Description: Our smallest needle valve features M3 threaded inlet and hose barb or M3 threaded outlet. A manifold mount version also available. The NV3 is a great choice for applications where space and/or weight savings is critical.
Working Pressure Range: The NV3 is rated for a maximum inlet pressure of 300 psi. The metal to metal seal provides positive shut-off down to 25 in Hg.
Effective Orifice: 0” to 0.032” (0-0.8mm) for both the standard and high resolution needles. About 0-1 SCFM air flow at 50psig. The high resolution version is especially well suited for control of low flow rates.
Adjustment: All versions come equipped with a 1-72 threaded adjustment screw.
- About 4 revolutions of the adjustment screw from fully opened to fully closed with standard needle specified.
- About 9 revolutions from fully opened to fully closed with high resolution needle specified.
