SAE ARp1827 Measuring Aircraft Gas Turbine Engine Fine Fuel Filter Element Performance

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) delineates two complementary filter element performance ratings: (1) dirt capacity, and (2) filtration efficiency, and corresponding test procedures. It is intended for non-cleanable (disposable), fine fuel filter elements used in aviation gas turbine engine fuel systems.

  • You choose the micron size particles you would like to test the efficiency for

  • You choose the flowrate, fluid type, contaminant, and reporting units

  • Send us your filters, filter media, or flat sheet media

  • Send us your filter housing if available

  • We can help you with any questions you have to ensure the testing meets your or your client’s needs

  • This test can be customized for any special requirement you may have
