Aircraft Engine Oil...

An oil pressure sensor is a device used to measure the oil pressure on an engine. The term oil pressure sensor is often used to denote  at least two different and distinct types of sensor - an oil pressure switch and and oil pressure sender.

An oil pressure switch is an egine protection device. It is a mechanical device that has a switch inside. The oil pressure switch may be 1, 2, or 3 insulated terminals (pins). Traditionally most oil switches for protection close when they activate, to show low oil pressure. 

An oil pressure sender is a device that senses the oil pressure of an engine and transmits it to the engine or machine controller. It is used as a generator protection device, to display the oil pressure to a user or for logging and diagnostic purposes. Unlike an oil pressure switch, it can display a range of readings.

Oil pressure sensors are used aircrafts and offered either as parts from the respective OEMs or as replacement parts from third parties. They are alternatively termed as HOBBS switches.

Please refer to the manufacturer Illustrated Part Cataloge (IPC) or the technical specifications of offered sensiors to select the right sensor for your application.

ARKWIN Hydraulic Engine...

ARKWIN INDUSTRIES has been designing and manufacturing engine actuators for over 60 years for operation with fuel, engine oil and hydraulic oil pressurization. Their actuators are used on numerous civil, military, and industrial applications to provide actuation force to direct engine control components. They differ from conventional hydraulic actuators, a major difference being the incorporation of the fire resistance features necessary to meet engine safety requirements. Engine actuators are frequently exposed to elevated temperature during normal operation. If extended periods of flame resistance are required, protective coatings can be applied to the actuator housings including the use of intumescence or ablative coatings. Where temperature permits, ARKWIN uses aluminum alloys. For higher operating  temperatures or pressure requirements exceeding the allowables of aluminum alloy, stainless PH steel alloys or titanium alloys can be provided. Two stage sealing is common for both static and dynamic seals. Specifically selected seal compounds allow zero external leakage, long durability life, high temperature resistance, while providing protection in fire. 

ARKWIN’s  engine actuators feature a high side load tolerance to ensure long piston life, high resistant wear plating, high reliability/low maintenance and fire resistance. Their key design characteristics include:

• Fuel and petroleum based operating fluids

• Operating pressures up to 4,000 psig

• Position feedback of the actuators is provided by integral or externally mounted LVDT’s.

• Multiple mounting options

• Servo valve applications (Control of actuators through external pressurization valving or through an integral electro hydraulic servo valve).

• Master/Slave configurations

ARKWIN’s  engine actuators are offered for different platforms including:

CFM International CFM56-2/-3, CFM56-5/-7

General Electric CF34-3, CF34-8C/E, CF6, F110, F404,  F414, LM2500, LM6000, TF34

ARKWIN EXCHANGE PROGRAM: ARKWIN’s commercial and industrial gas turbine engine actuator exchange program was developed for the CFM56-5/7, CF6-80C2, CF6-80E1, CF34-8C/E, LM2500, and LM6000 engines.  The program provides operators the reliability of OEM NEW products at competitive prices.

NEWTON SPRL Fuel Selector...

NEWTON CONSULTING offers a range of SPRL branded fuel valves featuring distinct features that make them better than the rest. Ceramic disks have no soft moving/rubbing seals to wear out, unlike other valves but also give an 'indefinite' life with a very smooth light action. The lift and turn selector of SPRL valves is instinctive, secure, and easier to use than the complex 'lift button' type. The locking detents avoid accidental movements. The fixings match most installations, and the internal ports prevent cross feeds, unless 'selected to 'Both'. Their lightweight alloy construction is anodized for protection while the Viton O-ring seals are suitable for all current fuels. Male AN fittings enable plumbing straight into the aeroplane system with no extra fittings required.

The SPRL Valves, as designed, have a very nice 'feel' and are logical in use, however, there is a requirement in FAR 23 whereby the fuel valve must be turned from OFF to an ON selection simply by turning it, i.e. it should not have to be lifted up, pushed down etc, and it should also not be possible to turn it from an ON position to OFF without a dent.

Fittings must be purchased separately. Please refer to the separate NEWTON fittings product presentation.

Pressure Refuel Caps SKU:...

Filler opening caps are parts basically circular in shape, designed to cover or seal the filler-neck or inlet opening of a fuel tank, radiator, oil reservoir, liquid storage tank or the like. They are either permanently attached or provided with a means of removal and replacement. 

Pressure refuel caps are used to lock, seal, and vent the pressure refuel port for an aircraft fuel tank. Pressure refueling allows for single point refueling on larger aircraft and can be used with all aircraft fuels. To fuel the aircraft, the caps are manually actuated by pressing down on the handle, which will vent and unlock the cap for removal by twisting. The cap remains attached to the aircraft by a lanyard. Once refueling is complete, the cap is inserted back onto the adapter and twisted until locked into place, which effectively reseals the pressure refuel port.

Pressure refuel caps are offered by different manufacturers such as Parker Aerospace, Eaton Coporation and others. They are designed in accordance with military specification MIL-C-8605B (for technical requirements) and MS29526-2(for envelope requirements).

Those from Parker Aerospace are 4.5 inches diameter, with an indexing feature and they fit into a 2.5-inch pressure refuel adapter per military specification MS24484. Their main features include an aluminum base and handle, a fluorosilicone O-ring seal, and antisparking brass chain lanyard (per industry standard RR-C-271) with a plastic tubing cover and corrosion resistant steel hooks.  Lanyards can also be fabricated with corrosion-resistant steel or flexible plastic and fuel resistant tubing. Optional features are also available such as key lock, ventilation, hinge, visual fluid level indicator, dust cover easy-lift handle and contoured adapter.

RAPCO OEM Replacement...

Modern reciprocating-engine aircraft (especially large and high-performance ones) use electrically operated auxiliary fuel  boost and transfer pumps  to keep fuel moving toward the aircraft engine or move fuel between tanks to balance aircraft weight. Centrifugal boost pumps,  electric motor driven,  are the most common type and  are used to supply,back up the engine-driven fuel pump or transfer fuel between tanks if the aircraft is so designed. They are  most frequently  submerged in the fuel tank or located just outside of the bottom of the tank with the inlet of the pump extending into the tank. Cartridge/canister or in-tank mounted pumps supply fuel to the aircraft engine while reverse flow through the pump is prevented by check valves. The cartridge/canister design allows removal of the pump cartridge without draining the fuel tank. If the pump is mounted outside the tank, a pump removal valve is typically installed so the pump can be removed without draining the fuel tank.

The RAPCO FAA-PMA approved pumps are offered as direct replacements of the respective pumps by OEMs  such as PARKER AIRBORNE or DUKES (please refer to their separate product presentations). The letters " RA" in the beginning of the RAPCO part number are used to denote the correlation of RAPCO part number to the OEM part number. They incorporate modern design, materials, and manufacturing processes to provide high quality and performance fuel pumps at competitive prices. 

These pumps can be furnished  as NEW or OVERHAUL EXCHANGE, namely new or overhauled pumps in exchange of existing customer owned units (cores). In all exchange cases,  the  full selling price of the ordered unit is charged and the core credit is refunded or credited towards future orders with us when our co-operating supplier verifies that the unit is in a reasonable serviceable condition. In the case of overhauled pumps, these are overhauled in accordance with FAA-approved process specification and come with a FAA Form 8130-3.
