Schroeder Valves, the German-based company with sales offices all over the world including the United States, presented its latest innovation at ACHEMA: The Schroeder High Pressure Valve SHP. This automatic recirculation valve was developed for high and extremely high pressures and also works reliably under highly fluctuating load conditions. With the innovation, the specialist in protective pump fittings is responding to the requirements of its customers, primarily from the field of power plant and plant construction and the offshore industry.
The SHP builds on existing Schroeder Valves technology. The company already has years of operational experience with almost all of the effective principles and assemblies used. The individual system components have simply been modified and innovatively combined, so that they enhance the dependable and low-wear area of application of the existing technology to meet the increased requirements. Thus, the new SHP-series automatic recirculation valve enables and promotes the energy-efficient operation of modern power plant facilities.
Schroeder Valves has each valve undergo a 100 percent pressure and functionality testing prior to delivery. To ensure this also with the SHP, the company is currently adding to their flow test center a test stand for pressures up to 400 bar.
