This standard was originally published in 1960 and subsequently revised in 1965, 1967, 1976, 1982, 1985, 1992 and 2001. This revision has been formulated as a result of a review of the standard in light of the present day requirements of the products and in order to align it with British Ministry of Defence specification DEF STAN 91-91 (DERD 2494) (Issue 5, 8 February 2005, Amendment 1, 31 March 2006 and Amendment 2, March 2007). Assistance has also been derived from ASTM D 1655-04a, Aviation Fuel Quality Requirements for Jointly Operated System (AFQRIOS-Issue 20 March 2005), Guidance Material for Aviation Fuel Specifications (Sth Edition, Tanuary 2004) issued by IATA and GOST 10227: 1986 Specifications. The need for International Coordination among recognized standard of other countries on the subject is particularly significant for the product of this type since re-fueling of aircraft in different countries is often involved. ‘The approved additive systems, namely, antioxidants, metal deactivator (MDA), sfatie dissipater additive (SDA), lubricity improver additive (LIA) and fuel system icing inhibita¢ 25 >8 $25, but 215 >S <15 >3 B-3 Normally fuel colour ranges from water white (colourless) toa straw/pale yellow. Other fuel colours may be the result of crude oil characteristics or refining process. If unusual colours are produced at the point of manufacture, this should be noted on the batch certificate to provide information to downstream users. Unusual colours such as pink, re green or blue that do not significantly impact the Saybolt Colour number should also be investigated to the cause. IS 1571 : 2008 ANNEX C (Table 1, Footnote 2) PARTICULATE CONTAMINATION (informative) C-I The visual appearance of the product is a good indication of contamination and remains a key requirement for fuel throughout the distribution system. However, interpretation of the appearance requirement can lead to problems due to the subjective nature of the visual assessment. Therefore, a quantitative limit has been established for particulate contamination, A ‘maximum particulate contamination of 1.0 mg/l, when tested to IP 423/ASTM D 5452, shall apply at point of ‘manufacture only. C-2 Fuels containing visual particulate or with particulate levels greater than 1.0 mg/l will require additional handling procedures, such as extended settling and/or filtration, C-3 Where fuel is being delivered into aircraft, the TATA Guidance Material for Aviation Turbine Fuels. Part Il —Cleanliness and Handling, shall be referred to for appropriate information on contamination limits.
