
motor movement. The motor-generator in tum provides a rate-of-change
signal back to the cabin pressurization transducer.
With the system in MANUAL mode, the manual control knob provides a DC
signal to position the outflow valve. The AC motor brake engages to
prevent AC motor movement. Although the motor-generator is inactive. the
potentiometer still provides valve position information to the valve position
indicator.
In the unlikely event that both Essential AC and Essential DC bus power
sources are lost, the outflow valve will cease operation and remain at the
last position commanded.

OPERATING MANUAL
C. CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL Panel:
(See Figure 3.)
The CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL panel. located on the cockpit
overhead panel. has controls and indicators for:
• Manual control of the outflow valve
• Position of the outflow valve
• Selection of either FLIGHT or LANDING pressurization schedules
• Selection of either AUTO or MANUAL mode of operation
• Selection of either ADC #1 or ADC #2 to supply static pressure
information to the pressurization transducer
The cabin pressure control panel operates on 28V DC from the Essential
DC bus and 115V AC. 400 Hz from the Essential AC bus.
D. Cabin Pressurization Selector Panel:
(See Figure 4.)
Automatic operation of the pressurization system requires crew inputs on
the cabin pressurization selector panel. located on the copilot's flight panel.
It contains control knobs and indicator tapes for setting the following:
• FLIGHT: flight plan's maximum aircraft altitude and corresponding
cabin altitude to be maintained
• BARO CORR: barometric pressure correction to local conditions
(28.00 to 31.00 inches of mercury)
• LDG: preprogrammed LFE (.1.000 to +15.000 feet)
• RATE: cabin altitude rate.of•change for climb and descent in FPM
(minimum UP: 50 FPM. minimum DOWN: 30 FPM. maximum UP:
2.000 FPM. maximum DOWN: 2.000 FPM)
Each control knob is connected to a variable resistor and gear train that
drives the indicator tape. Once programmed. the cabin pressurization
selector panel supplies driving signals to the pressurization transducer.
E. Cabin Pressure Safety Valve:
A pressurization safety valve. located below the radio rack. provides safety
pressure relief. vacuum relief and pressurization rate limiting. Because it
operates entirely on cabin and ambient pressure. it is independent of all
other components in the pressurization system and requires no external
power source.
Should the AUTO or MANUAL control mode of the pressurization system
malfunction and cabin pressure builds up to approximately 9.7 30.1 psid.
the safety valve will open. It then modulates to limit cabin pressure to the
safety relief pressure of 9.8 psid.
F. Cabin Rate Pressure Switch:
The cabin rate pressure switch functions strictly as a safety device by
sensing the rate at which the cabin altitude is increasing (losing pressure).
If a failure should occur that results in rapidly rising cabin altitude. the rate
switch inhibits automatic (AC) control of the outflow valve and shifts to
manual (DC) control. This would occur at loss rates of approximately 3.000
FPM.

G. Cabin Pressure Warning Switch:
The cabin pressure warning switch. located on the right side of the
entrance compartment. is an aneroid-operated switch that reacts to cabin
altitude. If cabin altitude exceeds 9.250 /750 feet. the switch causes a red
CABIN PRESS LOW warning to be displayed on CAS and, if installed. on
the Standby Warning Lights Panel (SWLP).
H. Cabin Differential Pressure / Altimeter / Rate-of-Climb Indicator:
(See Figure 5.)
The cabin differential pressure / altimeter rate-of-climb indicator is located
on the overhead panel above the CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL panel. It
provides the following indications:
(1) Cabin Differential Pressure: The cabin differential pressure indicator
(labeled DFRN PRESS) is driven by the cabin pressurization
transducer. The display indicates cabin differential pressure to the
nearest 1/100th psid on a four digit display.
If cabin differential pressure reaches 9.6 psid, an amber CABIN
DFRN-9.6 caution message is displayed on CAS and an amber light
above the indicator will illuminate. If differential pressure reaches 9.8
psid. a red CABIN DFRN-9.8 warning message is displayed on CAS
and a red light above the indicator Ml illuminate.
(2) Cabin Altimeter: The cabin altitude indicator (labeled CABIN ALT) is
located adjacent to the differential pressure indicator. It displays
cabin altitude in feet (FT) on a five digit display.
