Aviation turbine fuel

SI 5563 - Aviation Turbine Fuel; (55 page(s), in English), (8 page(s), in Hebrew)

Revision of the Mandatory Standard SI 5563 dealing with aviation turbine fuel. This proposed standard revision adopts the British Defence Standard 91-091 - Issue 14: 07 March 2022, with a few deviations that appear in the Hebrew standard's section.

The major differences between the old standard and this new proposed revision are as follows:

·        Adds new requirements for the maximum allowed number of particles for four particle sizes out of the six sizes specified in the standard;

·        Deletes one of the automatic test methods for particle counting;

·        Deletes the obligation to report the amount of aviation turbine fuel (in percentages) that has undergone light/moderate hydrogen treatment.
