Dual Metering Flow Control Valves
The Lee Company’s dual metering flow control valves are two-way restrictors that allow a designer to specify a different metered flow rate in each direction. These valves are ideal for high-pressure hydraulic applications with system pressures up to 5000 psi. They feature all stainless steel construction for durability and long life and are available in 0.187 and 0.281 inch diameter models. Each Lee Dual Metering Flow Control is 100% tested in both flow directions to ensure reliable, consistent performance.
Because each direction can be specified differently, our dual metering flow controls can achieve a nearly infinite combination of metered flow rates. As such, all of these components are supplied as custom items to meet the specific needs of an application.

Flow Fuses
Lee flow fuses are individually designed to meet custom requirements. The valve design functions as a normally open check valve. As the flow rate increases beyond a specified value across the valve, a poppet shuts against the valve seat and stops the flow. Valve materials are typically stainless steel but can be tailored to specific requirements. Lastly, our flow fuses are suitable for system pressures up to 15,000 psi.
Insert-style flow fuses are available in 0.187, 0.281, and 0.375 inch diameters with the fused flow direction available in forward and reverse. Cartridge-style flow fuses are available in 0.295, 0.483, 0.798, and 0.989 inch diameters. A zero leak version using an elastomeric seal is also available.

Bypass Valves
Known for their durability, longevity, and small size, Lee bypass valves are designed to shunt flow across an actuator piston when the system pressure is either shut off or lost. They are normally open, with a hydraulically actuated pilot-to-close feature. These stainless steel valves are available in a 0.375 inch diameter insert for system pressures up to 4000 psi, have a maximum restriction of 70 Lohms when fully open, and weigh only 16 grams each. Similar to Lee shuttle valves, Lee bypass valves include a polyimide compression seal to ensure there is no external leakage across the three-port design when properly installed.
PRI/Check Valves
Lee PRI®/Chek® Valves combine the function of a reverse flow pressure relief valve in parallel with the function of a check valve with free flow in the forward direction into one easily installed insert. The relief valve function features a rugged Tungsten Carbide ball and a 440C seat for durability and long life. The remaining components are constructed entirely of stainless steel. The valves are available in a range of relief flow cracking pressures for system pressures up to 5000 psi.
The 281 PRI/Chek Valves are available with or without integral safety screen filters. The unscreened version has a maximum restriction of 300 Lohms in the free flow direction and is available in nine different standard relief flow cracking pressures up to 3600 psid. The screened version has a maximum restriction of 550 Lohms in the free flow direction and is available in 15 different standard relief flow cracking pressures up to 5900 psid. The 375 PRI/Chek Valve has a maximum restriction of 220 Lohms in the free flow direction and is available in seven different standard relief flow cracking pressures up to 5400 psid.
