Common Information
TASK 72-45-27-200-001-A00 HPT Stage 2 Support Seal - Examine, Inspection-001
General
This TASK gives the procedure for the inspection of the stage 2 HPT seal. For the other stage 2 HPT support assembly parts, refer to TASK 72-45-27-200-000.
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 the SPM TASK 70-20-00-200-501.
All the parts must be cleaned before any part is examined. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-10-00-100-501.
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 72-45-27-230-051. Do the test before the part is visually examined.
A ** following repair referenced in this inspection indicates that the repair is not yet published in the current revision of the manual and the part must be rejected. Contact IAE for additional information concerning FAA approved repair date.
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.

Under magnification the coating will look more porous and rougher than the base metal. The base metal will look smooth.Repair, VRS3322 TASK 72-45-27-300-001
Other than (a)
Wear.
Use a 10X magnifying glass to examine the stage 2 HPT seal at location 1, for wear on the outside diameter contact surface.

Chipped.
Examine the stage 2 HPT seal at location 1 for chipped plasma spray coating on the outside diameter contact surface.

Refer to: Figure
If the axial height is between 0.233 and 0.249in. (5.92 and 6.32 mm). All 25 measurements must be in 0.014in. (0.356 mm) of each other in a free condition. There must be a continuous sealing mark all round the circumference at the outside diameter contact surface and at the inside contact surface (front and rear)
Axial height.
Examine the stage 2 HPT seal at location 2, for a change in the initial shape of the axial height. Measure the seal at 25 equally spaced locations.
