The Riptide PRV Venturi Tube is a precision flow-measurement component designed for controlled hydrant and PRV testing applications where repeatable, chart-based flow verification is required. Built as the core sensing element of the Riptide PRV testing setup, it produces a predictable differential pressure across the Venturi that can be measured with a compatible manometer and converted to flow using the appropriate flow chart.
Engineered for field use, the venturi integrates inline with standard 2½-inch hose and test configurations and is intended to be used with a differential pressure instrument and controlled discharge equipment (such as a valve and diffuser/gang drain) to safely dial in and document test conditions. Its precision-machined internal profile helps reduce turbulence and maintain consistent readings over a wide operating range, supporting stable, repeatable results from test to test.
Available as a standalone component, the Riptide PRV Venturi Tube can be purchased separately as a replacement, a spare for uninterrupted testing, or to support multiple test setups without duplicating the full kit. Rugged, portable, and purpose-built for professional water system testing, it’s an essential building block for technicians who want dependable PRV flow verification with streamlined, modular equipment.
