Message Overview:
Message Description:
The cyan 'L ENGINE FUEL BYPASS' advisory CAS message indicates the left engine fuel filter is impending bypass.
- The fuel filter module is equipped with a pressure delta switch that transmits a signal to the engine ECU to indicate an impending clogged main fuel filter.
- A fuel filter bypass valve provides assurance that fuel flow will continue to the engine in the event that pressure across the filter exceeds levels that may interrupt continuous fuel flow.
- The bypass valve open point is set >26 psid, the impending bypass indicator is set at 13.5 ±2.5 psid. This provides the aircraft operator sufficient time to complete the current flight prior to servicing the filter.
