Abstract:
A fluid dispensing system for mixing at least a first and second fluid comprising:a first flow path carrying said first fluid; a second flow path carrying said second fluid; a valve within said second flow path positioned downstream from a source of said second fluid, said valve comprising a valve plunger and a dispensing fluid flow path carrying said second fluid; and a mixer for combining said first and second fluids downstream of said valve; wherein said first flow path is fluidly engaged with said valve to open said dispensing fluid flow path when fluid is carried through said first flow path, and wherein said first flow path applies a vacuum force to said valve plunger within said valve so as to move said plunger from a closed position in which flow through said second flow path is prevented, to an open position in which flow through said second flow path is enabled.
