Abstract
A valve system includes a valve, a valve controller, and a heat exchanger. The valve is configured to open and close a control device in response to a working fluid. The controller controls the flow of the working fluid to and from the valve. The heat exchanger is mounted between the valve and the valve controller. The heat exchanger receives the working fluid from the valve, cools the working fluid using a cooling stream, and delivers cooled working fluid to the valve controller.
