Introduction Borescope inspection is an important practice on any aircraft. Inspection requirements vary by engine type, and in-service activity. Additionally, an inspection may also be called when performance has started to lag.

Whenever you perform your inspection, a special focus needs to fall on the engine and techniques required. A modern jet engine is made to withstand extreme circumstances along with efficient and prolonged use, but they are still subject to damage and wear. Routine inspection and maintenance can help prevent most instances of engine failure and prolong the life of the engine in service. During engine borescope inspection the operator can spot issues that indicate future, or imminent failure.

During a complete inspection using a borescope, most issues can be found before they become an issue. This module has been prepared as part of your continuation training.

Remember to always refer to the correct and current issue of the AMM prior and during an inspection. For training purposes please study the information from the aircraft maintenance manual attached.

(g) Attach the applicable borescope to the light cable, or attach the flexible borescope to the

light source box.

(h) Set the power supply to the ON position.

SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-202-R02

(2) Do these steps to use the borescope inspection equipment:

NOTE: After the removal of the borescope plug, it is possible for the HPNGV support ring heat

shield to move on the support ring. There can be axial or circumferential movement

and the two are caused by deterioration of the heat shield. This movement can close

part of the borescope port 'G' on the HP turbine. You can position the heat shield

correctly with your hands to permit the borescope to be put into the port. The engine is

satisfactory with a heat shield that is loose.

(a) Put the borescope through the applicable opening for the inspection to be done.

(b) Turn the IP or the HP system for the compressor or turbine inspection

(PAGEBLOCK 72-00-00/201).

(c) Refer to the applicable inspection.

1) IP Compressor

2) HP Compressor

3) Combustion liners and HPNGV

a) If the inspection through the fuel spray nozzle aperture, do the steps that

follow:

<1> Do an inspection through the fuel spray nozzle aperture.

<a> Remove the borescope stop adapter, if it is attached.

CAUTION

MAKE SURE THE BORESCOPE DOES NOT MOVE

FORWARD OF THE HP OUTLET GUIDE VANES. IF

YOU DO NOT, THE BORESCOPE WILL HIT THE HP

COMPRESSOR STAGE 6 ROTOR BLADES WHEN

THE HP SYSTEM IS TURNED.

MAKE SURE THE FLEXIBLE BORESCOPE DOES

NOT CATCH THE INTERNAL PARTS OF THE

ENGINE.

IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS, DAMAGE TO THE

BORESCOPE COULD OCCUR. ALSO, DAMAGE TO

THE POWER PLANT COULD OCCUR IF THE

BORESCOPE BECOMES BROKEN INSIDE THE

ENGINE.

<b> Insert the flexible borescope through the fuel spray nozzle

aperture and pass it carefully through the outer diffuser of the

combustion liner head section. Then, pass the borescope

between the HP outer guide vanes at their inner platform.

<c> Rotate the HP system (PAGEBLOCK 72-00-00/201).

D. Procedure

SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-155-R02

(1) If not already done, do the procedure to prepare the airplane for the inspection.

SUBTASK 72-00-00-496-156-R02

(2) Attach the tool with which you turn the HP system (TASK 72-00-00-982-026-R00).

SUBTASK 72-00-00-946-199-R02

(3) If not already done, do the procedure to prepare the borescope equipment for the inspection.

SUBTASK 72-00-00-296-246-R02

(4) Examine the compressor blades for damage with the limits that follow:

NOTE: If you find damage that extends from one zone into another, compare the chord width

of the damage in each zone with the limit for that zone. All stages of the HP

compressor rotor blades are made with local bends at the tip and the root. These

bends are different to the bends or curls caused by impact damage.

DHI 113-120 PRE SB RB211-72-C230

NOTE: If damage exists that either requires reinspection or engine rejection, use a printed

copy of Figure 608, Sheet 5 and/or sheet 6, as applicable, to map the location of each

damaged blade.

(1) Remove the engine from service for these conditions:

(a) It was not possible to examine a minimum of 90% of all stages of the HP compressor

rotor path liners.

(b) On one individual stage, the liner material has a total missing area greater than 6.20 sq.

inches (4000.0 sq. mm).

(c) One individual area of material loss is greater than 2.325 sq. inches (1500.0 sq. mm).

NOTE: It is not necessary to measure individual areas of lining loss less than 0.078 sq.

inch (50 sq. mm).

NOTE: Compressor rotor path liner “drop out” can leave “cliff edge” features that are

indicated by areas of shadow.

