If the Kv indication states too high and the selection of the next lower Kv states too low, always select the higher Kv value. Attention please: The flow calculation is already designed for twice the theoretical value. Avoid further flow doubling since this might cause an unfavourable control behaviour.

Starting at a pressure difference of < 3bar above the valve, the control behaviour is increasingly unlinear. The possible maximum flow quantities strongly decrease and partly amount to merely 1/10 of the calculated value. In extreme cases, the flow is even 0.
