Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to Royal Inventum Company DR1 and DR6 Series Galley Water Heaters, that requires the installation of a pressure relief valve, and 3-phase safety devices on each Royal Inventum Company DR1 and DR6 series galley water heater. This amendment is prompted by a report of a Royal Inventum DR6 water heater explosion during an overheat test at a maintenance facility. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent explosions of Royal Inventum Company DR1 and DR6 series galley water heaters, which could cause personal injury or galley damage to the aircraft.
