In this video, I will show you the way we can check the condition of A320 CFM56-5B oil system. Exactly I will show you master chip detector. There is a red pop-out indicator visible from the oil-servicing door. If
extended, this indicates that the Electrical Master Chip Detector (EMCD)
is contaminated and the probe should be checked. To reset red pop-out
indicator, pushing in clogging indicator with thumb.
The EMCD probe is located on the lubrication unit and is made up of
two magnets separated by a gap. The probe will collect any magnetic
particles in the oil system. If the particle contamination closes the gap
between the magnets an electrical signal is generated to extend the pop-out indicator.
