Abstract: A control valve includes a valve body with a plurality of ports and a plurality of annular flow passages. At least one valve element such as a piston which includes a plurality of annular flow passages and a longitudinal flow passage is selectively movable within a bore within the valve body through operation of a valve controller. The valve controller includes a motor that is selectively operative to control the position of the at least one valve element to enable liquid flow through a plurality of flow paths. The valve may be utilized in system arrangements which oxidize and filter out contaminants in liquids such as water.

Abstract: A liquid control valve (320) that is utilized in a liquid treatment system includes a valve body (322). The valve body includes a plurality of liquid ports (A, B, C D, E, F) and a plurality of annular flow cavities. A piston (328) which includes at least one annular flow passage and a longitudinal flow passage, is selectively movable within a bore (324) within the valve body responsive to operation of at least one motor. The piston is selectively axially positionable within the bore to enable liquid flow through a plurality of flow paths. The exemplary valve enables treatment material housed in an associated liquid treatment tank to undergo a regeneration cycle as a result of liquid flow though the valve, while the valve outlet port that is operable in a valve service condition to deliver treated liquid, is continuously not in fluid flow connection with any other port the valve during the regeneration cycle.

Abstract: A control valve (10) includes a valve body with a plurality of ports (A, B, C, D, E, F) and a plurality of annular flow passages (53, 55, 57). A piston (34) which includes a plurality of annular flow passages and a longitudinal flow passage is selectively movable within a bore (32) within the valve body through operation of a valve controller (70). The valve controller is selectively operative to control the position of the piston so as to enable liquid flow through a plurality of flow paths. The valve controller further includes a installable and removable valve controller housing (74) which is releasably engageable with a valve base (72). The valve may include a changeable piston and changeable injector and plug components to adapt the valve to different flow and fluid mixing requirements.
