Installation
Before installation, the orifice plate must be kept clean and protected against corrosion and physical damage. It is also important that you pay careful attention to to the sharp edge of the plate. Once ensured that it is clean, install the orifice plate carefully such that the orifice bore aligns with the centre of the pipeline. Tap location varies depending on whether it is used for liquid, gas or steam. It is not supplied with any safety devices and must not be used for higher pressure, than stated on the name plate. The pipe system must therefore be equipped with a safety device. However, this type of primary element requires no special maintenance.
- Predictable pressure loss
- Simple construction
- Proven design
- Cost-effective
