ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for transferring a fluid from a supply container to a desired receptacle. The apparatus includes a conduit having a fluid passage with a valve seat and a flexible containment member. A moveable sealing member is coupled to the flexible containment member and is configured for sealingly engaging the valve seat. An activator is coupled to the sealing member for displacing the sealing member from the valve seat to effect the creation of a reduced fluid pressure in the fluid in the supply container.
