The OP Series ceramic restriction orifice plates are ideal for reducing pressure and/or flow in piping systems, and are also effective in reducing or completely eliminating cavitation downstream of control valves. They feature a solid silicon carbide ceramic insert enclosed in a durable stainless steel housing.
Features
- Silicon carbide ceramic is the only wetted component in the process
- Abrasion and wear resistant
- Corrosion-resistant
- Unaffected by cavitation
- ±0.002” bore tolerance
- Temporary metallic orifice inserts may be provided for commissioning and start-up
