Pilot valve manifold

A valve assembly, comprising:

• a unitary valve body;
• a linear inlet port formed longitudinally through at least a portion of said valve body, said inlet port having an inlet at one longitudinal end of said valve body for connection with a source of fluid;
• at least two pairs of laterally spaced bores formed in longitudinally spaced relation in said valve body;
• each of said pairs of bores including a first bore registering with said inlet port and having an inlet valve seat downstream thereof and a second bore having an outlet valve seat;
• exhaust valve means operatively carried in said second bores and inlet valve means operatively carried in said first bores;
• each of said valve means including a piston controlled valve member moveable under pilot pressure from an open position to a closed position against a respective valve seat;
• an exhaust port formed in said valve body and fluidly connected at said outlet valve seat downstream thereof, passage means interconnecting said valve seats and pressurizing the upstream side of the valve member of said exhaust valve means in the closed position to move such valve member to an open position;
• the valve member of said inlet valve means in the closed position being moved by the pressurized fluid to the open position;
• an outlet port fluidly communicating with said passage means for operative fluid connection to a fluidic device;
• and control means connected to the pilot pressure for selectively actuating the piston associated with a discrete valve member.
