3. Job Set-up
Subtask 71-00-00-869-355-A
A. Not Applicable
CAUTION: WIPE CLEAN ALL PARTS AND TOOLS AS NECESSARY TO REMOVE UNWANTED DEBRIS
AND PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE.
4. Procedure
Subtask 71-00-00-910-056-A
A. Engine Operation Limits and Guidelines
(1) Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) limits - fahrenheit (celsius)
(a) Starting: 1982 deg.F (1083.33 deg.C) ground start, 1982 deg.F (1083.33 deg.C) air start.
(b) Takeoff, for up to five minutes: 1982 deg.F (1083.33 deg.C).
(c) Maximum continuous: 1909 deg.F (1042.78 deg.C).
(d) If EGT over temperature occurs at start, idle and higher power, do this procedure
(Ref. AMM TASK 72-00-00-210-809) .
(2) Rotor operation speed limits (redline speed limit) - RPM
(a) Maximum N1: 100 percent (10047 RPM).
(b) Maximum N2: 100 percent (22300 RPM).
(c) If the engine has operated at more than N1 or N2 redline speed limit, do this procedure
(Ref. AMM TASK 72-00-00-210-810) .
(3) Vibration (VIB) guidelines - cockpit units
NOTE: High VIB levels are usual during engine start operations. If high VIB levels return to normal as
the engine becomes stable at idle speed, no troubleshooting is necessary.
(a) N1 rotor: VIB advisory level- 5.0

(b) N2 rotor: VIB advisory level- 5.0
(c) Fan rotor: VIB advisory level- 5.0.
(4) Oil specifications
CAUTION: YOU MUST ONLY USE THE ENGINE OILS SPECIFIED IN SERVICE BULLETIN
PW1000G-D-79-00-0002-00A-930A-D. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO MIX DIF-
FERENT BRANDS OF APPROVED OILS, BUT IT IS PERMITTED IN THE LIMITS
SPECIFIED IN THE SERVICE BULLETIN. THE USE OF UNAPPROVED TYPES OR
BRANDS OF OILS IS NOT PERMITTED AND CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE EN-
GINE.
(a) For a list of approved engine oil brands, types and specifications, refer to oil system Service
Bulletin (SB) PW1000G-D-79-00-0002-00A-930A-D.
(5) Oil pressure limits - psi (bar)
(a) The engine main oil pressure maximum limit is 270 psi (18.62 bar) when the engine is operating
at or above idle speed.

(b) The engine main oil pressure minimum limit varies with the engine N2 speed. The limit ranges
from 65 psi (4.48 bar) for idle speeds 13500 N2 RPM and below, linearly increasing with N2 from
65 psi (4.48 bar) at 13500 N2 RPM to 166 psi (11.45 bar) at redline N2 RPM.
(c) If the main oil pressure is out of the limits, refer to (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-780-802) .
(d) When an engine operates with the main oil pressure below the minimum limit, determine
the cause and perform the corrective action before you continue operation, refer to
(Ref. AMM TASK 79-00-00-281-802) .
(e) The indicated oil pressure can vary between the engines by as much as 45 psi (3.10 bar). This
can happen when you operate at the same oil temperature and N2 speed and will be acceptable
and not be an indication of an oil system malfunction.
(6) Oil temperature limits
(a) The engine main oil temperature maximum limit varies with the engine power level. The limit
decreases from 305 deg.F (151.67 deg.C) at idle power, to 295 deg.F (146.11 deg.C) at cruise
power and to 285 deg.F (140.56 deg.C) at high power.
(b) The engine main oil temperature minimum limit at start is -40 deg.F (-40.00 deg.C) and at takeoff
is 125 deg.F (51.67 deg.C) (Ref. AMM TASK 72-00-00-210-811) .
(7) Oil consumption guidelines
(a) Maximum oil consumption is 0.2 quarts (0.19 liters) per hour.
(b) If engine increases its oil consumption, do a visual inspection of the engine oil system
(Ref. AMM TASK 79-00-00-210-810) .
NOTE: The oil quantity instrument in the cockpit only shows oil quantity in the oil tank. It does
not show oil quantity in the engine. After engine shutdown, oil returns to the oil tank and
cockpit oil indicator shows an increase in oil quantity.
NOTE: Oil consumption is typically quite low in this engine so timely and accurate updates to en-
gine records are necessary to evaluate engine oil condition.
(8) Engine oil leakage limits

