Abstract
Abstract A control is disclosed for automatically metering fluid flow as a function of the difference between two pressures or of a single pressure. A restriction is disposed in the fluid outlet line so that the metered flow will depend upon pressure differential across the restriction. The pressure upstream of the restriction is regulated by a valve in the supply line activated by a computing diaphragm assembly consisting essentially of three spaced interconnected disc elements responsive to the difference between the two pressures or a single control pressure when one of the pressures is fixed.
