Product Description

MicrobMonitor®2 provides a reliable, fully-quantitative assessment of microbiological contamination in fuels, oils and associated waters, in accordance with ASTM D7978 and IP613. This easy-to-use test kit can be used in the field or in the laboratory and allows users to detect microbial growth before it becomes a problem.

TRUSTED +

MicrobMonitor®2 enables testing in accordance with globally recognised standards, ASTM D7978 and IP613. IATA and leading airframe OEM’s recommend routine microbiological testing of aircraft fuel tanks to ensure systems remain free of contamination. MicrobMonitor2 is widely recommended by airframe OEM’s (including Boeing and Airbus) for this purpose and is used by many of the world’s commercial airlines and fuel handling operators.

INNOVATIVE +

Anyone can easily use the MicrobMonitor®2 kit, by adding a small amount of fuel or water directly to the glass bottle of specially formulated testing gel. The test kit can also be used at varying levels of sensitivity, allowing users to quantitatively test and operate to the detection limits relevant to their application or industry guidance standards.

ACCURATE +

MicrobMonitor®2 has been validated by independent Energy Institute studies and brings the accuracy of tried and trusted laboratory test technology into an easy-to-use field test kit.  Results obtained using this microbial test kit have been shown to correlate with standard laboratory method IP385.

DEPENDABLE +

The test detects very low levels of contamination by all three types of microbes (yeast, bacteria and mould) which cause microbial contamination of fuel and oil. This enables early detection, before the contamination becomes a problem. The test will also detect dormant spores of microbes, which are often the only indication of contamination in a system.

Reviews

"Our personnel have worked with ECHA on developing the IATA guidelines for testing aviation fuel for microbial contamination and consider the MicrobMonitor2 test kit to be ideally suited to this purpose. Lufthansa Technik has used MM2 since its launch in 2002, and uses the product when servicing aircraft. We have found it to be a very trustworthy test method.”
