Optical equipment safety in fuel tanks
2018-11-15
WIP
ARP7977
This project aims to develop a framework of requirements which support safe installation and operation of optical devices within an aircraft fuel tank, specifically: 1: To determine optical power and energy limits which ensure safe operation of optical installations within an aircraft fuel tank over aircraft life and under all phases of flight, taking the limits provided in IEC 60079-28:20015 as a starting point. 2: To demonstrate optical and electrical power and energy equivalences, where possible. 3: To determine requirements for optical installations, including bonding and electrostatic discharge for non-conductive components such as optical fibres. 4: To provide guidelines for analysis of the hazards presented by the typical internal components of optical devices, such as failure modes of photo diodes and cells.

Minimization of Electrostatic Hazards in Aircraft Fuel Systems
2013-08-09
HISTORICAL
AIR1662A
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides background information, technical data and related technical references for minimization of electrostatic hazards in aircraft fuel systems. Techniques used to minimize the electrostatic hazard include: a Reducing fueling rate into tank bays including use of multiple refueling inlet nozzles. b Reducing refuel plumbing flow velocities. c Introducing fuel into the tank at a low velocity near the bottom and directing it to impinge upon a grounded conducting surface. d Avoiding electrically isolated conductors in the fuel tank. e Using conductivity additives in the fuel.

Method-Pressure Drop Tests for Fuel System Components
2013-08-09
HISTORICAL
ARP868C
This document provides recommended methods and describes associated equipment and test setups to assist in understanding and conducting pressure drop tests on fuel system components. Background information and suggestions are provided as means of improving accuracy and repeatability of test results. Although written specifically for fuel system components, the methods, equipment and suggestions presented herein apply equally to pressure drop tests of other liquid-handling devices.

GRAVITY REFUELING NOZZLES AND PORTS INTERFACE STANDARD FOR CIVIL AIRCRAFT
1984-12-01
HISTORICAL
AS1852
This Aerospace Standard (AS) defines maximum free opening dimensions for airframe refueling ports on civil aircraft that require the exclusive use of aviation gasolines, and minimum free opening dimensions for airframe refueling ports on civil aircraft that operate with turbine fuels as a primary fuel type. In addition, this document defines the minimum refueling nozzle tip dimensions for turbine fuels ground service equipment, and the maximum refueling nozzle tip diameter dimension for aviation gasolines ground service equipment.

Fuel Level Point Sensing
2020-11-30
CURRENT
AIR6325
This report is intended to identify the various existing technologies used for a fuel level sensing system. In addition to sensing technologies, it describes the basic architecture of fuel level sensing systems and their association with fuel gauging system to increase integrity of fuel measurement and management. As the fuel level sensing system is generally based on electrical components within fuel tanks, a specific focus is made on fuel tank explosion safety protection. An overview of the capacitive fuel gauging operation can be found in AIR5691.

Fluid-System-Component Specification Preparation Criteria
2013-10-04
CURRENT
AIR1082C
The importance of adequate component procurement specifications to the success of a hardware development program cannot be overemphasized. Specifications which are too stringent can be as detrimental as specifications which are too lax. Performance specifications must not only identify all of the component requirements, but they must also include sufficient quality assurance provisions so that compliance can be verified. It should be understood that in almost every case specifications for components will ultimately become part of a BINDING, WRITTEN CONTRACT (PO). The purpose of this document is to describe types of specifications, provide guidance for the preparation of fluid component specifications, and identify documents commonly referenced in fluid component specifications.
