Abstract: A flow control system is disclosed. The flow control system can include a flow meter positioned at a first location of a flow path of a fluid substance, and a valve positioned at a second location of the flow path of the fluid substance. The flow meter can include a molded non-conductive housing, a heating element that is at least partially embedded in the housing, and a sensing element that is at least partially embedded in the housing. The valve can open the flow path to allow the fluid substance to flow in the flow path. The valve can include an actuator that includes deformable chamber and a gate in the flow path of the fluid substance.