(3) Cabin Rate•of-Change Indicator: The cabin rate-of-change indicator
(labeled RC) is located beneath the cabin altimeter. It displays cabin
altitude rate-of-change in FPM on a four digit display. A plus or
minus sign precedes the digits to show cabin climb or descent.
3. Modes of Operation:
A. Automatic Operation Mode:
Automatic operation of the cabin pressurization system can best be
understood by using a typical flight scenario shown in Figure 2 as an
example. In this scenario. the crew begins their flight with a standard sea
level field pressure altitude and progresses through closing the doors.
engine start. taxi out, takeoff. climb to cruise. cruise, descent to approach
altitude. executing the approach. landing, engine shut down and opening
the doors.
The flight crew initially sets 45.000 feet on the FLIGHT scale of the cabin
pressurization selector panel. This results in the adjacent CABIN scale
reading of 6.550 feet, the isobaric cabin altitude that corresponds to the
maximum differential pressure of 9.41 psid. The cabin RATE dial is set at
500 FPM UP, resulting in the adjacent DOWN scale reading 300 FPM. The
average rate of climb to 45.000 feet is approximately 2,700 FPM. with a
cabin rate of climb of 500 FPM. The departure runway field elevation
altitude is then programmed into the LDG (Landing) dial. Destination
runway field elevation altitude (4.000 feet in this example) is set during
descent. At this point, the pressurization system is programmed for
automatic operation and. assuming the AUTO/MANUAL switch is in AUTO.
the system will operate in automatic mode when electrical power is applied

to the aircraft.
With the airplane on the ground, the AUTONANUAL switch in AUTO and
the FLIGHT/LANDING switch in LANDING, the outflow valve will cycle
open as soon as electrical power is applied. This is due to the absence of
airflow and the cabin pressurization transducer sensing an on-ground
condition from the nutcracker.
With the main entrance door still open at this point, there is no pressure
buildup. A negligible pressure increase (approximately 0.05 psid. equalling
pressure drop across the outflow valve) occurs after closing the main
entrance door, remaining negligible through engine start, APU shutdown
and transfer of air source to the engines. During taxi, the pressure remains
low until lineup in preparation for takeoff. At this point, the flight crew
selects the FLIGHT position on the FLIGHT/LANDING switch on the
CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL panel.
With the FLIGHT position selected, the outflow valve immediately begins to
close under rate control. 'holding' at approximately 0.25 psid of pressure
buildup. This 'holding". known as ground differential pressure control.
serves to minimize the possibility of 'pressure bumps' during takeoff.
As soon as the aircraft becomes airborne, the nutcracker system sends an
inflight signal to the cabin pressurization transducer. The transducer in tun
commands the outflow valve to close, thus pressurizing the cabin at the
programmed rate of 500 FPM UP until the maximum differential pressure of
9.55 ±0.10 psid is reached. The cabin altitude remains stable within ±25
feet of the final cabin altitude. in this case 6.550 feet at an aircraft altitude
of 45,000 feet. Stability is maintained provided the aircraft does not climb
above 45.000 feel. the maximum allowable altitude of the aircraft.
In preparation for descent, the flight crew enters the destination runway
field elevation altitude (4.000 feet in this example) in the LDG window. A
discriminator circuit is incorporated within the cabin pressurization
transducer to prevent inadvertent programming of an isobaric cabin altitude
(CABIN value) lower than the landing field altitude (LDG value). This
feature prevents landing with excessive cabin differential pressure. If the
discriminator circuit detects a LDG value higher than the CABIN value, it
allows the LDG value to override the CABIN value and control that outflow
valve. This is the only instance in which the LDG value can override the
FLIGHT position on the FLIGHT/LANDING switch while in the AUTO mode.
When ready to descend, the FLIGHT/LANDING switch is positioned to
LANDING.
Noting that the cabin rate of climb was preprogrammed to be 300 FPM
DOWN prior to takeoff, the flight crew adjusts the BARO CORR (barometric
correction), if necessary. This completes the descent programming. As the
aircraft descends. the system automatically begins to open the outflow
valve until a descent rate of 300 FPM is reached. Cabin pressure is
maintained at approximately 400 to 500 feel below the actual LFE, or at
approximately 0.25 psid.
