A system simply cannot work as expected unless every component can be relied upon. A quality orifice flow restrictor is a cornerstone of any system that uses one. You need to make sure that whatever it is that you’re distributing through your system, it’s being distributed at the proper rate. A good orifice flow restrictor makes that possible.
What’s It For?
Used in water distribution systems as well as other devices and systems, an orifice flow restrictor controls how much water, fluid, or gas is being released through a hose, tube, pipe or nozzle. This is vital in any system where precision is a must. You may not be concerned with how much water is coming through a garden hose to fill a kiddie pool, for instance, but in a chemistry lab, you absolutely do not want too much gas coming out through your Bunsen burner.
In other words, it is one of the most important components in any system that relies on one. You need to make sure that you have the correct restrictor for the job. This will, of course, vary from one project to the next.
Ready-made or Custom-order?
If you cannot find a restrictor that suits your exact specs, it is generally wiser to look into custom ordering than to try and pivot the project itself. A good restrictor can make the difference between a system that does exactly what you planned for it to do and a compromised system that doesn’t quite serve its own primary purpose.
In short, it’s all about precision. A restrictor allows you to focus your system like a laser, releasing exactly as much water, fluid, or gas as you need. Make sure that when you select your orifice flow restrictor for your project that you are getting exactly what you need to bring your plan together.
