In a thermal fluid system, a control valve includes a flow valve and a solenoid pilot valve. The flow valve has an inlet and an outlet; a control chamber for receiving a pilot pressure; and a valve member operable by the pilot pressure to selectively open and close a fluid path from the inlet to the outlet. The pilot pressure acts in a closing direction of the flow valve. The pilot valve provides the pilot pressure to the control chamber and is a 3/2 way valve with a first port in fluid communication with the control chamber, a second port to be connected to a pressure source, and a third port. The pilot valve has a first position connecting the first port with the second port and a second position connecting the first port with the third port.

A flush valve includes a valve housing defining a fluid passageway between a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The fluid passageway includes a diaphragm valve seat disposed between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The flush valve additionally includes a diaphragm assembly including a diaphragm and a disc. The diaphragm includes a primary opening and a bypass opening. The primary opening receives the disc therein and the bypass opening allowing water under pressure supplied to the fluid inlet to pass from a fluid inlet side of the diaphragm into a chamber in the fluid passageway. The flush valve additionally includes a relief valve configured to selectively control fluid flow from the chamber to the fluid outlet. The relief valve comprises a stationary valve element and a rotatable valve element each having at least one opening and being rotationally positionable relative to one another to regulate fluid flow.

A valve for a vacuum apparatus includes a first housing element and a second housing element wherein an outer chamber is defined by the first housing element and the second housing element. The first housing element has a first opening and the second housing element has a second opening in fluid communication with the first opening via the outer chamber. An inner chamber is defined by the first housing element and the second housing element wherein a membrane is disposed in the inner chamber. A sealing element is connected to the membrane and is moveable from a first position to a second position wherein in the first position the sealing element closes the first opening in a leak-tight manner and in the second position the sealing element opens the first opening to allow a gaseous medium to flow through the valve.

This document discloses a valve comprising a main valve closure body, arranged on a low pressure side of the valve and moveable to open towards the low pressure side, a control body, fixedly connected to the main valve closure body, such that a position of the main valve closure body is fixed relative to a position of the control body, a control chamber, partially defined by the control body, whereby a volume of the control chamber is variable in relation to the position of the control body, and a control fluid connector for controlling a pressure in the control chamber. The document also discloses use of the valve in a separator for separating dust and debris from an airflow, a separator comprising such a valve and a method of operating a separator.

A plunger-type diaphragm valve is disposed in an accommodation trough of a flush device. The accommodation trough communicates with an inlet passage and an outlet passage. The valve includes a control unit. One end of the control unit is provided with a diaphragm member and an engaging member, and another end leans against the outlet passage to block the inlet passage and the outlet passage. An outer wall of the diaphragm member is fixed to the accommodation trough. The diaphragm member has a curved portion. When the valve is actuated, the curved portion is deformed by water pressure to bring the control unit to move away from the inlet passage for the inlet passage to communicate with the outlet passage. The stressed area of the diaphragm member is small and the deformation is less, so the diaphragm member won't wear. The valve is durable and has a long life.

A Manual Reset hydraulic valve latch, capable of maintaining a hydraulically controlled valve in an open state after the valve has been opened by an activating device, regardless of the state of the activating device, until the latch is reset. The invention provides simplicity of operation, high resistance to false tripping and accidental shutoff. The invention further provides a fast fill of the hydraulic valve control chamber by reducing flow restriction into the valve control mechanism during reset of the latch.

A membrane valve for controlling flow and pressure relief, has a format following the anatomy and the action mechanism of a sphincter, in order not to have restriction points to the fluid flow. The valve includes a body provided with terminal sections provided with ends and, internally, a folded membrane which opens and closes according to the flow and/or pressure exerted therein, directly or indirectly, locally or remotely.