(a) The maximum engine seal leakage limits for external oil system components during engine
operation and after shutdown are shown in Table 201 given below. See the figure:
(Ref. Fig. Engine Operation Limits and Guidelines - Engine Drain Location)
Table 201 - Engine External Component Oil Seal Leakage Limits

and control drive seal (DR41) (3.3 drops/minute)

(HYDRAULIC)
Integrated Drive Generator Oil Drain tube 10cc/hour
(IDG) drive seal (IDG) (3.3 drops/minute)
Low Pressure Compressor Oil Drain tube None permitted
(LPC) 2.5 bleed cavity (DR11)

(9) Fuel specifications

(a) Refer to SB PW1000G-D-79-00-0002-00A-930A-D for a list of approved fuels and additives for
use in PW1000G-JM engines.
(10) Engine fuel leakage limits
(a) The maximum engine seal leakage limits for external fuel system components during engine
operation and after shutdown are shown in Table 202 given below. See the figure:
(Ref. Fig. Engine Operation Limits and Guidelines - Engine Drain Location)

Fuel ecology tank Fuel Vent line (FB02) None permitted*
NOTE: *During engine motor-to-start: - If a steady stream of fuel is observed coming from the
overboard vent in the drain mast, the engine should be shut down and restart. If a steady
stream of fuel is observed during the next motor-to-start, replace the ecology tank. - If
fuel leakage is less than or equal to ten drops/minute, proceed to idle. *Engine at idle: -
If a steady stream of fuel is observed coming from the overboard vent in the drain mast
after one minute at idle, the engine should be shut down and restart. If a steady stream
of fuel is observed during the next run to idle, replace the ecology tank. - A fuel leakage
rate of five drops per minute at idle is acceptable and no maintenance action is required.
*After Shutdown: - After engine shutdown, the ecology system may overfill and result in
overboard leakage out the drain mast. A fuel leakage rate of five drops per minute is ac-
ceptable under these conditions and no maintenance action is required. If leakage ex-
ceeds five drops/min, draining the ecology tank is recommended. *Required maintenance
actions if any limits above are exceeded is to replace the ecology tank (or drain the eco-
logy tank if aircraft is at an out station where no replacement ecology tank is available).
(11) Starter operational limits

(a) The starter duty cycle is as follows:
1 Three start attempts
2 35 seconds cooling period between each start attempt
3 15 minutes cumulative cranking
4 Followed by 15 minutes minimum period when N2 speed is zero (0) RPM.

NOTE: The Electronic Engine Control (EEC) will automatically command the Starter Air
Valve (SAV) closed after 15 minutes to ensure the starter duty cycle is not exceed.
(b) The extended starter duty cycle is as follows:

1 15 minutes maximum continuous cranking
2 Followed by 15 minutes minimum period when N2 speed is zero (0) RPM.
NOTE: The EEC will automatically command the SAV closed after 15 minutes to ensure the
starter duty cycle is not exceed.
Subtask 71-00-00-970-068-A
B. Engine Condition Monitoring
(1) The margin adjustment is calculated relative to a "realistic worst case" takeoff flight condition (EGT
margin calculation point).
(2) EGT margin calculation point
NOTE: These points do not show the pinch points where EGT margin is a minimum. Engines with
EGT margin more than zero at the pinch point will have positive EGT margin at all maximum
continuous flight conditions.
