Scope
This document is applicable to commercial and military aircraft fuel quantity indication systems. It is intended to give guidance for system design and installation. It describes key areas to be considered in the design of a modern fuel system, and builds upon experiences gained in the industry in the last 10 years.
Rationale
This guidance document has been produced in an effort to record best practice in fuel gauging system design and indicate those things which should be considered in the design of a new fuel gauging system in order to achieve an accurate and reliable fuel quantity indicating system (FQIS). It is also intended to capture changes in design practice since ARINC 611-1 was issued in 1999.

AE-5A Aerospace Fuel, Inerting and Lubrication Sys Committee
Welcome to the AE-5A, Aerospace Fuel, Inerting and Lubriation Systems public forum area.
Scope: Has responsibility for the resolution of problems in either design or service usage of aerospace fuel, oil and oxidizer systems, their components such as valves, pumps, couplings, fuel cells, quantity and flow gages, and tanks, and related problems as presure surger, icing, electrification, and safety. Develops standards addressing fuel, oil and oxidizer systems.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
