Magna Flow Control Valve - Series 608 - Posi-flate - #2

The Magna Flow Control Valve is simple to operate from a fully closed position to a fully open position, by turning the microme­ter dial clockwise to close and counter-clockwise to open. The Magna Valve is only fully closed when the micrometer dial indi­cates the OFF position. From the OFF position to ZERO, or when flow begins, is about two turns counter-clockwise. Each successive full turn from 2ero will yield 100 Magna seipoints, as indicated on the micrometer dial. The Magna Valve Is fully open when the micrometer dial reads 1100 Magna.

A flow indicator on the side of the Magna Valve indicates the direction of flow to achieve the best performance. A bottom cap is easily removed for inspection and/or for removing any for­eign material which may block the outlet port. The Series 608 and the Series 700 valves have the same physical dimensions and 1/2" NPT inlet and outlet ports. Only the internal porting is different in order to achieve high or low flow.

Because of the linear flow charac­teristics of the Magna Flow Control Valve, determining precise flow re­sults is easy. Unlike most flow con­trol valves, the Magna flow curve is a relatively straight line curve. Therefore any time a Magna setting is doubled, the flow is predictably doubled as well. For instance, if a Magna setfing of 300 yields a flow of 75 SCFM, then changing the Ma­gna setting to 600 will yield a flow of 150 SCFM. This applies to both gas and liquid flows.
