For use in oil circulation systems
The SMB 3 flow limiter is designed to divide the main line flow into parallel, individual flows. The flow is generated independently of system pressure changes and virtually independently of viscosity, guaranteeing a constant flow.
The SMB 3 provides a flow rate from 6 to 38 l/min (12.6–80.3 pts/min) and a pressure range of up to 200 bar. The flow limiter offers oil flow monitoring with a signal transmitter or piston detector. These indicators create a fault signal when the flow rate drops to approximately 85%.
The SMB 3 flow limiter is a perfect soltution for applications with changing ambient temperatures and the need for a stable oil flow such as in oil circulation lubrication systems.
