4 Litre Closed Circuit Sampler

The document describes an Aljac Closed Circuit Sampler (CCS) that improves aviation fuel sampling procedures. The CCS consists of a clear glass tube fitted to a white epoxy coated conical base. Fuel is drawn into the CCS under pressure, where it vortexes and any contamination is easily detected in the center. Options include fittings for water detection tests, hydrometer and thermometer pockets, and external sampling ports. The CCS provides a safer and more effective way to check fuel quality compared to traditional open sampling methods.
