Summary o

17、f Test Method4.1 Aknown volume of fuel is filtered through a preweighedtest membrane filter in a field monitor and the increase inmembrane filter mass determined after washing and drying.The change in mass of a control membrane filter locatedimmediately below the test membrane filter is also determi

18、ned.The objective of using a control membrane is to assess whetherthe fuel itself influences the weight of a membrane. Theparticulate contaminant is determined from the increase inmass of the test membrane filter relative to the controlmembrane filter.4.2 This test method employs a field monitor to

19、filter asample of fuel that is taken in the field by the samplingprocedure detailed in Annex A2.4.3 For situations where it is not possible to take a fieldmonitor sample, procedures are given in Test Method D 5452for the determination of particulate contaminant in a fuelsample by laboratory filtrati

Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a gravimetric measurement ofthe particulate matter present in a sample of aviation turbinefuel by line sampling. The objective is to minimize thesecontaminants to avoid fi

21、lter plugging and other operationalproblems. Although tolerable levels of particulate contami-nants have not yet been established for all points in fueldistribution systems, the total contaminant measurement isnormally of most interest. The Appendix X1 color ratingmethod is useful for fuel system mo

Preparation of Test and Control Membrane Filtersand Field Monitors Prior to Sampling8.1 Two 37-mm membrane filters of nominal pore size 0.8m are required: a test and a control membrane filter. Matched-weight membrane filters may be used if so desired (see Note 1

35、).If matched-weight membrane filters are used, it is unnecessaryto carry out the procedures detailed in this section because theyhave been carried out previously by the membrane filtersupplier. The two membrane filters used for each individualtest should be identified by marking the petri dishes use
