DA 62 AFM Airplane Description
7.11 PITOT-STATIC SYSTEM
Total pressure is measured at the leading edge of the left wing using a Pitot probe. The
static pressure is measured through the static ports in the rear fuselage. To protect against
dirt and condensation there are filters in the system. The Pitot probe and the static port
(if OÄM 62-037 is installed) are electrically heated. Static port heat (if OÄM 62-037 is
installed) is engaged together with the Pitot heating.
With the alternate static valve, the static pressure in the cabin can be used as static
pressure source in the event of a failure of the Pitot-static system.
7.12 STALL WARNING SYSTEM
The lift detector of the DA 62 is located on the front edge of the left wing below the wing
chord line. It is supplied electrically and provides a stall warning, before the angle of attack
becomes critical. The stall status is announced to the pilot by a continuous sound in the
cockpit.
The lift detector vane, the mounting plate and the complete housing are heated to prevent
icing. Heating is engaged together with the Pitot heating.
