Re: PTU Boeing

As you have asked about the Power Transmission Unit (PTU) of Boeing, I am giving you some information about it, check below for the details

Power Transfer Unit is a device which is part of Boeing hydraulic system

For flight-critical systems such as hydraulics, pneumatics and electrical
power, a number of techniques are used to achieve the level of reliability
required by regulatory agencies.

Duplicating systems, physically separating them and having each one power
dissimilar outputs are three examples of design techniques

The hydraulics architecture on the Boeing 737 is different:


There are two hydraulic systems,
“A” and
“B”, which are always active, and a Standby system activated when a fault is present.

The PTU on the Boeing is only activated when there is a shortage of power to the leading edge flaps and slats.

The PTU is able to operate the hydraulic motor generator during all phases of
flight.

It cycles on whenever an engine is started, and may repeatedly cycle on
and off whenever pressure in one system drops below a certain point.

While it would engage in the event of a failure, in day-to-day operations it is
commonly used during taxiing when one engine is shut down to conserve fuel.
