Abstract
A pressurization control device ( ) for controlling positive pressurization of an electronic equipment enclosure, such as, for example, a telecommunications equipment enclosure ( or ), wherein the device ( ) combines and integrates a number of valves or other control components and functions into a single, common valve body ( ) or manifold providing a single, shared penetration point ( ) into the enclosure ( or ), thereby advantageously minimizing the number of penetrations into and potential leakage points from the enclosure ( or ). The valves or other control components may be substantially conventional and may include, for example, a cable air tube connection fitting ( ); a pressure cutoff valve ( ); a pressure relief valve ( ); and a static pressure valve or air stem ( ); an express fitting ( ); and an on/off valve ( ).
