Compact flanges are specialized pipe flanges designed to minimize space and weight while maximizing strength and reliability. They feature a compact profile with a sealing face that integrates into the flange itself, eliminating the need for separate gaskets. This design decreases the overall dimensions and weight of the flange assembly compared to traditional flanges, making compact flanges ideal for applications where space is limited or weight considerations are critical.

Overall Dimensions Of Compact Flange Dimensions
Compact flanges generally have a smaller outer diameter compared to standard flanges of the same nominal pipe size (NPS). For example, a compact flange with an NPS 4 size may have an outer diameter of approximately 7 inches (177.8 mm), whereas a standard ANSI flange of the same size could have a larger outer diameter.
The overall height of compact flanges is minimized to reduce the space required for installation. For instance, a compact flange with an NPS 4 size might have an overall height of around 1.5 inches (38.1 mm), ensuring a compact profile while maintaining structural integrity and pressure containment.
The bolt circle diameter refers to the diameter of the circle passing through the center of all bolt holes in the flange. Compact flanges typically have a reduced BCD compared to standard flanges, optimizing bolt alignment and reducing the footprint of the flange assembly.
Sealing Face Dimensions Of Compact Flange Dimensions
Sealing Face Dimensions Of Compact Flange Dimensions
The sealing face of a compact flange is typically machined directly into the flange itself, creating a smooth and flat surface that mates with the sealing face of the adjoining flange or equipment. This sealing surface area is crucial for preventing leaks and maintaining pressure containment.
Width And Depth Of Sealing Groove
Compact flanges feature a sealing groove that accommodates the compression of the metal-to-metal contact between the sealing faces. The dimensions of this groove, including its width and depth, are designed to ensure sufficient contact pressure and sealing performance under operating conditions.
Bolt Hole Pattern And Size Of Compact Flange Dimensions
Bolt Hole Size
Compact flanges typically accommodate standard bolt sizes such as 3/4 inch (19 mm) or 1 inch (25 mm) diameter bolts. The size of the bolt hole is critical for ensuring sufficient bolt strength and load distribution to withstand operating pressures and forces.
Number of Bolt Holes
Compact flanges typically have fewer bolt holes compared to traditional flanges of the same nominal size. This reduction in bolt holes contributes to the compact design and efficient use of space.
Compact Flanges In Different Sizes
Small Sizes (NPS 1/2 to NPS 2)
Compact flanges in smaller sizes are typically used in instrumentation lines, small-bore piping systems, and applications where space efficiency is crucial. These sizes often range from NPS 1/2 (DN 15) to NPS 2 (DN 50), catering to lower flow rates and pressure requirements in compact environments.
Medium Sizes (NPS 3 to NPS 8)
Medium-sized compact flanges cover a broader range of industrial applications, including oil and gas pipelines, petrochemical plants, and refineries. Sizes commonly range from NPS 3 (DN 80) to NPS 8 (DN 200), providing effective sealing and pressure containment while optimizing space and weight compared to traditional flanges.
Large Sizes (NPS 10 and above)
Compact flanges in larger sizes are utilized in critical applications such as offshore platforms, subsea pipelines, and large-scale industrial facilities. These sizes typically start from NPS 10 (DN 250) and can extend to NPS 24 (DN 600) or even larger, offering robust performance under high-pressure and challenging operating conditions.
