1. General
A. The Securaplane Cargo Compartment Smoke Detection System is based upon wireless-spread
spectrum technology. This system provides indication and suppression of fires originating in the cargo
compartments of transport aircraft. See section 26-19-00 for complete description and operation of
the Fire Suppression System. To minimize the amount of wiring required, decrease system weight,
and increase reliability, radio communication links replace wiring between various units of the system.
Multiple smoke detector units (SDU) are mounted in the ceiling of each cargo compartment. Each
detector has a radio transmitter to signal conditions to a Central Control Unit (CCU), which is located
in the air conditioning distribution compartment AFT of the FWD cargo pit (Station 540). The CCU
contains system control and logic, and is linked by wiring to a Control Display Unit (CDU) on the
overhead instrument panel. The 737-300 CDU displays system status and alarms to the flight crew,
and allows the crew to initiate the fire-extinguishing function of the system.
B. The cargo compartment smoke detection system uses 28 VDC power. The power is supplied through
the circuit breakers on the P18 panel.
2. Component Details
See Fig. 1 Sheet 1, page 8
A. Cargo Smoke Detector (SDU) / Identification Plugs for 737-300s with and without auxiliary fuel tanks.
(1.) There are nine SDUs in 737-300s with auxiliary fuel tank and eleven SDUs in 737-300s without
the auxiliary fuel tank. There are four SDUs in the FWD cargo compartment overhead cargo
liners and five or (seven - 737-300 without auxiliary fuel tank) in the AFT cargo compartment
overhead cargo liners. These SDUs monitor their respective cargo compartments for the
presence of smoke and/or heat. Nine or eleven Identification Plugs are used to differentiate FWD
and AFT cargo compartment smoke detector locations. 4 ea. Identification Plugs are P/N marked
100-1026-01 and not banded (black color) for the FWD cargo compartment and 5 ea. or (7 ea. -
737-300 without auxiliary fuel tank) 100-1026-02 and color banded (red) for the AFT cargo
compartment. A lanyard is used to secure the Identification Plug to the aircraft structure or
mounting bracket. A lexan guard encloses the SDU and lanyard preventing any interference with
existing aircraft components, harnesses or flight control cables. 2 ea. (Two) non-rechargeable,
3.6V lithium thionyl batteries power each smoke detector. With the batteries and ID Plugs
installed the SDU transmits its location, serial number and general condition to the CCU every 30
seconds.
(2.) The SDU transmits a RF signal that is received by a Central Control Unit (CCU. The RF signal
is received by the CCU, processed and any alarm or fault data is sent via wiring harness to the
Control Display Unit (CDU) located in the cockpit.
(2.) The Central Control Unit (CCU) communicates with the cockpit Control Display Unit Panel (CDU)
mounted in the 1st Officer’s P5 overhead panel, through an RS 422 communications bus.
(3.) The CCU communicates with the FWD and AFT cargo compartment smoke detectors (SDUs)
and the Suppression Control Unit (SCU) through a Spread Spectrum RF transmission link. The
CCU contains all of the decision-making capability of the system. The CCU receives inputs from
the cargo compartment smoke detectors and determines if it is necessary to illuminate the FWD
FIRE LED, AFT FIRE LED, or MX LED located in the CDU.
(4.) The CCU is arranged in a two-channel arrangement with both channels operating completely
independently of the other channel and both are fully capable of performing all system functions
and annunciations.
(5.) The Configuration Module (CM) is installed into an external port on the end of the CCU. The CM
is an EPROM and after the system has been characterized, stores non-volatile memory of the
system configuration including SDU serial numbers and quantities assigned to each cargo
compartment. The CM is intended to stay with the aircraft in the event a CCU may be replaced.
3. Operation
A. Functional Description
(1.) Smoke is detected by photo electric smoke sensors located in the FWD and AFT cargo
compartments.
(a.) When smoke is detected by an SDU a RF spread spectrum transmission is made to the
CCU .
(b.) When the CCU has received a smoke transmission from two SDUs in the same
compartment, fire indication signaling is sent to the CDU.
(c.) The CDU illuminates its fire warning lights and places a message in its alphanumeric
display.
(d.) The cockpit fire bell turns on, and the FIRE warning, MASTER CAUTION, and Overhead
Annunciator lights on the Captain’s and 1st officer’s master warning panel illuminate.
(2.) The aircrew then arms the system by raising the ARM switch on the CDU.
