CHAPTER 4

SECTION I. UNIT OPERATION

4-1. GENERAL

Correct operation of the TI4100GPU-24 (Turbo Start 4100) includes

both pre-use and operational checks of the unit. Knowledge of the

operating limits, restrictions, performance, unit capabilities and

functions is fundamental to correct and safe operation. The operator

shall ensure compliance with the instructions in this manual that

affect operational safety and the warranty of the unit.

4-2. OPERATING LIMITS AND RESTRICTIONS

The minimum, maximum and normal operating ranges result from careful

engineering and evaluation of test data. These limitations must be

adhered to during all phases of operation. Refer to Chapter 3, Sec-

tion II, OPERATING LIMITS AND RESTRICTIONS, for detailed information.

4-3. PERFORMANCE

Refer to Chapter 5, PERFORMANCE DATA to determine the capability of

the Turbo Start. Consideration must be given to changes in perfor-

mance resulting from variations in ambient temperature, mode of op-

eration, state of charge (with or without 208-240 VAC power), and

aircraft DC bus system inefficiency (voltage drops).
