Abstract

A valve connection array for mounting at a cabinet wall in a sealed cabinet for disposing a plurality of valve connection blocks in at least one row is disclosed. Each valve connection block includes a valve connection portion on a front surface for individually connecting a valve and associated connections ports on a rear surface for connecting pressurized medium conduits. At least one row of valve connection blocks define between opposite side surfaces thereof at least one inlet port and at least one outlet port for providing common inlet and outlet ports between juxtaposed valve connection blocks. The blocks include means for mounting the blocks in said row with said sides sealingly juxtaposed for defining said common inlet and outlet ports between blocks and with said blocks defining a common flat surface area substantially in the form of a rectangle around said row. The row of blocks is mounted into a cabinet in a rectangular opening in the cabinet wall to dispose the valve connection portions inside the cabinet and said connection ports outside the cabinet, with the rectangular flat surface area sealingly engaging an edge portion of said cabinet wall defining the opening. First and second end members are mounted to the block array for closing the common inlet and outlet ports of said valve connection block array.
