Application

N/A

  • Precision Flow Control – Gases or Liquids
  • Speed Controls – Cylinders and Actuators
  • Accurate Timing in Pneumatic or Hydraulic Circuits
  • Flow Restriction
  • Accurate Throttling
  • Snubbers - Gages and Instruments
  • Ultrasonic Sound Sources

Advantages

N/A

  • High Pressure Capability
  • Bi-directional Flow Compatibility

Air Flow Notes

Air Flow Notes

N/A Standard Conditions 70°F, 14.7 psia
SCFH – Standard Cu. Ft. Per Hour
SLPM – Standard Liters Per Minute
The Metal Orifice Air Flow data obtained with Type B restrictor.
Flow rates for other metal restrictors are essentially the same as for Type B.
The Metal Orifice Air Flow data supercedes previous publications.

Water Flow Notes

Water Flow Notes

N/A The Metal Orifice Water Flow data calculated based on the Cv for each orifice. Flow = Cv √ΔP. ΔP = differential pressure in psid. It is assumed that the region on either side of the orifice is fully flooded with no air pockets.

Dimensions

Orifice Diameter

N/A 0.027 in

Width Across Flats (Hex)

N/A 9/16 in

Total Length

N/A 1.38 in
