Abstract

A fluid control valve, the fluid control valve including a first disc, a fluid inlet, and a second disc slidably coupled to the first disc and movable relative thereto, the second disc located between the fluid inlet and the first disc. The first disc includes a first outlet port coupled to a first outlet, a second outlet port coupled to a second outlet, and a third outlet port coupled to a third outlet. Movement in a first direction of the second disc relative to the first disc fluidly couples the fluid inlet to at least one of the first outlet port, the second outlet port, and the third outlet port, and wherein movement in a second direction of the second disc relative to the first disc controls the volume of fluid flowing from through the valve.
