 MINI-MONITOR
The MiniMonitor® Kit is used to test aviation fuel for particulate contamination using
the procedures described in ASTM D2276. A measured volume of fuel is passed from a flowing
pipe directly through a 0.8 micrometer membrane. The plastic monitor holding the membrane
is placed in an aluminum housing. Dirt particles are caught on the membrane, which can be
visually color rated or weighed for a gravimetric rating.

DEADMAN & WATER CONTROL SYSTEMS
Explosion proof controls
for 120 – 240 VAC 50/60hz & 6 – 48 VDC These intrinsically safe rated
systems utilize U.L. Listed Class I, Division I, Group D components and a U.L. listed
intrinsically safe control (Please note that controls on DC units are MESA, not U.L.).
Power levels in the cord and handle and/or the water sensor are too low to cause a shock
or fire even if the cord is severed. NOTE: Conductive type water controls should NOT
be used on systems pumping fuel with anti icing additive (DiEGME/Prist®) as used by
the military, Phillips, and some other oil companies.

AIRCRAFT FUELING HOSE TESTER
This tester is designed to
perform integrity tests on hose assemblies used in the refueling of aircraft. A thorough
inspection of the hose should be done before testing, and if any significant flaw is
found, the test should not be run. The purpose of this test is to ensure that the
couplings are still secure and that no physical flaw exists that cannot be seen on a
physical inspection. Air MUST NOT BE PRESENT in the system or else, in the
event of a failure of the hose or a fitting, the trapped air will cause an
explosive release carrying particles at high speed as it expands.

TANK GAUGING TAPES
Selecting The correct tape
for your application depends not only on the depth of the tank but the types of
fuels or oils in your tanks. The chromium plated steel tape is exceptionally good for dark
oils because the contrast between the wetted and non-wetted surface is easily recognized.

In-Tank Samplers
The unique Model GTP-9021 was
developed specifically to fit through the small gauging found on U.S. Air Force bases
where level gauging electric cables are also present. It was important that there be no
tangling of our sampler with those cables and that the cables not be damaged. Therefore,
the outside diameter is only 3.1 in. (79 mm)

HIGH PRESSURE MEMBRANE TESTER PERFORMS FUEL TESTS TO
ASTM D2676 AT PRESSURES UP TO 450 PSI
• STAINLESS STEEL HOUSING AND VALVE
• FLUSHING HOSE
• INCLUDES GROUNDING AND BONDING HOSE AND ASTM COLOR BOOK
Jet fuel particulate
contamination testing is performed to ASTM D2276 and IP-216. Conventional equipment on the
market is not suitable for high pressures. This is because the plastic monitor is only
rated for 100 psi. Gammon Technical Products has designed a housing which allows testing
using standard plastic monitors up to 450 psi.

Differential Pressure Limiting Pilot
Many filter systems
operate under the threat of a sudden influx of contamination that plugs the filter
elements. Recently, water absorbing elements have added to this concern. If no one is
watching the differential pressure gauge at the time, you can burst the elements, with the
dirt and debris going downstream, possibly into the aircraft. We designed the Gammon
DP-Pilot so you can forget about element bursting or deck plate damage with any type
of element, even the water absorbing elements.

HEAVY DUTY NOZZLE STRAINER 1" NPT
This simple product serves
an important function, providing a "last line of defense" to prevent you from
dispensing debris from your nozzle. Our heavy duty strainer is made of 6061-T6 aircraft
grade aluminum with a 100 mesh 300 series stainless steel cone strainer and Dupont Viton
gasket, compatible with almost any liquid product from motor oil to Avgas. It was
developed primarily for use with the OPW 7 series automatic nozzle, an excellent nozzle,
but due to being automatic, it cannot accept a spout strainer. Fits any 1" npt
nozzle. Do not use nozzles with hold-open devices for aviation fuels or self-service
installations.

GAUGE TESTS FUELING ADAPTERS FOR EXCESSIVE
WEAR IN LESS THAN 1 MINUTE
Leakage during refueling
is often caused by excessive wear on the underside of the 3 lugs that are located on the
outer edge of the fueling adapter. This wear reduces the sealing force between the nose
seal of the refueling nozzle and the sealing face on the adapter. To check for lug wear,
set the gauge in the adapter and rotate it so that the gauging pin moves toward the lug.
If the pin passes under the lug, wear is excessive.
