    3. REASON

    The purpose of this AOT is to inform A318/A319/A320/A321 operators of potentially defective Safran fuel
    pumps P/N P99C38-605 that must be removed from service and returned to Safran.

    3.1 FACTS

    Safran informed Airbus of a number of fuel pumps Part Number P99C38-605 identified which could be
    subject to a quality issue and which may be installed on aircraft. Following strip down by Safran of one of
    the potentially affected P99C38-605 pumps, the locking key of the impeller drive shaft was found loose in
    the cavity under the impeller.

    Safran fuel pumps P/N P99C38-605 are not installed in Airbus production since June 2015.

    Figure 1. Fuel Pump Cross Section

    3.2 CONSEQUENCES

    Incorrect installation of the locking key in an affected pump in combination with the pump operation not
    fully immersed in fuel could compromise the fuel pump integrity and could result in an in-tank ignition.

    3.3 AIM

    The aim of this AOT is to require operators as follows:


    1. Identify if any of the affected pumps are installed on their aircraft and remove the affected pumps
    in accordance with the accomplishment timescale specified in the section 4.1.1 of this AOT.
    2. Identify if any of the affected pumps is in operators’ stock.
    3. Return any of the affected pumps to Safran to the address provided in the section 4 of this AOT.

    NOTE: This AOT is classified mandatory or expected to be classified mandatory by an Airworthiness


    Directive (AD). The accomplishment instructions marked as Required for Compliance (RC) must be
    done to comply with the AD. “RC” is indicating these paragraphs accordingly.

    ALERT OPERATORS TRANSMISSION - AOT

    NOTE: The accomplishment instructions of this AOT include procedures given in other documents or
    in other sections of the AOT. When the words ’refer to’ are used and the operator has a procedure
    accepted by the local authority he belongs to, the accepted alternative procedure can be used. When
    the words ’in accordance with’ are used then the given procedure must be followed.

    NOTE: The access and close-up instructions, not comprising return to service tests, in this AOT do not
    constitute or affect the technical intent of the AOT. Operators can therefore, as deemed necessary, omit
    or add access and/or close-up steps to add flexibility to their maintenance operations as long as the
    technical intent of the AOT is met within the set parameters.

    4. RC - SHORT TERM ACTION

     Perform a check of the fuel pumps installed on aircraft. If any of the serial numbers of the fuel
    pumps Safran part number P99C38-605 referenced in Table 1 is installed on an aircraft, this
    pump must be removed in accordance to the accomplishment timescale specified in section 4.1.1
    of this AOT and must be sent back to Safran at the address given below.
     Check if any of the serial numbers of the fuel pumps Safran part number P99C38-605 referenced
    in Table 1 is currently in stock. If any of fuel pumps serial numbers referenced in the list is
    identified in stock, this component must not be installed on aircraft and must be sent back to
    Safran at the address given below.

     Send to Safran any affected fuel pumps S/N referenced in Table 1 at the following address:

    SAFRAN AEROSYSTEMS Fuel & Control Systems


    Boulevard Sagnat
    BP 3
    42230 ROCHE LA MOLIERE
    FRANCE

    Contact : [email protected]
    Phone: +33 4 77 90 71 05

    NOTE: Any of the affected pumps can only be re-installed on an aircraft following embodiment of
    a Safran VSB once available.

    NOTE: A review of aeroplane delivery and maintenance records is acceptable to make this
    determination, provided those records can be relied upon for that purpose and the P/N and S/N
    of the Safran fuel pump can be positively identified from that review.

    NOTE: Refer to Table 1 in the next page for the list of potentially affected S/N.
