MINIMONITOR ASSEMBLY (HOUSING/VALVE/TUBING)

THE MINIMONITOR® IS USED TO TEST AVIATION FUEL FOR PARTICULATE CONTAMINATION USING THE PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN ASTM D2276/IP216. 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.
