magneto.
Certification basis Engine Type Certificate No. 301 under CAR 10. Each individually imported engine
must be accompanied by a certificate from the BUREAU VERITAS.
NOTE 1. Maximum permissible temperatures:
Turbine exhaust gas temperatures:
Takeoff, 1125°F. (607°C.)
Maximum continuous, 986°F. (530°C.)
Maximum for starting, 1202°F. (650°C.)
Maximum transient, 1238°F. (670°C.)
Oil inlet temperatures:
104 to 158°F. (40 to 70°C.) For ambient air temperatures -13°F. (-25°C.)
and above with appropriate grade of oil.
86 to 140°F. (30 to 60°C.) For ambient air temperatures below -13°F. (25°C.) with
appropriate grade of oil.
NOTE 2. Fuel and oil pressure limits:
Fuel, at engine inlet, minus 7 to plus 7 psi..
Oil, at engine inlet, minus 7 psi minimum
Normal engine gage pressures are 30 to 70 psig except a minimum of 10 psig is permitted for idling.
NOTE 3. The engine ratings are the minimum guaranteed and are based on the following conditions:
Static sea level conditions of 59°F. and 29.92 in.Hg.
Rated rpm and rated air delivery and turbine gas inlet temperature not more than 1472°F. (800°C.)
for takeoff.
No aircraft accessory loads.
No intake silencer installed.
With standard jet pipe.
With two exhaust gas thermocouples.
Each engine will be stamped with the tailpipe temperature corresponding to rated output. This will be
a maximum of 1065°F. (575°C.) for the takeoff rating, and 986°F (530°C) for the maximum
continuous rating.
NOTE 4. The following aircraft accessory provisions are provided:
Drive
Rotation
(facing drive) Speed Ratio
Static Torque
(in-lb.)
Tachometer
(Jaeger TAFRA)
Clockwise 1:10 10
NOTE 5. This engine is used in helicopters and includes the following special equipment:
Air supply limiter Venturi Turbomeca No. 050.98.000
Intake silencer, ESO 555
Turbomeca starter (manual), No. S.A. 097.01.1000
NOTE 6. This engine meets CAA requirements for adequate turbine disc integrity and rotor blade containment
and does not require external armoring.
NOTE 7. This engine has no provision for anti-icing the inlet and has not been substantiated for use in icing weather.
NOTE 8. Use of any of the specified alternate fuels does not require readjustment of fuel controls. Use of leaded
Aviation Gasoline as an alternate fuel is limited to no more than 25 hours between overhauls as engine
power output will decrease significantly with its extended use.
