JASC
Fuel Metering Valve Assembly Description
The FMVA incorporates an electro-hydraulic
4-way fuel-metering servo, a pressure compensating By-Pass Valve,
Pilot Operated Solenoid and Shut-off Valve into a single integrated
package.
The heart of the FMVA is the 1st stage electro-hydraulic servo.
This servo is based upon JASC’s 3-way, clevis type, fuel-metering
servo that is currently being used in a variety of applications.
Some of the other applications for this servo valve include: direct
metered flow and pressure compensated flow control for turbine engine
fuel systems and actuator position control.
Benefits
and Features
The highly accurate fuel delivery schedule
is achieved through the incorporation of a
mechanical feedback spring and a precisely shaped metering port
contour. The low cost
feedback spring is used to provide position error, in lieu of an
expensive LVDT. This also
provides additional savings in weight, system integration and unit
volume. The port contour provides an equal percentage flow error
throughout the unit’s operating range.
