The valves help minimise the effects of fuel hammer or pressure shock on loading systems, as well as ensuring the accuracy of the metering systems they are connected to. We design all our valves to operate in Zone 1 hazardous areas and additionally include automatic closure in the event of an emergency shutdown.
We fit our Fuel Flow Control Valves onto our bulk flow meters, including on our electronic loading skids and terminal loading gantries. Olenoid valves, controlled by a batch controller, provide the control. The electro-mechanical valves come in 2in, 3in, and 4in flanged sizes with two-stage, multi-function as well as digital flow control options.
Below you will find all the key details for our Flow Control Valves. If you would like to discuss this in more detail, then please just get in touch. Because, we are always happy to help and answer any queries you may have.
These solid valves provide two flow rates, slow flow (partially open), as well as fast flow (fully open). We calibrate the slow flow rate to match site requirements. The speed of the pump system therefore dictates the fast flow rate.
Directly controlled by a load computer, these valves can provide a graduated increase and decrease in flow rate, according to site requirements. These valves are ideal for accurate batch loading of petroleum products into tankers at oil depots and petroleum terminals.
We also offer a range of valves for controlling the rate of flow or differential pressure through a fuelling system. Rail refuelling depots typically utilise them. The valves require no external power and undergo factory calibration to provide the required performance on-site.
See how we provided a full design, manufacture and installation solution incorporating our electronic bottom loading skid, a tank off-set fill point cabinet, an electronic tank gauge system for three tanks with remote web access and all the on site electrical and mechanical pipework to an oil distribution company.
