SPX® FLOW is well known for its extensive range of sanitary valves, but it also has vast expertise in the design, manufacture and testing of complete valve manifolds, a service that many customers have found offers significant benefits to their process performance.
When selecting a SPX FLOW valve manifold, the complete unit design is assured, fully assembled and hydrostatically tested to check for any leaks. Fabrication facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art orbital welders and welding personnel are certified for specific weld types. SPX FLOW’s global presence means it has the experience and capability to meet various weld standards and, if required, a full welding report can be provided showing complete traceability of the number of welds, locations and welder details. Ultimately, having the guarantee of expert valve knowledge to ensure housings are not distorted during the weld process and valves are correctly aligned, reduces the risk of extended installation time or process downtime once the package is installed.
The wide range of SPX FLOW valves come from its APV® and Waukesha Cherry-Burrell® (WCB) brands. Models include single seat, double seat mix proof, butterfly and an extensive range of process valves for niche applications. Valves can be tailored to exact application needs and, by selecting SPX FLOW valves, customers choose units offering heavy-duty construction and long life, reliable processing and hygienic operation to international standards including EHEDG and 3-A. Valve ranges are flexible and modular with a variety of options to help match the application requirements with customer’s budgets.
