Key Technologies

Bellows sealed globe valves

The bellows sealed globe valve is a true hermetic valve that comprises internal bellows and seal welds on all external joints that prevent any release of harmful chemicals. Manufactured with Inconel 625 alloy the bellows feature a multi-ply, welded seam construction designed for longer service life and shorted maintenance time.

Three-piece ball valves

Its three-piece design means that any part of the valve can be maintained without any need to remove it fully from the line. It has a polished ball that provides tight shut-off while the floating ball preloads the valve seat. Line pressure provides the force required to create a bubble-tight shut-off at all pressure levels.
