Sanitary Concentric Reducer
Product Details
Product Introduction
The diameter of the 3 to 2 tri-clamp reducer reduces towards the center, forming a conical cylindrical shape. Sanitary concentric reducers are commonly used in piping for vertical flow applications or as enlarging pipes when placed horizontally. It is not recommended to use reducers in a horizontal direction as liquid accumulation may occur. In such cases, it is better to use an eccentric reducer with one side laid flat. Sanitary welded concentric reducers have a lower potential for causing turbulence compared to end cap-type reducers.
Welded Joints (Joint Type: Reducer Joint)
Welded joints are components that connect pipes through welding, allowing fluids such as liquids, steam, and gases to flow through. Sanitary concentric reducers are widely used in various fields, including residential, power plants, natural gas and petrochemical plants, water treatment facilities, shipyards, and more. Welded joints include L-shaped elbows to change the direction of the pipeline, T-shaped tees to branch fluids, reducers to connect pipes of different diameters, and gaskets to prevent fluid and gas leaks. Since the diameters that can be connected, the types of fluids that can be used, and the internal pressures vary, it is essential to select materials and sizes based on the specific application.
Butt-welded 3 to 2 tri-clamp reducers are used to reduce or enlarge the pipe size at a given location. For welded sanitary concentric reducers, the openings of the fittings are aligned and centered. Generally, the size increase does not exceed two (or a maximum of three) sizes to avoid excessive pressure drop in the pipeline (if multiple reductions are necessary, they should be done gradually).
The stainless steel welded concentric reducer is designed with small and large diameters at both ends, connected by a conical transition section. This special type uses a welded structure.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between a concentric reducer and a reducer?
A: While this may seem complicated, it's actually quite simple. Concentric reducers reduce the pipe in the center. So, if you're looking at the reducer head-on, you can see the smaller section is formed in the direct center of the larger side. Eccentric reducers reduce the pipe to the side.
Q: Why do we use a concentric reducer in pump discharge?
A: Concentric Reducers are used in the discharge of the Pump. The concentric reducers will pass gracefully between the piping and the pump. The Concentric Reducers help in transporting abrasive liquids. They are useful in services where cavitations are present.
Q: What is the difference between swage and concentric reducer?
A: Difference between Concentric / Eccentric Reduction and Swage Nipple. The main difference is the way they are manufactured and their length dimensions. Both a concentric reducer (RC or CR) and a Swage Nipple are used to pass different pipe diameters.
Q: When to use concentric and eccentric reducers?
A: Concentric reducers are used where the pipework is vertically installed and at the discharge side of pumps. Eccentric reducers are more often used when the pipework lays on a pipe rack. Because of the flat side, aligning and securely mounting the pipes to the rack is easier.
