Restriction Orifice Standards/Specifications
Restriction Orifice Standards/Specifications
(OP)
I'm looking for standards/specification numbers that cover the calculations for, and manufacturing of, 'restriction orifices'(and not 'flow orifice plates').
Are they covered by the same standards/specifications for flow orifice plates e.g., ISO 5167, AGA Report No.3, API 14.3.2 or something else ?
I have searched through the above and they seem to be more 'flow orifice plate' specific and I cannot find any mention of restriction orifices.
Thanks in advance.

Can I ask where your info of 1000"wc dp came from ?
My reason for asking is that I'm preparing RO data sheets and I want to put references/specs as notes to the vendors.
Where would I find the info that would tell me what RO plate thickness to use ?
