Flow Restrictor Valves
DGMFN-3-4*
General Description
These valves regulate flow by means
of an adjustable orifice which is not
pressure compensated, and flow
through the valve is entirely dependent
upon pressure drop at any particular
setting of the orifice.
Dual service-line models with an integral
non-return valve around each control
orifice provide for meter-in or meter-out
control; single line versions of these are
available.
For flow restriction in P or T lines (where
reverse free flow is not required) models
without check valves are available.
Adjustment options are either
screw/locknut or handknob.
