Solenoid-Operated Refuel Shutoff Valve

Listing ID #3339285

Refuel shutoff valves such as the one above are mounted to a vertical rib and are designed with several features that are required in today’s demanding aerospace needs (i.e. FAR25.981, windmilling & engine blade out). This style of valve is also designed to keep surge pressure low when the valve is commanded to shutoff, thus protecting any downstream equipment. With its low pressure drop and low leakage rate, this valve is an ideal choice when properly selected for the right application.
The refuel shutoff valve is designed to operate in conjunction with a refuel control solenoid or pilot-operated float valve. When the aircraft is connected to a ground refueling source, refuel pressure and flow are routed to the inlet of the valve, allowing the fuel tanks to be filled. When the selected aircraft fuel quantity is reached, the fuel management system will command the refuel-control solenoid or pilot-operated float valve to close, thus commanding the refuel shutoff valve to the closed position.
