EMCO - Model ISB/1 -Orifice Plate
The EMCO Orifice Plate is used as a primary element in flow measurement of liquid, gas and steam applications according to the differential pressure principle. According to this working principle, the orifice plate creates a flow restriction in the pipeline to allow measurement of the resulting pressure drop and flow rate. Our orifice plates have been tested and tried for over 50 years and measure up to the highest industry and compliance standards. The Orifice Plate Series ISB/1 is a single bore plate for mounting between raised face flanges.
