What Is AMS 2750?
TL;DR – Quick Summary
AMS 2750 is a key quality control standard used in the aerospace industry to ensure the accuracy and reliability of temperature sensors, instrumentation, and thermal processing equipment. It governs sensor manufacture, system accuracy tests, and temperature uniformity surveys. The latest revision is AMS 2750F.
Understanding AMS 2750
AMS 2750 is a rigorous aerospace industry standard that defines the requirements and procedures for temperature sensor manufacturing and calibration, as well as thermal processing systems used in aerospace component heat treatment.
Developed to guarantee consistent and precise temperature control, AMS 2750 covers:
- Temperature sensors: Specifications for design, performance, and calibration of sensors such as thermocouples and RTDs used in heat treatment
- Instrumentation: Standards for temperature measuring instruments, controllers, and recorders
- Thermal processing equipment: Guidelines for furnaces, ovens, and other heat treatment machinery
- System accuracy tests (SAT): Procedures to verify the entire temperature measurement system’s accuracy
- Temperature uniformity surveys (TUS): Methods to assess temperature consistency within processing equipment
This standard is essential to ensure parts meet strict aerospace safety and quality requirements.
Revision and Versioning
AMS 2750 is periodically reviewed and updated. Each new revision adds a letter suffix. For example:
- AMS 2750E (previous version)
- AMS 2750F (latest version)
The latest version AMS 2750F incorporates improvements and clarifications to maintain industry best practices.
You can view the full AMS 2750F document through authorised distributors or industry bodies.
Why Is AMS 2750 Important?
- Ensures consistent heat treatment processes for aerospace parts
- Guarantees accuracy and traceability of temperature sensors and instrumentation
- Complies with regulatory and customer requirements in aerospace manufacturing
- Minimises risk of component failure due to improper heat treatment
