Please contact us for any inquiry on Meggitt Controls gas turbine valves or OEM overhaul services you may have. Reliability has remained the main criterea for all product developments. Fuel valves operate under the most demanding and extreme conditions. Over the last years Meggitt made a transition in valve actuation technology. The products evolved from ‘brute force’ hydraulically actuated valves to well balanced fully electrically operated control valves. This resulted in more reliable, more accurate, faster actuating and more economic control valves for gas turbines. Based in North Hollywood California, Whittaker Controls became a member of Meggitt Plc group in 1999. A company with a history starting in aviation and aerospace that has further developed this knowledge for the industrial gas turbine industry worldwide. (more)įor years Whittaker Controls was known as a well respected engineering company of gas turbine air flow control and fuel control valves.

Now to find a 12v 1/8 in barbed fuel capable valve.Welcome to Meggitt Valves & Whittaker Controls If I find a candidate, its a 15 minute job tops. Not much more involved than splicing in a fuel filter. Just a 10 dollar, inline, barbed solenoid valve wired to ignition. I only have one petcock with no crossover at tank. just take it out of the loop (in the vanishingly small instance of future failure). Yes, just using barbed fittings to the existing shutoff left on. I'd suggest that whatever you do, leave things so that the next owner can make an easy decision to revert back to stock.
A switch mounted somewhere wired and fused to the battery.or through the ignition? What's the option for reverting if this fails when you're on the road somewhere? Really seems like a lot of work as opposed to just finally train yourself to turn off and then turn on the petcock as it was designed? But your ride. Are you going to give up on the "reserve" nature of the petcocks with the different length straws inside the tank? The tank stub outlets are metric, so you'll need an adapter for that.
