Abstract: A fluid application system includes a manifold defining an internal passageway, and a plurality of nozzle assemblies connected in fluid communication with the internal passageway. Each nozzle assembly of the plurality of nozzle assemblies includes a body defining a fluid passage, an inlet connected to the manifold for receiving fluid flow into the fluid passage, a spray outlet for discharging fluid from the fluid passage, an electrically actuated valve fluidly connected between the inlet and the spray outlet, and a pressure dampener connected in fluid communication with the fluid passage between the inlet and the spray outlet. The electrically actuated valve is configured to control fluid flow through the fluid passage, and the pressure dampener is configured to dampen fluctuations in fluid pressure within the fluid passage.

Abstract: A three-way valve assembly includes a housing assembly and a diaphragm drip check. The housing assembly defines an inlet, a return outlet, a dispensing outlet, a return flow path extending from the inlet to the return outlet, and a dispensing flow path extending from the inlet to the dispensing outlet. The diaphragm drip check includes a plunger and a diaphragm retained within a sensing chamber, at least one magnet coupled to the plunger and generating a magnetic field, and a sensing assembly. The plunger is operatively coupled to the diaphragm such that deflection of the diaphragm causes corresponding displacement of the plunger. The sensing assembly includes a printed circuit board and at least one sensor, the printed circuit board positioned on the housing assembly such that the at least one sensor is affected by the at least one magnet as the plunger is displaced within the sensing chamber.

Abstract: A valve assembly includes a housing assembly defining a valve seat, an inlet, an outlet, a flow path, and an aperture located between the inlet and the valve seat. The housing assembly includes a valve body and a valve cap. A traveler is positioned within a first chamber of the valve body and is movable between a first position, in which it engages the valve seat, and a second, displaced position. The traveler includes a plunger that is received within the aperture and slides within the aperture as the traveler moves between the first position and the second position, the plunger defining at least one slot that permits fluid flow therethrough when the traveler is displaced from the valve seat.
