Abstract: Body constructions for valves responsive to temperatures of inlet fluid so as to open or close thermostatic valve elements and, respectively, direct fluid flow to heat-exchangers or by-pass them. Flow is diverted from the axis of the inlet to permit ready access to thermostatic valves and/or improve flow to heat-exchangers.
