The Fluid Flow factors contained herein are calculated values. They are,<br />
therefore, approximations and cannot be used for highly critical flow or<br />
pressure drop calculations. For very precise flow measurements, tests must be<br />
conducted on any valve mentioned within this catalog. Throttling of ball valves<br />
is not recommended when valves are less than 45° open.<br />
