Common Information

TASK 72-00-00-200-004-A00 Engine General - Examine (Borescope) The HPT Stage 1 Blades, Inspection-004

General

All Fig/item numbers in the procedure agree with those used in the IPC. Only the primary Fig/item numbers are used. For the service bulletin alpha variants refer to the IPC.

For all parts identified in a different Chapter/Section/Subject, the applicable Chapter/Section/Subject comes before the Fig/item number.

For standard torque data and procedures refer to the SPM TASK 70-41-00-400-501, SPM TASK 70-41-00-400-501 and SPM TASK 70-41-01-400-501.

Special torque data is identified with the symbol * after the torque value.

Assembly tolerances are included in this procedure.

Lubricate all threads and abutment faces of nuts and bolts with CoMat 10-077 APPROVED ENGINE OILS, unless other lubricants are referred to in the procedure.

The number for each radial location must be identified in a clockwise direction. These start at the engine top position when you look from the rear of the engine, unless stated differently in the procedure.

Definitions and General Information

This TASK is for inspection of A1 engines only. This TASK gives the procedure for the borescope inspection of the stage 1 HPT blades and duct segments. This TASK recommends the use of a flexible borescope. You can use a rigid borescope to inspect for general damage to the blades, but a rigid borescope will not permit you to see sufficient detail to inspect the blades or duct segments to the limits in this TASK.

Pre SBE 72-0221: Borescope ports are identified in Figure, Figure and Figure.

SBE 72-0221: Borescope ports are identified in Figure, Figure and Figure.

The names of the different parts and areas of the Stage 1 HPT blades are shown Figure.

Use the names which follow when you identify a blade condition seen at borescope inspection:

Erosion: A local area where material has been removed by causes other than heat distress.

Leading Edge Burn-Through: A hole in the leading edge open to the cooling air passage.

Burns: A local area where material has been removed because of heat distress.

Coating damage: Chipping, flaking, blistering, peeling or oxidation of blade confined to coating.

Trailing edge metal loss: A burn through the convex trailing edge wall that causes a shorter airfoil chord length

Use the names which follow when you identify a duct segment condition seen at borescope inspection:

Cracks: A linear opening that can easily be seen and which can cause the material to break.

Closed loop of cracks: Adjoining cracks that close in on themselves.

Intersecting cracks: One or more axial or circumferential cracks that go through each other.

Burns: A local area where material was removed because of heat distress.

Burn-Through: A hole in the duct segment gas path side which is open to the cavity behind it.

Erosion: A local area where material was removed by causes other than heat distress.

Leading edge (LE) lifting: When the duct segment leading edge has become loose and can move radially inward.

Impingement plate: The wall that seals the internal cavity from the backside of the duct segment.

Shiplap: Location where adjoining duct segments overlap.

NOTE

To identify the consumable materials refer to the PCI.

NOTE

Special tools are identified in the procedure by the tool primary number.

NOTE

If damage is not listed contact your IAE representative.

NOTE

Individual crack limits still apply to a closed loop of cracks.

NOTE

A crack that is wider than 0.050 in. (1.27 mm) over the cooling pocket is considered a burn-through.

WARNING

THE ENGINE IS HOT IMMEDIATELY AFTER SHUTDOWN AND CAN CAUSE BURNS AND DAMAGE TO THE BORESCOPE EQUIPMENT. WAIT 2 TO 3 HOURS AFTER SHUTDOWN BEFORE YOU DO A BORESCOPE INSPECTION.

CAUTION

THE LIMITS WHICH FOLLOW ARE APPLICABLE ON A CONTINUE IN SERVICE BASIS ONLY. EACH LIMIT IS BASED ON WHAT THE STRUCTURE OF THE BLADE MUST BE AND DOES NOT INDICATE THAT THERE WILL NOT BE A DETERIORATION OF THE ENGINE PERFORMANCE, STABILITY, OPERATING LIMITS OR PART REPAIRABILITY.

Procedure

    1. SUBTASK 72-00-00-420-057 Install the Foot-Operated Motor Drive Unit to the Gearbox Crank Pad

    2. Refer to: Figure

    3. Install the foot-operated motor drive unit to the gearbox crank pad.

    1. SUBTASK 72-00-00-420-058-A00 Install the Guide Tube and the Flexible Borescope into the IP1 Borescope Port to Examine the Stage 1 Blades, thru (Pre SBE 72-0221)

    2. Refer to: Figure and Figure

    3. Remove the igniter plug.

    4. Do not remove the igniter insert.

    5. Put the flexible borescope into the IAE 2P16204 Guide Tube 1 off until the end of the borescope is even with the end of the tube. This will be a limit mark on the borescope so you will not insert the borescope too far and cause damage to the borescope.

    6. Put a piece of CoMat 02-024 MASKING TAPE (CREPE PAPERBACKING) on the borescope fiber bundle 3.250in. (82.55 mm) from the other end of the guide tube.

    7. Put the end of the tube nearest the tape mark in the down position and the plane of the tube at a right angle to the engine axis.

      1. Install the tube into the IP1 port.

      2. As the tube is put in, turn it clockwise carefully and connect the fitting to the igniter insert.

      3. Push the guide tube in until it touches the stop.

        NOTE

        1. In this position, the slot in the stop will be up.

        2. A cover for the eye which is not used will decrease eye tension.

        3. If you use an adjustable clamp to hold the borescope, you will be able to easily move the borescope dial and the fiber bundle.

        4. Some borescope units have closed-circuit television adapters. We highly recommend this unit.

      4. Turn the guide tube clockwise until it stops. Hold the tube in this position and tighten the locking wheel to secure the guide tube.

      5. Slowly push in the borescope through the guide tube while looking through the eye piece.

      6. CAUTION

        MAKE SURE THAT THE BORESCOPE TIP IS NOT IN THE PATH OF THE STAGE 1 HPT BLADES BEFORE YOU TURN THE ENGINE.

        NOTE

        At this point, the borescope is between two Stage 1 HPT vanes and at a location to see the concave side of the Stage 1 HPT blades.

        Move the borescope end slightly, while pushing in, and find the Stage 1 HPT blades. Turn the borescope fiber bundle to help you locate the stage 1 HPT blades. Do not push the borescope past the tape mark.

      1. Install the tube into the IP1 port.

      2. As the tube is put in, turn it clockwise carefully and connect the fitting to the igniter insert.

      3. Push the guide tube in until it touches the stop.

    1. SUBTASK 72-00-00-220-093 Examine the Stage 1 HPT Duct Segments

      1. If an engine is in the shop for maintenance other than the HPT, you must do a 360-degree inspection of the stage 1 HPT duct segments.

      2. Damage in columns A and B will need reduced on-wing inspections of either 300 hours or 125 hours if you do not replace the damaged duct segments. It is recommended that, because of the reduced inspection intervals, you review the timing of the next maintenance interval for the HPT and find out if you must replace the duct segments before you return the engine to service.

      3. Damage in Column C means you must replace the duct segments before you return the engine to service.

        NOTE

        The HPT Stage 1 BOAS has a protective coating underneath the ceramic coating. Chipping and spalling of the ceramic coating is acceptable without a decrease in borescope inspection Interval. The smearing of blade tip material on the HPT Stage 1 BOAS is acceptable without a decrease in the borescope inspection interval.
