More Information
Summary:A fluid delivery system implemented within an in ovo injection apparatus is disclosed, wherein the fluid delivery system includes a plurality of membrane valves. In particular, the fluid delivery system includes a diaphragm valve that is used to meter out a precise volume of a treatment substance liquid. Further, the diaphragm valve includes certain standoff features on the surface thereof for reducing or entirely preventing the adhesion of the diaphragm to adjacent surfaces when left idle for an extended period of time, as well as an arrangement of fluid channels in the surface thereof for reducing or entirely preventing the trapping of liquid between the diaphragm and adjacent surfaces. The fluid delivery system includes features contributing to optimized flow characteristics.
