FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual Supplement

Hawker Beechcraft King Air 300/300LW 190-00716-02 Rev.1
Page 16 of 137 FAA APPROVED
POWER PLANT LIMITATIONS AND INDICATOR MARKINGS
No changes were made to the airplane’s engine operating limits. The engine gauges are marked as
shown in the following table. Refer to the latest Airplane Flight Manual or appropriate Airplane Flight
Manual Supplement for engine and propeller limitations.
NOTE
The gauge indicator pointer and digital display will flash inverse red/white video for 5
seconds, then remain steady red, if the indicated engine parameter exceeds its
established limit. The gauge indicator digital display will change to yellow for “caution”
conditions.

Footnotes:
(a) Torque limit applies within range of 1000 - 1700 propeller rpm (N
2
).
(b) Torque indications between 100% and 156% are time limited to 20 seconds.
(c) Maximum ITT during idle is 750ºC. High ITT at ground idle may be corrected by reducing accessory
load and/or increasing N
1
rpm.
(d) ITT indication between 820ºC and 850ºC is time limited to 20 seconds.
(e) ITT starting limit at 1000ºC (red triangle) is time limited to 5 seconds.
(f) Normal oil pressure is 90 to 135 psig at gas generator speeds above 72%. With engine torque
below 62%, minimum oil pressure is 60 psig at normal oil temperature (60º to 70ºC). Oil pressures
under 90 psi are undesirable. Under emergency conditions, to complete a flight, a lower oil pressure
limit of 60 psig is permissible at a reduced power level not exceeding 62% torque. Oil pressures
below 60 psig are unsafe and require that either the engine be shut down or a landing be made at the
nearest suitable airport, using the minimum power required to sustain flight. Fluctuations of plus or
minus 10 psi are acceptable.
During extremely cold starts, oil pressure may reach 200 psi (red triangle). In flight, oil pressures
above 135 psi but not exceeding 200 psi are permitted only for the duration of the flight.
(g) Oil temperature limits are -40ºC and +110 ºC. However, temperatures between 99ºC and 110 ºC
are limited to a maximum of 10 minutes.
