FIJI - Fame in Jet Instrument for Rapid Screening to IP 583
FIJI - FAME in Jet Instrument analyses DEF STAN 91-91 and ASTM D1655 Jet Fuels
IP 583 "Determination of the fatty acid methyl esters content of aviation turbine fuel with Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy – Rapid screening method".
The FIJI - FAME in Jet Instrument measures the FAME (fatty acid methyl esters) content levels in AVTUR fuel (20-150 mg/kg) to check they are within acceptable industry limits.
- Measures the presence of all FAME (fatty acid methyl esters) types in AVTUR
- Analysis time 20 minutes (assuming instrument at operating temperature)
- Laboratory and field instrument
- Suitable for untrained operators
- No hydrocarbon cleaning solvents required
- 50 ml sample volume
- Measuring range 20-150 mg/kg
- 110/240V operation & 15V option
- USB connection to PC/Laptop
- Windows based, XP/Vista compliant software
- Footprint size 36 x 37 x 45 cm
- Patent Pending
Measurement Principle using FTIR
Using a unique sample presentation module (patent pending) the sample is pumped at a regulated flow rate though a proprietary disposable cartridge that is interfaced with the instrument. The sample components are spectrally analysed by the FTIR and a result is displayed within typically 20 minutes. The results are displayed as a simple go /no go for field use (user definable limits); mg/kg results and a graphical/spectra are also displayed. The system is self cleaning so no solvents are required. After each test the cartridge is simply and easy replaced and the instrument is immediately ready for the next sample.
Fuel Contamination problems prompt the need for testing…
- In many cases Diesel and JET use shared multi-product pipelines which can lead to Fuel Contamination.
- FAME is surface active and sticks to the pipelines which causes Fuel Contamination.
- JET can release FAME from tankers and pipelines which creates the potential for cross contamination
- Whenever fuel is moved or stored there is the potential for fuel contamination
- Reliable operating procedures are necessary to prevent airports suffering from the disruption of fueling
Who should use the FIJI - FAME in Jet Instrument?
- Airports, Pipelines, Jetties
- Refineries and Fuel Blending Locations
- Tank Storage Terminals
- Laboratories & Cargo Inspection
