Engineering Services Flow-Lin provides numerous services for our customers including bore calculations, flow-versus-differential curves, temperature/pressure correction curves, cavitation analysis, and laboratory flow calibrations. Our engineering department welcomes the challenge presented by complicated flow problems found in liquids, steam, and gases. We also offer computer software for engineers to run bore calculations for orifice plates, flow nozzles, or venturi tubes (U.S. or S.I. units). The software uses the latest ASME and ISO references to ensure the best calculation accuracy. |

Flow-Lin bores and sands its orifice plates to comply to the latest ASME, ISO, ISA, and AGA recommendations. Paddle type plates are for use with orifice flange unions, while universal type plates are for use in orifice fittings and plate holders. In addition to concentric sharp-edged bored plates, we also can provide plates with eccentric, segmental, or quadrant-edged bores. For flow restriction, we design multi-stage orifice assemblies to minimize noise and eliminate cavitations. Virtually all sizes and materials are available to meet your needs and applications. |

Flange-tap orifice flanges provide an economical and accurate means of flow measurement. We offer them in welding neck, slip-on, socket weld, and threaded type using all materials in all sizes. These orifice flanges meet the recommended tolerances of ASME, AGA, and ANSI. We furnish them with stud bolts, nuts, jackscrews, and gaskets. For the ANSI 150# rating, we can provide corner-tap orifice flanges to reduce weight and cost. |

Flow-Lin designs and manufactures its flow nozzles in accordance with ASME and ISO recommendations to ensure a maximum accuracy in flow measurement. They are available in flanged, weld-in, and holding-ring types using pipe-tap or throat-tap designs for line size up to 24". Standard materials are carbon steel, chrom-moly, and stainless steel. |

Flow-Lin low loss flow tubes offer the ultimate in simplicity and efficiency while allowing the lowest permanent pressure loss. These flow tubes also still provide high accuracy and wide rangeability. They are ideal for water and sewage treatment plants where low pressure loss is critical. The standard construction uses carbon steel with a stainless steel or bronze throat liner. Furthermore, we construct these tubes as a flange-end, weld-end, or insert type. Laboratory calibration is available when our customers demand extremely high accuracy. |

Our venturi tubes can measure the flow of almost all liquids, steam, and gases. We design and fabricate them using ASME and ISO recommendations to produce a specified differential for a designed flow rate to ensure a low permanent pressure loss, a wide rangeability, and an extremely high accuracy. Furthermore, flange-end, weld-end, or insert type venturis can be provided in carbon steel, chrom-moly, stainless steel, or other materials on request for line sizes 1/2" up to 60". |

Our meter runs offer the ultimate accuracy in flow meter sections. We combine concentricity of pipe, quality of welds, high tolerances of flanges, and precision machining of primary devices for reliable measurement. Flow-Lin can also fabricate meter runs to meet AGA or ASME Power Test Code (PTC-6) requirements |
