A control valve may include a fluid inlet, a plurality of fluid outlets, and a plurality of magnets. One of the plurality of magnets controls fluid flow for each of one of the plurality of fluid outlets. One of the plurality of magnets controls fluid flow for the remaining of the plurality of magnets. When the magnet controlling fluid flow for the remaining of the plurality of magnets is energized, fluid flow is permitted to the remaining of the plurality of magnets. When the remaining of the plurality of magnets are energized, fluid flow is permitted to the respective plurality of fluid outlets.

Regulator/magnetic control valve combination

A quick-connect assembly for connecting a fluid supply line, to a fluid valve, the assembly including a fluid supply line, a spacing element, a valve housing with an inlet and a transverse slot, and a spring clip. The valve housing has a face which includes an insertion end that defines a cavity having a valve housing stop. The spacing element and fluid supply line are adapted to be inserted into the cavity of the valve housing. The spring clip is configured to engage the valve housing and the fluid supply line after the spring clip is inserted into the transverse slot of the valve housing such that the fluid supply line is secured to the valve housing.

Quick-connect assembly for a fluid valve

A dual outlet fluid valve capable of obtaining a closed state operation mode for both outlet ports, a low flow operation mode for either operating port either individually or combined, or a high flow operation mode for either outlet port individually or combined such that at least five distinct operating conditions can be obtained. The fluid valve is not charged with fuel when in a closed position.
