MODELS: FC8744 / FC8800 / FC8900
FC Manual Flow Controllers
Stable Flow Control When Process Pressures Change
The FC Series provides precise manual gas and liquid flow control by maintaining a constant differential pressure across the regulating valve, helping maintain consistent flow when supply or discharge pressures change.
Available for lower and higher flow applications with variable upstream or downstream pressure, FC Series controllers can be used as standalone instruments or integrally mounted to a compatible flow meter for a compact, space-saving installation.
Features & Benefits
- Consistent Flow Despite Pressure Changes: Maintains a constant differential pressure across the manual regulating valve to help keep gas or liquid flow stable as upstream or downstream pressure changes.
- Compact, Space-Saving Design: Combines flow control and visual indication in a compact assembly when integrally mounted to a compatible flow meter, reducing additional piping, fittings and mounting space required for separate components.
- Flexible Control for Different Pressure Conditions: Choose FC8744 for low flows with variable downstream pressure, FC8800 for variable upstream pressure or FC8900 for variable downstream pressure.
- Precise Manual Flow Adjustment: High-resolution valve options provide fine flow adjustment for applications requiring accurate, repeatable control.
- Broad Gas and Liquid Flow Capability: Supports air flows up to 2,130 scfh / 56,000 ln/h and water flows up to 480 gph / 1,820 l/h.
- Designed for Demanding Pressure Conditions: Configurations are available for operating pressures up to 1,000 psig / 69 bar.
- Flexible Materials and Installation Options: Multiple body, diaphragm and valve materials, along with front- and rear-mounting options, help accommodate a range of fluids and installation requirements.