NOTE: This procedure is a scheduled maintenance task.

A. General

(1) This task provides the instructions on how to examine the High Pressure Nozzle Guide Vanes

(HPNGV).

(2) After you do 5 inspections at the intervals given in the limits that follow, you can multiply the

inspection interval by two with this condition:

(a) There is no more deterioration and no new defects are found.

(3) To help you make an estimate of the damage, the acceptance zones on the blades are

provided in this task.

(4) It is not necessary to examine the convex surface of the HPNGV airfoil. You can see some of

the NGV convex surfaces when you do an inspection of the HP turbine blades. If damage is

seen, use the acceptance limits that are given.

(Figure 614 and Figure 615)

NOTE: This procedure is a scheduled maintenance task.

A. General

(1) This task provides the instructions on the HP turbine and the limits that you can accept.

(2) Use an impact extractor if it is not easy to remove the plugs.

(3) To help you make an estimate of the damage, the acceptance zones on the blades are given in

the HP turbine blades figures.

(4) Examine the borescope access holes.

NOTE: Deterioration of the high pressure nozzle guide vane support ring heatshield may allow

axial and circumferential movement of the heatshield over the support ring. After

removal of the borescope plug this may partially block the HP turbine borescope hole

"G". The heatshield may be repositioned by hand to allow ease of entry of the

borescope. Looseness of the heatshield will not affect engine performance.

C. Procedure

SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-138-R04

(1) Prepare the borescope equipment:

(a) Use the switch at the rear of the light source box [1] to select the correct voltage.

(b) Connect the power supply to the light source box.

(c) Set the intensity switch to the lowest light setting.

(d) Do a functional check of the light source box.

1) Set the power supply switch to ON and make sure the red indication light comes on.

Return the switch to OFF.

(e) Attach the light cable [3] to the light source box.

NOTE: The flexible borescope has an integral light cable and does not require the

attachment of light cable [3].

(f) If you use the portable light source , attach the cable [11] to the portable light source box

[10].

NOTE: The portable light source is used with all borescopes except 1702319.

(g) Select and attach a borescope to a light cable, or attach a flexible borescope to a light

source box.

(h) Set the power supply switch to ON.

SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-140-R04

(2) Do these steps to use the borescope equipment:

NOTE: Deterioration of the HPNGV support ring heatshield may allow axial and

circumferential movement of the heatshield over the support ring, after removal of the

borescope plug. This may block access to the HP turbine borescope hole 'K'. The

heatshield may be repositioned by hand to allow ease of entry of borescope.

Looseness of the heatshield will not affect engine integrity.

(a) Put the borescope through the applicable opening for the inspection to be done.

(b) Rotate the IP or HP system (PAGEBLOCK 72-00-00/201), if you do either the

compressor or turbine system inspection.

(c) Refer to the applicable inspection task given in this procedure:

MAKE SURE THE FLEXIBLE BORESCOPE DOES

NOT CATCH THE INTERNAL PARTS OF THE

ENGINE.

IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS, DAMAGE TO THE

BORESCOPE COULD OCCUR. ALSO, DAMAGE TO

THE POWER PLANT COULD OCCUR IF THE

BORESCOPE BECOMES BROKEN INSIDE THE

ENGINE.

<b> Insert the flexible borescope through the fuel spray nozzle

aperture and pass it carefully through the outer diffuser of the

combustion liner head section. Then, pass the borescope

between the HP outer guide vanes at their inner platform.

<c> Rotate the HP system (PAGEBLOCK 72-00-00/201).

CAUTION

MAKE SURE THE FLEXIBLE BORESCOPE DOES

NOT CATCH THE INTERNAL DETAILS OF THE

ENGINE. IF YOU DO NOT, DAMAGE TO THE

BORESCOPE COULD OCCUR. ALSO, DAMAGE TO

THE POWERPLANT COULD OCCUR IF THE

BORESCOPE BECOMES CAUGHT OR BROKEN

INSIDE THE ENGINE.

conditions that follow:

(a) Missing annulus filler

(b) Airfoil cracks, nick, tears

(c) Airfoil dents, bends

(d) Airfoil tip damage

(e) Material missing from the airfoil leading and trailing edges.

(2) Examine the 1st Stage Compressor blades through the front of the engine.

(3) Examine the 2nd-through-6th stage compressor blades with the borescope equipment.

(4) Use an impact extractor if you cannot easily remove the plugs.

