Abstract
A fluid supply valve includes a valve plate having cold and hot apertures respectively aligned with the cold and hot inlets. A pressure balancer is rotatably supported adjacent to the mixing valve plate. The pressure balancer is rotatable between a closed position to prohibit fluid flow through the mixing valve plate and a range of positions to enable fluid flow through the pressure balancer and through the mixing valve plate to supply fluid from the outlet port.
