Description
Smith Meter® Flow Limiting Valves are automatic, self-actuating, globe-pattern, flow-limiting valves.
These valves are diaphragm operated and are used primarily in systems with parallel meter runs to protect the meters against excessive flow rate when less than the maximum number of meter runs are operating.
Features- Automatic Operation
- Simple Construction – Reduces maintenance costs and downtime
- Versatile – Horizontal or vertical
- Application – May be combined with other Smith Meter pilots to provide multiple control functions
