I'm familiar with most of the PT6A variants, but I've never heard of a "PT6A SER", unless it's being used in a generic sense to mean all PT6A series, in which case it's meaningless to talk about performance specifics.

52257 is the normal 114A engine model no , 52032 is the SER engine model.
Pratt does not give any info on this PT6A engine.
I just like to know what I am getting into flying this engine.
Thx, R

QED.
Call your local P&W service centre, quoting that serial number, and they will tell you what series the engine actually is.

"SER" may stand for Service Engineering Request - perhaps newly-certified, upgraded hardware (turbine?) installed on a limited basis (perhaps at no cost) in certain customers' engines for field evaluation.
If the SER proves successful - meeting design objectives - the new hardware will probably be released for unlimited use.
