Why are Electric PRVs Replacing Self-Piloting Steam Regulators?
A trend has been gaining steam. Electric modulating pressure-reducing valves (PRV) are increasingly replacing traditional self-piloted regulators in steam systems.
Not All “PFAS” Chemicals are the Same – In Fact –...
Fluoropolymers such as PTFE, PVDF, FEP, and PFA are a group of polymers found within the Per and PolyFluoroAlkyl Substance (PFAS) naming syntax.
Valve OEMs Urged to Throttle Up
In industrial applications, throttling valves play a crucial role in managing processes by facilitating the fine-tuning of flow rate, pressure, and temperature within the system.
Why Supply Chain Automation is Crucial for Valve Manufacturers
As valve manufacturers are still feeling the effects of supply chain disruptions from the global pandemic, reshoring, and international political unrest, the industry has been forced to undergo a massive renovation that is expected to continue for at least a few more years.
Optimizing Dwell Time for Bolted Flange Installation
Efficient and effective bolted flange joint installations are pivotal for minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity in industrial plants.
