Modular Ex-Program for solenoid valves
The new Ex-product range for solenoid valves is a modular coil and valve concept that fulfils all current requirements of the explosion protection standard EN 60079. The use of the new cable plug Type 2513 enables a versatile installation of the connection line. The cable plug with a moulded cable, certified after ATEX Cat. 3 GD EN 60079, withstands high pull-out forces and therefore offers a safe connection, with which a “fixed installation” all the way to the end device in the conduit or cable duct is not necessary. In the Zones 1 and 21 or in areas with especially aggressive ambient conditions the new epoxy resin encapsulated solenoid valve coil is used. The highly chemical resistant polyolefin cable is even suitable for use in outdoor areas or gas stations.

Ball check valves for challenging wastewater applications
Albion Valves (UK) Ball Check valve can be used for applications including sewage, drainage, storm water and industrial pumping. The design comprises of only one moving part and in water applications. In addition to the ‘non clog’ operation, the Ball Check valve operates with much less friction than a conventional disk sprung valve resulting in less wear and ultimately lower maintenance, the company said. The design allows the ball to rotate freely, so that with each motion the ball seats on a different portion of its surface. This results in even wear across the ball’s whole exterior, preventing excessive deterioration in one specific place and therefore promoting a longer life. www.albionvalvesuk.com
