Manufacturing facilities use liquid piping systems for cooling, process support, washdown, recirculation, and utility service. When pressure drop and flow velocity are not managed correctly, cavitation can affect reliability in the systems that support production.
Manufacturing facilities often depend on utility and process-support systems that run continuously or under changing production conditions. Cooling, recirculation, washdown, service water, and other liquid systems can develop cavitation where pressure drop is concentrated.
Managing pressure reduction and energy dissipation can help reduce cavitation-related vibration, noise, and wear.
The Anti-Cavitate Orifice Plate™ helps manage flow, pressure drop, and cavitation behavior in a single fixed-geometry device.
Controlling how flow and pressure are reduced can lower noise levels generated within the system.
Managing the pressure drop helps mitigate cavitation that can damage pipes and downstream equipment.
The plate regulates flow rate to help the system operate within the intended design conditions.
