American fluid automation solutions manufacturer, ASCO, has added to its 362 and 562 Series of brass and stainless steel spool valves by introducing 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch pipe sizes that feature the industry’s highest flow rates and low-power consumption. These new sizes provide design engineers with additional solutions for control valve automation, especially in the upstream, midstream and downstream oil and gas markets.
The valves high flow rates will enable original equipment manufacturers to use smaller piping and purchase lower cost valves while achieving the same flow specifications.
The 362 and 562 Series valves are available in brass and 316L stainless steel constructions for corrosion resistance in harsh environments. The series have both pneumatic and solenoid models.
The ASCO 362 Series is a three-way valve made for single-acting process valve applications. The ASCO 562 Series is a four-way spool valve designed for double-acting process valves. The product lines are available in 1/4-inch, 3/8-inch, 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, and 1-inch sizes.
