CFM International CFM56-7B26
CFM International CFM56-7B26 is a dual-rotor, axial-flow, high-bypass turbofan variant in the CFM56-7B series. EASA E.004 Issue 07 describes a single-stage fan, three-stage low-pressure compressor, nine-stage high-pressure compressor, annular combustion chamber, single-stage high-pressure turbine, four-stage low-pressure turbine, and dual-channel FADEC. The base CFM56-7B26 is rated at 116.99 kN takeoff thrust and 115.21 kN maximum continuous thrust in the EASA data sheet; Boeing planning data separately identifies a 26,000-lb (115.7 kN) sea-level-static planning figure. Boeing identifies the exact model on 737 Next Generation variants, including the 737-900ER; the existing installation graph preserves the distinct /2, /3, and Enhanced derivative boundaries.
