7.14 STRUCTURAL TEMPERATURE INDICATOR
If OÄM 42-188 is carried out a structural temperature indicator, installed in the LH and
RH main landing gear bay (see Figure below) indicates when the structural temperature
limitation is exceeded (refer to Section 2.16.10). The indicator needs to be checked if the
zero fuel mass exceeds 1650 kg (3638 lb).
At temperatures below the 55°C (131°F) limit, the indicator appears all red with a faint
indication of "55" (°C). At temperatures exceeding the 55°C (131°F) limit, the indicator
displays a clearly contrasting red "55" (°C) on a black background (see Figure below).
NOTE
At temperatures approaching the limit, the background will
progressively darken prior to turning black; this indicates
acceptable temperatures.
A red "55" on black background indicates that the structural temperature limit is exceeded.
In this case the maximum zero fuel mass is 1650 kg (3638 lb):
