Aircraft refuelling
Safe & efficient
For many years we have represented Parker Meggitt aircraft refuelling components such as ISO45 aircraft refuelling couplings, ISO45 refuelling adapters, inline control valves, hydrant couplings and much more.
We also supply sliding vane meters from SATAM and Avery Hardoll, as well as piston and rotary vane meters from Total Control Systems TCS.
Our product range includes fittings such as pneumatic footvalves from Parker Meggitt and Alfons Haar, together with shut-off valves such as ball valves, socket-end gate valves and spring-return CrNi stainless steel ball valves (deadman) in sizes ½″ to 2″.
We supply earthing clamps with ISO46 plug in light and heavy-duty versions.
The heavy-duty version is available with either a ø4.2 mm or ø10 mm cable clamping hole, with black or red handles.

TODO
TODO was originally founded in Töreboda, Sweden and initially manufactured ball valves. But it was the pioneering TODO-MATIC dry-break coupling that would bring the company international recognition – a product that is now used throughout the world across industry.
TODO was acquired by Gardner Denver in 2006 and its headquarters was relocated to Margate in 2012. This premises features a large manufacturing facility and is shared with TODO’s fellow Ingersoll Rand Transport Solutions (IRTS) strategic brand EMCO Wheaton.
The company’s leadership has changed throughout the years but its core approach has remained the same: to provide customers with the highest-quality, precision engineered products available on the market. Commitment to innovation has seen TODO’s market share grow consistently and most customers now recognise its range as the best for handling different fluids and gases.

SATAM
SATAM has a long history in industrial metering, specializing in hydrocarbon liquid metrology since 1921. SATAM provides metering systems for various applications, including those used by armies and within the oil and gas industry. SATAM's expertise extends to designing, manufacturing, marketing, maintaining, and renovating metering systems for the entire hydrocarbon supply chain.
SATAM has developed a complete set of meters and accessories dedicated to aviation applications in order to guarantee the perfect control of jet fuels loaded quantities: meters and accessories for aircraft refuellers and hydrant dispensers from 2” - 8” (20 L/min. to 5500 L/min), metering and additivation for airport fuel farms, and meters calibration systems.
The SATAM Rotary Vane Positive Displacement Meter is a system with freely-moving blades used to measure white petroleum products such as fuels, bio-fuels and refined liquid hydrocarbons. Its simple design using only two pairs of blades and one moving rotor means the SATAM PD meter is exceptionally robust and also generates significant savings on maintenance costs as the meter boasts outstanding metering accuracy and stability.

Avery Hardoll
In 1932, England saw the birth of the innovative brand that would leave an indelible mark on the field of fuel flowmeters: Avery Hardoll. The company's first step was in aviation refueling for the prestigious Royal Air Force (RAF) between the 1930s and 1960s.
Over the years, the brand embraced a new market in petrol stations worldwide. The well known Dry Disconnect Couplings were developed. Fuel dispensing pumps became a recognizable signature while maintaining flowmeters as its core business. Now Parker Meggitt produces the well known Avery Hardoll ISO45 Underwing Refueling Couplings HUMY3000 series and HUMY4000 series.
Avery-Hardoll flowmeters are precision made, positive displacement, liquid measuring instruments. With proven measurement accuracy as good as 0.05%, Avery-Hardoll meters remain unmatched in maintaining the most accurate fluid measurement in the world – in widespread use on aviation refueling vehicles throughout the world.
