INSPECTION & TESTS

> Hydrostatic testing to check the tightness
and the strong performance of restriction
orifices at required pressure levels Design and manufacture
> 100% dimensional control
> Other non-destructive tests if required :
Dye-penetrant, X-rays, PMI, US

OUR PRODUCTS : FEATURES AND BENEFITS

> Used to manage pressure drops or to restrict flow rates in a pipe work
Flow velocities with single hole orifice plates
> Multi-stage and/or multi-holes restriction orifices used for high pressure and/or high noise
applications.
When the desired pressure drop cannot be achieved by a single plate, a multi-stage restriction orifice During the design stage, calculations are performed to avoid cavitation and choked flow at

its maximum capacity. The orifice plate can be a single-bore or a multi-bore plate if the noise level is critical.

NOISE LEVEL
Limited to 85 dB (A) according to international
noise standards.

Multi-holes restriction orifices are

implemented to meet this demand :
increase the number of orifices in
Simple hole restriction orifice Multi-holes restriction orifice order to reduce the noise level. Flow velocities with multi holes orifice plates
