Component Specifications

Definition
A fluid passage is a critical internal component of a header body designed to transport liquids or gases with controlled pressure, velocity, and direction. It features specific geometries (diameter, length, cross-section) to minimize turbulence, pressure drops, and contamination while ensuring efficient flow distribution to connected systems.
Working Principle
Operates on fluid dynamics principles, utilizing pressure differentials to move fluids through the passage. The design ensures laminar or controlled turbulent flow to reduce energy loss and maintain system efficiency, often incorporating smooth internal surfaces and optimized bends to prevent cavitation and erosion.
Materials
Typically made from corrosion-resistant materials: stainless steel (e.g., AISI 316L), brass, aluminum alloys, or engineered plastics (e.g., PTFE, PEEK) depending on fluid compatibility, pressure, and temperature requirements.
Technical Parameters
  • Diameter 5-50 mm
  • Flow Capacity 0.1-500 L/min
  • Pressure Rating Up to 100 bar
  • Surface Roughness Ra ≤ 0.8 μm
  • Temperature Range -20°C to 200°C
Standards
ISO 1179, DIN 2353
