Pressure Management Assembly (PMA)

The Pressure Management Assembly (PMA) is a single fault tolerant, parallel redundant branch regulation assembly that stabilizes and controls xenon inlet pressure to a downstream, low pressure flow control device. Regulation is mechanical with no electrical input required for operation. Flow isolation is provided by latch valves, and initially with normally closed pyro valves. High and low pressure transducers are incorporated for telemetry feedback. The complete welded assembly is incorporated on a flight plate with component brackets.
