Orifice Flange

What is an Orifice Flange?

An Orifice Flange is a specialized type of flange used in conjunction with orifice plates to measure the flow rate of liquids or gases in a pipeline. It has pressure tap holes drilled on the flange face, allowing for differential pressure readings across an orifice plate installed between the flanges. These readings are used to calculate the flow rate, making the orifice flange a crucial component in flow metering systems. Typically used in pairs, these flanges are held together by bolts and gaskets, creating a tight seal around the orifice plate.

Key Features of Orifice Flange:

  • Integrated Pressure Taps: Pre-drilled holes for pressure measurement simplify installation and reduce the need for additional components.
  • Accurate Flow Measurement: Designed for precise differential pressure readings across the orifice plate.
  • Ease of Maintenance: Bolted design allows for easy removal and inspection of the orifice plate.
  • Variety of Standards: Available in ANSI, ASME, DIN, and other standards to suit different pipeline requirements.
  • Material Versatility: Manufactured from carbon steel, stainless steel, and other alloys for compatibility with various media.
  • Compatible with Gaskets & Bolts: Designed to work with standard piping components for a secure seal.

Common Uses of Orifice Flange:

  • Flow Measurement Systems: Widely used in pipelines to determine fluid flow rates using differential pressure.
  • Oil & Gas Industry: Ideal for measuring crude oil, natural gas, and refined products.
  • Chemical Processing Plants: Monitors flow of reactive and corrosive chemicals.
  • Water Treatment Facilities: Measures flow in clean and wastewater lines.
  • Power Generation: Used in steam and water pipelines for performance monitoring.
  • Pharmaceutical & Food Industries: Supports hygienic flow measurement with proper material selection.
