Fuel dilution can also cause intercooler leakage in aircraft hydraulic systems.
For example, in diesel engine crankcases, contamination can be caused by excessive idling, defective injectors and loose connections. The headspace vapour sampling approach also eliminates the need to heat fuel-laden samples and does not require the use of solvents.įuel dilution in lubrication oil can cause serious engine damage. The sampling occurs using a headspace system with repeatability of <+5 percent RSD up to 15 percent fuel content. The Q6000 was designed with a patent-protected sampling method using an innovative ‘fang’ design. The Q6000 Fuel Dilution Meter (FDM) is a portable fuel dilution meter that can be used in the laboratory or in the field to provide rapid and accurate measurements of fuel contamination in engine oil.
