Description

NASA/SSC plans to issue a Request for Offer (RFO) for the design, fabrication, inspection, testing, cleaning, packaging and delivery to Stennis Space Center, Stennis Mississippi, E3 Test Complex, twenty (20), hydrogen peroxide, and JP-8 Globe Valves in accordance with specification No. 110GM-GMC3, Rev.0. The hydrogen peroxide valves shall be top entry y-pattern or straight globe valves with an extended body designed for cryogenic (-320 degrees F) service. The operating temperature range for the hydrogen peroxide valves will be from 0 to 120 degrees F; however, the valves may be reconfigured for LOX service (by replacing the stem/plug assembly) at a later date. The JP-8 valves shall be top entry cage design or split body so that the Cv of the valve may be changed by changing the stem/plug and the seat ring. The JP-8 valves may utilize a metal-to-metal or soft seat design.
