The Meggitt family of line mounted control valves for aircraft refueller and hydrant service applications are available in 3, 4 and 6-inch sizes.
Special notes:
For proper operation sense line must be 0.375-inch I.D. minimum inlet piping must be straight for 15-inches and of same I.D. as valve. Typical schematics illustrating the use of the line mounted control valves and other accessories are shown in the technical section These schematics are not necessarily complete systems but are intended for reference only. One of the fine features of the Meggitt control valve is its low opening pressure leading to a low pressure loss. The curves shown illustrate these features.
Key Features
- Low-pressure drop – piston style valve produces the lowest pressure drop of any valve.
- Surge control – where required the unique servo design provides closing speeds faster than valves closures on any aircraft.
- Dead man control – fast, positive deadman shut off
- Close control and stability – pressure and flow control extremely stable with narrow band control
- Air-set design – this Meggitt originated feature eliminates need for spring adjustments magnitude of air reference pressure determines fuel control pressure
- Corrosion protection – All aluminium valves with ORES (corrosion resistant steel) trim to provide maximum corrosion resistance. Some sizes available in Ductliron with ORES servos
- Copper free – no copper or copper alloy used in contact with fuel
- Custom mounting – most valves available with choice of inlet and outlet in any combination of Victaulic or flanged connections, flange standard
