SPECIFICATION FOR AEROSPACE GROUND EQUIPMENT PROPELLANT UTILIZATION SUBSYSTEM MODEL PU 136, WS107A-1 WEAPON SYSTEM SM 65 F SERIES, SILO LIFT, MISSILE

Abstract

The Propellant Utilization Subsystem (PUS), composed of 2 sensor stillwell assemblies (fuel and liquid oxygen) and an analog computer, is a propellant management system providing for the simultaneous emptying of both missile propellant tanks. The outlined factory-to-launch sequence requires various serviceability and verification tests at specific locations. To accomplish these tests, Acoustica Associates, Inc. has developed Aerospace Ground Equipment, thereby ensuring that the end result of maintaining its PUS in the first readiness state is achieved.
