An in-line flow control component includes a body having an inlet and an outlet that are substantially coaxial with a tube extending through the body. The tube forms a flow path between the inlet and the outlet, and one end of the tube sealingly engages a valve seat for controlling fluid flow between the inlet and outlet. First and second diaphragms each have an opening sealingly secured about an outer periphery of the tube and an outer peripheral portion sealed to the body. The diaphragms selectively move the tube between open and closed positions in response to force acting on the diaphragms. The force is provided by either a mechanical mechanism (toggle, wedge member, threaded adjustment knob, etc.) or fluid pressure introduced between the diaphragms. The diaphragms may be similarly or differently dimensioned. Plural flow control components may be assembled in end-to-end sealed relationship. |
