Abstract
A high pressure fluid valve includes a tubular portion with a valve seat on its end and a closure element for engaging the valve seat. A piston carries either the tubular portion or the closure element as a movable valve member, with the other being fixed. A first fluid chamber is provided adjacent the valve seat and a second fluid chamber is spaced therefrom adjacent the other end of the movable valve member. When the movable valve member is actuated, one of the fluid chambers increases in volume by the same amount that the other decreases in volume, thereby maintaining the internal volume of the valve constant.
