PTC 6 Flow Nozzle Meter

Our PTC flow nozzle meters are high-performance differential-producing flow measurement devices used as the primary element for steam turbine acceptance tests. The meters are specifically manufactured in accord with the requirements of the ASME Performance Test Code 6 (PTC6) for steam turbines.

Nozzles are available in flanged and weld-in styles, and feature interior surfaces that are precision machined for cylindricality and a hydraulically-smooth surface. For weld-in flow nozzles, a code-recommended inspection port with a removable, contoured plug is available.
