Safety Requirements
NONEProcedure
Use vertical turning lathe and the IAE 3M14441 Grinding/turning fixture 1 off. Remove the damaged honeycomb seal segment fully. Keep the material removal to the minimum to allow subsequent repairs. The minimum acceptable dimension for repair is 0.307 in (7.80 mm). To get this dimension it is permitted to let stay a braze thickness of 0.005 in (0.13 mm).
Machine off the worn honeycomb seal segment.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-325-076 Machine the Damaged Honeycomb Seal Segment
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-11-03-300-503.
Clean the turbine vane.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-110-167 Clean the Stage 7 Turbine Vane
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-12-08-300-503.
Wet abrasive blast the machined area.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-120-064 Wet Abrasive Blast the Stage 7 Turbine Vane
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-11-03-300-503. Use clean gloves when you touch the clean parts.
Clean the turbine vane and seal segment.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-110-168 Clean the Stage 7 turbine Vane and the New Honeycomb Seal Segment
Use the IAE 3M14220 Cross slide table 1 off and spot welding machine.
Install the cross slide table on to the spot welding machine.
Use the IAE 3M14222 Electrode holder 1 off.
Install the electrode holder on to the spot welding machine.
Use the IAE 3M14223 Universal joint electrode 1 off. Make sure that the electrode insert with the mark "OUTER" (part of the universal joint electrode ) is installed.
Install the universal joint electrode on to the electrode holder.
Use the IAE 3M14221 Electrode guide 1 off.
Install the electrode guide on to the cross slide table.
Use the IAE 3M14224 Spot welding fixture 1 off.
Install the spot welding fixture on to the electrode guide.
Use CoMat 03-249 BRAZING FILLER MATERIAL,Ni-BASE. Apply brazing filler tape to the turbine vane mating side of the honeycomb seal segment. Use a roller or equivalent, roll the tape in to the honeycomb cells and remove the backing.
Prepare the new honeycomb seal segment.
Use CoMat 03-148 BRAZING FILLER POWDER. Make sure that the powder is applied equally around the honeycomb seal segment.
Apply brazing filler powder to the honeycomb seal segment.
Use CoMat 03-227 WHITE STOP OFF. Refer to Figure and Figure.
Apply white stop off around the edges of the stage 7 turbine vane.
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-31-07-310-501 and process 2.
Brazing time 30 minutes maximum.
Heating and cooling rates are optional.
Braze.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-310-089 Braze in the New Honeycomb Seal Segment
NOTE
If CoMat 03-249 BRAZING FILLER MATERIAL,Ni-BASE is used perform steps G. to I. if CoMat 03-148 BRAZING FILLER POWDER is used perform steps J. to M.Refer to the SPM TASK 70-11-03-300-503.
Clean the turbine vane.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-110-169 Clean the Stage 7 Turbine Vane
Use 200:1 mixture of water and CoMat 02-142 WETTING AGENT.
or.
1:1 mixture of CoMat 10-061 STODDARD SOLVENT and CoMat 02-143 DELETED.
or.
2500:1 mixture of water and CoMat 01-183 WETTING AGENT FOR ACIDCLEANER.
Prepare fluid tank.
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-31-07-310-501 except for the following:
No unbrazed honeycomb cells around the edges of the honeycomb segment are permitted.
The minimum space between the unbonded areas of more than 0.063 sqin (40.65 sqmm) should be 1.00 in (25.4 mm).
Use the vernier caliper and illuminated comparator magnifier.
No braze filled cells are permitted.
The honeycomb wall thickness must not be increased by more than 0.001 in (0.03 mm) in the area above the braze fillet.
Acceptance limits.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-210-064 Examine the Brazed Honeycomb Seal
Use the IAE 3M14441 Grinding/turning fixture 1 off and grinding machine.
Finish machine the honeycomb seal segment.
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-12-08-300-503 or use wire brush.
De-burr the honeycomb seal segment.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-325-077 Do the Post Repair
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-11-03-300-503.
