Emech™ is digital hardware that is faster, simple, and smarter with one goal in mind: unparalleled performance in industrial applications. Emech™ digital control valves are available for steam/water and hot/cold water industrial service. The unique range of Emech™ multi-patented ceramic disc/stainless steel disc rotary 3 port mixing and 2 port flow control valves, when combined with the Emech™ digital actuator delivers superior closed-loop performance in terms of speed, precision and reduced mechanical wear when compared to traditional mixing and control valve systems.

The mixing valve system is a highly optimized temperature control system with patented valve disc system, swirl mixing action, high speed in valve sensing, with embedded PID control of a 100% duty cycle rated stepper motor digital actuator.

A series of digital flow control valves are also available, which when combined with the Emech™ actuator and sensing technology forms a system providing superior temperature control to a range of industry standard processes, through its high speed and software configurable control dynamics.

High Speed Accuracy, Increase in Productivity

Decrease production downtime, improve product consistency and boost revenue.

Emech Digital Control Valves are specifically designed to instantly respond accurately. Emech’s response time is incredibly rapid which directly affects productivity. The technology of Emech simply achieves more in less time, increasing productivity while lowering utility and maintenance cost. Emech’s superior valve performance allows manufacturers to run their plans closer to constraints, thereby increasing production and yield.

Maintenance Friendly

Featuring a CF8M/316 stainless steel valve body along with ceramic or nickel chrome stainless steel action discs and “simple” valve seals design kits, the Emech system is built to resist corrosion and minimalize wear while providing maximum performance.

Emech is manufactured to meet the highest possible standards in our ISO9001:2000 accredited facility, every Emech system is designed, built and tested to provide reliable service with minimal maintenance.
