The Venturi tube by Tecnomatic

Acquired by Terranova Instruments in 2022, Tecnomatic, founded in 1962, was the first European company dedicated to the design and production of flow and temperature measurement devices serving the Oil & Gas market, Onshore and Offshore platforms, chemical and petrochemical plants, aerospace industry, electrical and steel plants.

It is the long and unique Italian tradition of process engineering that positions Tecnomatic as the ideal global partner for the production of high-quality Venturi tubes. Selecting Tecnomatic is not simply buying a product, but investing in decades of specialized expertise and constant commitment to international quality standards. The ability to customize Venturi tubes, based on specific requirements of materials, dimensions or types of connections, ensures that each product is meticulously customized to meet the needs of users. The Venturi tube is a device designed to measure flow rates in closed conduits, perhaps among the various technologies the most appreciated for its ability to minimize permanent pressure loss and at the same time to ensure continuity of measurement and operation regardless of the type of fluid measured. The Venturi tube works by restricting the flow of a liquid or gas through a narrow section, known as a choke, which physically creates a pressure drop. This pressure difference is used to calculate the flow rate with the aid of a calibrated differential pressure transmitter, resulting in typically exceptional measurement accuracy.

The wide selection of material options available allows you to choose based on your specific operating requirements; whether it is welded plate for large diameter applications, forged materials for high pressure environments or machined from solid, Tecnomatic guarantees both durability and reliability, even in the most complex construction types.

A standards-compliant device

The device is designed in compliance to standards such as ISO 5167 and ASME MFC-3M and its reliability makes it an indispensable tool in various fields, representing an optimal solution for a very wide range of industrial applications. The main applications are in sectors such as Oil & Gas, Petrochemical and Power, environments where accurate flow measurement is essential. Whether measuring gas flow in refineries or regulating water flow in power plants, the instrument stands out for its robustness and precision.

With numerous options including calibration possibilities, pressure taps and customized features and installation assistance, Tecnomatic Venturi tubes represent a reliable and accurate solution for industries that require precise flow measurement.
