% RPM indicator is shown by the
indicator found on each EICAS
page. The instrument shows the percent of gas generator RPM based on a
gure of 100% at 37,500 RPM. The instrument is electrically-operated from
the compressor turbine tachometer-generator mounted on the lower right
portion of the engine accessory gearbox. The
Indicator uses a circular
scale with a moving pointer and a digital value indicating Gas Generator
Percent RPM in increments of 0.1%. The pointer moves through a range of
0.0% to 110.0%.
The instrument markings indicate a normal operating range (green arc) from
52.0% to 101.6%, and a red line at 101.6%. If the
speed is greater than
101.6% for longer than 2 seconds, the title, pointer and digits will ash red.
Otherwise, the title and pointer are white and the digits are green.