Upon touchdown. the nutcracker system signals the cabin pressurization
transducer of an on-ground condition. causing the outflow valve to be
driven fully open. With the outflow valve fully open, cabin pressure drops to
a negligible pressure of approximately 0.05 psid until the air supply is shut
off.

OPERATING MANUAL
B. Manual Operation Mode:
To operate the pressurization system manually. the AUTO/MANUAL switch.
located on the CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL panel, is selected to
MANUAL. This causes the MANUAL switch legend to illuminate amber, the
illumination of an amber light (referred to as the motor power indicator)
above the AUTO/MANUAL switch and display of an amber CABIN PRES
MANUAL caution message on CAS.
The outflow valve may then be controlled by the flight crew. using its DC
motor, by means of a knob on the CABIN PRESSURE CONTROL panel.
The knob is spring-loaded to return the vertical position. labeled MAN
HOLD, when released. Rotating the knob toward OPEN drives the valve
open: rotating the knob toward CLOSE drives the valve closed.
The manual control knob circuit is designed such that the further the knob
is moved away from MAN HOLD toward OPEN or CLOSE. the more pulses
are applied to the motor. i.e.. the faster the valve moves in that direction.
The amber motor power indicator above the AUTO/MANUAL switch will
blink in proportion to the speed of the pulses applied to the motor.
Valve position is shown by an indicator to the right of the control knob. The
indicator displays outflow valve position at all times, whether in AUTO or
MANUAL modes of operation. When desired valve position is attained.
releasing the knob will retum the knob to MAN HOLD and the outflow valve
will hold (stop) in that position.
To return system to automatic mode. the AUTO/MANUAL switch is selected
to AUTO. The annunciations will be extinguished and the MAN HOLD knob
function will become inoperative.
NOTE:
On aircraft having ASC 295 incorporated, loss of AC
power will automatically switch the pressurization
system to MANUAL control. This causes the MANUAL
switch legend to illuminate amber. the illumination of
an amber motor power indicator above the AUTO!
MANUAL switch and display of an amber CABIN
PRES MANUAL caution message on CAS.
C. Cabin Pressure Safety Valve Limiting Mode:
Should the AUTO or MANUAL control mode of the pressurization system
malfunction and cabin pressure builds up to approximately 9.7 ±0.1 psid.
the safety valve will open. It then modulates to limit cabin pressure to the
safety relief pressure of 9.8 psid.
D. Depressurization Rate Limiting Mode:
Depressurization rate limiting prevents excessive rates of pressure loss. as
might occur. for instance. if a malfunction drives the outflow valve to the full
open position. Detection of an excessive rate of pressure loss triggers the
cabin rate pressure switch. in turn causing the outflow valve to be driven
fully closed and automatic control of the system is inhibited. The MANUAL
legend of the AUTO/MANUAL switch illuminates amber and an amber
CABIN PRES MANUAL caution message is displayed on CAS.
The flight crew can restore the system to automatic operation after

2A-91-30: Airflow and Temperature Control Sy,stem
1. General Description:
The airflow and temperature control system for the Gulfstream IV provides for
comfortable cabin and cockpit temperatures throughout the operating envelope of
the aircraft by enabling the flight crew to perform the following functions:
• Select and control bleed air entering and exiting two Environmental Control
System (ECS) refrigeration pack assemblies, referred to as the Left and
Right ECS Packs. This dual pack concept provides redundancy in the
event one pack should fail. Source air into the ECS packs is provided to a
bleed air manifold by either an approved external air source or APU air
(while on the ground), or by High Pressure (HP) turbine bleed air from
2A-21-00

Gulfstream IV
OPERATING MANUAL
either or both of the aircraft's engines (on ground or in flight). Through use
of an isolation valve, air from the bleed air manifold can be directed to
either ECS pack. This results in a constant mass of conditioned air for all
areas within the pressure vessel.
• Control the temperature of conditioned air delivered to the cockpit and
cabin areas (referred to as zones) within the pressure vessel. This is done
using the two ECS packs to cool incoming air and deliver it to a conditioned
air manifold. Valves mix hot bleed air with cold conditioned air to modulate
the temperature of the air coming from the manifold into the pressure
vessel. Water separation. for humidity reduction. is also provided.
