VT-3400 POSITIONER IMPROVEMENTS

The VT-3400 series intelligent positioners have undergone a technical change that brings improved diagnostic and operational capabilities. The VT-3400 intelligent positioner has undergone extensive hardware and software development to enable enhanced diagnostics, advanced step tests and partial stroke test (PST). The integrated display contributes to quick and easy setup and commissioning. New software increases the calculation speed, reactivity and dynamic performance of the positioner. The VT-3400 does not use gears, reducing mechanical hysteresis and potential wear. This leads to more accurate positioning and valve positioning.

                              

EXPANSION OF THE PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF PEKOS VALVES

A new plant is being built at the headquarters of our partner Pekos in Barcelona (Montmelo). The market demands constantly reflect the increase in process automation in all sectors, so the new 1500 m2 space will be used to expand the production and assembly of all variants of automated ball valve assemblies. The new facility will allow the current stock to be increased by a larger quantity of valves up to 24" clearance, including actuators and all automation components, which can then be assembled, tested and shipped within a matter of days.

               

REALIZED PROJECTS

PEKOS BALL VALVES WITH ACCESSORIES

In the penultimate week of February, the final tests of the electro-pneumatically operated ball valves for the current project at BORSODCHEM were carried out. We are involved in the supply of PEKOS ball valves of the Z04 series. The valves are operated by OMAL single-acting pneumatic actuators with ROTECH end position sensors. All assemblies meet the specification requirements for use in hazardous areas.
