RFQ13-SSC-Q-02-25

Amendment No. 1

Page 2 of 2

**[AN ANSWER TO A QUESTION]{.underline}**

RFQ13-SSC-Q-02-25

**High Pressure Check Valves**

Response to question received from a potential vendor:

**Q1. Specification calls for Swing Check Valves. Can a Non-Slam Globe
Style Valve, as shown on the submitted catalog cut sheets, be accepted
as an alternate?**

A1. The literature submitted refers to the valve as a Center Guided
Check Valve and NASA refers to this type of valve as a Poppet Check
Valve. For the current application, NASA requires a Swing Check Valve
and this is what should be quoted to meet the specification
requirements.
