| Requirement: | 1. Perform a detailed visual borescope inspection of the Trim Tank Vent Float Valve (TTVFV) of the left hand and right hand trim tanks in accordance with Airbus Service Bulletin (SB) A330-28-3086 Rev 1 and SB A330-28-3087 Rev 1 or later DGAC approved revisions.2. Rectify any defects found during the inspections detailed in Requirement 1 of this Directive, in accordance with Airbus SB A330-28-3086 Rev 1 and SBA330-28-3087 Rev 1 or later DGAC approved revisions.3. TTVFV replacement:For the RH trim tank vent float valve Argo-Tech PN 61600:Replace the TTVFV with a new unit of the same PN in accordance with SB A330-28-3086 Rev 1; or with new PN valve in accordance with SBA330-28-3088 Rev 1 or later DGAC approved revisions.For the LH trim tank vent float valve Intertechnique PN L87-13-001:Replace the TTVFV with a new unit of the same PN in accordance with SB A330-28-3087 Rev 1, or with new PN valve in accordance SBA330-28-3089 Rev 2 or SB A330-28-3094 or later DGAC approved revisions.4. Where the TTVFV is replaced with an Argo-Tech PN 61600 or Intertechnique PN L87-13-001 TTVFV, perform a detailed visual borescope inspection of the TTVFV in accordance with Airbus Service Bulletin (SB) A330-28-3086 Rev 1 and SB A330-28-3087 Rev 1 or later DGAC approved revisions. |
| 5. Terminating Action:For the RH trim tank outboard float valve Argo-Tech PN 61600, replace the TTVFV in accordance with SB A330-28-3088 Rev 1 (replace Argo-Tech PN 61600 with a new PN) or later DGAC approved revisions.For the LH trim tank outboard float valve Intertechnique PN L87-13-001, replace the TTVFV in accordance with SB A330-28-3089 Rev 2 (replace Intertechnique PN L87-13-001 with a new PN) or SB A330-28-3094 or later DGAC approved revisions.Argo-Tech and Intertechnique vent float valves PN 61600 and PN L87-13-001 removed from aircraft must be discarded.Incorporation of SB A330-28-3088 Rev 1 and either SB A330-28-3089 Rev 2 or SB A330-28-3094 (or later DGAC approved revisions) cancels the requirements of this Directive.Argo Tech vent float valve new PN 62015-1 installed on the A340 is not interchangeable with new PN 62015-1 installed on the A330 and vice versa.Intertechnique TTVFV new PN L87-13-002 or PN L87-13-003 installed on the A340 is not interchangeable with new PN L87-13-002 or PN L87-13-003 installed on the A330 and vice versa.Note: DGAC AD F-2005-004 EASA approval No. 2005-3642 dated 20 April 2005 refers. |
