2. Description
The PT6A and PT6E series turboprop engine comprises a 2 stage reduction gearbox, 2 stage power
turbine, single stage gas generator turbine and 5 stage gas generator compressor (4 axial, 1
centrifugal). The fuel control is purely hydro-mechanical (except PT6E-67XP and PT6E-66XT which have
an electronic control system). The accessory gearbox design is common for all PT6A series with the
exception of the PT6A-67P and PT6E-67XP which has a mounting provision for a second generator unit.

5. Ratings
6. Control System
The PT6A series engine is controlled by a purely hydromechanical fuel control system. The PT6E-67XP
and PT6E-66XT are controlled by a dual channel Engine and Propeller Electronic Control System (EPECS).
Refer to the applicable Illustrated Parts catalogue for part numbers.
See applicable Engine Maintenance Manual for specific approved oil, fuel and additives.
For accessory drives specifications, including direction of rotation, drive speed ratio to engine speed,
torque continuous pad rating and maximum overhung moment, refer to model specific Installation
