Wärtsilä Shipham Valves has extended its full range of duplex and super duplex stainless steel valves to cover higher pressure ratings. This portfolio expansion means that Wärtsilä is able to provide customers with all the corrosion resistant valves needed for their entire project from a single source. The new range would be launched at the Valve World Expo scheduled to take place in Düsseldorf, Germany, 2 December to 4 December 2014.
The full product range of Wärtsilä Shipham Valves, including gate, globe, check, ball, and butterfly valves, can now be specified in duplex and super duplex, with sizes ranging from 15mm to 1200mm and pressure ratings up to ANSI 1500 lbs. With Wärtsilä’s expanded offering of duplex and super duplex valves, a broader scope of applications requiring enhanced resistance to corrosion and erosion can now be handled.
“Wärtsilä Shipham Valves are known for their quality and focus on corrosion resistant materials. We are an acknowledged world leader in the design and manufacture of speciality non-ferrous, composite and high alloy material valves, for applications with seawater or other corrosive fluids. This expanded portfolio is the result of a two-year investment and development process and means that we can now support a vast range of challenging applications”, says Trevor Fairhurst, business development director, Wärtsilä Valves.
