Abstract: The invention relates to an actuator valve 136 of an air operated double diaphragm pump 100. The actuator valve 136 includes a valve housing 138, an inlet 142 for receiving air, a first set of ports 144a,144b for exchanging the air with air chambers 132a,132b, and a second set of ports 146a,146b for exhausting the air received from the air chambers 132a,132b into the atmosphere. The actuator valve 136 further includes a valve piston 148 accommodated within the valve housing 138. The valve piston 148 is configured to reciprocally slide within the valve housing 138 and has a bore 152 at one end. The actuator valve 136 further includes an end plate 156a,156b at each end of the valve housing 138, and has a boss 158 at the corresponding end. The boss 158 and the bore 152 are arranged such that the boss 158 mates with the bore 152.
