Quarter Circle Orifice Plate
A quadrant-edged orifice plate suited to viscous fluids and lower Reynolds number applications where a standard sharp-edged orifice would not provide stable measurement.

BETFLOW Orifice Assembly (BF-OP)
Orifice Plates are one of the most commonly used flow elements in the industry for measuring flow of fluids through a pipeline. Inserted into the pipeline, they induce a constriction that accelerates the fluid and produces a pressure differential between the upstream and downstream sections. This pressure differential (∆P) is used to calculate the flow rate. Orifice Plates cover a wide range of process fluids/ applications. It provides a good level of accuracy at a lower cost & has a longer life with less maintenance requirements.
Bhavyam offers all flow elements under the BETFLOW range of products. Design & Engineering done as per Global Standards to meet challenging process demands. Manufacturing all flow metering solutions as per ISO 5167/ ASME MFC 3M/ BS 1042/ AGA 3/ AGA 8/ RW Miller standards.