During normal inflight operation. temperature controlled and pressure.controllecl
HP bleed air from either or both engines is supplied to the bleed air manifold. Air
from the manifold is provided to the ECS packs, where cooling takes place. Each
pack consists of a primary heat exchanger. secondary heat exchanger and an air
cycle machine (ACM). (The term -air cycle' means that cooling is produced by a
thermodynamic cycle, using only air as a medium, as opposed to a vapor cycle.
which employs Freon TM or other similar gases.) The ECS packs then reduce air
temperature to values above freezing. Humidity reduction is accomplished by a
mechanical water separator.
Temperature control of the zones within the pressure vessel is accomplished by
varying the amount of hot bleed air which bypasses the cooling equipment.
Separate temperature control is provided for the cockpit and cabin zones using a
control panel located on the overhead panel in the cockpit. Provisions for manual
control of the system are included in the event of a failure rendering electronic
control inoperative.
An advantage of the GIV airflow and temperature control system is that it is
capable of functioning independently while on the ground. With the engines not
operating, the bleed air manifold can be supplied with air from either the APU or
from an approved external air cart. System operation on the ground is virtually the
same as in flight. the difference being that ram air flow across the heat
exchangers is provided by a cooling fan.
Should either or both engines be operating. the flight crew may select either or
both engines to supply bleed air to the manifold through use of the ISOLATION
valve switch.
During certain emergency procedures. the flight crew may induce ram air
ventilation into the airflow and temperature control system. Ram air is supplied
from a dorsal fin duct and controlled by a RAM AIR switch located on the
overhead panel in the cockpit.
For the purposes of this description. the airflow and temperature control system is
divided into the following subsystems:
• Air Control System
• Temperature Control System
• Distribution System
• Refrigeration System
• Ram Air Ventilation System
• Temperature Indication System
• Equipment Cooling System

2. Description of Subsystems, Units and Components:
A. Air Control System:
(See Figure 6 and Figure 7.)
(1) Bleed Air Manifold:
The bleed air manifold is used as the source of bleed air for the air
conditioning system. Air to the manifold is supplied by either an
approved external air source or APU air (while on the ground). or by
HP turbine bleed air from the aircraft's engines (on ground or in
flight).
The bleed air manifold delivers air to using systems. one being the
air conditioning system. Delivered air is approximately 400° F at a
maximum pressure of 40 psig. For the air conditioning system. air is
delivered to the air conditioning shutoff and flow regulating valves in
the tail compartment.
(2) Air Conditioning Shutoff and Flow Regulating Valves:
The air conditioning shutoff and flow regulating valves perform two
functions in the air conditioning system:
• Act as shutoff valve when system operation is terminated.
• Act as a flow regulator when the system is operating.
The air conditioning shutoff and flow regulating valve is
pneumatically operated butterfly valve. using upstream duct
pressure as the operating force. An internal electrical solenoid is
installed and. when energized. pressurizes the valve to close it. This
prevents air entry. ending system operation. When de.energized.
upstream duct pressure opens the butterfly valve and airflow starts
again. Airflow through the valve is regulated to a maximum of 42.1
(±1.5) pounds per minute (ppm) of flow.
There are several ways to energize the solenoid and close the
valve:
• Selection of the RAM AIR switch to RAM.
• Selection of the L PACK or R PACK switch to OFF.
• ACM compressor discharge temperature reaching 450° F (on
ground).
For aircraft 1000 through 1155 (excluding 1034) having ASC 135.
aircraft 1034. and aircraft 1156 and subsequent, the following
additional functions exist:
• Selection of the MASTER CRANK or MASTER START switch
closes the LEFT ECS PACK valve (on ground). The valve will
automatically reopen when the MASTER CRANK or
MASTER START switch is deselected.
• Selection of the L ENG START or R ENG START switch
closes the RIGHT ECS PACK valve (on ground). The valve
will automatically reopen when the start valve closes.
