Fuel/hydraulic transfer valve improves reliability of Atlas space launch vehicleThe Atlas fuel hydraulic transfer valve design is described. The design satisfies primary goals such as fuel and oil isolation before launch in order to use existing ground support and airborne hardware and procedures. The valve operates only after the vehicle has been committed to launch. Hydraulic system function is maintained if the valve fails to function. Valve operation is mechanical and interfaces only with the propulsion system.
