Load Check of the LPC Bleed Valve Mechanism [IAE]


TASK 72-00-00-720-010-A
Load Check of the LPC Bleed Valve Mechanism


1. Reason for the Job
A. This TASK is for V2500-A5 engines.
B. This TASK gives the procedure to make sure that friction force of the LPC bleed valve mechanism is in the limits.
C. Three methods are used to measure the friction force in this TASK.
  • (1) Method 1 is for use of the setting fixture (IAE1J12539). For this method, it is necessary to remove actuator brackets. Operation of this fixtures requires four persons.
  • (2) Method 2 is for use of the inspection fixture (IAE2J12623). For this method, it is not necessary to remove actuator brackets. Operation of this fixtures requires four persons.
  • (3) Method 3 is for use of the setting fixture (IAE1J12514). For this method, it is necessary to remove actuator brackets. Operation of this fixtures requires only two persons. The setting fixture (IAE1J12514) is modified from the setting fixture (IAE1J12539).
    D. Method 1, Method 2 and Method 3 are alternative to each other.
