OBJECTIVES SYMBOLS
1. Identify the purpose of the power plant.
Symbols used in this guide are explained below.
2. Recognize power plant components.
4. Identify Line Replaceable Units (LRUs). The component is a Line Replaceable Unit (LRU).
Safety Conditions
The geared technology of the PW1100G-JM allows the fan and low
rotor to operate at independent, optimal speeds for peak efficiency.
These improvements in performance reduce fuel consumption,
environmental impact, and noise. At the same time, operating costs
are drastically reduced.

ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS
NACELLE SYSTEM
Nacelle System components are mounted either to the engine or to
the pylon. They provide the engine with these capabilities:
• collection and discharge locations for oil, fuel, and hydraulic fluid
from the engine and its components.

Fan Cowl
Description (Cont.)
A fan cowl assist side latch secures the right-hand side fan cowl half
to the inlet cowl. The side latch facilitates fan cowl closing by one
person only.
The Oil Tank Access Door (OTAD) provides quick access to the oil
tank, allowing oil service without opening the cowling. The OTAD is
hinged at the front edge and secured with two latches that provide
redundancy at the aft edge of the panel.
Each of three fan cowl door latches has a fan cowl door proximity
sensor to alert the ground crew to the fan cowls’ position. Each
sensor is able to detect whether the relative latch is locked, to avoid
any fan cowl door loss in flight.
Purpose: They can be opened using the Door Opening System (DOS) by
means of a hydraulic hand pump. Each door is equipped with a

The thrust reverser cowl doors also provide access to the oil tank for
servicing and, when open, facilitate core component maintenance.
Location:
The halves hinge at the pylon, latching together along the bottom

Description:
Thrust reverser cowl doors are comprised of two halves that are
mechanically independent. The cowl doors are sometimes referred to
as the “C-duct” due to their shape.
Strakes

NACELLE HARNESS
• Main beam
• Fail-safe bolt
The side and vertical loads at the forward mount couple with the aft
mount loads to support overall engine pitch and yaw. Side links
provide the primary load paths from the fan case into the front
beam. The forward mount is attached to the pylon with four bolts
and two shear pins, which transmit vertical and shear loads into the
pylon. The mount bolts use captive barrel nuts to ease removal.
The aft mount is attached to the Turbine Exhaust Case (TEC) and
reacts to engine fore-aft, side, vertical, and roll loads. Main
components of the aft mount assembly are below.
• Main beam
The two outer links are assembled to the beam with four shear
bolts. Each outer link is attached to the TEC with one shear bolt.
The center link is attached directly to the TEC with another shear
bolt. The failure of any one link on the aft mount, including the thrust
links, will cause the system to transfer loads to a secondary load
path.

Storage
Bootstrap Procedure
The bootstrap procedure removes the engine from its mount on the
pylon and subsequently installs it to the pylon.
The bootstrap kit containing the required tooling for the process is
housed in a large storage case designated as Engine Bootstrap
Assembly 98 D71203011000.
Removing the wheeled containers will give access to the eight C 5-ton chain hoists 2
pieces that make up the chain hoist and its assembly tools. See
the table at right. D 2 -ton chain hoists 2
Bootstrap System
First the engine is removed from the pylon using the bootstrap
system and lowered to a cradle supported by a transportation stand.
Later the engine is raised by the chain hoist for installation to the
pylon mount.
Cradle
The cradle portion of the transport stand supports the engine when
the engine is removed from the aircraft pylon and lowered.