(a.) The aircrew can then depress the FWD or AFT DISCH switch associated with the lit fire
warning light, to discharge halon into the selected compartment. Once the first bottle has
been selected for discharge, the remaining bottle will discharge 15 minutes later.
(3.) In normal operation it requires 2 smoke sensors to detect smoke in either cargo compartment, or
one detector to detect smoke and its temperature to be above 150°F, to cause a fire alarm.
(4.) The detection system is designed in such a way that it can withstand one failure of a smoke
sensor in the FWD or AFT cargo compartment and still function in the Minimum Equipment List
(MEL) mode. When the system is in the MEL mode the MX light and System OK light are
illuminated simultaneously.
(5.) Fault and Fire Indications are shown in the tables that follow:
Table 1 shows the CDU indicator status and the alphanumeric displayed message based on the
various conditions.
Table 1 – Fire Indications On CDU
Table 2 shows the indicator status and the alphanumeric displayed messages during a halon deployment.
Table 3 shows the indicators and alphanumeric displayed messages when the system does not receive
BTL 1 data within 40 seconds after the command to deploy halon is issued.
Table 3 - CDU Indications on Bottle 1 Failed
(6.) Failed Component Indications are shown in the table that follows.
The maintenance function of the system shall display the messages and function as described
below.
While the system is in normal operating mode press and hold the MX TEST switch for two seconds
to display the first fault.
Press the MX TEST switch to cycle through all the faults. The MX DISPLAY returns to blank when
all faults have been displayed.
If all faults have not been displayed and the MX TEST switch has not been pressed for fifteen
minutes the MX DISPLAY shall return to a blank message.
With each of the faults below an “[A]” or “[B]” shall appear to denote which channel detected the
fault. If both channels detect a fault then neither “[A]” nor “[B]” shall appear.
When a fault is observed on the MX DISPLAY, reset circuit breakers SCU CHA, SCU CHB, CCU
CHA, and CCU CHB. Resetting of the circuit breakers is required to clear faults observed on the
MX DISPLAY. Note that when power is lost to CCU Channel B (CCU CHB Circuit Breaker),
the CDU MX DISPLAY will not illuminate.

(1.) The MX DISPLAY will show the following message: “ENTERING SETUP MODE..RELEASE MX
SETUP TO BEGIN ACQUIRING SENSORS.
C. Depress and release SETUP button on all SDU’s in the Forward and AFT Cargo Compartments.(Ref.
Fig. 1, Sheet 1, 26-15-00, pg. 8)
(1.) The operator in the lower compartments should record the serial number of all SDU’s in the
aircraft after pressing the SDU button. Serial numbers can be found inside the grill of the SDU.
(2.) The CDU MX DISPLAY WILL indicate each SDU serial number as the SDU buttons are
depressed.
(3.) Examples of MX DISPLAY indications during SDU button depressions are as follows: Fxxxxx
yy.y dB, Axxxxx yy.y dB “F” = Forward cargo compartment, xxxxx = SDU serial number, yy.y =
SDU RF level in dB.
D. When all buttons on the SDUs have been depressed, again depress the MX SETUP BUTTON on the
CDU.
(1.) The following message will be observed on the MX DISPLAY: DONE WITH SENSOR
CONFIGURATION (This message appears, and quickly extinguishes. The first detector to be
accepted is then displayed)
(2.) The Central Control Unit (CCU) now has acquired a list of all SDUs and the operator now must
individually accept the SDUs.
F. Follow the directions shown on the MX DISPLAY, depressing MX SETUP to accept detectors, and MX
TEST to reject detectors until all detectors recorded in step C (1) above are accepted.
Note: At times airport RF emissions can add undocumented numbers/serial numbers to the group of
detector serial numbers candidates shown on the MX DISPLAY during step E above. These must be
rejected by depressing the MX TEST BUTTON.
G. When all detectors have been accepted or rejected the following message will appear on the MX
DISPLAY:
H. Press and release the MX SETUP button if the list of detectors is correct and go to Step I. If an

(2.) The MX DISPLAY will “blank”.
(3.) By pressing the MX TEST the operator will abort the SETUP Procedure completely (return to
original system configuration). No record of new detector serial numbers or quantities entered will
be recorded.
(4.) Repeat Setup Procedure, Section 3, Steps A-H.
I. The CDU will immediately go blank and the green SYS OK LED should illuminate within a few minutes
and the MX LED will be extinguished if performed correctly. If an error has been made the MX LED
will illuminate within a few minutes. Press the MX TEST button to determine the configuration fault and
repeat the setup procedure.
