Claim:
1. A lockout valve assembly of an implantable penile prosthetic, the lockout valve assembly comprising: a body attachable between a reservoir and a pump of the implantable penile prosthetic; and a lockout valve positioned in an inlet flow path between the reservoir and the pump and including: wherein the lockout valve is configured such that contact between a pump face of the lockout flange and a wall of the body prevents pressurized liquid from flowing from the reservoir to the pump, and such that low pressure downstream of the lockout valve created by suction from the pump draws the inlet flange counterclockwise as the core rotates relative to the seat, and wherein rotation of the core and the inlet flange operates to open a gate that allows liquid to flow from the reservoir to the pump.
