A Socket Weld Flange, abbreviated as SWRF, is a type of flange that is welded directly to the pipe’s end. It has a socket-like connection for the pipe to fit into, providing a strong and leak-resistant joint.
The orifice size is determined based on the specific flow measurement requirements and the type of fluid being measured. It is crucial for accurate flow rate calculations.
An Orifice Flange is designed for measuring the flow rate of gases or liquids through a pipe. It features a small hole (orifice) that can be equipped with a flow meter or other measurement devices.
The size of a Spectacle Blind Flange is determined based on the pipe size and pressure rating. It should match the pipe’s dimensions and withstand the operating conditions.
Spectacle Blind Flanges are primarily used in pipelines where isolation or maintenance is required. They are common in oil and gas industries and refineries.
A Spectacle Blind Flange is a special type of flange used to temporarily or permanently block off a pipe. It consists of two metal discs connected by a handle, allowing one disc to be rotated to block the flow.
Slip On Flanges are easy to align and install, making them a cost-effective choice for less demanding applications. However, they may not be suitable for high-pressure or high-temperature environments.
Slip On Flanges, abbreviated as SORF, have a flat face and a bore that fits over the pipe. They are easy to install by sliding them onto the pipe and welding them in place.
