Abstract
A valve is provided with one inlet and two outlets with one of the outlets being normally closed by a valve in the form of a film disc carried by a flexible blade. A magnetic pad secured to the blade is attracted by the proximity of an actuator carrier magnetic element to cause the flexing of the blade to open the normally closed outlet and to close the normally open outlet. The actuator may be either thermally or electrically actuated and is suitable for use in a VAV system with thermostatically controlled bellows to override a bleed thermostat to permit warm-up of an overcooled area or to cause a switch over in operation between a heating and cooling mode by connecting the appropriate bleed thermostat so as to control the inflation of the bellows.
