Altecnic Flow Limiter 1/2 FxM 12 Litres/Min Red

The Altecnic 1/2 FxM Flow Limiter is a flow regulation device rated at 12 litres per minute, colour-coded red for identification. It is fitted on the 1/2 inch female x male connection and restricts the volume of water passing through the circuit to a fixed rate. It forms part of the Altecnic flow regulation range used on boiler and domestic water systems.

• Delivered flow rate at the outlet is lower or less consistent than the rated 12 litres per minute
• Noticeable drop in hot water output at taps or outlets served by the circuit
• Uneven or fluctuating flow between outlets on the same system
• Visible scale, debris or corrosion around the limiter body or connection
• Leakage or weeping at the female or male threaded joint

• Confirm the connection is 1/2 inch female x male before fitting
• Check that 12 litres per minute matches the flow rate required by the appliance or circuit
• Verify the red colour coding against the rate specified in the manufacturer's documentation
• Inspect the mating threads and seals for damage so the new limiter seats correctly
