NOTE 3. Fuel and oil pressure limits are as follows:
Fuel pressure: At inlet to engine system pump, 7.5 p.s.i. above absolute fuel vapor pressure or
1.5 p.s.i. below fuel tank pressure, whichever is higher, with a maximum of 50
p.s.i. above absolute ambient atmosphere pressure.
Oil pressure: At ground idle - 20 p.s.i. minimum
Operating range - 45 to 55 p.s.i.
NOTE 4. Maximum permissible air bleed extraction is as follows:
Percent of primary engine airflow:
Idle to maximum continuous - 2.0%
Maximum continuous to takeoff - 2.0%
NOTE 5. The ratings are based on static test stand operation under the following conditions:
Compressor inlet air at 59oF and 29.92 in. Hg.
P&WA bellmouth on air inlet
No aircraft accessory loads or air extraction
No anti-icing airflow
Free turbine inlet gas temperature limits and engine rotor speed limits not exceeded.

NOTE 8. Power setting, power checks, and control of engine output in all operations is to be based upon P&WA engine charts
referring to free turbine inlet section gas pressures. Pressure probes are included in the engine assembly for this
reason.
NOTE 9. This engine meets FAA requirements for operation in icing conditions, for adequate turbine disk integrity and rotor
blade containment and does not require external armoring.

NOTE 10. The maximum continuous static power at sea level at 17oF (JFTD12A-4A, T73-P-1) and 38oF (JFTD12A-5A, T73-
P-700) ambient temperature and below is 4500 hp (JFTD12A-4A, T73-P-1), and 4800 hp (JFTD12A-5A, T73-P-
700) respectively. The engine installation and operating manual should be consulted for variation in power between
standard and 17oF (JFTD12A-4A, T73-P-1), and 38oF (JFTD12A-5A, T73-P-700).
NOTE 11. JP-1, JP-4 and JP-5 fuels conforming to P&WA Specification No. 522 or P&WA Service Bulletin 2016 may be used
separately or mixed in any proportions without adversely affecting the engine operation or power output. No fuel
control adjustment is required when switching fuel types.
Phillips PFA-55MB anti-icing additive at the use concentration not in excess of 0.15% by volume is approved for
use in fuels conforming to P&WA Specification No. 522 or P&WA Service Bulletin 2016.
For the T73-P-1 and T73-P-700 fuel conforming to MIL-I-5161 E Grade I or II may be used.
NOTE 12. P&WA Turbojet Engine Service bulletin No. 238 lists approved brand oils.
For the T73-P-1 and T73-P-700, in addition to the oils listed in PWA Turbojet Engine Service Bulletin No. 238, oil
conforming to MIL-I-23699A or MIL-I-7808G may be used.

are eligible for use in certificated aircraft; However, these models may not have been operated and maintained in
accordance with the Federal Aviation Regulations contained in CFR Title 14. Use of T73-P-1 and T73-P-700
engines or engine parts in commercial service is prohibited unless specific prior FAA (Engine Certification Office,
ANE-140) approval is granted.
NOTE 14. Certain engine parts are life limited. These limits are listed in the FAA - Approved Pratt & Whitney Aircraft JT12A
