Gas shutoff options

Hey, we are using a couple of PE instruments with manually controlled gases to the FIDs. Does anyone know of any valves we could buy to shut off the gases at a certain time (so we could do weekend runs, evening, etc, without having to come and shut off the gases).

cody841,
Two key questions. 1) Are you mostly on or mostly off? 2) What are you going to use for control of said valves?
I have set up a group of GC's to go idle on nitrogen and switch to helium when running but the are mostly off and sometimes on. Very important distinction.
Best regards,
