FLIGHT 5 MARCH 1954 k LIMITED J33. a. FLAP TO TANK HAP EMERGENCY The Monomatic System of hydraulic operation for aircraft auxiliaries has the following advantages:— Reduction in pipe weight. No additional power supply for emergency operation. Simplicity of control. Reliability in service. Ease of maintenance. The pumps, selectors and release valves are mounted adjacent to the circuit demanding the highest power, giving a self-contained circuit for each service, having small lengths of pipes, low weight and small power losses. The only long pipes are those for emergency operation which are of small diameter and low weight. The saving of pipe weight may be as much as 30% compared with conventional circuits. No additional source of power need be carried for emergency use. In the Monomatic System one of the normal hydraulic pumps takes over if a failure occurs. This is yet another weight saving feature. Emergency operation is automatic, the pilot having only the normal selector to operate. The service life of all components is determined by test, specified and guaranteed.
