NOTE 6. Propellers to be used with this engine must have functioning characteristics which are compatible with the engine and its
control system.
NOTE 7. Engine control equipment which is aircraft mounted includes the following: relay box, temperature adjustment box (not
required with transistorized temperature datum system), temperature datum control amplifier, torquemeter phase detector
(not required for 501-D13H), torquemeter indicator, water-methanol regulator (501-D13H and -D22C).

for max continuous for the 501-D22; 4600 hp for takeoff and 4300 hp for max continuous for the 501-D22A and -D22C; and
4600 hp for takeoff and 4161 hp for max continuous for the 501-D22G.
NOTE 9. This engine meets FAA requirements for adequate turbine disc integrity and rotor blade containment and does not require
external armoring.
NOTE 10. The maximum overspeed limit is 16,000 rpm for momentary transients and 14,900 rpm for power transients. When these
limits are exceeded, or speeds outside the normal limits of 13,680 to 13,960, or 13,544 to 14,096 for the 501-D22 series are
encountered repeatedly during flight operation, consult the maintenance instructions for corrective action.

NOTE 11. Use of grade 80/87 aviation gasoline is limited to 1000 hours between engine overhauls. Use of any grade of aviation
gasoline higher than 80/87 is limited to 100 hours between engine overhauls. Gasoline containing TCP, Boron or similar
additives shall not be used. All approved fuels may be used separately or mixed in any proportions without adversely
affecting engine operation or power output. No fuel control adjustment or system purging is required when switching fuel
types. Anti-icing additives conforming to MIL-I-85470 are approved for use in fuels in amounts not to exceed 0.15% by
volume. Shell ASA-3 anti-static additive is approved for use at a concentration that will provide not in excess of 300
conductivity units, which is equivalent to one ppm.
NOTE 12. Refer to the appropriate Customer Service Letters for approved oil types, limitations on mixing of oils and all other oil details.
NOTE 13. The 501-D13A is similar to the 501-D13 except for provision for Hamilton Standard propeller.
The 501-D13D is similar to the 501-D13 except for D.C. generator drive provisions and the rear mount is on the bottom of
the diffuser.
The 501-D13E is similar to the 501-D13 except the rear mount is on the bottom of the diffuser.
The 501-D13H is similar to the 501-D13D except for provisions for water-methanol injection.
The 501-D22 is similar to the 501-D13A except for a shrouded turbine, the gear box is offset up, and there are no auto-
feathering provisions.
The 501-D22A (Engine P/N 6870231 or Power Section P/N 6870232) is similar to the 501-D22 except for air-cooled first
stage turbine blades, vanes and stalk blades in all four turbine stages.
The 501-D22A (Engine P/N 23090863 or Power Section P/N 23090864) is similar to the 501-D22A (Engine P/N 6870231 or
Power Section P/N 6870232) except for compressor wheels, un-cooled first stage turbine blades, vanes and stalk blades in
all four turbine stages.
The 501-D22C is similar to the 501-D22A (Engine P/N 6870231 or Power Section P/N 6870232) except the gearbox is offset
down and has integral mount pads, and for provisions for water-methanol injection.
The 501-D22G is similar to the 501-D22C except water-methanol injection is deleted, a three-mount system is employed,
and provisions for auto-feather have been added. Also, the 501-D22G takeoff and maximum continuous ratings and
limitations have been revised to reflect a more accurate power versus turbine inlet temperature relationship.
NOTE 14. The engine-mount systems:
(a) Models 501-D13, -D13A, -D13D, -D13E, -D13H, -D22, -D22A, -D22G
Three-mount system consisting of one on each side of gearbox with a vertical mount at diffuser section. Basic
configuration.
(b) Models 501-D13 and -D13A
Four-mount system consisting of mount on each side of gearbox with one vertical and lateral mount at diffuser. No
change in weight of C.G. location.
(c) Models 501-D13, -D13A, and -D22C
Six-mount system consisting of a mount on each side, one at top and one at bottom of gear box with a vertical and
lateral mount at the diffuser section. Weight increase 17 lb; C.G. location moves to 60.9 for the 501-D13 and -D13A.
NOTE 15. For operation with water-methanol injection, water flow rate is 8 gal per minute at a pressure between 140 and 200 psig.
This permits operation at rated takeoff power with water-methanol solution to consist of 67 ± 5% purified water, Rolls-Royce
Spec. EMS-120 or equivalent and 33 ± 5% alcohol, Rolls-Royce Spec. EMS-125 or equivalent.
NOTE 16. 501-D13 engines which have been exported and are returned to the United States for certification must have 1st to 2nd Stage
Turbine Wheel Spacer (P/N 6796871) removed before being eligible for airworthiness certification.
NOTE 17. Life limits established for critical components are published in the Rolls-Royce Commercial Service Letter CSL-120 for -D13,
-D13A, -D13D, -D13E, and -D13H engines and CSL-1001 for -D22, -D22A, -D22C, and -D22G engines.
8 E-282
NOTE 18. A major design change published in the Rolls-Royce Commercial Engine Bulletin CEB 72-1153 releases the engine
enhancement package to the -D22A service configuration. The -D22A engine (Engine P/N 23090863 or Power Section P/N
23090864) has identical ratings and limitations as the -D22A engine (Engine P/N 6870231 or Power Section P/N 6870232).
To remove potential asymmetrical power between engines, no inter-mixing of the -D22A engine (Engine P/N 23090863 or
Power Section P/N 23090864) and -D22A engine (Engine P/N 6870231 or Power Section P/N 6870232) is permissible on a
multi-engine aircraft.
