MODEL

FXCA

Fixed orifice, pressure compensated flow control valve

SERIES 1 / CAPACITY: 23 L/min. / CAVITY: T-13A

Fixed-orifice, pressure-compensated flow controls provide precise flow regulation for meter-in or meter-out

applications where there may be wide pressure fluctuations. The flow setting is specified by the user and is set at

the factory.

TECHNICAL FEATURES

Customer must specify a flow rating. Factory set flow ratings are within +/- 10% of the requested setting.

Cartridges with EPDM seals are for use in systems with phosphate ester fluids. Exposure to petroleum based fluids, greases and lubricants will damage the seals.

The sharp-edged orifice design minimizes flow variations due to viscosity changes.

The tuneable control option provides +/- 25% variation from the nominal factory pre-set flow. Turn the adjustment clockwise to increase.

All 2-port flow control cartridges are physically and functionally interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size). However, cartridge

extension dimensions from the mounting surface may vary.

Corrosion resistant cartridge valves are intended for use in corrosive environments and are identified by the model code suffix /AP for external stainless steel

components, or /LH for external zinc-nickel plated components. See the CONFIGURATION section for all options. For further details, please see the Materials of

Construction page located under TECH RESOURCES.

Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge

machining variations.
