sure or auxiliary system pressure, provides hy-
draulic fluid to the landing gear and the flaps.
The crossflow valve is solenoid actuated, and
is normally deactivated, allowing main hy-
draulic system fluid to the gear and flaps.
Should main hydraulic system pressure be
lost, the pilot can open the hydraulic crossflow
valve by depressing the HYD XFLOW switch
located on the gear/hydraulic control panel
(Figure 13-2). When the valve is activated,
“ON” is annunciated within the switch. After
opening the crossflow valve, selecting the
AUX HYD pump switch “ON” allows auxil-
iary hydraulic system pressure to be supplied
to the landing gear, gear doors and flaps
(Figure 13-3).
Should the quantity level within the auxiliary
reservoir deplete to a LOW level, the hydraulic
crossflow valve is automatically closed, al-
lowing conservation of auxiliary fluid for the
airplane brake system. A CAS caution mes-
sage, “AUX HYD QTY LO” alerts the crew to
this condition.
The hydraulic crossflow valve is 28 VDC pow-
ered from the left essential bus. It is protected
