Oil
▲ CAUTION ▲
Do n
ot mix different viscosities or specifications of oil as their different
chemical structure can make them incompatible.
▲
Maximum oil temperature : 104 °C
Oil pressure :
- Minimum : 60 psi
- Maximum : 135 psi, a transient oil pressure up to 170 psi is acceptable for
maximum 20 seconds
● NOTE ●
Display between 150 and 170 psi is available with software system 079.14 or
later
●
Normal oil pressure is 100 to 135 psi. Oil pressures under 100 psi are undesirable.
Under emergency conditions, to complete a flight, a lower oil pressure of 60 psi is
permitted at reduced power level not exceeding 80% torque. Oil pressures below 60
psi are unsafe and require that either the engine be shut down or a landing be made as
soon as possible using the minimum power required to sustain flight.
Oil capacity :
- System total capacity : 12.7 Quarts (12 litres), oil cooler included
- Usable capacity : 6 Quarts (5.7 litres)
