Abstract
A swinging‐gate type valve with associated triggering mechanism is employed as a protective device for quickly stopping a sudden accidental inrush of air to a vacuum system. The electrical triggering mechanism uses no vacuum tubes. For a large inrush of air, the valve will close in less than 0.01 sec.Keywords
