ABSTRACT:
The device of the present application, an automatic flow control device, provides means for maintaining a constant flow rate of strained fluid despite varying differential pressures and employs a combination of a unitary body with a ball valve assembly, a strainer assembly, and a flow control valve assembly. The unitary body is essentially in the shape of a "Z" and provides a compact valve with minimum threaded joints and access to the various components thereof with minimum disassembly.
