### 1. PLANNING INFORMATION

1.A. EFFECTIVITY

1.A.1. Helicopters/installed equipment

Helicopters equipped with external life rafts in the footsteps, with junction units with Part Number (MP/N) 200197 or 200188 (P/N 704A341302.48 or 704A341302.30).

1.A.2. Non-installed equipment

On junction units with Part Numbers (MP/N) 200197 and 200188 (P/N 704A341302.48 and 704A341302.30).



### 1.B. ASSOCIATED REQUIREMENTS

Not applicable.



### 1.C. REASON

During the maintenance operation scheduled at 600 fl ying hours or 24 months on the external life rafts located in the footstep, the life raft deployment test ca rried out by the operator by pulling the LH internal deployment handle did not function correctly.

Investigations revealed the presence of corrosion in side the LH junction unit MP/N 200197. The deployment

handle was blocked due to this corrosion.

Consequently, pending a definitive solution and in order to prevent any risk of blockage in the external life raft deployment control system, Airbus Helicopters makes compliance with the instructions of this ALERT SERVICE BULLETIN mandatory, except for paragraph 3.D.

Revision 1 does not affect compliance with Revision 0 of this ALERT SERVICE BULLETIN.

### 1.D. DESCRIPTION

Compliance with this ALERT SERVICE BULLETIN Revision 0 consisted in:

- Checking that the drainage hole blank, located on th e RH and LH junction units of the external life raft

installation, is correctly positioned. - Measuring the operational clearance between the junction unit pulleys and cover. - Checking that there is no corrosion inside the junction units. - If necessary, removing the corrosion from the cover surface and/or pulleys of the junction unit(s).

This ALERT SERVICE BULLETIN Revision 1 consists in:

- Adding illustrations of junction unit MP/N 200188 and referring to these illustrations in the procedure, in

order to specify the dimensions and geometry of the cover. - Specifying, in paragraph 3.B., the oper ations to be carried out if corrosion is found on a straight surface in

the housing located on the junction unit cover MP/N 200197. - Specifying the acceptable tensile loads for junction units MP/N 200188 during compliance with MET Work

Card 25.69.01.501, by adding paragraph 4.B. and m odifying the flow chart in paragraph 1.E.2. - Modifying part of the wording in paragraph 1.E.2. - Limiting compliance with this ALERT SERVICE BULLETI N required in the flow chart to paragraphs 3.A. and

3.B.
