This Service Bulletin is applicable to all GEnx-1B engines. |
This Service Bulletin has been introduced in production to these GEnx-1B engines: |
• |
|
These serial numbers are the best available data. |
The electronic engine controls (EECs) VIN 114E9586G8 (P/N 2121M82P06), VIN 114E9586G10 (P/N 2447M85P01), VIN 114E9586G11 (P/N 2121M82P07), and VIN 114E9586G12 (P/N 2447M85P02) are affected by this Service Bulletin. |
NOTE: |
|
B. | Description |
This Service Bulletin releases new EECs VIN 115E9084G1 (P/N 2447M85P03) and VIN 115E9084G2 (P/N 2447M85P04) with PS3 heaters. |
C. | Compliance |
Category 6 |
GE recommends that you do this Service Bulletin when the EEC is routed for repair. |
Impact D |
This recommendation is to address a condition that may result in a Delay or Cancellation (D&C). |
NOTE: |
|
This Service Bulletin is offered to improve the reliability or performance of your GE product, or to help prevent the occurrence of the event or condition described in this Service Bulletin. If the operator elects not to participate in the bulletin, that decision will be taken into consideration by GE in evaluating future product performance issues that may arise in the operators fleet. |
D. | Concurrent Requirements |
Do GEnx-1B S/B 75-0035 before or when you do this Service Bulletin. |
E. | Reason |
(1) | Objective: |
To introduce new parts. |
(2) | Condition: |
Moisture in the PS3 system can freeze and lead to operational events. |
(3) | Cause: |
The moisture in the PS3 system is pushed into the EEC/PS3 interface. It freezes there at the cold temperatures seen during cruise, which blocks the PS3 pressure from being read by the EEC. |
(4) | Improvement: |
The new EECs VIN 115E9084G1 (P/N 2447M85P03) and VIN 115E9084G2 (P/N 2447M85P04) provide a PS3 heating system, which will prevent the moisture at the PS3 transducer interface. |
(5) | Substantiation: |
Substantiation is by comparative analysis, analysis, and test. |
F. | Approval |
The data contained in this Service Bulletin has been reviewed by the FAA or authorized entity representing the FAA and the repair(s) and modification(s) herein comply with the applicable Aviation Regulations and are 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. |
