Description
NASA/GRC plans to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP)] for the development of a prototype cryogenic propellant isolation valve that provides approximately 36 lbm/sec of liquid oxygen at approximately 15 psid (or 12 lbm/sec liquid methane) for long duration in-space operation. This valve should be hermetically sealed, operate on 28 VDC, provide liquid lock back relief, and operate at approximately 500 psia MAWP. The valve should be able to operate in vacuum with insulation on the valve and motor (motor at cryogenic temperatures), and minimize heat leak into the valve from the mounting fixture. It is expected that the resultant contract will have a value between $1,5M and $2.0M.
