Indexing accuracy with flow dividers

In a predetermined valve this is a factor of the size of the flow: the smaller it is, the greater the deviation from the desired value. (Figure T 6).

Flow dividers based on displacement units (e.g. piston or gear motors) can be used to produce higher indexing accuracies than valves.
