Avgas, Aviation Fueling
From Blackmer
 

 
The aviation industry continues to grow and expand. Form the smallest airstrip to the largest international airport, all planes require fuel. This can range from fueling a 2- seater Cessna with an FM approved 210A HAND PUMP to refueling a Boeing 777. With the strainers, filterseparators, meters and long pipe hose lengths required, you will often encounter relatively high working pressures. It is not unusual to find a requirement of 60-125 PSI. Aviation fuels typically contain very light (high vapor pressures) additives that require special attention when applying our pump equipment. The intake conditions of the system MUST be carefully reviewed to insure the suction pressure does not result in cavitation. If in question, contact the Blackmer Application Specialists. Blackmer models X, GX, MLX, or HLX will provide the long life and excellent service our customers have come to expect from Blackmer. With flow ranges from 5 to 2,000 GPM, loading trucks for transfer to tank farms, offloading the trucks and transferring fuel to the airport's hydrant system are all typical applications for Blackmer pumps.

Products & Services
Gas distribution systems consist of vaporizers, gas cabinets, gas manifolds, mass flow controllers, valves, pressure sensors and associated interconnect tubing configured to deliver bulk and specialty gases to process equipment.
Injection pumps are designed to inject measured amounts of fluid into a reservoir or production system.
Loading arms are used to load liquids into tanks, trucks, railcars, and other vehicles. They are commonly used in fueling and fluid transfer applications.
Drum pumps are used to transfer materials from a container into a process or other container. They may be electrically, hydraulically, or pneumatically powered depending on the working environment or application.
Explosion-proof pumps prevent internal or external explosions by enclosing parts that could ignite either the transfer media or the surrounding atmosphere.
