1. PLANNING INFORMATION

CAUTION

THIS SERVICE BULLETIN IS WRITTEN BASED ON

THE ORIGINAL HELICOPTER CONFIGURATION
(AS DEFINED IN THE INDIVIDUAL INSPECTION
LOG BOOK (RIC)). IT ALSO TAKES INTO
ACCOUNT ALL AIRBUS HELICOPTERS
APPROVED CONFIGURATION CHANGES MADE
AFTER DELIVERY, IF AIRBUS HELICOPTERS WAS
INFORMED OF THEM. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF THE OPERATOR TO CHECK THE
COMPATIBILITY OF ANY MODIFICATIONS WITH
THE CURRENT HELICOPTER CONFIGURATION. IF
MODIFICATIONS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE, IT IS
THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OPERATOR TO
DEFINE THE NECESSARY ADAPTATION WORK
AND HAVE THEM APPROVED BY THE AIR
TRANSPORT AUTHORITIES IN THE COUNTRY
CONCERNED, AND TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR
AIRWORTHINESS IS FOLLOWED UP.

1.A. EFFECTIVITY

1.A.1. Helicopters/installed equipment or parts

Helicopters POST MOD TU210 or POST MOD 074830 and PRE MOD 0720015.

NOTE

Refer to the Individual Inspection Log Book (RIC AMS)

and/or Aircraft Log Book to identify the current modification
status of the helicopter.

Compliance with this Service Bulletin is not compatible with POST MOD 074831 helicopters.

CAUTION

1.B. ASSOCIATED REQUIREMENTS

CAUTION

BEFORE COMPLYING WITH THIS SERVICE

BULLETIN, MAKE SURE THAT NO ALERT
SERVICE BULLETIN RELATED TO THIS
INSTALLATION WAS ISSUED BETWEEN THE
DATE OF APPROVAL OF THIS SERVICE BULLETIN
AND THE DATE OF COMPLIANCE WITH THIS
SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE HELICOPTER.

CAUTION

BEFORE ANY WORK, MAKE SURE THAT YOUR

FLIGHT MANUAL (PMV) WAS UPDATED AS
APPROVED BY THE COMPETENT AUTHORITIES.
REFER TO PARAGRAPH 3.D.

1.C. REASON

The purpose of this Service Bulletin is to install an engine cut-off device for occurrences of overspeed on
ARRIEL 2D engines.
During an engine-MGB link rupture (accident situation), the engine suddenly accelerates until reaching the
"Blade Shedding" (separation of free turbine blades due to centrifugal effect).
The "Blade Shedding" is designed to prevent the bursting of the turbine disc, which would cause the
separation of a heavy mass fragment at very high energy. However, the "Blade Shedding" can also cause
mechanical and thermal damages to the engine and the airframe.

The solution consists in using the capacity of the FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control) to supply the
"OFF" solenoid valve bobbin of the ARRIEL 2D engine.

Compared to the initial modification 074831, the introduction of this new device has been simplified for
operators through the integration of a shunt harness.

1.D. DESCRIPTION

This Service Bulletin consists in:

- installing a new harness at the connectors of boxes ‘‘55K’’ (FADEC) and ‘‘26K’’ (SELECT STARTING),
- installing a protective plate,
- installing a connector support.
