Abstract

A dual orifice venturi vacuum drawback assembly includes a fluid supply passage that supplies fluid to the device, a fluid return passage that returns fluid from the device, a shutoff valve position on the fluid supply passage, a bypass passage, a bypass valve positioned on the bypass passage, and a dual orifice venturi valve. The bypass passage includes an inlet connected to the fluid supply passage upstream of the shutoff valve, and an outlet connected to the fluid return passage. The dual orifice venturi valve is positioned on the bypass passage upstream of the bypass valve. The dual orifice venturi valve includes a venturi inlet, a venturi outlet, a primary orifice, and a secondary orifice. The primary orifice is connected to a primary drawback opening on the fluid return passage. The secondary orifice is connected to a secondary drawback opening on the fluid return passage.
