When performing an oil service on a turbine engine, there are several important considerations to keep in mind to ensure the safety and proper functioning of the turbine engine.
One of the first things to consider is the type of oil being used. Next, the oil should not be mixed with other oils or oil brands and lastly the oil must be clean and free from contaminants.
Proper technique is also crucial when performing an oil service on a turbine engine. It is important to use clean oil filling tools and containers and to avoid introducing any contaminants into the engine oil system.
Overall, performing an oil service on a turbine engine requires a great deal of care and attention to detail. Even small contaminants, can make server damage to the interior parts of an engine.
By keeping these important considerations in mind, using TheCanKey FunnelCap which is an oil funnel system, especially developed to prevent FOD to turbine engines, by removing the possibility of introducing contaminants to the engine, you can ensure the safety and proper functioning of the turbine engine.
Here is how it is done. Simply clean the top of the turbine oil can before opening it, install the FunnelCap on the can and fill the oil needed. Seal of the FunnelCap with the red closure and put the can with FunnelCap back in the storage compartment for next oil servicing.
The FunnelCap seals off the oil can and prevents contaminants to enter the left-over oil and you always know which oil is in the funnel by looking at the oil can.
Avoid spilling oil in the engine compartment or while in storage is another advantage using FunnelCaps.
