Eaton Boom nozzle
Mounted on the end of a tankerÕs telescoping boom, EatonÕs boom nozzle facilitates fuel flow to an aircraftÕs receiver receptacle. Interfacing voice coils in the nozzle and receptacle enable voice communication between the tanker and receiver. An electrically operated independent disconnect system allows the tanker to release latches on the boom nozzle to initiate a disconnect if receptacle latches fail to release.
