Abstract
A flow rate control device comprises a regulator that adjusts the pressure of a fluid to be supplied, a plurality of narrowed pathways arranged in parallel on the downstream side of the regulator, and an open/close section that switches a predetermined narrowed pathway amongst the plurality of narrowed pathways between an open position and a closed position. One of the pathways can be an open narrowed pathway arranged on the downstream side of the regulator and another can be an opened/closed narrowed pathway arranged downstream of the regulator in parallel with the open narrowed pathway. In this case, the open/close section that switches the opened/closed narrowed pathway between as open position and a closed position.
