In addition to the requirements for proper markingand colour-coding, there is a need throughout theaviation industry, in general, for uniformity in productlabels.

It isintended to apply to equipment that is in continuous usefor a single grade of aviation fuel, e.g.:
- Airport depots.
- Airport fuel hydrant systems.
- Airport fuelling vehicles.
- Dedicated grade aviation fuel storage tanks andpiping within terminals.
- Dedicated grade aviation fuel loading facilities atrefineries, terminals or airports, etc.It is not intended to apply to equipment that is not incontinuous aviation fuel use, e.g.:
- Refinery storage tanks and associated piping.
- Multi-product pipelines.
- Non-dedicated loading facilities, etc.
For further information on labelling systems forequipment not in aviation use see the latest edition ofeither API RP 1637 Using the API color-symbol systemto mark equipment and vehicles for productidentification at service stations and distributionterminals, or IP Code of practice for a productidentification system for petroleum products.
