letter combinations

Reading time:

Table 84 provides the most common functional identifications.

FE = primary flow measurement element. E.g. diaphragm, venturi…

FO = flow limiter calibrated opening.

PCV = independent pressure controller. E.g. pressure relief valve.

PSV = independent safety mechanism on a pressure. E.g. safety valve.

PC = pressure controller.

PV = pressure control valve.
