VENTIL

Specified is a valve having a valve seat, having a valve element (3) which interacts with the valve seat and is moveable in a valve housing (11) over a predetermined movement path, and having a damping device (22) which acts on the valve element (3) at least on a part of the movement path. It is sought to obtain stable control of a fluid even at a low throughflow rate. It is provided for this purpose that the damping device (22) has at least one element (23, 24) made from an elastomeric material which can be compressed between a first stop (16), which is connected to the valve element, and a second stop (28), which is connected to the valve housing (11).
