WARNING: YOU MUST READ THE MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS (MSDS)(OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ACT (OSHA), FORM 20 OREQUIVALENT) BEFORE YOU USE THESE MATERIALS. SOME MATERIALSCAN BE DANGEROUS. YOU CAN GET THE DATA SHEETS FROM THEMANUFACTURERS OR THE SUPPLIERS OF THESE MATERIALS.

A. The minimum requirements for fuels are as follows:

NOTE: 1. The list of minimum requirements for fuels, as established by SpecificationCPW204, is shown in TABLE 1. Refer to TABLE 10, for the list of acceptablefuels.

NOTE: 2. The following list of fuel properties (Ref. TABLE 1) provides an envelope ofthe minimum requirements that are acceptable for use in Pratt & Whitney ofCanada Inc. commercially operated engines of the models covered by thisService Bulletin. Since these fuel properties address engine requirementsonly, this Service Bulletin is neither intended nor suitable for direct use as apurchase specification for procurement of fuel by operators of P&WCcommercial engines. Rather, it is intended to allow operators to includeminimum approved fuel requirements for P&WC engines in conjunction withother functional requirements when formulating their own procurementspecification or judging the acceptability of fuels manufactured to other nationalspecifications that exist throughout the world.

(1) The technical requirements are as follows:

(a) Test Methods

1 Tests shall be performed, insofar as practicable, in accordance with thelatest issue of the listed American Society for Testing and Materials(ASTM) test methods.

(b) High Temperature Stability

1 The Jet Fuel Thermal Oxidation Tester (JFTOT) ASTM D3241, is the onlyapproved and accepted test method for civil and military fuels.

2 Testing shall be conducted at 260°C (500°F), maximum heater tubetemperature. Maximum pressure change shall be 1.0 inch (25.4 mm) Hg andpre-heater deposit shall be less than Code 3 in accordance with ASTMD3241.

3 If JFTOT test at control temperature of 260°C (500°F) should fail to meetspecification requirements of Step 2, then test shall be conducted at atemperature of 245°C (473°F).

NOTE: The results from both the 260°C and 245°C (500°F and 473°F)Control- temperature tests must be reported by the refiner on allfuel analysis reports.

3. Accomplishment Instructions (Cont’d)

(a) Anti-corrosion and Fuel Lubricity Improver Additives (Ref. TABLE 2)

1 Anti-corrosion and lubricity additives are described as being primarilycorrosion inhibitors and secondarily as lubricity improvers, to meet asimilarly defined U.S. Military Specification. In certain cases it is necessaryto adjust concentration of such additives to obtain necessary lubricityimprovement. Only products listed in TABLE 2 have been tested andapproved, by P&WC as both corrosion inhibitors and lubricity improvers atthe concentration specified.

NOTE: Extensive operation on low lubricity fuel can result in acceleratedengine fuel pump wear. Until a generally accepted method ofmeasuring and defining fuel lubricity is available, rapid fuel pumpwear should be considered an indication of low lubricity fueland dictates a change in the fuel or the addition of a lubricityimprover. The corrosion inhibitor and fuel lubricity improver additivesare approved for the concentrations listed in TABLE 2.

(b) Thermal Stability Additives (Ref. TABLE 3)

1 TABLE 3 specifies a thermal stability additive approved for use in enginefuel, at the option of the refiner, to ensure adequate high temperaturestability at the time of use.

2 The thermal stability additive has been shown to improve jet fuel thermalstability, and in some applications to significantly reduce fuel nozzlecoking and to improve hot section cleanliness. This additive consists of anantioxydant, a metal deactivator, and a dispersant. It is approved foruse in engine which are identical to each other, except that Turboline FS100is diluted.

Specific basis is defined as intermittent or non-continuous use in asingle application to sterilize aircraft systems suspected or found to becontaminated by microbial organisms, such as fungi, bacteria andyeasts. For those operators, where the need for biocide use is indicated,Pratt & Whitney recommends, as a guide, a dosage interval of once a month.This interval can then be adjusted, either greater or lesser, as anoperator’s own experience dictates. Engines operated in private andexecutive aircraft, where overhaul periods and utilization are relatively low,may use the additive continuously.
