Abstract
A container, a method for dispensing a fluid contained in the container and a valve are disclosed. The container includes a valve that permits the contents of the container to be dispensed and re-sealed after use. In some embodiments, the valve automatically opens when a suitable connector is attached to the container and automatically closes when the connector is removed from the container. The container can also optionally include a pressure relief system and provisions to prevent backflow into the container. The container is also designed to be backward compatible with existing hardware and connectors.
