MIL-DTL-83133H
3.3.7 Premixing of additives. Additives shall not be premixed with other additives before injection
into the fuel so as to prevent possible reactions among the concentrated forms of different additives.
3.4 Workmanship. At the time of Government acceptance, the finished fuel shall be visually free
from undissolved water, sediment, or suspended matter and shall be clear and bright. In case of dispute,
the fuel shall be clear and bright at 21 °C (70 °F) and shall contain no more than 1.0 mg/L of particulate
matter as required in Table I.
3.5 Recycled, recovered, or environmentally preferable materials. Recycled, recovered, or
environmentally preferable materials should be used to the maximum extent possible, provided that the
material meets or exceeds the operational and maintenance requirements, and promotes economically
advantageous life cycle costs.
4. VERIFICATION
4.1 Classification of inspections. The inspection requirements specified herein are classified as
quality conformance inspections (see 4.2).
4.2 Qualification inspection conditions. Test for acceptance of individual lots shall consist of
tests for all requirements specified in section 3. Quality conformance inspection shall include the test
requirement herein.
4.2.1 Inspection lot. For acceptance purposes, individual lots shall be examined as specified
herein and subjected to tests for all requirements cited in section 3.
4.3 Inspection.
4.3.1 Inspection conditions.
4.3.1.1 Refined hydrocarbon material. Fuel supplied from traditionally refined hydrocarbon
distillate fuel oil meeting requirements of 3.1 shall comply with the specified limiting values in Table I
using the cited test methods. The specified limiting values must not be changed. This precludes any
allowance for test method precision and adding or subtracting digits. For the purposes of determining
conformance with the specified limiting values, an observed value or a calculated value shall be rounded
off "to the nearest unit" in the last right hand place of digits used in expressing the specified limiting value,
in accordance with the Rounding-Off Method of ASTM E29.
4.3.1.2 Synthesized hydrocarbon material. Fuel supplied containing synthesized materials
meeting requirements of Table A-I or Table B-I as stipulated in 3.1.1 shall comply with the specified
limiting values in Table I and Table A-II or Table B-II, respectively, using the cited test methods. The
specified limiting values must not be changed. This precludes any allowance for test method precision
and adding or subtracting digits. For the purposes of determining conformance with the specified limiting
values, an observed value or a calculated value shall be rounded off "to the nearest unit" in the last right
hand place of digits used in expressing the specified limiting value, in accordance with the Rounding-Off
Method of ASTM E29.
4.4 Sampling plans.
4.4.1 Sampling. Each bulk or packaged lot of material shall be sampled for verification of
product quality in accordance with ASTM D4057 or ASTM D4177, except where individual test
procedures contain specific sampling instructions.
4.4.2 Sampling for inspection of filled containers. A random sample of filled containers shall be
selected from each lot and shall be subjected to the examination of filled containers as specified in
4.5.1.3.
4.5 Methods of inspection.
4.5.1 Examination of product.
4.5.1.1 Visual inspection. Samples selected in accordance with 4.4.1 shall be visually examined
for compliance with 3.4.
