The Conrader FR-Series Flow Regulators are designed to deliver a constant volume of water flow output over a wide pressure drop range. The controlling mechanism consists of a flexible orifice engineered to vary its effective area inversely to the applied pressure. At pressures above the threshold pressure (15-25 PSI) the orifice distorts reducing the opening size to maintain the output flow rate to within ±15% up to pressure drops of 125 psi.
