Patent ID: 8887746

Claim:
A fluid flow control system, comprising: an electronic flow control valve configured to selectively receive a first fluid from a first fluid supply; an electronic flow selector configured to allow for a selection of a flow rate of the first fluid from the first fluid supply via the electronic flow control valve; a controller configured to transmit a control signal to the electronic flow control valve to cause the electronic flow control valve to allow the first fluid to flow at the flow rate selected via the electronic flow selector; a mechanical flow control valve configured to selectively receive the first fluid from the first fluid supply; a manual flow selector configured to control a flow rate of the first fluid from the first fluid supply via the mechanical flow control valve; and an activation mechanism configured to: inhibit the operation of the manual flow selector when the fluid flow control system is in an electronic mode; and enable the operation of the manual flow selector when the fluid flow control system is in a manual mode.
