More Information
Summary:Exemplary embodiments are directed to a gas switching device including a body and a gas selector mechanism. The body includes an inlet and an outlet. The gas selector mechanism includes a first orifice in fluid communication with the inlet and a second orifice in fluid communication with the inlet. The gas selector mechanism includes a valve arm and a selector element. The selector element is configured to actuate the valve arm between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the selector element actuates the valve arm to close the second orifice for passage of a first type of gas through the first orifice. In the open position, the selector element actuates the valve arm to open the second orifice for passage of a second type of gas through both the first orifice and the second orifice.
