The Bimba FCP6 flow control valve by Bimba Manufacturing Co. is a 3/8" NPT male-to-female, meter-out flow control designed for industrial pneumatic systems. Housed in a chrome-plated zinc die-cast body, it provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability. Precision flow control is achieved via a recessed, screwdriver-adjustable needle. With a free-flow Cv of 0.91 and a controlled-flow Cv of 0.73, it is ideal for regulating the speed of pneumatic cylinders and actuators.
- 3/8" NPT Male-to-Female Ports: Common industrial size, easy to integrate into existing air line systems.
- Meter-Out Flow Control: Delivers controlled flow when exhausting air and unrestricted flow when pressurizing, offering smooth braking or retraction control.
- Recessed Screwdriver Adjustment: Offers precise flow tuning while protecting the adjuster from accidental changes.
- Durable Construction: Chrome-plated, zinc die-cast body resists wear and corrosion?ideal for industrial environments.
- High Flow Capacity: Cv ?0.91 (free flow) and 0.73 (controlled), suitable for cylinders and moderate flow rates.
