FAA-PMA approval was recently granted to NAASCO Northeast Corp. for the ETR-25 Mercury Mod for P/N 160SG140Q starter generators manufactured by Skurka, fitted to Eurocopter EC120 model helicopters.
Jim Leslie, VP Component Overhaul remarked, “This modification, as with all of our ETR starter generator improvement programs, boasts a 1,000 hour brush life guarantee.”
Trend-monitoring program tracking data sent in by several operators that have taken advantage of these improvements have reported a projected brush life of between 1,200 to 1,700 hours with minimal commutator wear.
NAASCO holds FAA and E.A.S.A. certification.
