ABSTRACT:
A fluid regulator including compression member adapted to engage a fluid conduit, a biasing element operably connected to the compression member and producing a sufficient amount of biasing force to cause the compression member to deform the conduit to a substantially closed state, and a control device for applying a control force to the compression member. The control force may partially overcome the biasing force applied to the compression member and maintain the compression member such that the fluid conduit is maintained in a partially open state.
