ABSTRACT:
A control for a poppet valve providing improved load drift control is disclosed. The control includes a valve member operably moveable between a closed position and a range of open positions for allowing flow from an associated poppet control chamber, and a sealing element disposed between a first cavity portion in communication with the control chamber and a second cavity portion for preventing leakage around the valve member therebetween. The sealing element is supported by structure which maintains the sealing element in close alignment with a bore in which the valve member is supported, the sealing element in several embodiments being integrally formed with the bore and in other embodiments being self aligning with the bore.
