Use & Benefits for Orifice Plates
- ✓Flow Measurement: Measure fluid flow rate in pipelines by constricting the flow path to create a pressure drop — flow rate can be measured using Bernoulli's equation.
- ✓Cost-Effective: Simple, inexpensive, and reliable compared to other flow devices.
- ✓Easy Installation & Maintenance: Easily integrated into pipelines with minimal upkeep and quick replacement.
- ✓Wide Compatibility: Suitable for liquids, gases, and steam across oil & gas, chemical processing, water treatment, and HVAC.
- ✓Standardized Design: Meets API and ISO guidelines for consistency and reliability.
