19. A manifold comprising:
-
a housing; a pressure drop pathway within the housing, the pressure drop pathway being in operable communication with a number of orifices; and a selectively positionable valve stem having a transverse flow channel therethrough, the flow channel being selectively alignable with a set of orifices to permit fluid exit from the pressure drop pathway. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23)
