Description
The 2000-lb MBX needle valve meets the requirements for fine flow control in vacuum systems, where precision is essential. With an extremely fine-tipped tapered plug, it offers delicate and effective adjustment. Its versatility allows for use with fluids such as water, mineral, synthetic, and vegetable oils, as well as steam and air, making it a practical and reliable solution for various industrial environments.
When closed, the needle fits perfectly into a ring in the valve body, sealing the passage with precision. When the valve is opened, the needle moves smoothly, creating an annular passage around it, which enables progressive and detailed flow control. The adjustment capacity depends on the smoothness of the needle angle and the ratio between its length and diameter. Thus, the longer the needle, the greater the adjustment capacity, allowing for extremely fine adjustments that are essential for sensitive operations.
