This flow restrictor is a novel solution to removing trapped air in hydraulic systems while keeping hydraulic losses to a minimum. Utilizing a small precision flow orifice, the 5.5 mm Insert Air Bleed Orifice Restrictor allows trapped air to escape but is small enough to restrict most hydraulic flow, minimizing system losses. It features an integrated safety screen for contamination protection and uses The Lee Company’s field-proven insert principle that provides secure retention without the need for threads, O-rings, or sealants.

The Lee Company has developed the Lohm Laws for defining and measuring resistance to fluid flow. The Lohm is defined such that 1 Lohm will flow 100 GPM of water with a pressure drop of 25 psi at a temperature of 80°F.
Always verify flow calculations by experiment.
