A multiple port rotary valve for flow switching comprises a rotor (2), a stator (7), a compressor supply (8) and a compressor return (6). Gas is supplied via the compressor supply throughout a switching cycle such that the rotor is lifted away from the stator (7). The valve further comprises a balance ram to counteract the effect of the differential pressure produced by the compressor supply, such that a gas seal is formed at the rotor/stator interface.
