The flow controller is set to the calculated flow value by turning the number cap with the adjusting wrench. If the flow at the valve increases, the sleeve is moved by the increasing pressure, thereby continuously limiting the flow to the set value.
The set flow is never exceeded.
If the flow rate drops below the set flow rate value, a spring pushes the sleeve back into its starting position
