Armstrong Flight Research Center currently has possession of an oxygen regulator functionality tester. This device was used for ensuring that the oxygen regulators for aircraft life support systems are functional and safe for flight and/or other testing. This tester has been in storage for about 25 years, with occasional adjustment to sensors and instruments. Due to the aging structure, there are components and instruments that may be broken, unstable, worn-out, and thus inhibits safe and accurate future testing on other oxygen regulators. This tester is also limited in the types of regulators it may test, limited to ones that only have one line to deliver oxygen in and out of the regulator, to the pilots mask. It has been requested for this tester to be modified to test the X-59 oxygen regulator.
