Mullane Company products include [the] Bronze Guard, [a] durable cast bronze snow guard, [the] Fitrite, [a] rugged cast snow fence system [which] includes brackets for Ludowici and Celadon tiles [and the] Snowboss, [which consists of] color matched snow and ice guards for low profile protection on painted metal roofs.

CONT

[Snow guards appear under many forms. The following context was taken on an illustration of different snow-catching systems.] Aluminium snow hook: complete with 1 ground tile. Aluminium snow fence: deliverable in all colours, length 1.5 m = 1 piece. Aluminium round wood holder, complete with 1 ground tile deliverable in all colours. Snow-catching nose, red, other colours upon inquiry.

Record 5 2000-11-29

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
  • Aircraft Piloting and Navigation
  • Atmospheric Physics
OBS

runback: The condition in which water runs back from the leading edge to freeze in a colder zone, caused either by the liberation of latent heat from supercooled droplets to an extent that the droplets remain liquid and run back, or by insufficient heat being supplied to the leading edge to evaporate all the water there so that some of it runs back. [French equivalent: "ruissellement."]

CONT

The signal change also created a potential concern. Although the revision reduced the size of all leading edge accumulation ice shapes, the issue of potential runback ice was raised since the system is activated with only a thin level of ice buildup.

CONT

Freezing rain, freezing drizzle and mixed conditions may result in extreme ice build-up on protected surfaces exceeding the capability of the ice protection system. Freezing rain, freezing drizzle, mixed conditions and descent into icing clouds from above freezing temperatures may result in runback ice forming beyond protected surfaces. This ice cannot be shed and it may seriously degrade performance and control of the airplane.

OBS

Glace formée en vol sur l'aile de l'avion lorsque les dispositifs conçus pour faire fondre la glace sur le bord d'attaque ne suffisent pas à causer l'évaporation de l'eau fondue, qui «regèle» plus loin en aval sur l'aile.

Subject field(s)
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
CONT

Inspection, Test, Correct as Necessary(ITCAN) check procedures for the pneumatic, air-conditioning, and ice and rain protection system components are provided in this section in their entirety. The ITCAN procedures are grouped in one section for convenience and time-saving. The checks are placed in order of sequence to group test setups and aircraft locations to minimize duplication of effort as much as possible. ITCAN checks provide a conclusive indication of condition, to justify continued operation, or on-condition overhaul of the component.