(5) It is not possible to examine these areas of the IP Compressor:

(a) The rear of the 1st stage rotor blades.

(b) The front of the 2nd stage rotor blades.

(c) The rear of the 3rd stage rotor blades.

(d) The front of the 4th stage rotor blades.

(e) The rear of the 5th stage rotor blades.

(f) The front of the 6th stage rotor blades.

(6) The access location, the view area, and the number of blades for each compressor stage are

as follows:

Access View Area Number of Blades

Engine Front Front - 1st-Stage 50

IP 2S Rear - 2nd-Stage 57

5. High Pressure (HP) Compressor Inspection

(Figure 602 and Figure 606)

A. General

(1) This task provides the instructions on how to examine the HP compressor blades for the

conditions that follow:

(a) Airfoil cracks, nicks or tears.

(b) Airfoil dents and bends.

(c) Material loss on the airfoil leading and trailing edges.

(2) It is not possible to examine these areas of the HP compressor:

(a) The rear of the 4th-stage rotor blades.

(b) The front of the 5th-stage rotor blades.

(c) The rear of the 6th-stage rotor blades.

(3) The access location, the view area, and the number of blades for each compressor stage are

as follows (Table 603):

Table 603/72-00-00-993-835-R00 HP Compressor Inspection Access

Access View Area Number of Blades

HP 1S *[1] Rear - Stage 1 57

Front - Stage 2 82

HP 2S *[1] Rear - Stage 2 82

Front - Stage 3 94

----- Rear - Stage 3 94

----- Front - Stage 4 97

HP 5S Rear - Stage 5 76

Front - Stage 6 74

*[1] Borescope access bosses HP 1S and HP 2S will not look in the center position of the adjacent thickened section of

the case. This is acceptable.

SUBTASK 72-00-00-480-021-R00

(2) Attach the tool to turn the HP system (TASK 72-00-00-982-026-R00).

E. High Pressure (HP) Compressor Inspection

SUBTASK 72-00-00-296-214-R04

(1) Do an inspection of the HP compressor blades:

NOTE: If you find damage that extends from one zone into another, compare the chord width

of the damage in each zone with the limit for that zone. All stages of the HP

compressor rotor blades are made with local bends at the tip and the root. These

bends are different to the bends or curls caused by impact damage.

NOTE: For all damage that is more than the limits, do not operate the engine until after you

repair the engine.

DHI 113-120 POST SB RB211-72-C230

NOTE: If damage exists that either requires reinspection or engine rejection, use a printed

copy of Figure 606, Sheet 5 and/or Sheet 6, as applicable, to map the location of each

damaged blade.

DHI 101-121, 301-999 POST SB RB211-72-C230; PHASE V COMBUSTION

(a) Damage is permitted to the limits that follow:

1) Accept missing material up to a depth of 0.015 inch (0.38mm) with no related

cracks.

2) The material missing is from a previous repair.

NOTE: Material missing from a previous repair will have a smooth contour

appearance. Check the module log book.

3) Accept nicks or tears that start on the leading or trailing edges, only if:

a) There are no cracks.

b) The maximum depth of the nick or tear is 0.015 inch (0.38 mm).

NOTE: If digital optical measurement equipment is used, the limit is increased

to 0.025 inch (0.64mm).

DHI 101-112, 121, 301-999 POST SB RB211-72-C230

4) Dents or bends are permitted if:

a) There are no related cracks, nicks or tears.

b) The blade does not touch a different blade.

TASK 72-00-00-206-085-R04

9. High Pressure (HP) Turbine Inspection

(Figure 611)

NOTE: This procedure is a scheduled maintenance task.

A. General

(1) The subsequent operations give the HP turbine inspection procedure and the standards (limits)

you can accept.

(2) This task provides the instructions on how to examine the High Pressure (HP) turbine for these

conditions:

(a) Burns or oxidation

(b) Cracks

(c) Dents

(d) Erosion

(e) Foreign object damage

(f) Interlock damage.

(3) To help you make an estimate of the damage, the acceptance zones on the blades are given in

the task.

(4) You can use an impact extractor if it is not easy to remove the access plugs for the borescope.

(5) You will do the inspection through borescope access holes.

NOTE: Deterioration of the HP NGV support ring heatshield may allow axial and

circumferential movement of the heatshield over the support ring, after removal of the

borescope plug. This may partially obscure the HP turbine borescope hole 'G'. The

heatshield may be repositioned by hand to allow ease of entry of borescope.

Looseness of the heatshield will not affect engine integrity.
