General

This TASK gives the procedure for the inspection of the stage 1 HPT support assembly.

Fig/item numbers in parentheses in the procedure agree with those used in the IPC.

The policy that is necessary for inspection is given in SPM TASK 70-20-00-200-501.

All the parts must be cleaned before any part is examined. Refer to SPM TASK 70-10-00-100-501.

All the parts must be visually examined for damage, corrosion and wear. Any defects that are not identified in the procedure must be referred to IAE.

The procedure for those parts which must have a crack test is given in Step and Step. Do the test before the part is visually examined.

Do not discard any part until you are sure there are no repairs available. Refer to the instructions in Repair before a discarded part is used again or oversize parts are installed.

Parts which should be discarded can be held although no repair is available. The repair of a discarded part could be shown to be necessary at a later date.

All parts must be examined to make sure that all the repairs have been completed satisfactorily.

The practices and processes referred to in the procedure by the TASK numbers are in SPM.

    2. Refer to Figure.

      NOTE

      The seal may be measured in a free or held condition. If the seal is measured in a held condition, hold the seal at Surface E. The measurement in a held condition can be done with the seal installed on the Stage 1 Support Assembly.
      1. Examine the Stage 1 HPT seal at Location 1 for the axial height dimension on the outer diameter rear contact face.

        1. Axial height.

          1. If the dimension is between 0.309 in. and 0.322 in. (7.85 mm and 8.18 mm).

          2. Accept.

          1. If the dimension is less than 0.309 in. (7.85 mm).

          2. Repair, VRS3678 TASK 72-44-10-300-021 (REPAIR-021).

            NOTE

            When you use a 10X magnification glass, the coating must look more porous and rougher than the base material which will look smooth and constant.
      1. Examine the seal at Location 2 for wear through the coating at the seal mark that is continuous around the full circumference on the outer diameter rear contact face. Use a 10X magnification glass.

        1. Wear.

          1. If the base material is not shown.

          2. Accept

          1. Other than Step.

    1. SUBTASK 72-44-10-220-203 Examine the Stage 1 HPT Seal (01-060) for Wear on the Inner Conical Diameter

    2. Refer to Figure.

      NOTE

      The seal conical gage point diameter at Location 2001 is 26.960 in. to 26.964 in. (684.78 mm to 684.89 mm). Refer to the following dimensions:
      Location 3 is the 24 to 26 degree conical surface.
      Location 4 is the 0.078 in. (1.98 mm) gage point dimension.
      1. Examine the Stage 1 HPT seal at Location 2001 for wear on the inner conical diameter.

        1. Wear.

          1. If the conical gage point diameter is between 26.960 in. to 26.964 in. (684.78 mm to 684.89 mm).

          2. Accept.

          1. Other than Step.
