Service Bulletin No: 28-003 Ref No: 76

Modification No: EC-19-0281, EC-19-0745 ATA Chapter: 28

FUEL - DISTRIBUTION
FUEL DRAIN MAST AND REFUEL/DEFUEL DRAIN PIPE INTEGRATION

1. Planning information

A. Effectivity

PC-24 aircraft MSN 101 thru MSN 184.

This modification will be incorporated on MSN 185 and subsequent during production.

B. Concurrent requirements

None.

C. Reason

A design change to the fuel drain system has been developed which will improve the fuel
drainage from the aircraft. The installation of a drain mast, and a new 5-way drain fitting, will be
introduced at the location of the dedicated drain hole which will allow for a new fuel drain pipe
routing improvement.

The installation of the drain mast ensures that fuel will drain, and separate, from the aircraft and
have no contact with the aircraft fuselage.

D. Description

This Service Bulletin gives the data and instructions necessary to:

• Do the modification for the new fuel drain pipe routing improvement
• Do the modification to install the new drain mast.

Revision No. 1 of this Service Bulletin is issued to include the:

• Additional anti-chafe tape in the Materials Information section

• Instructions to install the anti-chafe tape on the new RH underwing stringer.

Operators that have accomplished this Service Bulletin at the initial issue must make sure that
the anti-chafe tape is installed on the new RH underwing stringer.

E. Compliance

Mandatory.

At the next 600 FH / 12 Months scheduled maintenance check, but not later than 15 Months from
the issue date of this Service Bulletin.

PERSONNEL.

NOTE: Use the measurements shown in Figure 2 (Sheet 2, View B) to determine the
position of the four (4,80 mm) holes to be made in the wing fairing U-Channel.

(a) Use a scriber (or center punch) to make marks for the position of each of the four
holes to be drilled.

(b) Use a 4,80 mm diameter drill bit and drill the four holes (at the marks that you made)
in the wing fairing U-Channel (1).

(c) Remove the unwanted material and remove all sharp edges.
