This page refers you to companies providing engineered and fully integrated fuel transfer systems to meet your specific requirements with respect to pumping capacity, filtration and metering, delivery hose and capped nozzle, various bronze fittings to connect different size hoses together, hoses to tanks/bladders, hoses to pumps-input/output. Generally speaking, for helicopter seismic applications, these fittings are 3 inch down to 2 inch suction hose, 2 inch down to 1 1/2 inch connector to pump, 1 1/2 inch from pump down to 1 inch delivery hose. Adapters may be necessary in some cases to allow for male to female or female to male connections on hose from a source such as a tanker truck. Some major oil companies require the jet fuel hose be wrapped with a coil of clear plastic covered 1/16 or 3/32 inch diameter steel wire, secured to the hose with duct tape (do not use white tie wraps, as they deteriorate rapidly from ultra violet rays), attached at each end of the hose to a steel part of the pump and nozzle. After the hose is wrapped with the wire and secured with the duct tape (taped every meter or so), take the nozzle end of the hose back to the pump and connect the leads of a multimeter to the nozzle and the ground rod at the pump. You should read one ohm or less resistance.
