High-flow fluid valve block

A valve block comprising:

• a pressure plate comprising:
• a pressure channel configured to receive a pressurized first fluid;
• and
• a recess in a surface of the pressure plate, wherein the pressure channel and the recess are fluidly connected;
• a fluid transfer block comprising:
• an inlet connection configured to receive a second fluid;
• an outlet connection;
• a plurality of valve inlet bores each fluidly connected to the inlet connection;
• and
• a plurality of valve outlet bores each fluidly connected to the outlet connection, wherein the plurality of valve inlet bores are surrounded, at least in part, by the plurality of valve outlet bores;
• and
• a diaphragm between the pressure plate and the fluid transfer block, wherein the plurality of valve inlet bores and the plurality of valve outlet bores are adjacent to the recess.
