B. | Description |
This Service Bulletin releases the GEnx-1B/P2 new hardware names and part numbers (P/N) information to the Engine Illustrated Parts Catalog (EIPC). This Service Bulletin also provides instructions to convert the engine from a GEnx-1BXX/G03, GEnx-1BXX/G04, or GEnx-1BXX/P1G01 to GEnx-1BXX/P2G01 configuration. |
Revision 2 removes the acoustic liners from the upgrade kits because they can now be reworked. |
Revision 2 releases the rake/non-rake intermix allowance for the propulsor/fan in the interchangeability statement. |
Revision 3 of this Service Bulletin updates the testing requirements, adds reference to the new upgraded fan module assembly P/N 2305M15G12, and clarifies the deflector panel interchangeability. |
Revision 4 of this Service Bulletin incorporates the new electronic engine control (EEC) configuration with PS3 heaters, specified in GEnx-1B S/B 73-0076, and the engine monitoring unit (EMU) kit P/N 738L787G05, specified in GEnx-1B S/B 77-0013. |
Revision 5 of this Service Bulletin removes the new EEC configuration with PS3 heaters, specified in GEnx-1B S/B 73-0076, as this is not required for an upgrade and can be done at anytime. |
C. | Compliance |

E. | Reason |
(1) | Objective: |
To introduce the new GEnx-1B/PIP2 engine model and associated new parts to the Engine Illustrated Parts Catalog (EIPC) and provide configuration conversion instructions. |
(2) | Condition: |
The GEnx-1B/P2 model includes upgrades to improve performance and durability. |
(3) | Cause: |
Product improvement. |
(4) | Improvement: |
This Service Bulletin introduces the GEnx-1B/P2 configuration which improves fuel efficiency of the GEnx-1B engine. Depending on engine operating characteristics and configuration, this Service Bulletin can improve specific fuel consumption (SFC) of the GEnx-1B and GEnx-1B/P1 engines. |
(5) | Substantiation: |
Substantiation is by analysis and test. |
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 |
The man hours required to accomplish this Service Bulletin are equivalent to the time required to perform a full performance restoration workscope. |
H. | Weight and Balance |
The complete compliance with this Service Bulletin for the conversion from GEnx-1BXX/G03 to the GEnx-1BXX/P2G01 configuration increases weight by 47 lb (21.32 kg). The complete compliance with this Service Bulletin for the conversion from GEnx-1BXX/G04 or GEnx-1BXX/P1G01 to the GEnx-1BXX/P2G01 configuration does not change the weight. The balance for all configurations has not changed. |
