A diagnostic method to identify a leak in a three-way valve for a vehicle brake system having a remote master cylinder which includes the steps of: (1) providing a pedal simulator having pressure medium; (2) de-energizing a secondary three-way valve; (3) retracting a dual acting plunger to the home position to drop the pressure in the boost circuit to zero while also monitoring the pressure at the output of a fluid separator via a secondary master cylinder pressure sensor; (4) determining a rate of pressure reduction at the output of a fluid separator via a secondary master cylinder pressure sensor; and (5) identifying a leak in at least one of a primary three-way valve and the secondary three way valve if the rate of pressure reduction is equal to or higher than a pre-determined rate.

A high-pressure gas cylinder valve for vehicle includes a valve seat having a gas charging runner and a gas supplying runner. A check valve is connected in series onto the gas charging runner, and the check valve and a solenoid valve are connected in series sequentially onto the gas supplying runner in a gas flow direction. A portion of the gas supplying runner located downstream of the solenoid valve is jointly connected to a portion of the gas charging runner adjacent to a gas inlet end and supplies gas to outside through a gas inlet of the gas charging runner when the gas supplying runner supplies gas. The gas cylinder valve further includes a flow-blocking buffer structure connected in series onto the gas supplying runner and located downstream of the solenoid valve and upstream of an intersection of the gas supplying runner and the gas charging runner.

A fluid routing plug for use with a fluid end section. The fluid end section being one of a plurality of fluid end sections making up a fluid end side of a high pressure pump. The fluid routing plug is installed within a horizontal bore formed in a fluid end section and is configured to route fluid throughout the fluid end section.

A water valve has a main body and at least two control valve sets. The main body has an upper cover and a base, the upper cover and the base correspondingly form an enclosed space and are locked with screws. The main body further has an input portion, two controlling portions and a containing chamber. The input portion connects to a water source, each controlling portion has a controlling chamber located in the main body and an outputting space. Each controlling chamber has a through aperture on a side connected to the containing chamber. Each of the control valve sets has a control valve with a knob, the knob has an extending valve tube configured to sleeve onto the controlling chamber of the controlling portion, and the knob is exposed from the main body; each valve tube further has a through hole capable of being aligned with the through aperture.

Disclosed is an air mix valve including: a wall having at least three openings; and at least one airflow-regulating device. The airflow-regulating device includes: at least two shutters placed in the internal volume of the valve, at least one aerodynamic shutter of which is arranged with respect to one of the openings so as to be able to receive an airflow passing through this opening, and a linking mechanism between at least two shutters. Each of the shutters is arranged and guided so as to be able to be caused to move with respect to the wall. At least one airflow-regulating device, named aero-controlled regulation device, is mounted to be freely movable under the effect of aerodynamic energy from airflows passing through the openings.

In accordance with an example, a process control system includes a fluidic line having a longitudinal axis and including a fluidic connection. The fluidic connection has an axis angled relative to the longitudinal axis of the fluidic line. The process control system includes a primary block valve having an inlet port and an outlet port. The inlet port is coupled to the fluidic connection. The process control system includes a monoflange including a male portion forming an inlet port and including an external threaded surface. The monoflange includes an outlet and a flanged interface surrounding the outlet port of the monoflange. The monoflange includes a bleed port. The monoflange includes a bleed valve adapted to control fluid flow from the bleed port and a secondary block valve adapted to control fluid flow from the outlet port. The external threaded surface of the male portion threadably engages the outlet port of primary block valve.
