More Information
Summary:An assembly is provided that includes a regulator manifold and a regulator element. The regulator manifold includes an inlet passage, a first outlet passage and a second outlet passage. The inlet passage is configured to receive bleed gas from a core flowpath. The regulator element is within the regulator manifold and configured to pivot to a first position, a second position and an intermediate position between the first position and the second position. The regulator element is configured to fluidly couple the inlet passage with the first outlet passage in the first position. The regulator element is configured to fluidly couple the inlet passage with the second outlet passage in the second position. The regulator element is configured to fluidly decouple the inlet passage from the first outlet passage and the second outlet passage in the intermediate position.
