Flow is controlled by either throttling or diverting it. Throttling involves reducing orifice size until all of the flow cannot pass through the orifice; bypassing involves routing part of the flow ...

Compressible fluid flow through control valves will inevitably cause some form of flow-induced vibration in the fluid system. Identifying the type and cause of the vibration requires detective work.

New ZL Series proportional flow control valves from HydraForce Inc. (Lincolnshire, IL) are internally pressure-compensated and operate in two directions. "The valves provide identical flow vs current ...

Choked flow in control valves is a subject of serious concern for industrial users. The term is usually associated with destructive process conditions that can damage valve internals or expose ...

The D03 Series of zero-leak directional valves are for use with most hydraulic pumps to maintain pressure for very long periods without replenishing the pressure supply, preventing the hydraulic ...