NOTES:
(1.) The characterization procedure has to be repeated for the new CM.
(2.) If a configuration module is over programmed (too many SDU serial numbers have been entered)
the CM must be re-programmed (see 5. below).
(3.) The CM retains a memory of the minimum quantity of SDU’s required in each compartment and
must be maintained.
(4.) The minimum quantity of SDU’s in a compartment may be raised but never lowered. SDU’s
should always be replaced by removing and adding an equal number of SDU’s.
4. Prepare for the Configuration Module Copy Procedure using the SCU copy port.

NOTE: The Spread Spectrum Viewer Mode (SSV) is a useful troubleshooting mode in which the
operator may view SDU serial numbers installed on a particular aircraft, what dB levels they are
transmitting, verify correct configurations as well as comparing dB levels on suspected trouble
components.
(1.) The correct operation of the SDUs can be verified by viewing the CDU MX DISPLAY in the
Spread Spectrum Viewer Mode (SSV). This mode shows all SDUs installed on a given aircraft by
compartment, serial number and dB level as received by the CCU. The Spread Spectrum Viewer
mode is entered by simultaneously pressing both the MX TEST and the MX SETUP buttons for at
least 5 seconds.
(2.) The lowest serial number SDU in the forward most cargo compartment will be displayed first
(automatically). To view the next sensor status, press the MX TEST button. After all SDU’s have
been displayed in the first compartment, the SDU’s will be displayed for the next rear cargo
compartment, again lowest serial number to highest serial number. After all aircraft sensors are
viewed, the MX DISPLAY screen will go blank.
(3.) When in the Spread Spectrum Viewer mode the display will continuously display (and update
every 30 seconds if allowed to scroll) the signals received from the selected SDU being read from
the CCU Channel B receiver only. The data will be similar to that shown in Table 4.
(a.) After 15 minutes in viewing mode, (no additional activity), the display will go blank, and the
spread spectrum viewer mode will have to be re-entered if required.
(b.) Other data BITs may be shown in the MX DISPLAY as shown.
(c.) A “SMOKE” suffix indicates the SDU is Alarming. A “SETUP” suffix indicates the setup
button on the SDU has been pushed and the SDU is sending a setup transmission. A
“BATT” suffix indicates the SDU has detected a low battery condition. A “TEMP” suffix
indicates the SDU internal temperature (not ambient in the cargo compartment) BIT has
detected either a high (150F) or a low (32F) temperature. The TEMP suffix is common
during cold winter months and does not affect the SDU operation. A high “TEMP” may be
seen in conjunction with an Alarm condition.
NOTE: Between tests allow time for the simulated smoke to clear from the sensors prior to
proceeding to the next SDU test. Gently blowing air into each sensor head that has been exposed
to smoke will hasten the clearing process. Failure to allow smoke to clear will cause a Fire Alarm.
1. Spray a small amount of smoke into the two selected SDU’s in the FWD cargo
compartment within 30 seconds.
NOTE: It is important that the smoke be applied to the second detector within a time period of 30
seconds after spraying the first detector to insure that the first detector continues to detect smoke.

1. General
A. The Securaplane Cargo Compartment Fire Suppression System is used to control or extinguish fires
in the FWD or AFT cargo compartments by the deployment of a fire extinguishing agent (halon).
Halon is stored in two bottles (20 lbs. each) and is deployed through the use of electrically actuated
pyrotechnic squibs.
(7.) Control Display Unit (CDU) (See Section 26-15-00 and 26-15-01-3)
B. The cargo compartment fire suppression system uses 28 VDC power. The power is supplied through
the circuit breakers on the P18 panel.
B. Diverter Valve
(1.) The diverter valve is located adjacent to the LBL extinguishing bottle. Flex tubing connects the
diverter valve to the extinguishing bottles. There are two (2) electrical receptacles (which are
keyed differently to prevent cross connection of the wiring) for firing of the diverter squibs. The
diverter squibs are used to direct the halon to either the FWD or AFT cargo compartment. The
firing of the diverter valve squibs is deployed by the SCU.
C. Metering Valve
(1.) The metering valve is located adjacent to the LBL extinguishing bottle and diverter valve. Hard
tubing connects the metering valve to the second (outboard) extinguishing bottle. When the
second bottle is discharged, the metering valve maintains the halon concentration to the cargo
compartments.
