Orifice Plate Assemblies with RTJ Holder

General Instruments Orifice Plate Assemblies With RTJ Holder

GIC is the leading Orifice Plate Assemblies With RTJ Holder Manufacturer in India providing reliable solutions for accurate pressure measurement to process industry worldwide.

The Plate Holder Assembly is a combination of plate holder and an orifice plate designed for ring tongue joint (RTJ) flanges. The plate holder has a function of holding the orifice plate and also a function as a gasket to prevent leakage of the process fluid. The plate holder has a oval or octagonal ring for mounting between ring tongue joint flanges. This metallic sealing system is applicable to a fluid of high temperature and high pressure. The pressure tapping system normally is of the flange tap type.

Orifice plate is screwed to the plate holder. Generally the plate holder is of soft iron material. The Orifice plate is available in standard material such as SS316, SS304, SS316L, Monel, Hastelloy-C, etc. Other materials are available on request. The plate holder along with the orifice plate can be also machined from one piece.

RTJ holder material is selected so that the RTJ holder hardness is less than that of flange hardness.

Routine tests:

a) PMI Test
b) Calibration
c) NACE
d) HIC Test
