What Are Orifice Flanges?

Orifice flanges are used to hold an orifice plate in place within a pipeline. The flange set features pressure taps (also called jack screws) that measure the pressure difference across the orifice plate, which is critical for calculating flow rate. Orifice flanges are designed to be leak-proof, ensuring accurate measurements and reliable performance.

Key Features and Advantages

Precision Flow Measurement

Enables accurate monitoring of fluid and gas flow rates.
Compatible with differential pressure flow meters.

Leak-Proof Design

Engineered to provide a secure seal for reliable readings.
Eliminates the risk of leaks during operation.

Versatility

Compatible with various pipe sizes and pressure ratings.
Suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.

Types of Orifice Flanges

Raised Face (RF) Orifice Flanges

Features a raised gasket surface for enhanced sealing.
Common in chemical and petrochemical industries.

Ring-Type Joint (RTJ) Orifice Flanges

Includes a groove for a metal ring gasket, ensuring high-pressure sealing.
Ideal for applications in the oil and gas sector

Flat Face (FF) Orifice Flanges

Provides a flat gasket surface for full-face contact.
Suitable for low-pressure applications.

Applications Across Industries

Oil and Gas

Critical for flow measurement in pipelines and refineries.
Ensures accurate monitoring of hydrocarbons and gases.

Chemical Processing

Used in chemical reactors and pipelines for precise fluid control.
Withstands corrosive environments and high pressures.
