33、licable at the installed location. 4.2 Materials of Construction All materials in contact with the fuel and not specified elsewhere in this document shall be corrosion resistant and shall not be adversely affected by or affect the fuel. Except for pumps which may be unlined steel, all metallic compo

34、nents and piping shall be of aluminum, stainless steel, or internally lined carbon steel, as required by local code. All material in contact with the fuel shall also be free of cadmium, lead, or zinc. Brass components shall be minimized but accepted in hose couplings and sump drain valves. Copper co

35、mponents will be minimized but accepted in drain lines that render the product as waste fuel. Non-metallic materials shall not affect or be adversely affected by the fuel under any operating conditions specified for any equipment handling the product. 4.3 Refueling System Test Stand Design Requireme

36、nts The test stand shall be designed with the minimum components and instrumentation as shown in the attached drawing in Appendix A. The components shall have the following minimum requirements to perform a complete test of an aircraft refueling vehicle: 4.3.1 Fuel Hydrant Discharge System The fuel

37、hydrant discharge system shall have a piping system with the outlet terminating with a hydrant valve. The fuel hydrant discharge system shall have the following minimum requirements: 4.3.1.1 Comply with ASME B31.3 and NFPA 407 requirements. 4.3.1.2 Pumping system capable of continuously pumping the

38、product at the stable steady Discharge Pressure listed below. The test piping shall be equipped with a pressure control system that maintains a stable fuel pressure within 2 psig within any period of time during the complete test. The system shall also be capable of continuously pumping at the desig

39、nated pressure, the minimum flow rate listed below. The Discharge System shall be set to operate as follows: SAE ARP5918 - 5 - Discharge Pressure: 150 psig or the highest steady pressure that is achieved at any hydrant on the airport hydrant system where the vehicle is used (Measured by the hydrant

40、fuel pressure gauge) Discharge Flow: Flow rate that is 20% higher than the flow rating of the Aircraft Refueler (as designated by the Aircraft Refueler OEM) 4.3.1.3 Except for airport installations, Filter-Separator and/or filter-monitor vessel(s) that filters all fuel before dispensing it through t

41、he hydrant valve. 4.3.1.4 Hydrant valve that meets all API/EI 1584 requirements, unless a different hydrant valve is used on the airport hydrant system where the vehicle is used. The hydrant valve shall have the same components, operation, and performance as the hydrant valves used on the airport hy

42、drant system where the vehicle is used. 4.3.1.5 Hydrant fuel pressure gauge that measures the fuel pressure directly upstream of the hydrant valve. The gauge shall be a digital gauge with a pressure transducer. The gauge shall be calibrated and have a range of 0 to 200 psig and a minimum accuracy of

43、 2% of full scale. The gauge shall also have test ports to calibrate and test its accuracy. 4.3.1.6 Fuel flow meter that measures all fuel dispensed through the test stand. The meter shall be capable of being calibrated to +/-0.1% and 0.05% repeatability and be rated for the operating pressure and f
