Molded orifices are the simplest method of flow control and are one of Air Logic's best-selling product lines. They work on the principal of Flow Restriction with the orifice diameter being identified in the part number and by color codes assigned to each orifice size. In addition to orifice diameter, Air Logic controls many smaller factors that have an impact on the total restriction of the orifice. This is why Air Logic's orifices are trusted to provide accurate and reliable flow performance across a variety of different markets. All of the Air Logics products are precision molded, assembled and tested in America.

Barbed connections are a clean, time tested and cost efficient method of connection. The hoop strength of the tube holds around the barbed fitting. Air Logic's first barb is free of a parting line to create a good seal, additional barbs increase holding force for tube retention. Barbed connections are free of lubrication or thread sealant used in other styles of connection. Simply push the tube over the barb and the connection is complete. Straight ports are generally used with 1/16" ID tubing, but may also be used in a captured design with an external O-ring seal (not included). Orifices are Factory tested in the direction marked on the product. The product will function in either direction, but using the product in the indicated direction will improve accuracy of the flow control. Orifices are non-adjustable and tamperproof method of flow control. Orifices are sometimes called Flow Restrictors, Snubbers, Pneumatic resistors, Flow reducers, Flow dampeners. Applications include all types of miniature, pneumatic, or fluidic systems (examples: coffee makers, gas analyzers, medical beds, and printing systems). |
