Oxygen Pressure Gauge

[JG14_Smil]

Hello,

 

The oxygen pressure gauge, the one without the blinkers, does nothing at all now. Does anyone remember it working? Is it suppose to work?

 

Thanks,

The instrument shows helmet oxygen pressure, maybe not simulated, never used a helmet.

If you ask, which helmet (ГШ 4 or ГШ 6), found a picture...

Are you checking the oxygen system above 3 km?

 

From the Manual:

 

KKO-5 operation depending on altitude:

 up to 2 km pilot breathes in cockpit air;

 from 3 km to 8km – oxygen-air mixture;

 from 8 km to service ceiling – pure oxygen.

 

At altitudes lower than 2 km, if the RPK-52 «100%О2 – NORMAL» handle is set into the «NORMAL» position, oxygen is not supplied and IK-52 oxygen pressure indicator and flow annunciator flags do not react on inhaling and exhaling.

Yes, found it in the manual. Should have read first. Ikarus has a gauge for it, for naught.
