Flowrox control and shut-off pinch valves succeed in ore and water treatment plants in a Spanish mine

After seven years of implementation of Flowrox™ pinch valves in a concentration plant, customer remains satisfied with the cost savings combined with reliable operation and easy valve maintenance. All 330 pinch valves were installed in an extension of their ore and water treatment plant. The project basically consisted of duplicating the size of an existing plant.

The diverse role valves play in the chemical industry

The chemical industry is extremely diverse with more than 60,000 known products. Chemicals are typically split into basic categories including petrochemicals, agrochemicals, specialty chemicals, pharmaceuticals and bio-chemicals, and consumer products. Like all process industries, the chemical industry needs valves designed for safe, efficient and reliable process operation.

Butterfly valves

Neles™ butterfly valves are designed to truly optimize the efficiency of process operations by offering best-in-class valve capacity. They provide long-lasting tightness and industry-leading valve reliability, certified to SIL 3. Our product range includes both metal and soft-seated and rubber-lined butterfly valves.

Digital hydraulic concept reduces cost and increases reliability

By using digital hydraulics, fragile and expensive proportional valves are replaced with multiple inexpensive and robust on/off valves. The results include higher reliability, lower energy usage, more accuracy in machine movements, fewer shutdowns, less lost production and lower initial investment and spare parts carrying cost.

Ready for the challenge: Valves enhance fluidised-bed polymerization

The global olefins market is expected to grow by about 4% or more in the next several years. The packaging and automobile industries are ...

Flowrox valves control sludge flow in a wastewater plant without problems

Flowrox pinch valves PV 500 E01 are successfully controlling the sludge flow in a Polish wastewater plant. Twenty electrically actuated valves were delivered in 2011 to Poland through Danish engineering company Krüger A/S and local Valmet Flow Control channel partner.

Common hydraulic valves – cartridge counterbalance valves

Counterbalance valves prevent oil from leaving a cylinder that is holding a load. Without them, loads would move uncontrollably if oil pressure is lost.

Solenoid and air operated valves

Our solenoid valves and air operated valves are all based on modern designs and communication technologies. We offer a comprehensive range of spool type direction control valves for actuation in various pneumatic applications. The range includes all types of direction control valves required for process automation.

Common fluids valves explained: Pressure reducing valve

Pressure reducing valves are used to create and hold a pressure setpoint in a downstream hydraulic branch. Valmet uses sandwich style valves because they are easy to fit in a stacked hydraulic valve block circuit.

Are you in control of your polymer production?

For efficient and safe plastics production, a polymerization unit relies on numerous control and on-off valves. It’s vital to know you can count on those valves to do their job at all times. The selection of the right valve for each step requires careful consideration. And every detail matters when it comes to running a reliable, profitable plant.
