If you need more precise flow control than you can get from a butterfly valve, then you need a linear flow control valve like the Elektrogas LMV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Servomotors drive LMV valves. The Elektrogas MZ3 servomotor provides 3-point step control. This means your valve has 3 positions, a min, max, and a third position dependent on when power is removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, coupling an LMV with an MZ5 servomotor provides continuous control. This gives you an extremely precise flow control. Information from the temperature controller drives the MZ5 in the form of an analog signal. This can be 0-10V, 0-20mA, or 4-20mA (selectable using dip switches on the MZ5). MZ5 is very easy to set up (check out our video!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to set the min. and max. positions on an Elektrogas MZ5 actuator\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KNl9Rc-fWE0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Function <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The flow varies according to the opening angle of the inner cylinder, while the outer cylinder is fixed.
