Arrius 2K1 engine specifications
The Arrius is a family of
turboshaft engines introduced in 1981 to power a wide range of rotary-wing
single and twin-engine aircraft. Over 2,000 engines have been produced by
Turbomeca (Safran Group) for 430 customers in 60 countries. These engines
have logged more than 2.8 million flight hours so far. This engine family
features extreme simplicity design and mainly consists of four basic
variants: Arrius 1A/1M, Arrius 2F, Arrius 2B1/2B2 and Arrius 2K1/2K2.
Power at take-off ranges from 479-shp to 716-shp.
The Arrius 2K1 turboshaft engine was certified in late 2001 and powers the
AgustaWestland A109E Power twin-engine helicopter. The Arrius 2K2 powers
the A109 LUH helicopter. Both engines are controlled by an Electronic
Engine Control Unit (EECU) which provides automatic starting, engine
protection, training mode and engine life management functions. The Time
Between Overhaul (TBO) is 3,000 hours and offer 40 percent power increase
compared to early Arrius engines.
