A flow control device (10) includes a connector (12) defining a first receiving formation (14) for receiving a first conduit, a second receiving formation (18) for receiving a second conduit and a cross member (22) separating the first receiving formation (14) and the second receiving formation (16). An orifice plate (24) is received in the cross member to control flow of fluid, in use, through the conduits received in the first and the second receiving formations (14, 18) of the connector (12), the orifice plate (24) defining at least one substantially frustoconical orifice (34).
