2. GENERAL INFORMATION

2.1 Product Quality Surveillance: FSII degrades in the presence of humidity therefore quality surveillance is important to ensure that the product integrity is maintained. Tanks containing FSII shall have desiccators or a nitrogen blanket to minimize product degradation over time. FSII storage is considered dormant stock if the product is not being refreshed at an amount 2/3 the capacity of each individual storage tank every three months. At three months of age, FSII in storage tanks shall be evaluated for specification compliance in accordance with the most recent revision of MIL-DTL-85470, and every three months thereafter. The properties measured shall be workmanship, water, color, distillation, and density. At nine months of age the product shall be tested for workmanship, total acid number, pH, distillation, relative density, water, and ethylene glycol. If any of these properties do not meet specification a full specification test panel shall be completed to determine if any other properties are out of specification. Copies of all test results shall be forwarded to DLA Energy Quality (DLAEnergyQualityTechnical@dla.mil).
