The right hydraulic system is similar to the left system. The right system power:
The system consists of a reservoir, engine-driven pump and an electric motor-driven pump.
Hydraulic fluid is supplied to each hydraulic pump from an independent reservoir. The reservoir is pressurised by the Bleed Air system to ensure positive fluid flow. A quantity measuring system provides information to the EICAS status display. RF displays when a reservoir requires refilling prior to dispatch (quantity < 0.75).
The RSVR light illuminates and the EICAS advisory message R HYD QTY displays when the reservoir quantity is low (quantity < 0.5). The RSVR also illuminates and the EICAS advisory message R HYD RSVR PRESS displays when the reservoir air pressure is low.
The reservoir has a stand pipe to maintain reserve hydraulic fluid for use by the Reserve Brakes in the event of a right system hydraulic Leak. With fluid level at the top of the standpipe, quantity is approximately 0.15.
Fluid for the engine pump flows through a shut off valve controlled by the Right Engine Fire Switch. Putting the fire switch, shuts off the flow of fluid to the engine pump and depressurises the pump.
The primary hydraulic system pump is an engine-driven pump. The engine pump can be depressurised with the engine operating by turning off the engine pump.
The pump PRESS light illuminates and the EICAS advisory message R HYD ENG PUMP displays when the pump output pressure is low. The pump OVHT light illuminates and the EICAS advisory message R ENG HYD OVHT displays when the pump temperature is high.
An electric motor-driven pump provides additional hydraulic power and is controlled by an Electric Pump Switch.
The pump PRESS light illuminates and the EICAS advisory message R HYD ELEC PUMP displays when the pump output pressure is low. The pump OVHT light illuminates and the EICAS advisory message R ELEC HYD OVHT displays when the pump temperature is high.
The SYS PRESS light illuminates and the EICAS caution message R HYD SYS PRESS displays when the hydraulic system pressure is low.
Hydraulic system pressure displays on the EICAS status page.
Pushing the Reserve Brakes Switch configures the hydraulic system to use the reservoir's reserve fluid, activates the electric motor-driven pump regardless of the pump switch position and isolates the pump output power to only the Normal Brakes.
