Tender Details
Testing Kit, Petroleum (NSN: 6630-01-558-5109, PN: 57K6311)
End Item: Tactical Petroleum, Oils & Lubrication Distribution Equipment.
Army Contracting Command-Detroit Arsenal (DTA) has a requirement to procure the one-man portable Testing Kit, Petroleum (NSN: 6630-01-558-5109, PN: 57K6311), a critical supply item used by petroleum supply specialists to conduct field-expedient quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) on military fuel supplies prior to issuance.
The kit's primary function is to assess fuel quality at the tactical edge by detecting the presence of contaminants, such as free water and particulates, and by determining temperature and API gravity. Operating as an integral support item for Tactical Petroleum, Oils & Lubrication (POL) Distribution Equipment, the kit is utilized in conjunction with the Petroleum Quality Analysis System-Enhanced (PQAS-E)—the Army-s self-contained mobile fuel testing laboratory—to provide a comprehensive fuel certification capability.
Ultimately, the immediate field-testing capability provided by this portable kit is a mandatory requirement designed to prevent engine failure and fuel system damage in Army ground assets, thereby ensuring the operational readiness of tactical military units.
There is a technical data package (TDP) associated with this procurement. It is distribution statement “D”, which limits access to Department of War (DoW) and U.S. DoW contractors, and is located under the Attachments/Links section of the associated SAM posting.
