Common Information
TASK 72-45-13-200-001-F00 HPT Stage 1 Rotating Inner Air Seal - Examine, Inspection-001
General
This TASK gives the procedure for the inspection of the stage 1 HPT air seal. For the other parts of the stage 1 HPT air seal (inner), refer to TASK 72-45-13-200-000 (INSPECTION-000).
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 TASK 72-45-13-100-000 (CLEANING-000).
All 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 SUBTASK 72-45-13-230-057. 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.

No soot or oil.
Do inspection of HPT for possible oil ignition event. Refer to TASK 72-45-00-200-801. Report all findings to IAE Technical Services.
Soot or oil.

CAUTION
MAKE SURE THAT YOU DO THIS INSPECTION BEFORE YOU CLEAN THE PART OR CLEANING PROCEDURE WILL REMOVE THE INDICATION OF SOOT AND OIL.Examine the Stage 1 HPT air seal at Locations 8 and 9 for soot and oil.
SUBTASK 72-45-13-230-140 Examine the Stage 1 HPT Air Seal (01-020) for Soot and Oil
Clean the part. Refer to TASK 72-45-13-100-000 (CLEANING-000).
NOTE
When you inspect the air seal for cracks make sure you check the important areas. These are shown in Figure.Do the test for cracks on the part that is given below. Use the applicable penetrant inspection procedure. Look carefully at the area around the holes, Location 3 (2 positions) and Location 9 (24 positions), the scallops, Location 5 and the knife-edges.
