Spectro Jet-Care KH100 Aircraft Fuel Test Kit with Analysis Included
The Spectro Jet-Care KH100 Aviation Hydraulic Fluid & Fuel Sample Kit helps you prepare and deliver hydraulic fluid and fuel samples for analysis. This aircraft fuel test kit comes standard with prepaid analysis results at the time of purchase.
This aircraft fuel tester includes a 250 ml (8.45 oz) plastic bottle that's suitable for hydraulic fluids (Skydrol 500B-4, Skydrol LD-4, Skydrol 5, MIL-PRF-5606, MIL-PRF-83282, & MIL-PRF-87257) or aircraft fuel, as well as a sample form, instructions, and address labels. The fuel analysis kit comes in a sturdy cardboard tube for easy and safe shipping.
Receive Next-Day Hydraulic Oil Analysis Results Via Email
All samples, excluding fuels, are analyzed, and results are reported via email within 24 hours. Fuel samples have a five-day turnaround due to the incubation time required.
Laboratory Accreditation
Samples are sent only to laboratories holding an ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accreditation.
How Do I Send the Aircraft Fuel Test Kit Samples?
Please ensure that you have tightened the lid of the sample bottle properly and that the bottle is packaged suitably. Please do not use Vermiculite (a highly absorbent and fireproof fine powder) as it can contaminate the sample.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The KH100 kit is a pre-paid aviation sample kit designed to collect fuel or hydraulic fluid from aircraft systems and send it to a certified laboratory for analysis. It is used to check fuel cleanliness, water content, microbial contamination, and other parameters essential to safe aircraft operation. The kit provides all necessary sampling materials – a sample bottle, labels, and instructions – making it ready for routine maintenance or fuel quality verification.
Spectro performs detailed fuel analysis that typically includes water content, microbial contamination (bacteria/fungal spores), and other quality parameters relevant to aviation fuel cleanliness. Their accredited laboratories follow rigorous ISO/IEC 17025 standards, ensuring reliable and accurate results. Results help operators detect contamination or degradation in fuel that could compromise safety or performance.
Periodic fuel sampling helps detect contamination (such as water, microbes, and particulates) that may not be visible during routine preflight inspections. Early detection protects engines and fuel systems from damage, reducing the risk of in-flight malfunctions. Fuel analysis also supports compliance with airworthiness and maintenance standards by providing documented proof of fuel quality.
Yes. The Spectro Jet-Care KH100 kit is designed for universal use and can be employed on any aircraft type to sample fuel or hydraulic fluid. Its flexible use makes it a convenient tool for operators with mixed fleets or varied aircraft types. As long as correct sampling procedures are followed, operators can rely on the KH100 to deliver compliant fluid samples for analysis.
Analysis is conducted by accredited laboratories operated by Spectro Jet-Care (or its associated entities) in the UK, Switzerland, or the USA. These labs hold ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, recognized by major engine and airframe manufacturers worldwide. Their experienced staff and advanced instrumentation provide reliable, detailed analyses that support trend monitoring and predictive maintenance.
Yes. Spectro Jet-Care’s web platform (webECHO™) allows customers to view their analysis results, graphs, and historical data for trend monitoring. This helps operators track fluid quality over time, spot gradual degradation or recurring contamination, and make informed maintenance decisions. webECHO reporting supports better planning and improved system reliability.
Sampling frequency depends on the operator’s maintenance schedule, fuel system usage, and environmental exposures. Regular sampling is recommended after fuel tank filling, long-term storage, suspicious contamination events, or as part of routine maintenance checks. Frequent use of the KH100 kit helps detect contamination or fuel degradation early, avoiding potential engine or system issues.
Yes. Spectro Jet-Care labs are approved by many major engine and airframe manufacturers and comply with stringent accreditation standards. This recognition ensures that results from KH100 kits are accepted in maintenance records and trend-monitoring programs. As such, using Spectro Jet-Care analysis supports regulatory compliance and maintenance best practices.
