For detailed descriptions and instructions for each section of the MSR, you should refer to OPNAVINST 4790.2. Q14. When a Module Service Record (MSR) component is installed as part of a propulsion system, the MSR becomes part of what record? Q15. Pencil entries are required in what section of the MSR? Q16. When an MSR card contains no space for additional entries, a new card is initiated. What should be the disposition of each MSR card? ENGINE COMPOSITION TRACKING (ECOMTRAK) LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Describe the Engine Composition Tracking (ECOMTRAK) system. This system tracks the operating time cycle or counts of selected engine components. A similar system is used to track selected aircraft components, which is called “Aircraft Composition Tracking” (ACOMTRAK). These two systems can be easily confused by the AZ; therefore, you must remember that ECOMTRAK deals primarily with life-limited engine components. The ECOMTRAK system supplies reports that specify the time or cycle counts that remain on each tracked component before the component must be inspected or removed and replaced. By using usage rates derived from experiments and tests, workloads for maintenance and rework facilities can be forecast. In addition, long-range requirements for new and reworked components can be developed. The cognizant field activity (CFA) or, in some cases, the assistant program manager for logistics (APML) for each engine in the system maintains the ECOMTRAK data base. Each CFA can presently provide manage- ment information on TF30, J60, J85, T700, TF34, J52, TF41, F402, F404, T64, T76, T58, T56, T400 and F110 engines. Designated fleet units and others may also obtain such data directly. For further information on this direct data access capability, contact NAMO. The  AZ  who  works  on  an  Enhanced Comprehensive Asset Management System (ECAMS) performs the following tasks: Verifies and corrects ECAMS, ECOMTRAK system, and Parts Life Tracking System (PLTS) reports daily Validates configuration reports between ECAMS database, AESR, MSR, and ECOMTRAK, or PLTS prior to deployment, after deployment, and quarterly Screens all maintenance action forms (MAFs) and naval flight records (NAVFLIRs) daily to ensure engine transactions and component removal and installation have been updated in the ECAMS database Ensures TDs that require part number changes are entered into ECAMS Refer to Commander, Naval Air Systems Command (COMNAVAIRSYSCOM), aircraft controlling custodian/type commander (ACC/TYCOM), and wing directives for additional responsibilities. Q17. What system tracks operating time, cycles, or counts of selected engine components? SUMMARY The Aeronautical Equipment Service Record (AESR) is the log that keeps track of aeronautical equipment that is an integral part of the aircraft. The AESR contains many of the same forms and records that are used in the aircraft logbook. The activity that originally accepts the equipment is the activity that initiates the AESR. You should enter full identification data and the equipment serial number on each page of every form in the AESR. When there is no designated place in the AESR for data, you should place the data in a manila folder that is attached to the back inside cover of the AESR for this purpose. You should record the monthly compilation. of significant operating data in the Equipment Operating Record. You should also make an entry in Equipment Operating Record upon transfer of the equipment. Overtemp, hot start, acceptance, and transfer inspections are examples of conditional inspections that you should log on the Conditional Inspection page of an AESR. You should maintain 2 years of data on the Conditional Inspection page. You shouldn’t record acceptance and transfer inspections of uninstalled equipment in the AESR for equipment. When you send equipment to be repaired that is separated from a major component, such as an engine, a propeller, or an auxiliary power unit to an AIMD, the AESR should accompany the component. You should record technical directives that affect an EHR, ASR, 8-22
