BT-Maric constant flow valves
– are designed to deliver a predetermined, constant flow rate for water

The BT-Maric constant flow valves (sometimes called flow restrictors, flow limiters) maintain a fixed, pre-set (non-adjustable), constant flow rate, regardless of pressure. BT-Maric flow restrictors will keep the flow rate of a liquid in a pipe system to a specified value, regardless of pressure variations.

Bertfelt is the leading manufacturer of BT-Maric constant flow valves for industrial use.

flow rates from 0,15/L min to 8.854 l/min

Precise constant flow valves

Bertfelt offers a complete range (flow rates from 0,15 L/min to 8.854 L/min) of precise constant flow valves for industrial use
– that saves water and makes products and processes more efficient.

We also offer Tailor-made OEM solutions in order to meet our OEM Manufacturers customer challenges.

Used in many different applications

Our flow limiters are used in many different industries and applications such as process and food industries, water treatment, pump & filter protection, fire fighting, marine applications, irrigation and farming etc.

Applications

This is how it works

Why should you use constant flow valve restrictors?

Have you got the following challenges?

  • Do you need a constant and limited flow in your application?
  • Do you need a stable flow rate regardless of pressure of variations?
  • Do you need to control and minimize water flow rate?
  • Do you need to optimize water consumption in your system?
  • Do you need to protect your (centrifugal) pumps or filters?
  • Do you need to mix fluids in specific proportions? At high pressure? At low pressure?
  • Do you want to save water in hotels, restaurants, waterparks, condominium, campings by limiting flow rate at usage points?
  • Do you need to limit the water taking near the source within your irrigating system?
  • Is saving water a priority to you?

BT-Maric constant flow restrictors will help you to…

  • improve water flow or similar media in your process or product by always providing the chosen specified flow rate regardless of the pressure variations.
    Your system will thus have a stable, constant flow rate, if the pressure drop is within specified limits. It will prevent the break down or damage of your equipment and extend its life span. It will provide valuable protection for flow rate sensitive pumps, filters, pump glands, and water distribution “systems”.
  • reduce investment and flow-related operating costs by always providing the chosen specified fluid flow rate regardless of the pressure variations. Pressure variations often occur in systems with many points of“consumption”.
  • save water by limiting flow rate at usage points. Water is a vital and needs to be saved at all times.

How does BT-Maric flow limiters work?

This is how it works

BT-Maric constant flow valves utilize a flexible rubber control O-ring with an orifice diameter that responds instantly to fluctuations in water pressure.

As pressure differential increases, the orifice diameter reduces to maintain the pre-set flow rate.

Likewise, as pressure reduces, the orifice opens up to maintain the pre-set flow rate.

A mechanical solution to achieve constant flow.

LOW PRESSURE

The ring has a larger opening at low pressure.

HIGH PRESSURE

At high pressure the ring is pressed against the conical body. The ring’s opening reduces and the flow remains constant.
