Accessories Maintenance & Testing
Dedicated Accessory Expertise for M250 and RR300 Performance.
Technical Expertise. Industry Updates. Essential Turbines Perspectives.
Essential Turbines provides full accessory maintenance and testing for Rolls-Royce M250 and RR300 engines through our specialized facility in Malta.
As a longstanding Honeywell/VSE-authorized warranty and repair station, the Malta team has supported the 250 and RR300 family since the mid-1990s, giving operators a uniquely experienced, focused, and reliable accessory shop.
Why Accessory Maintenance Matters
Reliable accessories make reliable engines and Essential Turbines ensures both.
Operators rarely call us with “an accessory problem.” They call because the engine is surging, the power is inconsistent, or N1/N2 readings don’t look right. Most of the time, those symptoms trace back to the fuel control, governor, or another accessory.
Proper accessory maintenance helps operators:
Pinpoint the true root cause behind engine symptoms
Verify serviceability before installation or sale
Avoid repeated removals and troubleshooting cycles
Reduce in-service issues and unplanned downtime
Make informed choices when parts are scarce or expensive
What We Service
All accessories are tested on a dedicated accessory test stand, ensuring precise, repeatable results independent of an engine.
Full overhaul and testing for M250 and RR300 accessories, including:
- Fuel control units (excluding HMUs)
- Power turbine governors
- Selected fuel pumps
- All fuel nozzles
- Other fuel and control accessories within OEM-authorized scope
