Flow Metering Valves

The Lee Restrictor Chek^® is a miniature 0.187 inch diameter valve that provides metered flow in one direction and no flow in the other direction. These components are functionally equivalent to a check valve in series with a flow restrictor. Combining these two products in a single package equates to significant savings in size, weight, and cost. The components are available standard in metered Lohm rates from 1000 – 10,000 Lohms, with an integral safety screen to protect the orifice.

The Lee Company’s dual metering flow control valves are two-way restrictors that allow a designer to specify a different metered flow rate in each direction. These valves are ideal for high-pressure hydraulic applications with system pressures up to 5000 psi. They feature all stainless steel construction for durability and long life and are available in 0.187 and 0.281 inch diameter models. Each Lee Dual Metering Flow Control is 100% tested in both flow directions to ensure reliable, consistent performance.

Because each direction can be specified differently, our dual metering flow controls can achieve a nearly infinite combination of metered flow rates. As such, all of these components are supplied as custom items to meet the specific needs of an application.
