Question B737 - APU BLEED - FCOM rev23

Hi Guys,

Im new around here and in air. I have an question on B737 FCOM rev 23, it suggest to give apu bleed air after 2 full min. But previous fcom revisions , it was 1 min. I wonder what is the reason that they increased the time to give bleed ( except the reason to extend the service life of the apu) ?

FCOM : Operate the APU for two full minutes before using it as a bleed air source. This two minutes stabilization is recommended to extend the service life of the APU.

Thank you so much guys for answers

Have safe flights
