2、 This allowed thrusters to leak. After the third flow, engineer positioned ullage valve (V4) to closed, this caused a pressure spike that ruptured the valve burst disk. The engineer was unaware of the failure, which was found during subsequent testing and data review.Lesson(s) Learned: Inadvertent a
3、ctuation of the ullage valve resulted in a valve burst disk failure and oxidizer vapor release.Recommendation(s): Put indications in the operating instructions of exact operation end point, and require safety buy-off to ensure compliance.Evidence of Recurrence Control Effectiveness: N/ADocuments Rel
