Model BV54 Flow Limiting Valve
The Model BV54 Brodie Flow Limiting Valve is normally opened and designed to
maintain a controlled flow rate within +/-2%.
The pilot is balanced, single seated valve with
large ports and will operate on a differential as
low as 5 psi (34.5 kPa).
Principle of Operation The Model BV54 valve is pilot operated and operates on a balanced piston principle, spring biased to a closed position. Pressure differential overcomes the force of the spring, causing the main valve to open and establish flow. The Rate of Flow (Flow Limiting) Valve is normally open and throttles toward a closed position on increasing differential pressure.
