Typical Flow vs Differential Pressure for Application Sizing
Flow rate is per 25.4 cm (10 in.) cartridge. For liquids other than water, multiply differential pressure by fluid viscosity (cP)
.1Provided that the maximum differential pressure is not exceeded based on temperature limits defined above.
