Certification basis CAR 10 (FAR 21.29)Engine Type  Certificate No. E1IN issued 27 March 1962.  
Date of Application for Type Certificate 18 February 1960. 
The aviation authority for France, the Direction Generale de L'Aviation Civile 
(DGAC), originally type certificated this engine. The FAA validated this product 
under U.S. Type Certificate Number E1IN. Effective September 28, 2003, the 
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of this product on 
behalf of France. 
   
Import Requirements To be considered eligible for installation on U.S. registered aircraft, each new 
engine to be exported to the United States with the DGAC or EASA 
airworthiness approval shall have a Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) or EASA 
Form 1, Authorized Release Certificate.  The JAA or EASA Form 1 should state 
that the engine conforms to the type design approved under the U.S. Type 
Certificate E1IN, is in a condition for safe operation and has undergone a final 
operational check. 
 
NOTE 1. Maximum permissible te mperatures: Artouste IIIB, IIIB1  Artouste IIID  
 Gas temperature at turbine outlet:   
 Maximum takeoff (5 min.)550°C(1020°F) - - - - 
 Maximum continuous 500°C (930°F) - - - - 
 (The turbine exhaust gas te mperature is measured by 2 
thermocouples.) 
  
 Oil inlet temperatures for engine operation:   
 32° to 185°F (0° to 85°C) - - - - 
    
NOTE 2. Fuel and oil pressure limits:   
 Fuel, at engine inlet:(4.3 to 11. 6 p.s.i.g. for starting) - - - - 
  (-4.3 to 17.4 p.s.i.g. when operating) - - - - 
 Oil (pressure at engine oil pump ou tlet) Normal: 20 to 70 psig - - - - 
  Minimal:16 psig - - - - 
  Minimum ground idle:10 psig - - - - 
 
NOTE 3. The engine ratings are the minimu m guaranteed and are based on the following: 
  Static sea level standard conditions of 59°F, 29.92 in. Hg.   
 No external air bleed or aircraft accessory power.   
 A typical jet pipe, although the engine is not  sensitive to small differences in tailpipes. 
Exhaust gas temperature is measured by the 2 Turbomeca thermocouples installed on each engine.

NOTE 5. Production engines are normally provided with a sonic orifice limiting engine bleed air to 65 grams per second. 
 When DGAC approved Turbomeca Mod. TU 1 is incorpor ated, bleed flow is orifice limited to 170 grams per 
 second. 
 Horsepower loss is 0.4 kilowatts pe r gram per second (243.5 HP/Lb/sec.) 
 
NOTE 6. The engine is for use on helicopters and includes the following special equipment: 
 Isochronous speed governing system. 
 Automatic sequence device for starting. 
 
NOTE 7. This engine meets FAA requireme nts for adequate turbine disk integrity and rotor blade containment and does 
 not require external armoring. 
 
NOTE 8. This engine has no provision for anti-icing the inlet and has not been substantiated for use in icing weather. 
 
NOTE 9. Fuels shall conform to the speci fications as listed in the table below or to subsequent revisions thereof. 
 The mixing of approved fuels is permitted subject to th e limitations specified under “Remarks:  No adjustment  
 of engine controls is necessary  and no loss of performance occurs.”
