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.Đọc phân tích →
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.Đọc phân tích →
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.Đọc phân tích →
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.Đọc phân tích →
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.Đọc phân tích →
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.Đọc phân tích →
