Zahroof Valves Inc. (ZVI) announced a 10-year warranty on its stainless steel valve housings.
The ZVI StraightFlo Valve (SFV) is a patent-pending reciprocating compressor valve technology with a unique design. ZVI has developed and introduced the SFV to tackle issues such as unplanned compressor downtime due to failures in the compressor valve and power wastage in operating a reciprocating compressor.
The innovative design, based on the patented Modular Reed Valve technology, delivers a step change in reciprocating compressor performance, serviceability and reliability while reducing gas emissions to the environment. In addition to its 10-year warranty, the ZVI StraightFlo Valve has proven to improve valve efficiency by up to 40% and significantly extend run time between valve service intervals. The unique design of the SFV can be applied to all gas compression applications.
The SFV are designed and manufactured to the American Petroleum Institute Standards: API-618. The SFV and modules can operate in conditions with up to 3000psi differential pressure across the valves and a continuous operating temperature of 550°F at operating speeds from 300 to 3600 rpm, which covers up to 90% of the market.
“Our 10 year warranty is an unprecedented offering in the industry”, says Zahroof Valves CEO Anthony Gioffredi. “The industry standard is six to twelve months, and we offer ten times that amount. We confidently stand behind our product and want our customers to have complete peace of mind.”
