Hi SYDTECH,

2 port? 3 Port? NO? NC? Voltage? Flow required?

Best regards,

John

Hi again,

The flow seems too high.

I checked a 150 bar 1/8" valve. It shows a flow of 66 litres / hour.

Best of luck

John

Agreed. My back of envelope says the linear flow rate would be about mach 0.5.

That's assuming the 5000 ltre/h is at actual conditions (26 bara). More likely to be at standard conditions (eg 15°C, 1 bara). In that case the actual velocity is about 8 m/s (depending on actual temperature). Could be OK, he'd need to work out losses if likely to be a problem.

Is that why you didn't say it?

No - it's because posting anything on CR$ using my mobile is too much of a pain in the a$$.

Apart from that, just realised I made a mistake in #11 . I used 25 barg, should be 25 MPa = 250 bar.

Even less problem with 5000 std litre/h, if he can find a valve good for that pressure.

" ... if he can find a valve good for that pressure" - indeed.

For small valves try Lee Valves and Burkett

300 liter/hr.

I'm sure there are others but these are quite economical.

25Mpa (3626psi) is off-scale for any of the valves on that link. .
