Abstract: Valve for a pressurized fluid cylinder, comprising a sensor for sensing the position of the control member, said sensor being configured to generate an electric signal indicative of the position or of the fluid flow rate and/or pressure set by a regulating member for regulating flow rate/pressure, the sensor (9) for sensing the position of the control member comprising a conductive circuit having a given electrical resistance, a member for measuring an electric variable of the conductive circuit and a wiper, the conductive circuit and the wiper being movable relative to one another during the movement of the control member with respect to the body of the valve into different configurations in which the wiper modifies the shape and/or area of the conductive circuit measured by the measuring member.

Abstract: Valve comprising a body accommodating a withdrawing circuit comprising a first, upstream end and a second, downstream end intended to be connected to a consumer of the withdrawn gas, the withdrawing circuit comprising a member for regulating the fluid flow rate and/or pressure, the valve comprising a sensor for sensing the position of the control member, said sensor being configured to generate an electric signal indicative of the position of the latter or of the fluid flow rate and/or pressure set by the regulating member, the position sensor comprising at least one detectable element situated on the body of the valve or, respectively, on the control member and at least one measuring element situated on the control member or, respectively, on the body of the valve, at least one of the at least one detectable element and the at least one measuring element being covered with or enclosed in a protective membrane.