Exiting the air conditioning shutoff and flow regulating valve. air
flows through an ozone filter that reduces concentration to a
maximum of 0.1 pan per million. The air is then delivered to the
temperature control system and split into two paths. One path is
2A-21-00
Page 20
May 3W02
PRODUCTION AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS
Revision 7
EFTA01105893
Cu!Stream IV
OPERATING MANUAL
routed to the primary heat exchangers (for primary cooling) and the
other path is routed to the cabin and cockpit temperature control
valves (bypass air).
B. Temperature Control System:
(See Figure 8.)
Air leaving the ozone filter is delivered to the temperature control system
and can take two paths: either through the refrigeration unit or through the
cabin and cockpit temperature control valves. The amount of air that can
pass through the temperature control valves is dependent upon valve
butterfly position. The remaining bleed air is delivered to the refrigeration
unit to be cooled. This now cold air then rejoins the hot bleed air from the
temperature control valves, thereby becoming temperaturecontrolled
(conditioned) air. The position of the temperature control valve determines
the compartment temperature by mixing the hot and cold air to maintain the
desired temperature. All temperature control devices in this system are
directed toward control of the appropriate temperature control valve.
(1) Cabin/Cockpit TEMP CONTROL Panel:
The Cabin/Cockpit TEMP CONTROL panel. located on the cockpit
overhead panel. is used to automatically or manually set a desired
cabin or cockpit temperature. Each portion of the panel (CABIN and
CKPT) is isolated and independent of the other.
The selector knob provides automatic and manual temperature
control selection based upon knob position. In the OFF position. no
signal is applied to the temperature control valve from either the
manual selector knob or the temperature controller. Clockwise
rotation of the knob from OFF places the system in the automatic
mode of operation (the normal mode of operation). with the
temperature controller providing electrical signals to the temperature
control valve. Range of the automatic mode of operation is COLD
(60° F) to HOT (80° F).
Counterclockwise rotation of the knob from OFF places the system
in the manual mode of operation, with the manual selector knob
providing electrical signals to the temperature control valve. Range
of the manual mode of operation is COLD (temperature control
valve fully closed) to HOT (temperature control valve fully open).
Returning the knob to OFF defaults the system to full cold operation.
NOTE:
Some aircraft are outfitted with additional manual
temperature controls located aft of the baggage
compartment door. These controls, however, are
pneumatic. not electric and are dependent upon a
minimum 3 psid cabin pressure to manipulate the
temperature control valves.
(2) Cabin/Cockpit Temperature Control Valves:
The cabinlcockpit temperature control valve is a pneumatic
modulating butterfly valve. Pneumatic pressure is required to open
the butterfly and the amount of opening is controlled by. and
proportional to. the amount of pneumatic pressure applied to an

internal diaphragm chamber. With no pneumatic pressure applied to
the diaphragm chamber. an internal mechanism maintains the
butterfly in the closed position.
The pneumatic opening pressure, referred to as servo pressure.
originates from pressure ducted from upstream of the valve. The
ducted pressure is routed to a servo air pressure regulator and
torque motor.
(3) Servo Air Pressure Regulator and Torque Motors:
The servo air pressure regulator and torque motor controls the
pressure to the temperature control valve using an electrical signal
received from the cabin/cockpit temperature controller. The
electrical signal is converted into a pneumatic signal and the
pneumatic
signal positions
the
temperature control valve
accordingly.
(4) Cabin/Cockpit Temperature Controllers:
The cabin/cockpit temperature controller receives and interprets
various inputs in order to derive an output signal. These inputs are:
• Two
cabin/cockpit temperature sensors. for ambient
temperature
• One cockpit temperature sensor, for ambient temperature
• Two cabin/cockpit duct temperature anticipators. for duct
temperature and exhausted air temperature
These inputs are compared to the desired ambient temperature
commanded by the TEMP CONTROL panel knob and an output
signal is then sent to the servo air pressure regulator and torque
motor to position the temperature control valve.
The cabin/cockpit temperature controller receives power from the
28V Right Main DC bus (aircraft 1000 through 1143. excluding
1034) or the Essential DC bus (aircraft 1034. and aircraft 1144 and
subsequent).
