Common Information
TASK 72-45-23-200-004-F00 HPT Stage 1 Duct Segment - Examine, Inspection-004
General
This TASK gives the procedure for the inspection of the stage 1 HPT duct segment 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 the SPM TASK 70-20-00-200-501.
All the parts must be cleaned before any part is examined. Refer to TASK 72-45-23-100-000 (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 Step. Do the test before the part is visually inspected.
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 the SPM.

Clean the part. Refer to TASK 72-45-23-100-000 (CLEANING-000).
Repair, VRS3772 TASK 72-45-23-300-022 (REPAIR-022).
Base metal cracks, all areas.
Do the test for cracks on the part this is given below. Examine the metal surfaces at location 11. Do not examine the ceramic coated areas at location 14. Look carefully at the metering cover at location 2 and the hooks, attachment slot and shiplap surfaces at locations 1, 4, 12 and 18. Use the applicable penetrant procedure.

Hooks (location 1), nicks, dents, gouges and similar surface imperfections are permitted to 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) depth, if they are smooth bottomed and not in the fillet radii under the hooks. Outside of the fillet radii and ID surfaces, isolated surface imperfections are permitted to 0.040 in. (1.02 mm) depth, if they are smooth bottomed and no two adjacent hooks are affected. The total affected area on each hook is less than 0.016 sq in. (10.32 sq mm) and no imperfection spans more than 0.100 in. (2.54 mm) circumferentially. For hooks with multiple surface imperfections only one can be more than 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) depth.
Shiplap surfaces (location 4 and 18), nicks, dents, gouges and similar surface imperfections are permitted to 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) depth, if they are smooth bottomed and not in the fillet radii, isolated surface imperfections are permitted to 0.040 in. (1.02 mm) depth, if they are smooth bottomed, the total affected area is less than 0.016 sq in. (10.32 sq mm) and no imperfection spans more than 0.100 in. (2.54 mm) axially. For multiple surface imperfections, only one can be more than 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) deep.
All other surfaces, nicks, dents, gouges and similar surface imperfections are permitted to 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) depth, if they are smooth bottomed. Isolated surface imperfections are permitted to 0.040 in. (1.02 mm) depth, if fillet radii, metering cover, cooling holes and hook web are not affected, the imperfection is smooth bottomed and total affected area is less than 0.050 sq in. (32.26 sq mm). All imperfections more than 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) in depth must be separated by 0.010 in. (0.25 mm) minimum. Imperfections on axial and circumferential faces spanning more than half of the face width are not permitted.

Do the airflow procedure for the Stage 1 HPT duct segment assembly by Repair, VRS3738 TASK 72-45-23-300-019 (REPAIR-019).
NOTE
If you did or will do an airflow check as a requirement of Repair 022 (Refer to Repair, VRS3772 TASK 72-45-23-300-022 (REPAIR-022)) then this SUBTASK is not necessary.If the airflow is more than the maximum, it is permissible to remove debris or blockage by method that is not detrimental to the part or do Repair-022 (Refer to Repair, VRS3772 TASK 72-45-23-300-022 (REPAIR-022)).
If the airflow is less than than the minimum, do Repair-022 (Refer to Repair, VRS3772 TASK 72-45-23-300-022 (REPAIR-022)).
If the airflow is not satisfactory, do one of the steps that follow:
