HAZCHEM Sign – AVGAS 100LL F-18 Sign

Breakdown of key elements of the AVGAS 100LL F-18 Sign – 

• AVGAS 100LL: This refers to a specific type of aviation gasoline. “100LL” stands for:
  • 100: The octane rating of the fuel, which indicates its resistance to engine knocking (pre-detonation).
  • LL (Low Lead): Refers to the lower levels of lead in the fuel compared to earlier formulations of aviation gasoline. Although it still contains lead, it is much lower than in other grades of AVGAS, like 100/130.

  AVGAS 100LL is commonly used in piston-engine aircraft.

• F-18: This likely refers to a specific fuel storage or distribution code or location within a facility. In some cases, it may be related to military designations, though for civilian use, it typically points to the exact location or identification of the fuel type in a multi-fuel environment.

Purpose:

• Safety and Compliance: The sign ensures that personnel working in aircraft refueling know the exact type of fuel available at the station. Using the wrong type of fuel in an aircraft can lead to engine failure and safety risks.
• Operational Efficiency: It helps ground crews and pilots quickly identify the correct fuel for their aircraft, ensuring smooth and efficient refueling operations.
• Environmental and Health Safety: Leaded fuels like AVGAS require special handling due to their potential environmental and health hazards, making signage crucial in maintaining safe operational practices.
