DYNAMIC BALANCING VALVE FOR CONTROL OF FLOW RATE INDEPENDENTLY OF PRESSURE

摘要

Pressure independent flow rate control valve, for placement in hydraulic systems between upstream inlet and downstream outlet ducts, including a first functional unit arranged between the inlet and outlet ducts, mobile equipment actuated manually or by an actuator for setting and modifying the orifice span of a fluid passage, and thus the valve flow rate, up to complete closure; and a second functional unit for maintaining the differential pressure constant between upstream and downstream of the first unit, and thus the set valve flow rate independently of pressure fluctuations in the hydraulic system. The mobile equipment includes main equipment and secondary equipment which can linearly translate with respect to the main equipment for presetting the maximum valve flow rate, the main equipment carrying integrally the secondary equipment and being linearly displaced by the actuator for modulating the fluid flow rate from the preset maximum one up to complete closure.
