A pneumatic system includes a first line, a second line, and a valve. The first line is configured to be connected to a container, and to convey a flow of gas from a source to the container. The second line is arranged co-axially with the first line and is in communication with gas in the container.
A pneumatic system includes a first line, a second line, and a valve. The first line is configured to be connected to a container, and to convey a flow of gas from a source to the container. The second line is arranged co-axially with the first line and is in communication with gas in the container. The valve is connected in series with the first line, between the source and the container. Furthermore, the valve is in communication with the second line and is configured to control the flow of gas through the first line as a function of a characteristic of the gas in the container, as communicated by the second line.

1. A pneumatic system, comprising: a first line configured to be coupled to a container, and to convey a flow of gas from a source to the container;a second line arranged co-axially with the first line and in communication with gas in the container, wherein the second line is narrower than the first line and extends within the first line;a valve coupled in series with the first line, between the source and the container, wherein the valve comprises: a valve body having a first port, a second port, and an exhaust port; anda valve gate operable within the valve body to selectively close the first port, the second port, and the exhaust port, place the first port in fluid communication with the second port, and place the container in fluid communication with the exhaust port;wherein the valve gate is in communication with the second line and is configured to control the flow of gas through the first line as a function of the pressure of the gas within the container; anda pressure regulator coupled to the source and to the valve, wherein the pressure regulator provides a pilot pressure to a first end of the valve gate, and wherein the second line provides a feedback to a second end of the valve gate. 2. The pneumatic system of claim 1, wherein the pilot pressure is less than 10 psi. 3. The pneumatic system of claim 2, wherein the pilot pressure is 2 psi or less. 4. The pneumatic system of claim 1, wherein the valve controls the flow of gas through the first line as a function of a pressure differential between the gas in the container and the pilot pressure. 5. The pneumatic system of claim 4, wherein the valve is a spool valve having a valve plug translatable upon an air bearing. 6. The pneumatic system of claim 1, wherein the second line projects from an end of the first line such that when the first line is coupled to the container, the second line extends into the volume of the container. 7. The pneumatic system of claim 1, wherein the second line is configured such that when the first line is coupled to the container the second line is simultaneously placed in communication with the gas in the container. 8. A pneumatic system, comprising: a first line configured to be coupled to a container, and to convey a flow of gas from a source to the container;a second line configured such that when the first line is coupled to the container, the second line is simultaneously placed in communication with gas in the container;a valve coupled in series with the first line, between the source and the container, wherein the valve comprises: a valve body having a first port, a second port, and an exhaust port;a valve gate operable within the valve body to selectively close the first port, the second port, and the exhaust port, place the first port in fluid communication with the second port, and place the container in fluid communication with the exhaust port;wherein the valve gate is in communication with the second line and is configured to control the flow of gas through the first line as a function of the pressure of the gas within the container; anda pressure regulator coupled to the source and to the valve, wherein the pressure regulator provides a pilot pressure to a first end of the valve gate, and wherein the second line provides a feedback to a second end of the valve gate. 9. The pneumatic system of claim 8, wherein the second line is arranged co-axially with the first line. 10. The pneumatic system of claim 9, wherein the second line is narrower than the first line and extends within the first line. 11. The pneumatic system of claim 10, wherein the second line projects from an end of the first line such that when the first line is coupled to the container, the second line extends into the volume of the container. 12. A pneumatic system, comprising: a first line configured to be coupled to a lower-pressure container, and to convey a flow of gas from a higher-pressure source to the lower-pressure container;a second line coupled to the first line and in communication with gas in the lower-pressure container, wherein the second line projects from an end of the first line such that when the first line is coupled to the lower-pressure container, the second line extends into the volume of the lower-pressure container;a valve coupled in series with the first line, between the higher-pressure source and the lower-pressure container, wherein the valve comprises: a valve body having a first port, a second port, and an exhaust port; anda valve gate operable within the valve body to selectively close the first port, the second port, and the exhaust port, place the first port in fluid communication with the second port, and place the lower-pressure container in fluid communication with the exhaust port;wherein the valve gate is in communication with the second line and is configured to control the flow of gas through the first line as a function of the pressure of the gas within the lower-pressure container; anda pressure regulator coupled to the higher-pressure source and to the valve, wherein the pressure regulator provides a pilot pressure to a first end of the valve gate, and wherein the second line provides a feedback to a second end of the valve gate. 13. The pneumatic system of claim 12, wherein the second line is arranged co-axially within the first line. 14. The pneumatic system of claim 13, wherein the second line is narrower than the first line and extends within the first line. 15. The pneumatic system of claim 14, wherein the second line is configured such that when the first line is coupled to the lower-pressure container the second line is simultaneously placed in communication with the gas in the lower-pressure container.
