The non-bridge-type flow valve island includes a valve seat and a valve island body mounted on the valve seat. The valve island body includes a first solenoid valve, a second solenoid valve, a pressure sensor, and a flow sensor. The valve seat has a first gas channel, a second gas channel, an inlet, and an outlet. The first solenoid valve connects the inlet to the inlet end of the first gas channel. The second solenoid valve connects the outlet end of the first gas channel to the inlet end of the second gas channel. The flow sensor connects the outlet to the outlet end of the second gas channel. The pressure sensor is disposed on the first gas channel and is used to test the gas pressure in the first gas channel.

[0004] The existing flow valve island connects the solenoid valve, flow switch, and pressure sensor with a connector and air pipe. The solenoid valve controls the air supply, the flow switch accurately detects the flow rate, and the pressure sensor measures the pipeline pressure. The existing air pipe connection between the flow meter and the pressure sensor poses a risk of air leakage. If the air pipe and connector are not properly assembled, air leakage will occur. At the same time, the large space required for assembly prevents the reduction of the instrument size. The air pipe connection between the various parts occupies a large space. Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a new type of flow valve island to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] Preferably, the fixing component includes a plug screw, the main valve seat and the auxiliary valve seat are fixedly connected by the plug screw, and the flow switch is snapped between the main valve seat and the auxiliary valve seat.

[0008] Preferably, the set screws are provided in multiple sets, and the multiple sets of set screws are arranged in a rectangular pattern.

[0009] Preferably, a sealing silicone sealant is provided between the pressure sensor and the secondary valve seat.
