Neles™ 6D ball valves - Developed to deliver performance

The journey of the Neles 6D ball valve to meet latest 25th edition of API 6D took a little more than two years from drawing to reality. It is one more triumph for Valmet’s carefully managed product upgrade programme. The valve is based on Neles field-proven technology that has undergone development based on the voice of customer – the starting point for all projects related to our valve technologies.

Simple steps can prevent valve issues during start-up

Unexpected problems in flow control equipment are the bane of all process engineers looking to start up projects on schedule. Valves are often (incorrectly) identified as being ‘bad actors’ as the root cause tends to lie elsewhere, is the experience of Valmet’s Mr Börjesson. Better on-site practices could be the solution, is his message

Navigating high temperature challenges with Neles™ Neldisc™ butterfly valves

As process temperatures go up, the challenges for the flow control equipment increase gradually. Stepping above 250 °C requires most of the plastics and polymers to be abandoned and the selection of metallic materials instead. Furthermore, when the temperature rises above 600 °C, the challenges with the suitability of the materials require even more careful attention.
