Flow valves

Flow control valves are a type of flow valve. They generate a set constant flow rate, largely independently of the load.

Flow dividers are a type of metering valve. They divide or add together a total flow rate either evenly or using a fixed ratio. The consumer pressures have no effect.

Restrictors are a type of flow valve. They are used as a local flow resistance that suddenly reduces the line cross-section. The reduction in the cross-section is very short. As a result, the flow rate is only dependent on the pressure difference and not on the viscosity.

Throttle valves are a type of flow valve. They affect the flow rate for single and double-acting consumers.
