This Service Bulletin is applicable to these GEnx-1B engines: |
• |
|
These serial numbers are the best available data. |
The hinged block clamp P/N ER3752P01 and the machine bolt P/N AS3237-08 are affected by this Service Bulletin. |
B. | Description |
This Service Bulletin introduces a new bracket P/N ER6319G01, machine bolts P/N MS9556-08, cushioned clamps P/N J1220G21, and cushioned loop clamp P/N J1432P12. |
C. | Compliance |
Category 7 |
GE recommends that you do this Service Bulletin at customer's convenience/option. |
NOTE: |
|
D. | Concurrent Requirements |
None. |
E. | Reason |
(1) | Objective: |
To introduce new parts and improve maintainability. |
(2) | Condition: |
The hinged block clamp P/N ER3752P01 that attaches the hydraulic supply hose tube and the hydraulic case drain hose tube (hydraulic case tube) tends to move from its original position. The hinged block clamp P/N ER3752P01 tends to move up toward the interface at the strut hanger. This movement could cause that the hydraulic supply hose tube and the hydraulic case tube make contact. |
(3) | Cause: |
The current hinged block clamp P/N ER3752P01 does not have a good retention feature, which allows the movement upwards. |
(4) | Improvement: |
The new design incorporates two cushioned clamps on the hydraulic supply hose tube and a cushioned loop clamp on the hydraulic case tube, all of them attached to a bracket. This bracket has anti-rotation features for two of the three clamps to insure proper orientation of the hose assemblies. |
(5) | Substantiation: |
Substantiation is by comparative analysis. |
F. | Approval |
This Service Bulletin has been reviewed by the FAA and the repair(s) and modification(s) herein comply with the applicable Federal Aviation Regulations and are FAA APPROVED for installation in the model(s) listed in this Service Bulletin. |
G. | Manpower |
No additional man-hours are required to comply with this Service Bulletin. |
H. | Weight and Balance |
Weight and balance are not changed. |
