  Valves and flow equipment for power plants

  Posted in: Markets

  Power plants operate with steam, feedwater, condensate, cooling water, thermal oil, fuel, compressed air, industrial gas, chemical water treatment and auxiliary fluid networks. Valve selection is based on pressure, temperature, fluid type, differential pressure, operating cycle and equipment protection requirements. Thermal plants, CHP units, biomass boilers, turbine auxiliary systems and heat recovery installations require a defined function for each valve. Steam and feedwater lines require...

  Valves and flow equipment for oil and gas applications

  Posted in: Markets

  Oil and gas installations operate with hydrocarbon, fuel, natural gas, nitrogen, compressed air, steam, condensate, thermal oil, cooling water, chemical additive and auxiliary fluid lines. Valve selection is based on pressure, temperature, fluid composition, differential pressure, tightness and the function of each line. Storage, transfer, processing, distribution and combustion systems for hydrocarbons require a defined function for each valve. Correct sizing helps limit excessive flow...
