Flow limiter SP/SMB9
for mounting plates

Flow limiters are used in large oil circulating
lubrication systems. The task of a flow limiter
is to divide up the volumetric flow of the main
line into parallel individual volumetric flow
quantities and to “limit” these according to
requirements, or to keep them constant.
The volumetric flow generated is independent
of the system pressure and virtually independent of viscosity.
The SP/SMB9 flow limiter was developed
specially for mounting plates. The advantage of this design is its simple and compact
construction.

Advantages
• reliable
perpetual dispensation of individual
volume flows
- self-adjusting metering, thus identical
volume flows despite different back
pressures.
- wide viscosity range, virtually independent of temperature and viscosity, thus
stable system conditions

Using interchangeable plug-in nozzles, the
volumetric flow of the flow limiter can be set
stepwise from 0.08 to 8 l/min. That makes it
possible to adjust the volumetric flow rates at
a later date.
• easy start up
Pre-adjusted volume flows enable short
start-up periods.
• effective monitoring of volume flow
with gear wheel-type flow indicator,
with Hall sensor
• wide range of operation
• optional ATEX version

• easy system design
The required volume flow and nozzle size
are determined during the engineering
phase.
• space-saving installation
thanks to a common base plate with only
one inlet for up to 6 flow limiters.

• stable and reproducible measurement,
no adjustment required.

The SP/SMB9 series comes with a visual/
electronic gear wheel-type flow indicator with
a specific flow of 12.0 ml per revolution of the
gears.
