Abstract
A fluid flow manifold to deliver pressurized fluid to a series of outlets from a common supply duct has a block body and fluid outlets disposed in linear array along one side of the block. Valves are spread over an opposing side of the body block and connected to the fluid outlet by outlet ducts extending transversely through the block. A supply duct extends longitudinally through the block and delivers fluid to the valves via transfer ducts. The valves are spread in cylindrical array about an axis extending along the linear array of outlets and the outlet ducts converge radially to converge into a linear array defining the fluid outlets such that lengths of all outlet ducts between the valves and the fluid outlets are equal.
