NFDD
Fully adjustable needle valve
SERIES 2 / CAPACITY: 200 L/min. (12,7 mm) / CAVITY: T-5A
Needle valves are fully adjustable orifices used to regulate flow. They are infinitely adjustable from fully closed up to
the maximum orifice diameter. They are not pressure-compensated. They may be used as flow controls or as
shutoff valves.

TECHNICAL FEATURES
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.
Because needle valves are non-compensating devices, the fixed orifice size will regulate flow through the valve in proportion to the square root of the pressure
differential across ports 1 and 2.
A balanced adjustment mechanism allows for easy adjustment even at high pressures.
The sharp-edged orifice design minimizes flow variations due to viscosity changes.
The flow path through this valve is bi-directional. The preferred path is port 1 to 2, to allow interchangeability with other flow controls.
There is no leakage when the adjustment mechanism is turned to the shut-off position.
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.
For Series 1 cartridges configured with an O control (panel mount handknob), a .75 in. (19 mm) diameter hole is required in the panel.
