Flomatic CDS3.0 1/2" Flo-Trol® CDS – Stainless Steel Flow Control Valve (3.0 GPM)

The Flomatic CDS3.0 1/2" Flo-Trol® CDS – stainless-steel automatic flow control valve with a rated flow of 3.0 GPM and a 1/2" F inlet × 1/2" M outlet configuration is engineered to maintain a constant flow rate across a wide pressure range. This NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 certified valve is rated for a maximum working pressure of 200 psi and a maximum operating temperature of 180°F (82°C), making it ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial applications requiring precise flow regulation.

The Flo-Trol® CDS series uses a flexible Buna-N flow-control orifice with no moving internal parts. As system pressure increases, the elastomeric orifice flexes to maintain a consistent flow within ±15% between 15 and 125 psi. The corrosion-resistant 304 stainless-steel valve body and laser-engraved markings provide long-term durability and easy identification.

Operation: Flo-Trol® automatic flow control valves maintain a steady flow rate by using a flexible elastomeric orifice that adjusts with pressure changes. This design eliminates mechanical components, ensuring quiet, maintenance-free service even under varying pressure conditions.

Construction: The Flomatic CDS valve body is manufactured from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel and paired with a precision-molded Buna-N flow-control orifice. Each valve is laser-engraved with the flow rate and size for simple field identification.

Proud to manufacture high-quality valves built to last since 1933, Flomatic® Valves is an American valve manufacturer certified under ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 quality and environmental management systems.
