ABSTRACT:
An adjustable orifice fitting carrier assembly for an orifice fitting having a receptacle and being interposed in a pipeline. The carrier assembly includes a carrier body receivable in the receptacle of the fitting to hold a flat, circular orifice disc having a center orifice therethrough, the orifice disc being perpendicular to the flow through the pipeline. A carrier holding plate is receivable in the receptacle and is in communication with the carrier body. An adjustment mechanism is provided to move the carrier body and the orifice disc in a first direction across the diameter of the pipeline while within the orifice fitting. An adjustment mechanism is also provided to move the carrier body and the orifice disc in a second direction across the diameter of the pipeline, perpendicular to the first direction, in order to concentrically align the center orifice with the axis of the pipeline.
