Read as a whole, this CRJ200 hydraulic manual gives a technician a continuous line from how the three 3000 psi systems are built and routed, through to the exact task number for pulling a pump, flushing a circuit or reading a pressure decay rate. Every procedure carries its own reference information block, its own circuit breaker table with panel, breaker number, name and zone, and its own close-out steps, so the document can be worked from directly at the aircraft rather than treated as background reading.

Three Independent Hydraulic Systems, Documented Separately

Hydraulic System No. 1 draws primary pressure from the engine driven pump mounted on the left (No. 1) engine, identified as EDP 1A, with back-up from ACMP 1B on the left hydraulic rack in the aft equipment compartment. Hydraulic System No. 2 follows the same pattern on the right engine with EDP 2A and ACMP 2B on the right rack. System No. 3 is different — it runs on two alternating current motor pumps, ACMP 3A as the primary generator and ACMP 3B for back-up, both installed in the main landing gear equipment bay, with ACMP 3B capable of running from the air driven generator in an emergency.

The manual documents the full hardware chain for each system: pressure manifold with its internal check valves, pressure switches and pressure transducer; accumulator with nitrogen charging valve and gauge; bootstrap reservoir with quantity transducer, temperature transducer and pressure relief/bleed valve; case drain filter assemblies for each pump; return manifold with bypass valve; heat exchanger with temperature-controlled fan; overflow container; hydraulic shutoff valve in the EDP suction line; and the ground service panel with pressure, return and reservoir fill quick disconnects.

System No. 3 adds the components unique to it — pulsation dampeners and acoustic filters immediately downstream of each ACMP, a 100 cubic inch accumulator, a 690 cubic inch reservoir, three overflow containers, a return fitting with an integral check valve, and ground service connections at the rear fairing of the right wing root.

Maintenance, Test and Inspection Procedures

The maintenance practices block sets out the drain, flush and bleed procedures for all three systems individually, including fill quantities, pressurisation rates, cycle counts for flight spoilers, ground spoilers, ailerons, rudder and elevators, and the landing gear retract/extend cycling required after System No. 3 work. Flush procedures reference the manifold differential pressure indicators that must be watched throughout and the filter elements that may need replacing mid-procedure.

Functional testing is covered for Systems No. 1 and No. 2 together and for System No. 3 separately, with the expected EICAS synoptic page indications listed step by step — reservoir output flow lines changing from blank to green, ACMP output flow lines changing from amber to green, system pressure holding at 3000 ± 200 psi, quantity ranges for each system, temperature limits, brake pressure and the subsystem distribution tables.

Inspection and check tasks include the Level 1 hydraulic fluid inspection with its physical and chemical property limits table, the acidity check using the Skydrol test kit, visual check of the filter differential pressure indicators, internal leak check by pressure decay rate, and a full set of external leak checks — static and dynamic — for the EDP, the ACMP and the reservoir, each with its own permitted leakage rate.

Who This CRJ200 Hydraulic Manual Is For

This chapter suits line and base maintenance engineers working the CRJ200, hydraulic component technicians, technical training departments building course material, and operators who need the manufacturer task data on hand rather than chasing it through a document library. The deactivation and reactivation procedures for the engine driven pump, including the blank-off kit, spline plug, protective caps and V-band coupling torque sequence, are written for an aircraft that has to stay dispatchable, and the MMEL and DDG references appear where they apply.

Put the Correct Procedure in Front of You

Working hydraulic systems on the CRJ200 without the right task card is how seals get cut, lines get cross-threaded and accumulators get charged to the wrong pressure. This Canadair CRJ200 Hydraulic Power Aircraft Maintenance Manual Chapter 29 gives you the removal sequence, the installation sequence, the torque values, the lockwire points, the leak rates that are acceptable and the leak rates that are not, plus the test criteria that confirm the job is actually finished.
