Posi-Flate Magna Flow Control Valve

Overview

The 608 high-flow, black Magna Flow Control Valve is simple to operate from a fully closed position to a fully open position – turn 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 zero will yield 100 Magna setpoints, as indicated on the micrometer dial. The Magna Valve is fully open when the micrometer dial reads 1100 Magna. NOTE: On the series 700 and 808 valve, internal porting differences allow even more precise settings when high flows are required. A flow indicator on the side of the Magna Valve indicates the direction of flow to achieve best performance. A bottom cap is easily removed for inspection and/or for removing any foreign material which may block the outlet port. 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 setting 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.
