• |
|
These serial numbers are the best available data. |
The gasket P/N 2464M66P01 is affected by this Service Bulletin. |
B. | Description |
This Service Bulletin introduces a new gasket P/N 2819M11P01 for the exhaust gas temperature (EGT) probe. |
C. | Compliance |
Category 7 |
GE recommends that you do this Service Bulletin at customer's convenience after the old parts are all used. |
Impact E |
This recommendation is to improve the cost of ownership, reduce maintenance requirements or is a product improvement. |
NOTE: |
|
D. | Concurrent Requirements |
None. |
E. | Reason |
(1) | Objective: |
To introduce a new part. |
(2) | Condition: |
If the gasket is not properly installed, hot air leaks causing high under cowl temperatures could result. |
(3) | Cause: |
When attaching the EGT probe to the flanged mounting pad of the turbine center frame (TCF) outer case, the current gasket design allows for installation with improper orientation. |
(4) | Improvement: |
The new gasket adds a lip on the forward side (countered side of the gasket) to ease the installation and to assure that the gasket is installed with the proper orientation. Also, the lip will be visible during the shop inspection. |
(5) | Substantiation: |
Substantiation is by analysis and comparative analysis. |
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 |
After you get access to the gasket, you will need approximately 0.5 man-hour for each engine or component. |
H. | Weight and Balance |
Weight and balance are not changed. |
