Maintenance
State & Discuss:
A Pre-flight Functional C heck procedure is accomplished prior to each flight to assure the mission readiness of the CVR. Show Show matrix comparing Test Tone, Bulk Erase & Slide #12 CVR Fault Indicator
State:
The CVR maintenance philosophy is as follows: (a)
(b)
A100S - costly traditional component-level (test point analysis) troubleshooting & repair. A200S - replacement board-level troubleshooting & repair.
(c)
State:
C.
Reliability
State:
FA2100CVR - economical fault code analysis board-level troubleshooting & repair. The FA2100CVR maintenance program was designed so that if the recorder should fail, the repair can be accomplished with: (a) Minimal Equipment (b) Minimal Technical Expertise (c) Minimal Down Time (d) Minimal Cost To The User (e) Minimal Spare Stock – Parts (f) Minimal Paperwork – Warranty The reliability figures for each succeeding CVR has improved: (a)
A100S - good - exceeded old electromechanical tape-based A100/A100A CVRs
(b)
A200S - better - close to plug-in & forget
(c)
D.
Review Warranty Agreement
Show Slide #13 Notes:
Rev 07/26/01
FA2100CVR - superior - plug-in & forget: MTBF calculated at > 25,000 hrs. MTBUR field reported at > 40,000 hrs. Slide Warranty Example All parts and maintenance is war ranted for 5 years from date of shipment. In the case of OEMs, for example, Boeing Aircraft, the warranty begins on the date of delivery, not to exceed six years. Page 3 of 4
