Valve World reports that VERSA expanded its XIBC intrinsically safe solenoid line with a 316L stainless-steel enclosure, ‘ia’ protection for Zone 1 valve control, pressure ratings up to 175 psi depending on valve series, and an optional sealing configuration down to -51°C.
RFQs should align hazardous-area certification and the required intrinsic-safety barrier or isolator, IP66/67 protection, valve-series pressure limits, 24 VDC/0.8 W power, M20 conduit interface, temperature range and actuator/solenoid compatibility; an ‘intrinsically safe’ label does not replace loop-level verification.Lire l’analyse →
Valve World examines polymer performance in cryogenic valve seals and the reliability requirements across the LNG value chain.
Cryogenic-valve RFQs should separately specify temperature range, cycling, material compatibility, leakage class, seal life and cryogenic test evidence.Lire l’analyse →
Worley won three energy-center contracts, creating potential demand for process valves, control valves and packaged equipment.
Project valve procurement should lock down media, pressure-temperature limits, valve class, actuator fail position and inspection-document matrices early, by package.Lire l’analyse →
Technip Energies won an offshore engineering contract from L&T, highlighting demand for corrosion-resistant valves, compact actuation and traceable quality files.
Offshore RFQs should address seawater and chloride exposure, material system, protection rating, weight limits and inspection hold points beyond generic land-based specs.Lire l’analyse →
Metso won a €25 million equipment order for the Yenipazar mine, supporting demand for wear- and corrosion-resistant process valves and actuation.
Slurry-service valve RFQs should state solids content, particle size, wear allowance, lining or alloy, flushing and replacement intervals rather than using clean-water specifications.Lire l’analyse →
SMC expanded the EX600 valve-automation platform for distributed control, status feedback and field-device integration.
Automated-valve procurement should align communication protocol, I/O count, feedback diagnostics, network redundancy, area certification and spares compatibility, not just body price.Lire l’analyse →
L'association technique à but non lucratif de la robinetterie et des raccords annonce une révision concernant les matériaux, la conception et les documents d'achat.
La demande de prix doit préciser l'édition et la date de publication requises afin d'écarter les documents remplacés.Lire l’analyse →
