Will heat or cold temperatures affect the flow rate?
Answer
Not if you're using our perma STAR VARIO. It is temperature independent in its discharge, and rated for 14° F to 122° F.
Our gas units' (CLASSIC and FUTURA) flow rates are based on a 68° F ambient temperature. Consistent warmer or colder temperature will speed up or slow down the flow rate. You may have to adjust the units based on your operating temperature. For example, if your bearings require a perma 3-month unit and your average temperature is over 100°, then you simply select a perma 6-month unit and that will regulate the flow equal to a Perma 3. Do just the opposite in colder temperatures.
