SHUTTLE VALVE
This valve is also known as OR valve. It has a three-port valve with two
signal pressure inlets and outlets. The outlet is connected to either
signal input. If only one input is pressurized, the shuttle prevents the
signal pressure from escaping through the exhausted signal port on
the opposite side.
