Abstract
A diaphragm valve for fluid control includes a valve housing having a valve chamber, into which at least three passageways open. The passageways have associated therewith valve seats provided in the valve housing. Further, the diaphragm valve for fluid control includes a diaphragm having various diaphragm sections that can be pressed against associated valve seats in order to selectively open and close flow connections between passageways. Further, the diaphragm valve for fluid control includes at least two control pistons, which are displaceably accommodated in respectively one cylinder chamber and are respectively coupled with the associated diaphragm section via a pressure transfer unit in order to move the diaphragm section, during the movement of the control piston, into an opening or closing position, wherein the cylinder chambers are located at the same axial height, so that the control pistons can be moved next to each other.
