Sensus 143-62-023-42 Orifice

The Sensus 143-62-023-42 Orifice is a precision-engineered gas regulator component designed for exact flow control within the Sensus 143-80 service regulator series. This 1/4" orifice is critical for technicians managing natural gas pressure regulation in residential, commercial, and small industrial applications. Crafted from high-grade materials, this replacement orifice offers superior resistance to erosion and chemical wear, ensuring a stable flow coefficient and consistent downstream pressure. Standardizing on genuine Sensus gas division parts ensures that the internal relief valve and diaphragm assembly operate within their engineered parameters. For professional installation, this 1/4 inch regulator orifice must be torqued to 50-60 ft-lbs using a thin-wall hex socket to maintain a gas-tight seal and prevent seat damage. Whether you are performing routine maintenance on a domestic service regulator or configuring a burner system, this orifice provides the accuracy required for optimal combustion efficiency and system safety.

• Precision Flow Regulation: Engineered 1/4" diameter ensures accurate gas delivery for Sensus 143-80 models.
• Industrial-Grade Durability: Robust construction resists corrosion from natural gas, propane, and non-corrosive process gases.
• Optimal Pressure Stability: Minimizes local turbulence to maintain steady outlet pressures across varying inlet conditions.
• Standardized Compatibility: Direct OEM replacement for 143-62-023-42, ensuring seamless integration with existing regulator bodies.

• What is the proper torque for installing a Sensus orifice? Professional guidelines require these orifices to be tightened to 50-60 ft-lbs with appropriate thread sealant to ensure a leak-free connection.
• Which regulator models are compatible with this 1/4" orifice? This part is specifically designed for the Sensus 143 series, including the 143-80-1, 143-80-2 with internal relief, and the 143-80-6 LPCO models.
• Can this orifice be used for propane applications? Yes, the 143-62-023-42 orifice is compatible with natural gas, LPG, propane, and air, provided the regulator is correctly calibrated for the specific gravity of the gas.
