Notes:
1. Equaon above may be ulized to determine supply regulator consumpon requirements and
steady state bleed rates for control valves operated with a VPC BV Valve Pilot Controller.
2. When applicaons do not ulize Adjustable Orice, then the VPC internal Balanced Valve
becomes the liming factor to determine ow rates and resultant stroking mes. VPC Internal
Balanced Valve Cv=1.45.
