Reducer
The Reducer is an essential pipe fitting designed to connect pipes of different diameters, ensuring a smooth transition in fluid flow systems. Available in Concentric (aligned centers) and Eccentric (offset centers) types, reducers optimize flow efficiency, minimize turbulence, and maintain system pressure.
Features & Specifications
Size Range: ½" to 48" (DN15 to DN1200) or larger for industrial applications.
Custom Sizes: Tailored to project-specific requirements.
Material
Carbon Steel: High strength for heavy-duty industrial use (e.g., ASTM A234 WPB).
Stainless Steel: Corrosion-resistant (e.g., 304/316L), ideal for chemical/food processing.
Alloy Steel: Heat-resistant for high-temperature pipelines (e.g., ASTM A234 WP11/WP22).
Duplex Steel: Superior corrosion resistance (e.g., UNS S31803) for offshore/oil & gas.
PVC/CPVC: Lightweight, cost-effective for low-pressure water/waste systems.
Performance Advantages:
Flow Efficiency: Gradual diameter change reduces pressure drop and turbulence.
Durability: Robust materials withstand high pressure (up to 9000 PSI for steel) and extreme temperatures.
Leak-proof: Seamless/welded designs ensure tight connections (standards: ASME B16.9, ANSI B16.11).
Versatility: Compatible with flanged, threaded, or butt-welded joints.
Applications
Oil & Gas: Pipeline systems, refineries.
Chemical Plants: Corrosive fluid handling.
Water Treatment: Pump inlets/outlets, gravity flow systems (eccentric reducers prevent air pockets).
HVAC & Plumbing: Adjust pipe diameters in heating/cooling networks.
Power Generation: High-temperature steam lines.