D. Discharge Nozzles / Tubing / Filters
(1.) There are 4 nozzles in the fire suppression system, two (2) are located in the FWD cargo
compartment ceilings and two (2) are located in the AFT cargo compartment ceilings. Hard
tubing connects the fire nozzles to the diverter valve. There are three (3) filter elements located
in the fire suppression system, two (2) are located between the metering valve and fire bottle #2
and one (1) is located at the fire bottle #1 discharge port.
E. The Suppression Control Unit (SCU), located just outboard of the Central Control Unit (CCU),
communicates with the CCU via dual, RF radio data links. The SCU is used in the event of a
deployment command from the flight crew. When a fire occurs, the cockpit crew enters a fire
command on the Control Display Unit. (CDU) The SCU receives the command from the CCU, then
actuates pyrotechnic squibs to discharge the bottles to the selected compartment. Once initiated, an
automatic discharge sequence rapidly floods the affected cargo compartment with the contents of the
first bottle, and then meters the contents of the second bottle into the cargo compartment at a slower
rate. This sequence is designed to prevent re-ignition of a fire for a minimum period of 60 minutes, to
meet the fire suppression requirements of 14 CFR 121.314.
3. Operation
A. Functional Description
(1.) Deployment of the fire-extinguishing agent is achieved by the firing of pyrotechnic squibs. The
SCU, when in deployment mode, fires the appropriate diverter squib first, followed closely by the
firing of the squib on the first halon bottle. After a time period of 15 minutes the squib on the
second bottle is automatically fired to maintain the halon concentration. Halon is plumbed from
the diverter valve assembly to the nozzles located in the cargo compartments. The diverter valve
squibs are used to direct the halon to either the FWD or the AFT cargo compartments. When the
squib explosion ruptures the applicable discharge disc, the Halon flows through the applicable
discharge port, into the tubing to the nozzles. The nozzles spray the Halon throughout the cargo
compartment. Flooding the cargo compartment with Halon gas decreases the amount of oxygen
in the cargo compartment and extinguishes the fire. The Halon does not leave any residue and
does not require any cleanup afterwards.
(2.) After an extinguishing bottle is discharged, you must make sure there are no disc particles in the
tubing or nozzles and you must replace the extinguishing bottle.
B. Testing
(1.) SCU, CCU, Squib Test
(a.) When the fire suppression/smoke detection system is powered on, the SCU checks the
continuity of the diverter squibs and extinguishing squibs via built-in test (BIT).
(2.) Pressure Switch Test
(a.) When the fire suppression/smoke detection system is powered on, the SCU checks the
continuity of the pressure switch via built-in test (BIT).
C. References

(1.) On/Off Switch - When set to the on position, applies 120 VAC power to the test assembly.
(2.) Reset Switch - Momentary contact switch that when depressed resets the indicator latches.
(3.) Power On Indicator - When illuminated, indicates power is applied to the test assembly.
(4.) FWD DIV Indicator - When illuminated indicates a valid forward diverter squib fire command has
been issued.
(5.) MID DIV Indicator – Not used for two cargo compartment aircraft
(6.) AFT DIV Indicator - When illuminated indicates that a valid AFT diverter squib fire command has
been issued.
(7.) SPARE – Reserved for future use.
(8.) BTL 1 Indicator - When illuminated indicates a valid bottle 1 squib fire command (halon
discharge) has been issued.
(9.) BTL 2 Indicator - When illuminated indicates a valid bottle 2 squib fire command (halon
discharge) has been issued.
(10.) Toggle switches: There are eight toggle switches, which allow for the simulation of open squibs
and for manually controlling the state of the pressure switches.
Note: If the smoke system is armed and halon is discharged mistakenly during smoke system testing or
in any other situation, halon bottle #1 will release its contents very quickly into the selected cargo
compartment. Halon bottle #2 does not normally begin its discharge for 15 minutes after the bottle
#1 discharge. It is thus possible to save the contents of bottle #2 if smoke system breakers SCU
CHA, SCU CHB, CCU CHA, and CCU CHB are pulled quickly after the bottle #1 discharge.
Caution: If bottle #1 does not de-pressurize properly, bottle #2 will automatically discharge at a metered
rate 40 seconds after the halon discharge command occurs.
B. During normal operation, the unit power switch is in the on position, and all squib and bottle switches
are in the closed position. The reset switch should be depressed prior to performing any testing.
Depending upon the testing being performed, the squib OPEN / CLOSE switches will be set to various
positions.
• For testing of the squib driver energy content, the squib set switches (S1 – S6) should be in the
CLOSE position.
