A flow control assembly is provided with a cartridge which includes a body sized and shaped so as to be received in a housing of fluid handling apparatus, such as duplex strainers and diverter valves. The body has a first chamber and a second chamber adjacent to the first chamber. The first chamber includes a first fluid inlet and first and second fluid outlets, while the second chamber includes second and third fluid inlets and a third fluid outlet. A first valve is movably positioned in the first chamber. The first valve is movable between a first position, in which fluid passes from the first fluid inlet to the first fluid outlet, and a second position, in which fluid passes from the first fluid inlet to the second fluid outlet. A second valve is also movably positioned in the second chamber. The second valve is movable between a third position, in which fluid passes from the second fluid inlet to the third fluid outlet, and a fourth position, in which fluid passes from the third fluid inlet to the third fluid outlet. A moving mechanism is provided for conjointly moving the first and second valves such that the first valve is in the first position when the second valve is in the third position and such that the first valve is in the second position when the second valve is in the fourth position.
