本SAE航空航天信息报告（AIR）审查了燃气轮机发动机和APU主燃料系统中使用的燃料过滤器元件的性能测试参数。该范围仅限于额定值为35？m（c）或更细的主燃油滤清器滤芯，它们构成了当代发动机主燃油系统的大部分过滤。本文件不涉及特定于燃油滤清器滤芯的结冰试验，因为它们仅适用于某些发动机设计，并且是定制的试验程序。飞机燃油系统部件结冰试验的一般信息可在ARP1401中找到。 本文件也不涉及燃油液压系统中使用的燃油滤清器滤芯，因为它不在本文件的范围内。本文件仅限于对滤清器滤芯性能进行实验室测试，以鉴定过滤介质和滤清器滤芯结构，而不是鉴定整个燃油滤清器总成。在这里讨论的测试之后，通常会对整个燃油滤清器总成（包括滤芯、壳体、阀组等）进行实验室和发动机测试。 )这超出了空气污染的范围。

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) reviews performance testing parameters for fuel filter elements utilized in gas turbine engine and APU main fuel systems. The scope is limited to main fuel filter elements rated at 35 ¿¿m(c), or finer, which constitute the majority of contemporary engine main fuel system filtration. This document does not address icing tests specific to fuel filter elements since they are only required for certain engine designs and are custom test procedures. General information on icing tests for aircraft fuel system components can be found in ARP1401. This document also does not address fuel filter elements utilized in fuel hydraulic systems since it is outside the scope of this document,This document is confined to laboratory testing of filter element performance to qualify the filtration medium and filter element construction as opposed to qualification of the complete fuel filter assembly. The testing discussed here is usually followed by laboratory and on-engine testing of the entire fuel filter assembly (including filter element, housing, valving, etc.) which is outside the scope of this AIR.
