A valve for a fuel cell system includes a valve housing having a valve seat formed therein. The valve seat includes an orifice formed therein to permit a fluid to flow through the valve housing. A movable member is disposed in the valve housing and is movable between an open position and a closed position. The movable member includes a first end having an elongate portion and a generally conical shaped base. At least a portion of the base is disposed in the orifice of the valve seat when the movable member is in the closed position to militate against a formation of ice across the orifice of the valve seat.
