These engines incorporate torquemeters, provi sions for crankcase mounting and double-acting hydraulic propeller provisions. NOTE 5. The ratings of these engines are based on standa rd conditions of temperature and barometric pressure (60 F and 29.92 in.Hg. at sea level) and 80% relative humidity. If corrected to dry standard air conditions, the rated powers would be increased appr oximately 2.5% at sea level to 0.4% at 15,000 ft. for equal manifold pressure settings. NOTE 6. These engines incorporate 3 bl ow-down turbines for exhaust gas power recovery. To insure against secondary damage being caused by a turbine blad e failure, it is required that each turbine wheel be provided with an approved type of guard prior to use in certificated aircraft. These guards should be capable of at least cushioning the energy effects of a failed blade. NOTE 7. The model 988TC18EA1 is sim ilar to the 988TC18EA3 model, except for installation feature differences. The 988TC18EA2 is similar to the 988T C18EA1 except for reduction gear ratio. The models 988TC18EA4, 5 and 6 are similar to models 988TC18EA1, 2 and 3 respectively except for parts variations which permit increased cruise power ratings. 3 E-287 NOTE 8. The 988TC18EA1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 engines are e ligible for use with grade 100/130 at the following ratings for all operations include cruise: With low impeller gear ratio: Max. continuous, hp, rpm, in.Hg. at: Critical pressure altitude (ft.) Sea level pressure altitude 2450-2600-41.5-9400 2380-2600-44.0-S.L. Takeoff (5 min.) hp, rpm, in.Hg. at: Critical pressure altitude (ft.) Sea level pressure altitude 2950-2900-48.0-8500 2880-2900-53.0-S.L. With high impeller gear ratio: Operation with grade 100/130 fuel not permitted. NOTE 9. The following spark plugs are approved on these engines: AC 275, 286A, 288, 298 Champion R103, RHB27P, R HA29E, RHA29N, RHB29E, RHB29N Lodge RS35R (except EA4, 5 and 6) NOTE 10. The wet low ratio takeoff rating of the 981TC18EA1 engine is based on the use of fuel derichment and water-alcohol injection at the rate of 18-1/4 pounds per minute at 26 p.s.i. at the control valve. The water injection fluid should comply with AMS-3006 Type 1 which specifies: Methyl alcohol 48-52% by volume Water 48-52% by volume ....END.....
