ABSTRACT:
An emission control valve assembly has an internal main flow passage through a valve body between a first port and a second port, an electric actuator, and a valve operated by an armature of the actuator to selectively open and close the passage. A force-balancing mechanism applies to the valve a force that opposes force created by pressure differential between the first and second ports. An annular filter cartridge is disposed within the valve body to trap particulate material in flow entering through the first port so that the trapped material does not reach the valve and its seat.
