Abstract
A pressure control system controls pressure in a fluid system, and includes a compressor for producing pressurized fluid, with the compressor coupled to a rotor valve and pressure controller. A manifold supports at least the valve and pressure controller, and the manifold has integral passages within establishing a connection for fluids from the compressor to the valve and pressure controller for controlling the fluid pressure to the system.
