When does the yellow OBOGS TEMP warning appear?

The yellow OBOGS TEMP warning appears specifically when the temperature of the On-Board Oxygen Generation System (OBOGS) exceeds 200 ℉. This warning serves as an important indicator that the system is operating at a temperature outside of its recommended parameters, which could potentially compromise its ability to safely deliver breathable oxygen to the pilot.

Maintaining the temperature within designated limits is crucial for the efficiency and safety of the OBOGS system, as excessive temperatures can affect the operation of the oxygen generation and delivery components. Therefore, this warning prompts immediate attention to ensure that the system is functioning properly and that the pilot's safety is not at risk.

The other scenarios presented do not trigger the yellow TEMP warning. For instance, while an inactive or inoperable OBOGS system would certainly be problematic, they do not relate to temperature levels. Similarly, a system operating below normal temperature would not necessitate a yellow warning, highlighting the specific importance of the 200 ℉ threshold for the OBOGS TEMP warning.
