Abstract
Flow control assemblies are provided. The flow control assemblies include a cap having a flow control system with an inlet port having an inlet valve and an outlet port having an outlet valve, wherein the flow control system achieves a Dosing Accuracy (DA) of about 100 or less according to the following formula: DA = [ ( Po - Pc ) ( Vd - Ls ) ] where, Po is a pressure to open the outlet valve (mmH2O), Pc is a pressure to close the outlet valve (mmH2O), Vd is a diameter of the outlet valve (mm), and Ls is a length of the valve opening (mm).
