Abstract
A solenoid actuated valve assembly has first and second valve members, first and second valve seats, a solenoid coil, a first armature effective when the coil is energized with a positive current to permit displacement of the first valve member from the first valve seat, and a second armature effective when the coil is energized with a negative current to displace the second valve member from the second valve seat. The first valve member engages the first valve seat when the coil is energized with a negative current, and the second valve member engages the second valve seat when the coil is energized with a positive current.
