Valve with segmented spring guide assembly
Disclosed is a method of applying a biasing force against a piston in a valve as the piston moves along a piston stroke axis in a first direction and an opposing second direction, the piston having a first axial end that is a distal end of the piston, the method including: moving the piston along a piston stroke axis in the first direction and the opposing second direction, wherein while moving the piston along the piston stroke axis: applying a first biasing force in the second direction against the first axial end of the piston from a first spring, and applying a second biasing force in the second direction against the first spring from a second spring.
