  1. E Co 1/214th AVN Regt C-12 Landing Gear

  2. Retraction and Extension of the Landing Gear Is Done by a Hydraulic Power Pack, Located in the Left Wing Center Section Forward of the Main Spar.

  3. Landing Gear Power Pack

  4. Power Pack Components • Hydraulic pump • 28 vdc motor • Gear selector valve and solenoid • Two section fluid reservoir • Filter screens • Uplock pressure switch • Low fluid level sensor

  5. Landing Gear Power Pack and Hydraulic Plumbing

  6. Hydraulic Lines for Normal Gear Extension Are Routed From the Power Pack to the Nose and Main Gear.

  7. Nose gear downlock is accomplished by a lock in the nose gear actuator and the over-the-line action of the nose gear drag brace assembly. • “J” hooks fitted to each main gear upper drag leg provides a positive down lock for main gear. • An overload protection circuit located in the left wing center section forward of the main spar protects the system from electrical overload.

  8. Nose Gear Actuator

  9. Main Gear Wheel Well

  10. Main Gear “J” Hook

  11. Main Gear Up Switch

  12. Main Gear Down Switch

  13. C-12F Landing Gear Limitations Airspeed • Extension: 181 KIAS • Extended: 181 KIAS • Retraction: 163 KIAS Cycling • Observe one minute cooling time between cycles (1 up - 1 down) with a 15 minute cooling time allowed after six cycles

  14. C-12J Landing Gear Limitations Airspeed • Extension, Extended, and Retraction: 180 KIAS Cycling • Max number of consecutive gear cycles is three, allowing two minutes between cycles • Allow five minutes between each additional cycle • After one hour with no gear activation, the cooling interval reverts back to item 1

  15. Uplock Function • Hydraulic fluid pressure performs this function • At approximately 2775 psi, a pressure switch will interrupt current to the pump motor • Should the pressure drop below 2475 psi, the pressure switch will activate the pump motor until normal pressure is reached

  16. Hydraulic Fluid • The system uses MIL-H-5606 • A caution light “HYD FLUID LOW” will illuminate when the fluid level is low