(5) Cabin/Cockpit Temperature Sensors:
The cabin/cockpit temperature sensors are dual elements consisting
of two separate sections. One section provides temperature
information to the cabin temperature controllers, while the other
element is actually a temperature bulb for the digital cabin air
temperature indicator located on the cockpit overhead panel. On
airplanes SN 1437 and subsequent and SN 1000 through 1436
having ASC 162A, a second cabin temperature sensor is also
installed. It is used for temperature indication only.
(6) Cockpit Temperature Sensor:
The cockpit temperature sensor is a single thermistor sensing
element. It is used with the compartment thermostat to provide
temperature information to the cockpit temperature controller.
(7) Crossover Function:
Airflow and temperature control capability is maintained in the event
of failure of either engine or either ECS pack.
In the event of an engine failure. the BLEED AIR switch for the

operative engine is left ON while the BLEED AIR switch for the
inoperative engine is selected OFF. The ISOLATION valve would be
opened to allow operative engine bleed air to both ECS packs. Both
PACK switches are left ON for full airflow and temperature control
capability.
In the event of an ECS pack failure. the PACK switch for the
operative pack is left ON while the PACK switch for the inoperative
pack is selected OFF. The BLEED AIR svritch for the operative
paclis engine is left ON for full airflow and temperature control
capability.
Depending on flight conditions and mission requirements. problem
ECS packs should be managed as necessary. Airplane Flight
Manual limitations should be consulted if an ECS pack is to be shut
down in flight.
NOTE:
Do not select both ECS packs OFF at altitude.
C. Distribution System:
(See Figure 6 and Figure 7.)
Exiting the temperature control valves. the hot bleed air is joined with the
cooled air from the refrigeration unit to become temperature-controlled air.
This air is then introduced into the cabin and cockpit distribution systems.
each having separate temperature control valves and ductwork.
The cockpit distribution system consists of ducting from the cockpit
temperature control valve. the refrigerated air duct, an air duct check valve
and a silencer. Final distribution is from four outlets in the cockpit: a
controllable side (or shoulder) outlet and a non-adjustable foot outlet, for
each pilot.
The cabin distribution system consists of ducting from the cabin
temperature control valve, a air duct check valve and a silencer. Final
distribution is through two louvered baseboard ducts running most of the
cabin's length, one on each side.
Cabin and cockpit check valves are installed in the compartment ducting
allowing air to flow only in a forward direction. Should the air attempt to
reverse flow. the check valve closes to prevent backflow.
Cabin and cockpit silencers are installed in the ducting under the floor to
silence air noise from the bleed air ducts.
D. Refrigeration System:
(See Figure 7.)
Bleed air which does not bypass the cabin and cockpit temperature control
valves is routed into the refrigeration unit (ECS pack). The ECS pack
consists of the following major components:
• Primary Heat Exchanger
• ACM and ACM Overtemperature Thermal Switch
• Secondary Heat Exchanger
• Water Separator System
PRODUCTION AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS
2A-21-00
Page 23
May 30;02
Revision 7
EFTA01105896
Gulfstream IV
OPERATING MANUAL
• Water Separator Anti-Ice System
• Cooling Fan
• Cooling Air Distribution
(1) Primary Heat Exchanger:
The primary heat exchanger is the first stage of the refrigeration
process. Ram air from the dorsal fin inlet is used as a coolant. The
heat exchanger is a "single pass' type exchanger and is located in
the tail compartment.
Air exiting the heat exchanger is split into two ducts. One duct routes
air into the eye of the compressor section of the ACM. The other
duct routes air through the water separator anti-ice valve into the
anti-ice muff assembly. bypassing the ACM and secondary heat
exchanger.
(2) Air Cycle Machine (ACM) and ACM Overtemperature Thermal
Switch:
The ACM is an expansion turbine which reduces air temperature by
causing the air to perform useful work. resulting in lower air pressure
and thus. lower air temperature. The work extracted from the
airstream in the turbine section is absorbed a compressor wheel
directly shafted to the turbine wheel and located in a separate
chamber on the upstream side of the unit. A large percentage of the
work extracted from the airstream by the turbine wheel is used by
the compressor wheel. As the compressor wheel is performing work
on the upstream air, its pressure and temperature are increased.
This work arrangement is called a pressure recovery system or
*bootstrap' system.
