| BOV plumbing evolution
I have made an important amendment to the design detailed in the above posts. This may serve some of you who have interest.
I have removed the in-line shut-off from the ADV (was serving insufficient purpose there) and installed it on the Y-block that joins the offboard and wing-inflator. The shut-off isolates the rest of the system from the offboard.
Why? well I see inadequate reason for shutting off the ADV on bottom. Additionally... should a leak spring from anywhere, the shut-off rapidly isolates my bailout (safeguarding it), and preserves wing inflation. If I want to shut-off ADV, I can shut-off offboard and drain the system pressure.

note: this system provides OC access of both on and off board tanks. |
