icoµnt Particle Monitoring Systems

ACM20 Parker Filtration continues, through technical expertise and proven products, to retain a world class position as an innovator in designing and manufacturing fluid contamination monitoring and analysis equipment. We ensure our customers can maintain the cleanliness of their fuel, storage, and hydraulic systems.

Recently Parker Filtration’s development engineers have successfully designed and manufactured a ‘family’ of icoµnt contamination analyzers, particle detectors, and bottle samplers.

The Parker ACM20 Portable Particle Counter has been developed from existing technology for monitoring contamination in AvTur and other Hydrocarbon fuels, in accordance with the EnergyInstitute (EI) Method IP 564.

In addition, the ACM20 can also be used to monitor various fuels from existing sampling points in locations from refineries, pipelines, distribution terminals, airport fuel supply systems all the way through to the point of uplift into aircraft*.

* Hot works permit required for online sampling (ATEX Zone II unit available).

There are many reasons why the ACM20, portable particle counter, is a world-beater. Users are attracted to its ease of use in the field, and in the laboratory. Others recognise the manufacturing quality, reliability and the potential for improved monitoring of fuel supply systems that until now have required laboratory analysis to confirm contamination levels. Then there are those who find originality and innovation irresistible qualities that when combined provide a fluid condition monitor that will out-perform the rest.

Accredited to US Standards and achieving full ISO certification and calibration to the latest ISO Medium Test Dust Standards, the ACM20 offers users advanced laser technology and a fast, dynamic on-line two minute test cycle.

In addition to the standard unit there is also an ATEX, hazardous environment version so as to avoid unnecessary risk in locations where flammable vapors may be present.

Fuel Testing Laboratories – DefStan 9191 – In order to better understand dispersed contamination in jet fuel, particle counting is now included alongside existing laboratory techniques

Bottle Sampling - Energy Institute (EI) - IP 564 – Laboratory determination of the level of dispersed contamination in aviation kerosine using an Automatic Particle Counter (APC)

Replace Clear & Bright and Gravimetric – With the introduction of the ACM20, all subjectivity surrounding Clear & Bright and Gravimetric methods can be removed

Also for use on petroleum based hydraulic applications (Skydrol compatible available) – Suitable for use with mineral oil and petroleum based fluid as per standard hydraulic particle counter, reporting fluid cleanliness to ISO 4406:1999

The Parker ACM20 portable particle counter, for use in measuring the levels of contamination in fuels, as per the Energy Institute Test Method IP564, has now been included in the DEFSTAN 9191 Jet Fuel Specification as a report only test, alongside the current gravimetric test method (IP423 or ASTM D5452), and clear & bright visual test method (IP216 or ASTM D2276).




Repeatable, reproducible, and in real time. The ACM20 offers the following user benefits:

Case StudiesIn a recent study carried out at a major international airport, an ACM20 was used to monitor refueling activities. The results proved there were levels of solid contamination throughout the hydrant system that were previously undetected by current methods. As a result the hydrant was flushed and readings were reduced to acceptable levels.

In another airport, elements were removed from a filter water separator vessel, which were found to have ruptured due to a reverse flow in the system. Only the ACM20 detected the element failure and then proved that the newly installed elements were working correctly.

Primary output. Six cumulative particle size channels ranging from >4µm(c) to >30µm(c) and numbers per ml in accordance with ISO4406-1999.

Secondary diagnostic output. reporting % volume distribution, indicating presence of free water due to Bi-modal curve.

Recognized as a suitable/possible replacement for subjective test methods such as clear & bright and gravimetric Millipore™.

Quick and easy 2 minute test, with very little waste (typically 125ml per test).

Totally portable, easy to use in the field or the laboratory.

Connected to the process line via existing Millipore™ fittings already in use for other industry equipment.

Used in other applications such as filter performance, pipeline commissioning and extending service intervals of supply systems.

300 downloadable test memory allowing for trend analysis and upkeep of statistical records to predict and save routine maintenance, resulting in less downtime.

Data retrieval of test results from memory via hand set display.

User friendly instrument improves familiarity and awareness of fuel systems.

Traceable to ISO11171 for SRM2806 through ISO11943 principles.

ACM20 With Lab KitTesting Set-up:The testing unit should be set up in accordance with manufacturers’ operating instructions

Test Portion:Pour a minimum of 15oz. of the field sample into a clean test portion container

Test Preparation:Prior to starting a test, tumble the test portion end over end for 60 seconds to ensure any settled particles are redistributed

Flush System:Flush the equipment with the new test sample for 60 seconds prior to starting the test

Start Testing:Following the flush, start a test by turning the blue valve in the direction indicated

Laboratory Kit: The ACM20 with additional laboratory kit is proposed as an alternative method for use within DefStan 9191 – the standard for aviation turbine fuel*.

The Oil Delivery Unit (ODU) laboratory kit is a peristaltic pump unit that allows fuel to be pumped through the ACM20 for testing purposes offline.

*Note: Energy Institue EI Method (IP PM DK/07) specifically details the test method used for the ACM202024 (lab unit). It has been included in DEF STAN 91-91 Issue 6 - “Annex F - Information on Particulate Contamination” as an alternative to the current subjective test methods such as Clear and Bright and Gravimetric Millipore.