With the ACM in full operation (no airflow to the anti-ice valve).
airflow moves through the compressor section to the secondary
heat exchanger. then to the turbine section nozzle. exiting out the
eye of the turbine section into the mixing muff.
A 450° F thermal switch is incorporated into the discharge side of
the bootstrap compressor to monitor discharge air temperature. If a
malfunction causes low or no airflow across the heat exchangers.
the compressor discharge temperature Ml rise accordingly. At 450°
F. the svritch causes an amber L-R COOL TURB HOT message to
be displayed on CAS. Additionally, when on the ground. the ECS
pack will be automatically shut off due to a protection circuit passing
through the ground configuration of the nutcracker system.
An amber L-R COOL TURB HOT CAS message in flight may be the
result of either an excessive air supply to the ACM. resulting in an
overspeed/overtemperature condition. or an air bearing failure in the
ACM. Excessive airflow from 12th stage compensation can be the
result of operating cowl anti-ice and/or wing anti-ice at high altitudes.
(3) Secondary Heat Exchangers:
Secondary heat exchangers are installed adjacent to the primary
heat exchangers. Ram air from the dorsal fin inlet is used as a
coolant.
(4) Water Separator System:
2A-21-00
Page 24
May 3W02
PRODUCTION AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS
Revision 7
EFTA01105897
Gulfstream IV
OPERATING MANUAL
Air expansion inside the cooling turbine and resultant discharge
temperatures below ambient forces moisture into the air where it
condenses. A two-section water separator provides a means for
removing the water.
The first section consists of a coalescer which transforms the many
small droplets into a few large drops by forcing the water through a
coarse mesh cloth bag. In the second section. the airstream is
forced to swirl by means of a series of vanes so that the large drops
are spun to the outside walls. Water extracted from the air is also
sprayed into the secondary heat exchanger cooling air inlet to assist
in cooling.
The water separator is capable of removing approximately 80% of
all liquid state water passing through it but it cannot, however.
remove water vapor. The water separator also contains a relief valve
which. if the coalescer becomes clogged. bypasses the air through
the unit. In this case. dehumidification would not take place.
(5) Water Separator Anti-Ice System:
During cool, moist
conditions.
cooling
turbine discharge
temperatures can fall low enough that condensed water freezes. To
prevent the coalescer from becoming clogged with ice crystals and
restricting airflow, a water separator anti-ice system is installed in
the tail compartment. The system consists of a water separator anti-
ice valve. a sensor and a bypass duct mixing muff assembly.
The water separator anti-ice valve is a butterfly-type shutoff and
modulating valve. It controls the refrigeration unit cold air outlet
temperature to a minimum of 37° F (nominal) by modulating the flow
of compressor inlet air to the anti•ice muff at the turbine discharge.
Valve position is controlled by a torque motor in response to signals
received from the water separator anti-ice sensor/controller.
The water separator anti-ice sensoacontroller is a pneumatic
thermostat. installed on the discharge side of the water separator.
The thermostat is set to maintain anti-ice valve position so that air
moving through the water separator is held at a temperature of
approximately 37° F. The sensor/controller remains function
throughout all altitude. temperature and humidity ranges.
One cockpit indication that a water separator may be frozen is an
absence of cool air in all modes of operation. To determine whether
the water separator is merely frozen or the ACM is faulty. the
affected PACK switch is selected OFF and a ten minute time period
is allowed to elapse. The affected PACK switch is then selected ON
and the air temperature is checked. If cool air returns, the water
separator was most likely frozen, thus a warmer temperature should
be selected. If warm or hot air returns. the ACM is most likely faulty.
(6) Cooling Fan:
Ground cooling places additional requirements on the air
conditioning system. As there is no ram air flow, the possibility exists
that the air conditioning equipment would overheat unless a source
of cooling air is supplied.
A turbofan is installed downstream of the ACM in the dorsal fin ram

air duct. The fan assembly provides airflow across the primary and
secondary heat exchangers whenever the air conditioning system is
in operation on the ground. Fan air leaving the heat exchangers is
then exhausted overboard.
(7) Cooling Air Distribution:
Dehumidified, refrigerated air from the discharge side of the water
separator is ducted forward, joining that portion of the hot bleed air
having passed through the cabin/cockpit temperature control valves
to
become
temperature•controlled
air.
