Multi-flowpath fluid control valve
An assembly includes a valve housing and a valve element such as a poppet valve. The valve housing includes a tubular duct and an annular valve seat disposed within the tubular duct. A first flowpath includes an inner bore of the annular valve seat. A second flowpath includes an aperture formed between the annular valve seat and the tubular duct. The poppet valve is configured to engage the annular valve seat and substantially close the first flowpath when the poppet valve is in a first position. The poppet valve is further configured to disengage the annular valve seat and at least partially open the first flowpath when the poppet valve is in a second position.
