Abstract: Stem-actuated two-way valve for precise, intermittent and repeatable delivery of fluid and/or gaseous substances from high pressure sources. A dual purpose o-ring functions as a valve seat and separates high pressure segments from low pressure segments. The novel valve stem system allows precise delivery of desired liquids and/or gases regardless of valve stem travel within a defined travel length.

Abstract: A two-stage regulator having a piston situated in a first stage for substantially reducing high pressures introduced into the regulator. The reduced pressure is exerted against the second stage that includes a plunger-actuated diaphragm that urges an actuator to open a ball valve at a selected pressure to allow fluid to flow out of the regulator at a desired reduced pressure.
Abstract: A multi-port valve is disclosed having a ball bearing support system for a stator/rotor/valve stem assembly within a valve housing. Slipper seals or alternatively, poppet seals, connect a plurality of apertures situated in the rotor and a plurality of apertures situated in the adjoining stator so that a common central fluid receiving channel of the stator can be connected to a peripheral fluid delivery channel of the stator via a transfer channel in the rotor. The valve assembly provides a durable, virtually leak-proof system for delivery of a variety of fluids through the same delivery channel.
Abstract: A valve for controlling the rate of fluid flow therethrough by rotating a rotor about a spindle having an inlet bore in communication with an eccentrically oriented o-ring set into an eccentrically oriented slot formed in the rotor. The perimeter of the eccentric slot is modified to provide customized unique fluid flow response curves.
