Abstract
Satellite control valve technically known as Latchable series redundant valve finds application in both GSLV and PSLV. Generally each satellite employs 16 engines. Each engine of satellite has 2 satellite control valves which are responsible for controlling the movement of satellites in required orbit. So on a total there will be 32 LSRV’s for any satellite which serves for 15-20 years in space. According to the requirement these valves will actuated automatically through control systems and sensors. The Valve is proposed to be used in the 22N and 10N thrusters of GEOSAT propulsion systems for propellant flow control.
