    Purge Fluid MIL-PRF-38299E.pdf
    MIL-PRF-38299E is a performance specification for purging fluid used to preserve jet aircraft fuel tanks before maintenance. This document, superseding MIL-PRF-38299D, outlines detailed requirements for the fluid's chemical and physical properties, including distillation, specific gravity, sulfur content, freezing point, and electrical conductivity. It references numerous ASTM and federal standards for testing methodologies. The specification also covers material composition, approved antioxidant formulations, and an electrical conductivity additive (Stadis® 450). Toxicity guidelines ensure personnel safety, and the document specifies inspection, sampling, and packaging requirements for procurement by Department of Defense agencies. The fluid's intended use is to enable safe and quick aircraft maintenance in austere conditions.
