Rate Regulator WK Orifice
WK Flow rate limiters limit the value of the liquid delivery to a determined value (aggressive ones are included). Its functioning is based on the variation of the differential pressure. The flow increase tends to increase the value of the differential pressure between instrument inlet and outlet. That causes more pressure on the shutter that, supported by an ORing functioning as an elastic body, enters more inside the passage hole, reducing the section. It results a delivery limitation at the nominal value of the instrument.
Use / Characteristics
 
- Delivery limitation without using external energy.
- No parts in movement.
- Suitable for aggressive liquids too.
 
These instruments are mainly used as automatic distribution on the branches of primary delivery lines. They do not need adjustment.
