The four specific areas to be inspected on the three mounts struts position 1, 3 and 14 are detailed on Figure 1. The calibration block is described on F igure 2.

CFM56-5B S/B 72-0850 December 19, 2012 PAGE 6

ENGINE - LPT Frame Assembly (72-56-00) - Inspection of Turbine Rear Frame on CFM56-5B Engines

(1) Calibrate the eddy current instrument to the initial settin gs as follows:

(a) Permit the eddy current instrument to warm up. Refer to the in structions of the manufacturer.

(b) Set the eddy current instrument to the initial settings as below with the example of Rohmann Elotest B300 instrument.

Instrument type Frequency Range Gain Filters Elotest B300 1 to 2 MHz Preampli fier: auto LP: 100 HP: STATIC

(c) Eddy Current probe(s) from the kit, : 9970-958-574, 9970-95 8-575, 9970-958-576.

(d) Calibration block from the kit, : 9970-958-579. Refer to Fig ure 2.

(e) Apply teflon from the kit, to the probe.

(f) Put the probe of the inspection kit on the calibration standa rd away from the EDM notches and null the probe.

(2) Scan across the EDM notch at a speed equal to the one that will b e used during the inspection and adjust the instrument gain, phase and dot position so that the peak response from the EDM notch dimension 0.020 inch (0,5 mm ) x 0.004 inch (0,1 mm) has an amplitude equal to 1.5 or 2 Volts depending on t he probe. Refer to Figure 3 to Figure 5.

NOTE 1: Repeat the steps 3.B.(1)(e), 3.B.(1)(f) and 3.B.(2) for ea ch probe CFM56-5B S/B 72-0850 December 19, 2012 PAGE 7

ENGINE - LPT Frame Assembly (72-56-00) - Inspection of Turbine Rear Frame on CFM56-5B Engines NOTE 2: Personnel performing these inspections must be certi fied to one of the following: NAS 410 / EN4179 level 2 minimum or any equival ent standard as recognized by the airworthiness authority of the personnel.

Personnel performing this inspections should receive prac tical training in the use of this procedure and must demonstrate pro ficiency in the calibration, inspection and evaluation routines before ac cept/reject authority is delegated.

Training, which can be provided regarding the performance o f this inspection, does not imply that personnel who receive that t raining have met the requirements of inspector certification in accordance with note 2 above.

Contact your customer team if you think you need such a traini ng.

(3) Inspection.

(a) See locations and dimensions of the areas to be inspected:

– Location A, refer to Figure 6, – Location B1, refer to Figure 7, – Location B2, refer to Figure 8.

(b) Inspect 3 areas as follows:

1 Using the appropriate probe, scan in two directions of all th e areas as it is shown on each figure. Pay special attention near the variation of shapes.

– Probe 9970-958-576, Figure 6 location A.

– Probe 9970-958-574, Figure 7 location B1.

– Probe 9970-958-575, Figure 8 location B2.

(c) In case of indication over the limits of the screen (for examp le due to cracks which pass through the thickness of the flange) reduce the amplitude by steps of 6 db as much time as it is necessary to reach an interpretabl e signal.

NOTE: As we perform a manual inspection, the way to inspect has to b e the closest to the theoretic scanning shown on the figures (not strictly).

ENGINE - LPT Frame Assembly (72-56-00) - Inspection of Turbine Rear Frame on CFM56-5B Engines 1 Evaluate the horizontal and vertical indications that are e qual to or more than half of calibration level for each probe.

9970-958-574 and 9970-958-576 : 750 millivolts or 1.5 divis ions.

9970-958-575: 1,000 millivolts or 2 divisions, 2 Clean and re-inspect the area in different scanning directi ons to check the indication.

3 After completion of the indication evaluation procedure, i f the indication is still equal to or more than 1,000 millivolts or 750 millivolt s (depending on the probe used), note the place of the indication on the part.

4 Scan perpendicularly to the defect to determine its length. Refer to Figure

9.

(4) Calibration check.

Do a calibration/check after each area inspection (and or ea ch probe) as follows:

NOTE: The calibration check must be done with initial calibratio n settings.

(a) Do a calibration check after each inspection, when a system c omponent or inspector is changed, or when the inspector suspects a chang e may have occurred in the inspection.

(b) If the peak notch response is within 10% more or less, the cali bration is acceptable.

(c) If the amplitude of the response from the EDM notch has decrea sed by more than 10%, re-calibrate and re-inspect all areas inspected s ince the previous calibration.

(d) If the amplitude of the response from the EDM notch has increa sed by more than 10%, re-calibrate and re-inspect any areas which were p reviously found to be rejected since the previous calibration.

C. Alternative Procedure. Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection (FPI) at piece part level.

CAUTION: PARTS MUST BE THOROUGHLY CLEANED BEFORE BEING SUBJECTED

TO THE FLUORESCENT PENETRANT INSPECTION TO ACCOMPLISH

A PROPER INSPECTION AND TO PREVENT CONTAMINATION OF THE INSPECTION MATERIALS.
