Containers & Handling

  • Use only certified clean containers; avoid unlined metal for corrosion tests.
  • Prevent environmental ingress during the into-plane sampling process.
  • Flush valves thoroughly to ensure the sample represents the bulk aviation turbine fuel stock.

Transport & Logistics

  • Include accurate records of sampling temperature and point of origin.
  • Expedited shipping to our Houston laboratory for time-sensitive cargo lifts.
  • Samples stored in a temperature-controlled environment per technical safety compliance standards.

Quality & Reporting

Reports from our Fuel Testing Services provide technical clarity for flight readiness and regulatory audit compliance for Jet A-1 analysis.

  • COA with method references, results, and certified authorized signatory.
  • Secure PDF Delivery via automated client technical portal.
  • Measurement uncertainty data for critical spec limits like flash point.
  • Consultation for out-of-spec conductivity or particulate contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is conductivity (ASTM D2624) critical for jet fuel?
Jet fuel can build up static charge during high-speed pumping. ASTM D2624 measures conductivity to ensure static dissipator additives (SDA) are functioning correctly to prevent sparks and safety hazards.
Can you detect microbial growth in aviation turbine fuel?
Yes, we offer specialized screening for microbial contamination. Early detection is vital for preventing fuel probe errors and biological corrosion in aircraft wing tanks.
How fast can I get jet fuel results?
Routine analysis via our Aviation Fuel Testing Services is typically delivered within 24 to 48 hours. We offer expedited rush support for Houston-area port operations.
What is the impact of free water and freeze point?
Free water can freeze at altitude and block fuel filters. Freeze point analysis ensures the aviation turbine fuel remains fluid at extreme high-altitude temperatures.
