Abstract

A valve for pressurized fluid including a body having a front face and a rear face and housing an internal fluid circuit having an upstream end configured to be placed in communication with a reserve of pressurized fluid and a downstream end configured to be placed in communication with a user of fluid, the circuit including a collection of valve shutter(s) including at least one shutoff valve shutter allowing the circuit to be closed or opened, the valve including a control lever controlling the collection of valve shutter(s), an end for grasping, the control lever being mounted with the ability to rotate on the valve between a rest position and an active position in which the control lever is away from the body of the valve and actuates the collection of valve shutter(s) into a position in which the circuit is open with a first bore section.
