Abstract
In a formation testing apparatus lowered into a well to conduct various tests, an internal hydraulic powered system operates various components. In the present disclosure, an improved valve having metal seats overlayed with an elastomeric material cooperates with valve elements to thereby enhance low power for valve operations. The valve element and mating valve seat cooperate on valve opening or closing to reduce valve power requirements and the forces needed for operation.
