Abstract: A control for draining water accumulated in a fuel tank, without loss of fuel or ingestion of water into an associate fuel system, is responsive to a flotation device weighted to float at the water-fuel interface. The flotation device is connected by a lever to turn a rotor in a pressurized chamber thereby selectively connecting pressure or exhaust to respective actuation control ports for a drain valve and fuel valve.

Abstract: An extrusion die assembly for a pelletizing apparatus including a die body, a die insert carried by the die body, the die insert having a die plate with a die plate face and a die plate back surface, there being a plurality of extrusion ports through the die plate face extending from the face to the back surface, the die insert further having a plurality of extrusion port formations such as tubes projecting from the die plate back surface and defining a plurality of extrusion passageways, each of said extrusion ports being in register with a respective one of said passageways, the tubes and the die plate comprising a monolithic structure formed from a unitary piece of material, and a heating jacket formed at least partially by the die body, at least a portion of the tubes being received in the heating jacket.

Abstract: An extrusion die plate and method of making same, the die plate having a die plate body with a die plate face, and a plurality of extrusion passageways in the die plate body terminating generally at the die plate face.
