Velcon has received the following approvals for its products:
- Navy MIL-PRF-32148
- Army MIL-PRF-52308J
- Army MIL-F-8901E
- EI 1581 5th Edition, M100 & M Categories
For refuellers that had previously used
4” diameter DOD coalescers, Velcon
has developed and qualified cartridges to
meet the new EI 1581 5th Edition
Specification.
This specification
provides for two military categories -
Category M for JP8 fuels, and Category
M100 for JP8 fuels with thermal stability
additive (Spec Aid 8Q462). Velcon has
qualified:
• Category M - Models I-420MM & I-
440MM, as direct replacements for
DOD-sized cartridges, and
• Category M100 Models I-420A4 & I-
44A4 are directly interchangeable
with DOD-sized cartridges.
For refuellers with vessels containing 6”
diameter coalescer cartridges, Velcon has developed and qualified coalescers to
meet EI 1581 5th Edition, Category
M - Model I-6xxMM, where “xx” represents
the length of the cartridge. These
coalescers can be supplied with
threaded base mounting ends or with
conventional flat caps.
