2204400-X — Cooling Turbine Repair & Overhaul

Component Overview

The cooling turbine is the expansion stage of an air cycle machine within the aircraft environmental control system. Charged with high-pressure, partially cooled bleed air, it extracts energy as the air expands across the turbine wheel, producing a steep temperature drop that supplies conditioned air to the cabin and avionics. The wheel typically shares a common shaft with the compressor and, in three-wheel designs, a cooling fan, all supported on high-speed bearings. Service-driven distress includes bearing wear and increased shaft play, blade erosion and foreign-object damage, seal degradation that raises leakage and reduces cooling output, shaft imbalance, and thermal fatigue cracking. These conditions reduce efficiency and pack cooling capacity, prompting inspection, balancing, bearing replacement, and overhaul of the rotating group.

Aircraft Application

Part number 2204400-X (Cooling Turbine) is installed on the ATR ATR42. QTC supports operators and MROs servicing this platform with certified repair and overhaul.
