The Woodward LSOV (Liquid Shutoff Valve) is a two-stage valve that provides complete fuel shutoff in 0.09 seconds or less after termination of solenoid current. Designed as a three-way valve, it rapidly shuts off liquid fuel flow while diverting inlet flow to bypass ports, preventing pressure damage to positive displacement fuel systems.
