A valve for controlling flow of air comprising in combination a valve housing having a chamber, inlet and outlet air flow paths communicating with the chamber adjacent oppositely facing sides thereof, and a valve seat arranged in one of the flow paths; a valve sleeve supported for rotation within the chamber and having a through opening provided with opposite ends arranged for placing the inlet and outlet air flow paths in flow communication; and a valve member having sealing and operating ends, the sealing end being arranged within one of the flow paths for removable engagement with the valve seat for selectively blocking and unblocking the flow of air through one of the flow paths, the operating end extending into the chamber from one of the flow paths and through one of the opposite ends for receipt within the through opening of the valve sleeve. An operator is supported by the valve sleeve for engagement with the operating end of the valve member within the through opening and is movable relative to the valve sleeve to effect movement of the valve member relative to the valve housing and the valve sleeve for removably engaging the sealing end with the valve seat to selectively block and unblock flow of air through one of the flow paths.
