This document specifies the technical requirements to minimise the hazards listed in Clause 4 which can arise during the commissioning, operation and maintenance of AFE when carried out in accordance with the specifications given by the manufacturer or his authorised representative. It also takes into account some performance requirements recognised as essential by authorities, aircraft and ground support equipment (GSE) manufacturers as well as airlines, airports and fuelling companies.
This document applies to all types of aircraft fuelling equipment:
- aircraft refuellers;
- hydrant dispensers;
- defuellers;
- hydrant pit servicing vehicles;
- stationary dispensing units,
intended to service aircraft with aviation fuels and to be operated on airfields, heliports and other aircraft refuelling re-lated areas such as maintenance bases.
NOTE 1 In general, the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) is not applicable to AFE as they are not deemed to be used on public roads. However, certain requirements have been considered when developing this standard.
The use of AFE on public roads is not intended with the following exceptions:
- transportation of fuel from tank farms to refuelling areas;
- maintenance purposes with empty cargo tanks.
NOTE 2 This may include the need of local traffic derogation (see Clause 0 of EN 1915 1:2001 — negotiation).
The intended functions of AFE are:
- loading fuel from the tank farm and/or a hydrant system to the AFE;
- storage and transportation of fuel;
- fuelling from the AFE to the aircraft;
- filtration of the fuel;
- metering the fuel for a transfer of custody;
- defuelling the aircraft to the AFE;

The document SIST EN 12312-5:2005+A1:2009 outlines the technical requirements for aircraft ground support equipment (GSE) specifically relating to aircraft fuelling equipment (AFE). This standard is crucial for minimizing the hazards associated with the commissioning, operation, and maintenance of AFE, ensuring safety and efficiency in all operations involving aircraft fuelling. One of the primary strengths of this standard is its comprehensive approach to addressing potential hazards during the operational lifecycle of AFE. It incorporates essential performance requirements endorsed by authorities, GSE manufacturers, airlines, and airports, reinforcing its relevance and applicability in the field. The inclusion of various types of aircraft fuelling equipment-such as aircraft refuellers, hydrant dispensers, defuellers, and stationary dispensing units-demonstrates the standard’s wide scope and its capability to cover all operational contexts where aviation fuels are involved. The document also highlights the intended functions of AFE, including fuel loading, storage, transportation, filtration, and metering, which further emphasizes its relevance in facilitating streamlined airport operations. Ensuring the retention of high safety standards while managing aviation fuels is invaluable, as it mitigates the risks associated with fuel handling and transfers. Moreover, while the standard acknowledges that the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) is generally not applicable to AFE, it thoughtfully considers relevant requirements. This tailored consideration ensures that the standard addresses the unique operational environments in which AFE operates, particularly in airfield and heliport settings. In summary, SIST EN 12312-5:2005+A1:2009 is a critical standard for aircraft fuelling equipment, providing robust guidelines that ensure the safety, performance, and efficiency of GSE operations in the aviation sector. Its meticulous attention to hazards, operational requirements, and compliance with recognized performance metrics establishes it as a fundamental resource for all stakeholders in the field.
標準「EN 12312-5:2005+A1:2009」は、航空機の地上支援機器に関する特定の要件を規定しており、その中でも特に航空機給油装置に焦点を当てています。この文書は、製造者またはその認可された代表者によって示された仕様に従って、AFE（航空機給油装置）の commissioning（運用開始）、運用、および保守の際に生じる危険を最小限に抑えるための技術的要件を詳述しています。 この標準の強みは、その包括的なアプローチにあります。航空機給油装置のすべてのタイプ、具体的には航空機給油車、ハイドラントディスペンサー、給油解除装置、ハイドラントピットサービス車両、固定式ディスペンシングユニットに適用されることが明記されており、航空機に対する航空燃料の提供を目的としています。また、空港やヘリポート、さらにはパイロット基地などの航空機給油関連エリアでの運用を考慮しているため、実際の現場でのニーズに応えた内容となっています。 さらに、この文書は、航空機や地上支援機器（GSE）メーカー、航空会社、空港、給油会社が必要とする性能要件も考慮しています。この点において、標準は業界の様々な関係者からの意見を反映しており、実用性が高く、関連性があると言えます。 文書内での特記には、航空機給油装置が公共の道路で使用されないことが強調されていますが、特定の条件下での使用（燃料の輸送やメンテナンス目的）についての要件も適用されています。このような柔軟さは、業界の実態に即した運用を可能にし、標準の適用範囲を広げています。 総じて、EN 12312-5:2005+A1:2009は、航空機給油装置に関する技術要件を体系的に整理したものであり、業界関係者が安全かつ効率的に業務を行うための重要な指針となるでしょう。
