and NO. 2 OIL TEMP circuit breakers on the No. 1 and
No. 2 PDP.
2-3-23. Engine Caution Capsules. 712 The follow-
ing items are in reference to Fig. 2-14-5:
a.
NO. 1 (2) ENGINE OIL LOW. This is illuminated
when approximately 2 quarts of usable oil is remaining in
the engine oil tank.
b.
NO. 1 (2) ENG CHIP DET. This is illuminated if
a detector is bridged by ferrous metal particles which
may indicate impending engine or engine transmission
failure.
c.
NO. 1 (2) ENG N1 CONT. This is illuminated
when the ECL is not in the STOP, GROUND or FLIGHT
detent or when the ECL position does not agree with the
N1 actuator position.
2-3-24. Engine CAUTION/ADVISORY Capsules.
714A The following items are referenced in Fig. 2-14-6:
a
ENG 1 (2) FAIL. Active when the engine failure
logic in the DECU detects a failed engine condition. The
engine failure logic is active when N1 is greater than 60%
and the ECL position is greater than 50_(within 10_ of
FLT position). The engine failure logic in each DECU is
used to recognize any of the following:
(1)
Power turbine shaft failure. N2 is greater
than RRPM by more than 3 percent.
(2)
N1 underspeed.
(3)
Engine flameout.
(4)
Over temperature start abort (Primary mode
only).
(5)
During normal shutdown as the N1 goes be-
low 48 percent the ENG 1 (2) FAIL caution is illuminated
for 12 seconds, this is a BIT self system check.
b.
FADEC 1 (2). Active if Primary FADEC System
hard fails.
c.
REV 1 (2). Active if Reversionary FADEC system
hard fails.
d.
ENG 1 (2) OIL LVL. Active when approximately 2
quarts of usable oil is remaining in the engine oil tank.
e.
ENG 1 (2) CHIP DETR. Active if a detector is
bridged by ferrous metal particles which may indicate
impending engine or engine transmission failure.
f.
ENG CONT PWR. Active when power turbine
inlet temperature is in the contingency power range.
2-3-25. Engine Chip Detectors.
The engine accessory section oil sump and engine trans-
mission chip detectors are electrically connected to the
corresponding NO. 1 or NO. 2 ENG CHIP DET caution
capsule on the master caution panel (fig. 2-14-6). If a
detector is bridged by ferrous metal particles, which may
indicate impending engine or engine transmission fail-
ure, the corresponding NO. 1 or 2 ENG CHIP DET cau-
tion capsule will illuminate. Also, the associated ENGINE
CHIP DETECTOR or ENGINE TRANSMISSION CHIP
DETECTOR magnetic indicator on the MAINTENANCE
PANEL (fig. 2-9-2) will latch. Refer to Chapter 9 for emer-
gency procedures.
2-3-26. Engine Chip Detector Fuzz Burn-Off.
Helicopters equipped with the chip detector fuzz burn -off
system in the engine are identified by a module labeled
PWR MDL CHIP BURN-OFF located below the MAIN-
TENANCE PANEL. The chip detector fuzz burn-off sys-
tem employs an automatically operated fuzz burn-off
electrical circuit with the ability to eliminate nuisance chip
lights caused by minute ferrous metallic fuzz or ferrous
metallic particles on the engine accessory gear box
(AGB) chip detectors. The response time of the fuzz
burn-off circuit is more rapid than that of the helicopter
warning system; thus a successful fuzz burn-off will be
accomplished before any caution capsule on the master
caution panel illuminates. Should the particle or particles
not burn-off, the NO. 1 or NO. 2 ENG CHIP DET caution
capsule will illuminate. Also, the corresponding ENGINE
CHIP DETECTOR or ENGINE TRANSMISSION CHIP
DETECTOR magnetic indicator on the MAINTENANCE
PANEL will latch. Power for the PWR MDL CHIP BURN-
OFF is supplied by the No. 1 DC bus through the HY-
DRAULICS MAINT PNL circuit breaker on the No. 1 PDP.
2-3-27. Engine Interstage Air Bleed.
NOTE
Bleed band oscillations at low torque settings
(approximately 30% torque per engine), indi-
cated by fluctuating RRPM and torque, can
occur and are not cause for engine rejection.
To aid compressor rotor acceleration and prevent com-
pressor stall, an interstage air bleed system is provided
on each engine. A series of vent holes through the com-
pressor housing at the sixth stage vane area allows pres-
surized air to bleed from the compressor area. This en-
ables the compressor rotor to quickly attain preselected
RPM. The pneumatic interstage air bleed actuator con-
trols operation of the air bleed by tightening or loosening
a metal band over the vent holes. Should the bleed band
malfunction and remain open, there would be a notice-
able loss in power. 712 The interstage air bleed system
operates automatically when the ENG COND levers or
the engine beep trim switches are used to govern RPM.
714A The interstage air bleed system operates auto-
matically through the FADEC system.
2-3-28. Engine Drain Valves.
Pressure-operated engine drain valves are in the bottom
of each engine combustion housing. The valves auto-
matically drain unburned fuel from the combustion cham-
ber following an aborted start or whenever the engine is
shut down. One valve is at the forward end of the com-
