Imperial nameplate
An Imperial nameplate is a label affixed to a product, such as a machine or component, indicating its specifications according to the Imperial measurement system (inches, pounds, etc.). It provides key details like size, capacity, model number, or pressure ratings, helping users identify and verify the correct equipment for their needs. Unlike metric labels, Imperial nameplates use customary units common in the United States and some other regions. They are essential for safety, maintenance, and compliance, ensuring proper use and reference when selecting, installing, or servicing the equipment.
