NONESafety Requirements
NONEProcedure
Refer to SPM TASK 70-31-13-310-501.
Keep accurately to the cleaning policy as described, to avoid damage to the titanium.
Clean the areas around the nicks, cracks or wear on the two sides of the upper and lower air cooling duct assemblies.
SUBTASK 75-24-49-110-075 Clean the Upper and Lower Air Cooling Duct Assemblies
Refer to SPM TASK 70-31-13-310-501.
Use protective gas equipment for purity of welds.
Use CoMat 03-246 WELDING MATERIAL to repair nicks, cracks or wear on tubes.
Use CoMat 03-204 WELDING FILLER WIRE to repair nicks, cracks or wear on housing.
Tungsten inert gas weld the nicks, cracks or wear on the upper and lower air cooling duct assemblies.
SUBTASK 75-24-49-350-099 Weld Repair the Upper and Lower Air Cooling Duct Assemblies
NOTE
Weld repair at the tube/housing connectors is not permitted.Refer to SPM TASK 70-23-05-230-501, medium sensitivity.
No cracks are permitted.
Do the test for cracks.
SUBTASK 75-24-49-230-090 Examine the Welded Areas for Cracks
Use files or hand held stones.
Maximum step of 0.003 in. (0.076 mm) to parent material is permitted.
No raised material is permitted in area A1.
Dress welds smooth on repaired surfaces.
Refer to Repair, VRS4048 (Repair-004) TASK 75-24-49-300-004.
Polish welds in area 1.
SUBTASK 75-24-49-350-100 Dress the Welded Areas
Use Vacuum furnace bottom loading for 2 hours at 887 deg F (475 deg C).
Argon or vacuum atmosphere is acceptable.
Heat treat the upper and lower air cooling duct assemblies.
SUBTASK 75-24-49-350-101 Heat Treat the Upper and Lower Air Cooling Duct Assemblies after Weld Repair of the Tubes
NOTE
If only the upper and lower air cooling duct assemblies housing has been welded, no heat treat is required.Refer to SPM TASK 70-23-02-230-501.
No cracks are permitted.
Do the test for cracks.
SUBTASK 75-24-49-230-091 Do the Post Repair Inspection
