ABSTRACT:
An actuated air valve includes a valve body in line with a flow passage for admitting a flow of fluid. A valve member is pivotally mounted about the centerline of the valve body and is pivoted between high flow and low flow positions. A diaphragm and linkage is in mechanical connection to the valve member. A pressure tap from the flow of fluid provides an impulse to the diaphragm which displaces the linkage, thus varying the position of the valve member. A three-way solenoid valve is used to selectively admit the impulse to the diaphragm, thus governing the displacement of the linkage, and thereby varying the position of the valve member.
