Acid resistant orifice plates are needed when measuring the flow of strong hot acids via differential pressure. Because the measured flowrate is dependent on a consistent geometry of the orifice plate, it is essential that he dimensions are maintained and not changing due to corrosion from strong acids and chemicals.

At Ultramet CPT we provide the most corrosion resistant orifice plates available to industry with the unmatched corrosion resistance of tantalum metal but at a fraction of the costs.  With our technology we grow a tantalum diffusion surface that simply eliminates corrosion from the  strongest acids like sulfuric acid (H2SO4), hydrochloric acid (HCl), nitric acid, acetic acid and other strong corrosive acids and aggressive chemicals.
