PT6A ITT PROBLEM


  Note 1: The Ng peaks most likely is misrecording on the Ng´s on these flights.


Note 2: An ITT step change of 15-20°C, since the ITT is the only effected parameter this looks like an ITT indication problem.

Recommendation:
We recommend that the ITT system is troubleshooted at next convenient time, in the following order:

1. Check the T1 trimstick resistance, ref. Values from the dataplate or last overhaul records.
2. Check and calibrate as necessary the ITT system resistance from the cockpit for 8Ω ± 0.05 and perform insulation check.
3. Check and calibrate if necessary the cockpit indicator for correct indication.


If none of the above checks reveals any errors continue with the following:

1. Split the engine at the C-flange and check the T5 probes for heat response, and burned probes.
2. Check the bus bar insulation.


For the above checks use the Beechcraft King Air 200 Maintenance Manual and P&WC PT6A-42 Maintenance Manual for reference.
