2、ecommended Practice describes two performance acceptance test methods to determine the performance acceptability of new production and overhauled air turbine starters. Before a new or overhauled starter is delivered to a customer, the starter is subjected to a performance acceptance test in accordan

3、ce with an acceptance test procedure. The performance acceptance test is intended to ensure that the customer receives a starter that meets or exceeds minimum starter performance requirements. 2. DISCUSSION: The first acceptance test method, called the acceleration time method, consists of measuring

The measured torque is compared

In addition to measuring acceleration time or rating point torque, both acceptance test methods require that the airflow be measured and compared with the maximum al

The performance of the unit is verified indirectly by measuring acceleration time. ?he rating point test method records the test unit torque and hence verifies the test unit output perf
