Abstract :
This paper describes the design of an intelligent metering valve which can be used for controlling chemical processes. The valve can be controlled remotely via a pair of communication wires from a host computer. A useful feature of the design is the ability to connect a large number of valves to the same pair of communications lines which can provide control and a status report of each valve