• For simulation of open squibs, any given squib switch or combination of squib switches may be
set to the OPEN position.
The BOTTLE 1 and BOTTLE 2 pressure switches are simulated by the BTL 1 and BTL 2 PRESSURE
SWITCHES. These switches will normally be in the AUTO position but can be set to the OFF position
to simulate pressure switch activation (Low pressure).
3. Prepare for the Squib Test
A. Perform Cargo Compartment Smoke Detection System – Adjustment Test per AMM Supplement
Document No. 20646, Section 26-15-00-5 if not already accomplished.

to temporarily remove cable ties securing the cable bundles to the aircraft to allow for connecting
the cable bundles to the test set
Table 1 – SCU Output Cabling Designators
(2.) Supply Electrical Power (AMM CHAPTER 24) if not already accomplished.
(3.) This test simulates the deployment of halon into the cargo compartments. The testing is
performed with one side of the SCU powered and the other unpowered. The testing will require
two people - one in the cockpit and one in the forward cargo compartment near the SCU and
Halon Test Set. Install the Halon Test Set prior to performing this test. Open SCU A, SCU B,
CCU A, and CCU B circuit breakers. This procedure will consist of the following tests:
(a.) Forward Cargo Compartment
1. SCU Channel A and CCU Channel B powered: This test simulates the deployment of
halon into the forward cargo compartment using Channel A of the SCU and Channel B
of the CCU.
2. SCU Channel B and CCU Channel A powered: This test simulates the deployment of
halon into the forward cargo compartment using Channel B of the SCU and CCU
Channel A . Note: CCU CHB must be powered for activation of the MX DISPLAY,
thus this test will not produce MX DISPLAY messages.
(b.) Aft Cargo Compartment
1. SCU Channel A and CCU Channel B powered: This test simulates the deployment of
halon into the AFT cargo compartment using Channel A of the SCU, and Channel B of
the CCU.
2. SCU Channel B and CCU Channel A powered: This test simulates the deployment of
halon into the AFT cargo compartment using Channel B of the SCU, and Channel A of
the CCU. Note: CCU CHB must be powered for activation of the MX DISPLAY,
thus this test will not produce MX DISPLAY messages.
NOTE: These conditions are not a normal configuration for the system and therefore it is
acceptable for the “SYS OK“ LED to be extinguished. As well as for the BTL 1 and BTL 2
LED’s on the CDU not to correspond with the Halon Test Set LED’s.

1. General
A. The fire suppression system, discharge tubes require a pressure test after the system integrity has
been compromised and flow test is to be performed after the system has been discharged to make
sure there is not a blockage in the discharge lines. Additionally, a internal check of the bottle
interconnect plumbing must be performed to make certain no fragments of the rupture disc remain
trapped in the tubing between the No. 1 extinguishing bottle & interconnect tubing tee fitting and the
No. 2 extinguishing bottle & the metering valve. There are three separate and distinct plumbing
‘circuits’ in the halon distribution system.
• The bottle interconnect plumbing
• The AFT distribution system
• The FWD distribution system.
These systems are normally sealed from each other by the diverter valve which is normally closed
except when halon is being deployed. For these reasons, the bottle interconnect plumbing and the
FWD & AFT distribution systems must be pressure/flow tested separately.
D. Perform the Bottle Interconnect Plumbing Test. (Reference Figure 1, Sheet 1, Page 4)
(1.) Remove the cap from the AN827-10D cross. Supply a regulated source of clean, dry nitrogen or
air. The source shall be regulated to 100 ± 10 psig and shall have a shut off valve between the
regulator and the pressure gauge.
(2.) Connect a hose from the pressure gauge to the cross.
(3.) With the regulator closed, open the hand valve on the source pressure.
(4.) Slowly open the regulator pressurizing the bottle interconnect tubing and set the regulated
pressure to 100 ±10 psig. Close the shut off valve and watch the pressure gauge. There may be
an initial decay because of temperature change, but this should stabilize in a few minutes.
(5.) After a few minutes, note the pressure on the pressure gauge and start the timer. Allow a
minimum of two minutes to elapse and note the pressure on the pressure gauge.
(6.) Verify that the pressure leak rate does not exceed 1 psig per minute. If pressure drop is in
excess of the allowable, check all fittings and torque the nuts to 330 to 360 inch pounds for flared
tubing and 380 to 450 inch pounds for distribution tubing, if necessary.
(7.) When the test is complete, disconnect the pressure source and re-torque the cap on the cross
per AMM 20-10-51.
