Abstract
A flow rate regulator () having a regulator housing (), wherein said regulator housing () has an outer circumferential edge region () that can be placed on an end circumferential edge region () of a jet regulator () and/or of a sieve () and including a central annular gap (), in which an annular throttle body () made of elastic material is present, bounding a control gap () between same and an inner and/or outer circumferential wall () of the annular gap () having a control profile, wherein the open flow-through cross-section of said control gap is changeable under the pressure of the flowing water. The flow rate regulator () according to the invention is characterized in that said regulator has a shell-shaped regulator housing (), the outer circumferential edge region () of which is designed as a radially outwardly protruding ring flange, and in that the inner shell chamber () of the regulator housing () open to the outlet side is dimensioned for receiving a sub-region of the sieve () protruding past the end circumferential edge region () of the jet regulator ().
