Honeywell HTF7000
Aircraft engine
The Honeywell HTF7000 is a turbofan engine produced by Honeywell Aerospace . Rated in the 6,540–7,624 lbf (29.09–33.91 kN) range, the HTF7000 is used on the Bombardier Challenger 300 /350, Gulfstream G280 , Embraer Legacy 500 /450 and the Cessna Citation Longitude .
Its architecture could be extended for a range of 8,000 to 10,000 lbf (36 to 44 kN) thrust.[ 3]
Operational history
The engine was originally designated the AS907 , which was changed in 2004 to HTF7000; the AS907 designation is still used for legal and regulatory use.[ 4]
By October 2016, 2.6 million hours had been logged by 1,400 in service engines and it has a 99.9% dispatch reliability rate.
Average fuel consumption is about 950 lb. per hour for a 7,765 lbf engine on a G280 , to be compared to 875 lb. per hour for a 4,420 lbf TFE731 on a G150 .[ 3]
More than 3.5 million flight hours have been logged till October 2017, and the 2,000th engine should be delivered in 2018.[ 2]
Honeywell maintenance program is $447 for two engines per hour.[ 5]
Borescope inspections extends time between overhaul and some engines have remained installed for up to 10,000 hr.[ 3]
It has line replaceable components installed with hand tools and is designed for condition-based maintenance .[ 2]
Variants
AS907 on a Bombardier Challenger 300
AS977 on an Avro RJX
HTF5000 / AS905
A 5,000 lbf (22 kN; 2,300 kgf) thrust variant,[ 4] unsuccessfully targeted toward the Dassault Falcon 7X .[ 6]
