GENERAL INFORMATION
The Inlet Barrier Filter (IBF) STC kit
(109000-101) consists of two
forward-facing removable barrier
filter assemblies, integral seals,
mounting adapter frame, differential
pressure switch, filter maintenance
aid, inlet plenum floor with bypass
doorfactuator assembly, two floor
closeout angles, a cockpit “IBF
FILTER” differential pressure limit
indicator, a two position cockpit "IBF
BYPASS” switch for bypass open or
closed, a 3 amp breaker, and an
engine wash nozzle/supply tube
assembly. The kit also includes all
unique installation hardware and
wiring
An alternate kit (109000-103)
includes the basic IBF installation as
described above and adds an
optional quick “access door’ to allow
filter servicing without removing the
cowl. The quick “access door’
modification includes the door, seal,
and structural components.
Installation of the IBF STC requires
that the engine bleed air or scavenge
air used by the engine air Particle
Separator (if installed), be capped.
FAA Approved

Operation of the aircraft with the IBF
system installed requires use of the

PERFORMANCE
PERFORMANCE DATA
Basic helicopter performance is only
slightly reduced when the Inlet
Barrier Filter (IBF) is clean.
Helicopter performance is reduced
as the IBF becomes contaminated
with dirt, dust and debris.
Based on the condition of the filter,
the IBF system uses the
performance charts as normally
required in the Flight Manual BHT-
206B-FM-1 or BHT-20683-FM-1 (as
applicable) for the basic inlet or as
normally required in Rotorcraft Flight
Manual (RFM) Supplement BHT-
206B-FMS-15 or Supplement BHT-
206B3-FMS-12 (as applicable) for
operation of the aircraft with the Bell
engine air particle separator kit
installed. A Power Check must be
performed to determine which charts
are to be used.
NOTE
Power Check must be used to
determine if engine can produce
installed power. Power Check is
acceptable when chart percent
torque reading is equaled or
exceeded. Ensure that the IBF
FILTER caution ight is not
illuminated and IBF Bypass
atest 1 4 2005
switch is in the CLOSED position
during performance of the Power
Check.
To determine if the basic inlet
performance charts can be used,
perform the basic inlet Power Check
using the procedure / chart in
Performance Section of the
appropriate Flight Manual. if the
basic inlet. Power Check is
acceptable, the engine meets or
exceeds the minimum Allison
specification requirements for the
applicable 250-C20 series engine
and the performance data for basic
inlet configuration included in this
section of the Flight Manual can be
achieved
NOTE
If the basic inlet Power Check is
not acceptable, the operator has
the option of. (1) servicing the
filter assemblies to restore clean
filter performance and rechecking
the basic inlet Power Check or
(2) continuing to operate if the
engine will pass the engine air
particle separator Power Check
If the basic inlet Power Check is not
acceptable, perform the engine air
particle separator Power Check
