Flow control valves are designed to regulate the flow of hydraulic fluids. They can also be used to control the level of liquids in containers. These valves come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They are a critical part of a greener lifestyle. They can reduce water use, conserve natural resources, and save money on water bills.
Flow control valves are typically designed to limit load-induced pressure fluctuations. They do this by maintaining a steady, relatively constant flow rate. They also protect the supply system from excess demand. They do this by allowing the fluid to flow through the valve without obstructing the flow. They also reduce process variability.
Flow controllers are usually designed to have a finely machined stem. This stem matches the profile of the seat and helps to match the flow rate. They are often used in fluid power systems. They can be operated manually or automatically.
Pressure compensated variable flow control valves are used in hydraulic systems to control the flow rate. They are also available with reverse-flow check valves. They can be placed in series to control multiple actuator circuits. These valves come with adjustable variable orifices. They also are available with overload relief valves.
Pressure- and temperature-compensated variable flow-control valves adjust the orifice size to offset changes in fluid viscosity. They can also be cascaded in series to control multiple actuator circuits. They are available with integral reverse-flow check valves. They are also available with progressive flow characteristics.
