Description
  1. Function: The screw serves to secure the pitot seal in place within the pitot tube assembly. It ensures that the seal remains tightly fitted, preventing leaks and maintaining accurate fluid velocity measurements.
  2. Design: The screw typically features a threaded design that allows it to be inserted into the pitot tube housing and tightened to compress the pitot seal secure. It may have a hexagonal or Phillips head for easy installation using common tools.
  3. Material: Screws for pitot seals are usually made from materials that offer corrosion resistance and durability, such as stainless steel or brass. This ensures reliable performance and longevity in fluid measurement applications.
  4. Size and Specification: Pitot screws are manufactured to precise dimensions and specifications to ensure compatibility with the pitot tube assembly. They must be correctly sized to fit the threaded holes in the pitot tube housing and provide a secure seal.
  5. Installation: Installing the screw involves threading it into the designated hole in the pitot tube housing and tightening it to compress the pitot seal. Care must be taken not to overtighten the screw, as this could damage the seal or the housing.
