Automatic Flow Restrictor

An AUTOMATIC FLOW RESTRICTOR can monitor line pressure in a variety of ways:
whether pressure decreases over time,
how long it takes for a line to reach operating pressure,
combinations of increases and decreases in pressure.

If a possible leak is detected, the restrictor will keep product flow through the line at 3 g/hr - well below the usual flow rate.

Automatic flow restrictors are permanently installed into the pipe or the pump housing. Total installed cost per line is about $300 - $400. Annual operating costs are negligible.
