Description

Pneu-trol model EPC541 Easy Read pressure compensated constant flow regulator valves are exceptionally accurate in maintaining constant flow with pressures up to 3,000 psi (207 bar). These adjustable valves, while under pressure, allow infinite output flow adjustment within a specified flow range independent of inlet pressure variations. An internal check valve to bypass the control orifice provides unrestricted free reverse flow.

The compensating action of these valves results from an adjustable orifice at the inlet end and a series of variable orifices at the outlet end. Flow through the variable orifices is controlled by a spring and piston. These elements work together to regulate hydraulic flow within the determined rates. Flows are controlled within ±15% up to 1.5 gpm (5.7 lpm) and ±10% at higher flow up to 15.0 gpm (56.8 lpm). Valves will start to control flow at 60/70 psi (4.1/4.8 bar) pressure drop. Regulation is virtually unaffected by temperature changes from 60º F (16º C) to 180º F (82º C). At a temperature differential [ΔT] of 70º F (21º C) flow variation would be approximately ±2% max; while at temperature differential [ΔT] of 120º F (49º C) the flow variation would be approximately ±4% max.

Metal setting knob and stem provide added durability for positive operation of valve in harsh industrial environments. Color coded stem plus numerical read-out ensures accurate setting for precise pressure compensated flow control and repeatability.
