Aerospace - Deicing/Anti-Icing Self-Propelled Vehicle Functional Requirements
- Aerospace Standard
- ARP4806A
- Cancelled
Scope
This document specifies the general functional and performance requirements for a self-propelled, boom type aerial device equipped with an aircraft deicing/anti- icing fluid (ADF) spraying system. The unit shall be highly maneuverable for deicing and anti-icing all exterior surfaces of wide-body and narrow-body aircraft, e.g., B747 and DC9. The vehicle shall be suitable for day and night operations. The vehicle and all associated systems shall operate satisfactorily under the temperature conditions between -40 and 50 degrees C (-40 and 122 degrees F) and in continuous humidity of up to 100%.
It is not within the scope of this document to specify a comprehensive set of technical design criteria for aircraft deicing/anti-icing vehicles but only those relating to functional and performance requirements.

Issuing Committee
The SAE G-12 Aircraft Ground Deicing committee addresses all facets of aircraft ground deicing equipment design, maintenance, operation, and in-service experience. It provides a focal point for the related activities of the various specialty groups and committees dealing with aircraft ground deicing. The group is comprised of eight subcommittees dedicated to creating, preparing, and maintaining all relevant specifications, standards, and requirements for aircraft ground deicing systems. These subcommittees include:
G-12DF Deicing Facilities G-12HOT Hold-over Testing G-12M Methods G-12F Fluids G-12E Equipment G-12ID Ice Detection G-12T Training G-12FG Future Deicing Participants in the SAE G-12 committee include OEMs, suppliers, aircraft ground deicing equipment companies, consulting firms, government and others across the aerospace and defense industries.
