A vent valve flow fuse includes a valve cap with a valve cap cavity defined by one or more valve cap interior surfaces. The vent valve flow fuse includes a valve body with a valve body cavity defined by one or more valve body interior surfaces. The vent valve flow fuse includes a poppet configured to at least partially fit within the valve cap cavity and the valve body cavity. The vent valve flow fuse includes a spring configured to fit within the valve body cavity and to generate a resistive force against the poppet. The poppet is in a first position when fluid having a first amount of fluid pressure enters the valve cap cavity from a vent valve and engages the poppet. The poppet is in a second position when fluid having a second amount of fluid pressure enters the valve cap cavity and engages the poppet.

An automatic control valve is provided for generating power based on fluid flow. In one example, the automatic control valve includes a primary passage including a valve seat disposed between an inlet and an outlet and a valve seat. A valve member is moveable between an open position and a closed position depending on the fluid flow. The automatic control valve includes a rotatable valve stem that is affixed at one end to an impeller and operably affixed to a drive shaft of a generator at the other end. As fluid flows to move the valve member to an open position, the impeller with the rotatable shaft and the drive shaft of the generator rotate to produce electric power.

A modular valve assembly can include a core spool module and a plurality of end connection modules. The end connection modules can be configured to be secured to the core spool module at one or more of a core inlet or a core outlet of the core spool module to provide one or more respective, different flow configurations for the modular valve assembly. The core spool module can include a bonnet portion that is integrally formed with the core inlet and the core outlet and a seat ring configured to provide a seal against flow of process fluid through the modular valve assembly.

An electromagnetic positioning device includes an armature member for actuating a positioning partner and movable in an armature space relative to a stationary core (30). The armature member conducts magnetic flux upon energization of a stationary coil (32). The coil has a coil support with a winding and at least one external contactable connector (46) embedded at least in sections in the core and/or surrounded by the core. The core has an end surface (34), which is planar at least in sections, for interacting with the armature member. The core and the coil are embedded in and/or surrounded by a one-piece pot-like and/or cup-like housing (38) made of a material suitable for deep-drawing in such a manner that the core rests on a membrane-like, continuous and closed base section of the housing, the base section realizing a boundary surface of the armature space.

A valve assembly for an active clearance control (ACC) system in a gas turbine engine. The assembly comprises a first valve disc positioned within a first outlet duct, a second valve disc positioned within the second outlet duct, and a shaft coupled to the first and second valve discs such that rotation of the shaft rotates both the first and second valve discs within the first and second outlet ducts, respectively. A flow control member in the second outlet duct surrounds the second valve disc, and is configured to restrict fluid flow passing through the second outlet duct to a greater extent than the fluid flow passing through the first outlet duct for a given degree of rotation of the first and second valve discs. A corresponding ACC system, gas turbine and method is also provided.

A fluid control device, capable of acquiring data related to an internal operation of a device, is provided. The Fluid control device V includes a bonnet part installing sensors for detecting the internal operation of the fluid control device and a valve body containing the bonnet part inside, and the valve body has a recess for containing the bonnet part and a slit, leading a communication cable connected to the sensors to the outside, opening one end on an opposite side of a base where a flow path is formed, and penetrating from an outside to the recess.

A serviceable valve carousel system may include a valve carousel housing having a valve carousel receiver, a valve service port, an integrated first port adapter, and an integrated second port adapter. A rotatable valve carousel may be rotatably disposed within the valve carousel housing. The rotatable valve carousel may include a substantially cylindrical portion, a removable valve lumen, a valve cap receiver, and a removable valve cap having a substantially radiused portion compatible with a substantially radiused portion of the substantially cylindrical portion of the rotatable valve carousel. The rotatable valve carousel is rotatable between a first state that allows fluid communication through a removable valve at least partially disposed within the removable valve lumen and a second state that allows the removable valve cap and removable valve to be removed and replaced via the valve service port without use of tools while maintaining a sewage connection.

A fluid control device, capable of detecting leaks even if the leaks is slight, is provided. The fluid control device includes a valve body in which the flow path is formed, a diaphragm isolating a closed space from the flow path, a bonnet forming the closed space between the diaphragm and providing a penetration hole connected to the closed space and penetrated to be able to vertically move a diaphragm retainer, the diaphragm retainer vertically moving in the penetration hole to press the diaphragm and providing an increased diameter portion not to be removed from the penetration hole, a pressure sensor detecting a pressure inside of the closed space, and an elastic body interposing between the increased diameter portion of the diaphragm retainer and the bonnet inside of the closed space and elastically expanding and deflating between the increased diameter portion of the diaphragm retainer and the bonnet as the diaphragm retainer vertically moves.

Product manifolds for use with portable oxygen concentrators and portable oxygen concentrators including such product manifolds. A product manifold for use with a portable oxygen concentrator includes a first product port, a second product port, an accumulator port, an output port, and a flow path. The flow path operatively coupling each of the first product port, the second product port, the accumulator port, and the output port to one another. The product manifold includes a plurality of control ports. Each of the control ports fluidly coupling the flow path. The product manifold includes a first orifice disposed in a first portion of the flow path; a second orifice disposed in a second portion of the flow path; and a third orifice disposed in a third portion of the flow path. Each of the first orifice, the second orifice, and the third orifice being formed by an electrical forming process and having a thickness of between about 0.0025 inches and about 0.004 inches.

A valve assembly includes a valve body defining a fluid inlet in fluid communication with a fluid outlet. The valve body has an inner body surface defining an interior chamber extending between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A valve element is disposed within the interior chamber and rotatable through a range of positions relative to the outlet providing a high level of precision control of a fluid flow rate through the valve assembly. A valve seat with a seal is positioned around a valve element. The valve seat is configured to self-adjust its inner radial diameter to correspond to the outer radial diameter of the valve element to maintain a portion of an inner seat surface in contact with an outer valve surface of the valve element through the range of positions.
