Minimum flow valves are devices used in hydraulic and pumping systems to control the flow of fluids. These valves are particularly used in pumping systems to prevent damage to pumps and other equipment when fluid flow needs to be reduced.
The main function of these valves is to prevent “zero flow” or “less than minimum flow” conditions, which can lead to problems such as pump overheating or failure. Minimum flow valves are designed to provide a path for fluid to re-flow and maintain flow at a minimum when the system flow drops to a certain level. This function extends the life of the pumps and prevents pressure drop and overheating of the pumps.
Therefore, these types of valves help pump systems to operate optimally and safely, especially in situations where precise flow control is required under various conditions.
Below you will find the inventory list of minimum flow valves:
