Knife-gate valves for the mining industry
Stafsjö SLV, SLF, SLH & SLX valves are all suitable for the most abrasive and demanding slurry where operational reliability and low life-cycle costs are emphasised
Control Valve Linkage-Free Positioners – why change?
Linkage free positioners use a magnetic assembly that is non contact. What does that mean?:
Knife-gate valves for the biomass industry
Stafsjö’s product range consist of 16 different models of which WB and MV valves are particularly suited for biomass.
Reducing the risk of welding-heat damage to valves during installation
To reduce the risk of damage being caused to valves during the installation process, ESI can now supply Habonim 3-piece ball valves which are fitted with “extended ends”
Monitoring the position of manual lever-operated valves
Feedback sensors are essential for ensuring critical valves are appropriately positioned when in service.
Actuators to meet clean-room specification
For sanitary applications or when it is necessary to install actuators in a clean room, the standard industrial actuator may present a problem as the specification usually calls for “crevice free” equipment.
