6、e SAE AEROSPACE TECHNICAL REPORT STYLE MANUAL, NOVEMBER 2005. 1. SCOPE The recommendations cover stowage of all portable cabin emergency equipment, including: a. Oxygen bottles/units b. Oxygen masks c. Fire extinguishers d. Protective breathing equipment (PBE) e. First aid kits f. Emergency/expanded
7、 medical kits and pouches g. Megaphones h. Flashlights i. Life rafts j. Survival kits k. Life preservers l. Flotation seat cushions m. Emergency locator transmitters (ELT) n. Automatic external defibrillators (AED) o. Resuscitation/life support equipment 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this SAE Aerospace
8、 Recommended Practice (ARP) is to establish criteria for the installation and stowage of emergency equipment in the cabin to ensure that the equipment is available and accessible. The goal is to promote expedient access to equipment by encouraging standardization and reducing reorientation of crewme
9、mbers to alternate stowage provisions when changing types, models, and/or series of transport aircraft within an operators fleet.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATI
21、ONS 3.1 Stowage and Location 3.1.1 Each operators equipment stowage and related placards shall be standardized among aircraft types. Placards shall be in accordance with ARP577 and any applicable regulatory requirements. 3.1.2 Equipment shall be stowed in a manner to enhance accessibility. Equipment
22、 for flight attendant stations shall be located in accordance with ARP583. 3.1.3 Equipment stowed behind a passenger seat shall be accessible with the seat in the most adverse position. 3.1.4 Equipment shall be stowed in a manner to minimize the effects of environmental factors such as fire, moistur
23、e, temperature, vibration, impact loading, abuse and tampering. 3.1.5 Sound ergonomic principles shall provide the basis for the selection of stowage locations. 3.1.6 Stowage locations should allow equipment to be readily accessible to persons, ranging in stature, from the 5th percentile female thro
24、ugh the 95th percentile male. 3.1.7 Equipment shall be installed to minimize the probability of jamming access doors and release mechanisms during the ultimate inertial loading conditions specified in 14CFR25.561.
