 Features:
• Long Term Reliability
• Widely Accepted
• Low Installed Cost
• Well Documented
• Flexible Designs for Different Applications
Description
Flow nozzles are often used in flow measurement due to their reliable
performance and tolerance to extremes in process and environmental
conditions. They offer advantages over orifice plates in that they
require less
upstream piping and incur lower permanent pressure loss. Accuracy
can
be sustained indefinitely since there are no sharp edges to wear.
Wyatt Engineering flow nozzles are used in various industries,
particularly for steam flow in the power sector. Due to their long
documented
history, flow nozzle designs and installation requirements are known
and recognized by national and international standards organizations.
Application
Wyatt Engineering flow nozzles and metering runs are used in a
variety of applications where extremes of pressure, temperature,
or the
aggressive nature of the fluid being metered render other metering
technologies unfeasible. Because of their long-term reliability
and ease of
installation, Wyatt nozzle products are commonly used as the differential
pressure device for the measurement of the flow of fluids, especially
for water,
steam, air, and gases.
Common installations include:
- Power Plants
- Refineries
- Petrochemical Plants
- Chemical Processing Facilities
- Steam and Condensate Flows
Documented Accuracy
Unlike most providers of flow nozzles products, Wyatt Engineering
has extensive flow calibration data that reflects experience and
depth of knowledge. Industry, national, and international codes
can provide guidance to manufacturers, but only successful tests
can assure the flow measurement results that are necessary in today’s
market.
Wyatt Engineering also provides application guidance to support
the proper
use of its equipment: Whether to use a flanged nozzle or a weld-in
design;
whether a metering run with a flow straightener is necessary; whether
the use
of a PTC-6 test section is warranted, or if another metering technology
is required.
