Abstract: A balanced dual poppet valve for a fluid control device having a housing removable seats. Each valve seat has a cylindrical body with a flange thereon which engages a flexible member made of laminated graphite and retained in the housing to form a seal between the cylindrical body and housing while at the same time creating a defined radial clearance therebetween. A locking ring connected to the housing holds the cylindrical body in the housing and prevents the seats from rotating within the housing. The flexible member positions the cylindrical body within the radial clearance to maintain the alignment of conical seating surfaces on the cylindrical body with each seat with dimensional changes in the housing as a result of temperature changes to assure that flow communication from the entrance port to the outlet port terminates when an actuator moves the cylindrical body to an inoperative position.
