A metering actuator (40) is operable to control the metering valve means (36, 68) and a regulator actuator (40) is operable to control the regulator valve means (36, 62). The metering actuator and the regulator actuator may be one and the same actuator, so that the metering and pressure regulating functions of the device are provided by a common valve member (36). In use, the valve member (36) co-operates with both the metering valve outlet (68; 168) and a pressure regulator valve outlet (62; 162) upon axial movement of the valve member (36) under the control of the actuator (40).",
