A nonpositive displacement mechanical device designed to provide cool air in aircraft air conditioning systems. Cool air or reduction in temperature is obtained when the heat or energy of compressed air is removed by converting it to work or mechanical energy to drive an impeller wheel. Compressed air is directed through nozzle vanes and impinged upon the blades of a turbine wheel creating rotary motion which drives an impeller wheel. Consists of an impeller wheel, a turbine wheel matched with a nozzle ring on a bearing mounted shaft within a scroll type housing(s).
NSN 1660-00-010-4983. Aircraft cooling turbine nsn 1660000104983. General characteristics item description used to compress and cool air in an aircraft air conditioning system
Indicates there is no data in the hmirs and the nsn is in a fsc not generally suspected of containing hazardous materials.
Item does not contain precious metal.
The item does not have a nuclear hardened feature or any other critical feature such as tolerance, fit restriction or application.
HMIC: Hazardous Material Indicator Code. Identifies a hazardous item.
PMIC: Precious Metal Indicator Code. Identifies items that have precious metals as part of their content. precious metals are those metals generally considered to be uncommon, highly valuable, and relatively superior in certain properties such as resistance to corrosion and electrical conductivity.
ESD: Electrostatic Discharge. Indicates if an item is susceptible to electrostatic discharge or electromagnetic interference damage. electrostatic discharge damage occurs when an accumulation of static electricity generated by the relative motion or separation of materials is released to another item by direct contact. electromagnetic interference damage occurs when an item comes into proximity with an electrostatic or magnetic field.
ENAC: Enviromental Attribute Code. Identifies items with environmentally preferred characteristics.
CRITL: Criticality Indicator Code. Indicates an item is technically critical by tolerance, fit, application, nuclear hardness properties, or other characteristics.
