Abstract of the Disclosure A metering valve which is particularly advan- tageous for use in gas mixing devices such as patient ventilators, to accurately control the volume and fre- quency of gas flow for each gas and to provide a feed- back of the actual flow through the valve. A valve as- sembly which is infinitely openable within its operating range is connected to the core of a linear variable differential transformer. As the valve opens, the core of the transformer moves, causing a change in the output voltage from the transformer. The change in output voltage from the transformer can be interpreted by a microprocessor to discern the actual flow through the valve. Two or more of the metering valves can be used to accurately control the mixture ratios of two or more gases.
