Flow control ACC6NN019
A pressure compensated, flow control device
(ParkerHannifinpartnumberACC6NN019)
has been develop to give the icount PD greater
flexibility.
The flow control device enables testing where flow
ranges are out side the icountPD specification i.e.
(40–140ml/min),orwherepipediametersdonot
allow the icountPD to be installed.
The flow control device fits onto the downstream
(outlet)sideoftheicountPD.A06LEO24deg
cone and hydraulic adaptor is supplied which
enables connection directly to the icountPD.
Alternatively the flow control device can be fitted
further down stream.
The compact design requires no setting up or
further user intervention as long as the system
conditions remain within the recommended
pressure and viscosity ranges as below.