Also.
dehumidified.
refrigerated air from the ECS pack Is ducted into one line which
supplies cabin and cockpit eyeball ducts installed by the operators
completion agency. A check valve Is installed in each line to prevent
backflow.
E. Ram Air Ventilation System:
In the event of an emergency, the flight crew can ventilate the aircraft with
ram air from the ram air dorsal fin Inlet. A line is installed in the ram air duct
just upstream of the primary heat exchanger. The line is routed to the ram
air check valve and then to the downstream side of the left water separator
refrigerated air duct. II ram air duct pressure is greater than refrigerated air
duct pressure, the ram air check valve opens. allowing ram air into the
refrigerated air line. The ram air then moves forward through the cabin duct
check valve, into the distribution system.
The ram air check valve allows airflow to move only from the ram air duct
into the air conditioning system ducting. During normal operations with the
air conditioning system running, system pressure is always greater than
ram air pressure, thus the ram air check valve is held closed.
Selection of ram air ventilation is accomplished using the RAM AIR switch
located on the cockpit overhead panel. Selection of the switch to RAM
supplies 28V Essential DC bus power to close both air conditioning shutoff
and flow regulating valves, shutting off the air conditioning system. As air
conditioning system duct pressure falls below ram air duct pressure, the
ram air check valve opens. allowing ram air into the distribution system.
Conversely, selection of the RAM AIR switch to OFF allows both air
conditioning shutoff and flow regulating valves to open, restoring the air
conditioning system. As air conditioning system duct pressure rises above
ram air duct pressure, the ram air check valve closes, allowing air
conditioning system air Into the distribution system.
NOTE:
Selection of the RAM AIR switch to RAM results in the
cabin altitude climbing, eventually causing the
pressurization system outflow valve
to close.
Consideration should be given to manually opening
the outflow valve to ensure adequate airflow for radio
rack cooling.
NOTE:
During use of ram air ventilation, the flight crew has no
control of cabin air pressure or temperature.

F. Temperature Indication System:
(See Figure 8.)
A digital cabinrcockpit air temperature indicator is installed on the TEMP
CONTROL panel on the cockpit overhead panel. The CABIN temperature
display is provided ambient temperature information from the cabin
temperature sensor. The CKPT temperature display is provided ambient
temperature information from the cockpit temperature sensor. Both sensors
also provide temperature information to their respective temperature
controller. Location of the sensors is determined by the operator's
completion agency.
Power for the indicator is furnished by the 28V Essential DC bus through
the CKPT/CABIN TEMP IND circuit breaker. The indicator is calibrated in
degrees Fahrenheit. with a maximum display value of 199° F.
G. Equipment Cooling System:
(See Figure 9.)
Electric cooling fans are installed to force cooling air to the display unit
cathode ray tubes (CRTs). center pedestal equipment, radio racks and
nose compartment. With electrical power applied. operation of most fans is
automatic and is transparent to the flight crew.
For aircraft 1000 through 1155 (excluding 1034) having ASC 87. and
aircraft 1034. 1156 and subsequent. selection of the PILOT. EICAS or
COPILOT DISPLAY switch while on the ground energizes both CRT
cooling fans. In flight. the fans operate continuously. regardless of switch
position.
Supplemental cooling air for center pedestal equipment is provided by a
fan mounted in the aft right side of the pedestal. The fan is not
thermostatically controlled and operates whenever 28V Right Main DC bus
power is available.
With electrical power applied and the main entrance door open. the right-
hand radio rack cooling fan operates. On aircraft 1156 and subsequent, a
RH RR FAN MAN ON switch is installed on the copilot's side console to
provide additional manual control of the right-hand radio rack fan.
Additionally. blue RH RR FAN AUTO. RH RR FAN FAIL and LH RR FAN
FAIL annunciators are installed on the copilot's side console to show radio
rack fan status.
With the aircraft on the ground and nose compartment temperature above
90° F. a thermal switch opens the nose compartment cooling valve. This
energizes a fan and illuminates an amber N COOL VALVE OPEN
annunciator on each side of the flight panel. Once airborne. a nutcracker
relay closes the valve. Should the valve fail to close in flight. the N COOL
VALVE OPEN annunciators will illuminate.
