2、or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers a rapid means of determiningchloride content of aviation tu
3、rbine fuel.This methodology isapplicable for chloride concentrations between 0 mg L to0.5 mgL.This methodology will not detect chlorine originat-ing from chlorinated organic compounds(that is,covalentbond).1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement

9、 Use4.1 Chloride present in aviation turbine fuel can originatefrom refinery salt drier carryover or possibly from seawatercontamination(for example,product transferred by barge).Elevated chloride levels have caused corrosive and abrasivewear of aircraft fuel control systems leading to engine failur
10、e.45.Interferences5.1 Some pH 7 buffer solution can contain trace levels ofchloride compounds and therefore produce a false positivereading on the chloride test strip.Prior to using a new batch ofpH 7 buffer solution,a sample should be confirmed to produceno reading on the chloride test strip.5.2 Th
