Features

PW100 engines incorporate the latest advanced technologies in the drive to exceed
our customers expectations in performance, reliability, durability, fuel consumption
and environmental friendliness. PW100-powered regional turboprop aircraft
consume 25 to 40 percent less fuel and produce up to 50 percent lower CO2
emissions than similar sized jets, with correspondingly lower greenhouse gases. 31
PW100 models have been produced ranging in shaft horsepower power from 1,800
shp to 5,000 shp. The PW100 is a three-shaft, two-spool engine. Low pressure and
high pressure compressors are powered independently by cooled turbine stages. A
third shaft couples the power turbine to the propeller through a reduction gearbox,
optimized to establish the best combination of engine and propeller efficiencies. The
result is class-leading fuel consumption and low green house emissions. The latest
materials, design technologies and advanced engine control have enabled PW100
engines to regularly achieve more than 10,000 hours on-wing without a shop visit,
an impressive dispatch reliability record and provide the pilot and maintenance crew
with easy engine operation and maintenance.

Overview
The PW100 family is the engine of choice for modern 30 to 90 passenger turboprop
airliners around the world thanks to its outstanding reliability, durability and
operating economics. Offering the lowest fuel consumption and carbon emissions,
and incorporating the latest, proven advanced technologies, PW100 engines have
demonstrated they are the greenest in the airline industry for the shorter routes
served by the regional airlines.
Ranging in power from 1,800 shp to over 5,000 shp, PW100 engines are available in
31 models, offering unsurpassed flexibility and capability for a variety of
applications. PW100 engines power aircraft in service with 365 operators in 124
countries. More than 6,000 PW100 engines (PW118 to PW150) have been produced
since the family entered service in 1984, accumulating more than 100 million flying
hours. PW100 engines have demonstrated their versatility in powering aircraft

applications spanning the airlines, coastal surveillance, fire fighting and cargo
transport.
Operators of PW100 engines are supported by P&WCs industry-leading global
customer support. This includes over 30 P&WC-owned and designated service
facilities around the world, more than 100 field support representatives on all major
continents, a 24/7 Customer First Centre for rapid expert support, the most
advanced diagnostic capabilities for this market and the largest pool of P&WC rental
and exchange engines in the industry.

PW127F

The Green Powerhouse of Regional Airline Turboprops.

1,800 to over 5,000 shaft horsepower
The PW100 turboprop engine is the proven airline benchmark for low fuel
consumption on the shorter routes of 350 miles or less. PW100 powered airline
turboprops consume 25 to 40 per cent less fuel and produce up to 50 per cent fewer
CO2 emissions than similar-sized regional jets. As a result, many airlines are
renewing their fleets with PW100-powered aircraft. With a range of 1,800 to over
5,000 shaft horsepower, the PW100 has demonstrated its versatility in powering
aircraft applications spanning the airlines, coastal surveillance, fire fighting and
cargo transport.
