Scope
The scope of this Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) covers where, when, and how often to sample hydraulic system fluid on aerospace vehicles for particulate contamination measurements. The measurement of hydraulic fluid particulate contamination is of concern to the aerospace community because of the critical importance of hydraulic equipment reliability. Contamination is always present in the system fluid, even in new unused fluid. Contamination must be below a level that will not adversely affect system operation. This ARP draws from aerospace industry experience and practice to establish criteria for fluid contamination sampling recommendations in aerospace vehicle hydraulic systems. Fluid samples can then be subjected to measurement of particulate contamination and of other harmful contaminants such as chlorinated solvents and water.

Issuing Committee
A-6A1 Commercial Aircraft Committee
The Commercial Aircraft Panel is responsible for the development of standards and recommended practices related to the integration of fluid power and actuation technologies into commercial air vehicles. The Panel provides a forum for aircraft manufacturers, suppliers, airworthiness regulatory engineers and operators to exchange technical information and discuss regulatory updates, recent technology developments, lessons learned, and issues related to system development and in service operation.

* 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.
