Airworthiness Directives; Allied-Signal Inc., Garrett Engine Division, TPE331 Series Turboprop and Model TSE331-3U Turboshaft Engines
Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source
Résumé
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Allied-Signal Inc., Garrett Engine Division, TPE331 series turboprop and Model TSE331-3U turboshaft engines. This action requires inspection of certain third stage turbine stator assemblies, and replacement, if necessary, with serviceable assemblies. This amendment is prompted by reports of six third stage turbine stator assemblies assembled with inner seal supports made of incorrect material that results in a significantly reduced cyclic life. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent an uncontained failure of the third stage turbine wheel.
