Abstract: A system for controlling the inflation and deflation of deicer members for breaking up ice formation thereon. A non-regulated pressure source is connected to a controller valve and an ejector valve, wherein the ejector valve supplies a vacuum source to the controller valve as needed to keep the deicer members deflated. The controller valve is operative upon actuation to direct pressurized fluids to the inflatable deicer members and upon a predetermined build-up of pressure interrupts the flow of fluids from the pressure source while locking the inflatable deicer members in their inflated condition until the controller valve is de-actuated so it places the deicer units in communication with a vacuum.
