Sample points.
The high-pressure fuel sampling assembly is installed in
the pipeline one-half to one mile upstream from the TPT. This assembly is
used to spot the interface as it approaches the TPT and to give advance
warning of its arrival.
The low-pressure fuel sampling assembly is installed in the header,
feeding the TPT switching manifold from the pipeline. The primary use of
this fuel sampling assembly is to check incoming fuel and establish the
end or last of the interface between batches of different specification
fuel. It can also be used to spot sample and check the quality of
incoming fuel and to draw samples for laboratory testing.
The water detector kit adapter is in the discharge line of each filter
separator. The primary purpose is to check the quality and make sure no
water is carried over the dispensing assembly. Samples from the adapter
using the aviation fuel contamination test kit are taken downstream of
each filter separator to ensure that the filter separators are performing
properly and customers are provided quality fuel that meets
specification.
Perform three checks at 15-minute intervals after filter separator is
first put into operation or whenever the elements are changed.
