Inspection/Check of Foreign Object Damage (FOD) (Bird Strike Included) [CFMB]

TASK 72-00-00-200-006-A
Inspection/Check of Foreign Object Damage (FOD) (Bird Strike Included)

WARNING: THERE IS A POSSIBLE HEALTH RISK TO PERSONNEL WHO DO MAINTENANCE TASKS AFTER A BIRD STRIKE. THE SAFETY MEASURES THAT FOLLOW ARE RECOMMENDED:

USE DISPOSABLE GLOVES.
USE CUT RESISTANT GLOVES OVER THE DISPOSABLE GLOVES.
USE A DISPOSABLE COVERALL IF THERE IS A RISK OF BODY CONTACT WITH THE BIRD REMAINS (ORGANIC MATTER) DURING FEATHER COLLECTION OR ENGINE CLEANING.
DO NOT USE PRESSURIZED AIR OR WATER TO CLEAN THE PARTS WHICH WERE IN CONTACT WITH THE BIRD.
REMOVE THE BIRD REMAINS AND PUT THEM IN A PLASTIC BAG.
DO NOT TOUCH YOUR FACE, EYES, NOSE, ETC. WITH YOUR GLOVES.
REMOVE THE GLOVES AND THE DISPOSABLE COVERALL AND PUT THEM IN THE SAME PLASTIC BAG AS THE REMAINS. SEAL THE BAG.
DISCARD THE BAG AS YOU DO FOR USUAL GARBAGE.
CAREFULLY WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP AND WATER.

WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DO WORK ON THE ENGINE PARTS AFTER THE ENGINE SHUTDOWN. USE APPLICABLE THERMAL GLOVES. THE ENGINE PARTS CAN STAY HOT FOR ONE HOUR AFTER SHUTDOWN AND CAN BURN YOU.

NOTE: In any case, operators and maintenance personnel should comply with the recommendations of the local medical authorities. The requirements of the relevant medical authority take precedence over any CFM guidelines in these matters and their advice must always be sought.

NOTE: Parts of remains can be used to determine the bird species ingested. You can contact CFM for further information.

4. Procedure
Subtask 72-00-00-210-062-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. Visual Inspection

NOTE: Visual inspection must be done without part removal. Refer to the hereafter referenced tasks to find the inspection criteria and apply these criteria only on the visible parts.

(1) Possible damage to the spinner front and rear cones (Ref. AMM TASK 72-21-00-210-005).
(2) General condition of the fan rotor blades (Ref. AMM TASK 72-21-00-210-009).
(3) Wear of abradable material in the fan inlet case (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-210-004).
(4) Condition of the acoustical panels that may have been damaged as a result of interference with the blade tip (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-210-004).
(5) Condition of the splitter fairing and the booster inlet guide vanes (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-210-004) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-21-00-210-007).
(6) Condition of the fan Outlet Guide Vanes (OGV) and seals of the fan OGV inner shroud (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-210-003).
(7) Damage to T12 sensor probe (Ref. AMM TASK 73-21-40-210-002).

Subtask 72-00-00-220-172-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

B. Condition of Exhaust and Stage 4 Low Pressure Turbine (LPT) Blades
(1) Do a visual inspection thru the exhaust nozzle of the LPT stage 4 blades for shingling or damage.
(a) If stage 4 LPT blades unlatch condition or other indication is found, do a borescope inspection of the stage 4 LPT blades (Ref. AMM TASK 72-54-00-290-006).

Subtask 72-00-00-280-057-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

C. Gaspath Inspection
(1) FOD associated with normal engine parameters.
(a) Do the step that follows if one or more of these conditions apply:

FOD event has resulted in fan blade missing material/fan blade damage beyond serviceable limits.
FOD event struck fan blades radially inward of mid span shroud.
Evidence of debris has entered the booster inlet, ie: damage or debris on spinner front and rear cones, stage 1 booster vane or splitter fairing.

NOTE: The borescope inspection may be delayed 25 flight hours or 10 flight cycles (whichever comes first) provided FOD did not result in missing material to the fan blades. Service extension is only permitted on one engine in the event of a dual engine FOD.

1 Do a borescope inspection of the High Pressure Compressor (HPC) stages 1, 4 and 8 (Ref. AMM TASK 72-31-00-290-002).
a If damage is found, inspect the other stages (Ref. AMM TASK 72-31-00-290-002).
2 Do a borescope inspection of the combustion chamber dome assembly after a bird strike/ingestion event (Ref. AMM TASK 72-42-00-290-005).
3 If the engine is PRE CFM SB 72-0418, do a borescope inspection of the stage 5 booster blades (Ref. AMM TASK 72-21-00-290-003). Examine carefully the concave and convex sides of stage 5 booster blades in area E. Examine carefully the blades around blade locks area.
(2) FOD associated with abnormal engine parameters.
(a) If ECAM warnings "FAN VIB HIGHER THAN OR EQUAL TO 6 UNITS AND LOWER THAN 8 UNITS" or "FAN VIB HIGHER THAN OR EQUAL TO 8 UNITS" are displayed, then do the troubleshooting procedure TSM 77-00-00-810-864.
(b) If FOD event was associated with abnormal parameters or with surge, or stall or flameout, do the steps which follow:

NOTE: Abnormal engine parameters mean a mismatch or significant shift on N2, WF, or EGT as well as abnormal accel and decel.

1 Do a borescope inspection of the booster (Ref. AMM TASK 72-21-00-290-003).

If the engine is PRE CFM SB 72-0418, do a borescope inspection of the stage 5 booster blades (Ref. AMM TASK 72-21-00-290-003). Examine carefully the concave and convex sides of stage 5 booster blades in area E and the blades around blade locks area.

2 Do a borescope inspection of the HPC stages 1, 4 and 8 (Ref. AMM TASK 72-31-00-290-002).
a If damage is found, inspect the other stages (Ref. AMM TASK 72-31-00-290-002).

CAUTION: DO THE FOD INSPECTION IN THE AMM. BIRD STRIKE FOD DAMAGE CAN CAUSE MISALIGNMENT OF THE FUEL NOZZLE AND BURN-THROUGH DAMAGE OF THE CDN CASE CAN OCCUR.

3 Do a borescope inspection of the combustion chamber dome area (Ref. AMM TASK 72-42-00-290-005).
4 Do a maximum power assurance check (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-710-008).
