Circle
Seal XVH Series excess flow valves automatically close
leak-tight whenever a flow spike may occur, preventing
uncontrolled release of system fluid to ensure a safe
and reliable working environment at low cost and with
minimal maintenance requirement.
These
quick-acting and versatile flow switches have a working
pressure range of 0 to 6000 psig
(0 to 414 bar). A variety of different seal and body
materials is offered to enable the valve’s use
with any liquid or gas service, while versatility is
further ensured by a choice of end connections which
allows assembly in most systems or applications.
|
For additional system application
flexibility, the XVH excess flow valve’s
spring-loaded poppet can be mounted in any orientation.
Additionally, both automatic and manual reset versions
are available.
The bleed valves on automatic models
have an 'anti-clog' wire |
that
prevents fluid build-up at the bleed port to increase
reliability. Manual valves assure zero leakage until
individually reset.
Colored ring bands on all models provide
engineers and maintenance staff with a useful instant
visual indication of valve type, trip range and
seal material. |

The GO HR-1 hydraulic pressure regulator
controls pressures up to 20,000 psig (1379 bar), with
a universal range spring enabling a
single configuration for
|
all pressure ranges and piston-sensing
operations claimed to give the highest accuracy and
reliability at high pressures.
In-line servicing minimizes
system downtime and eliminates costly process shutdowns,
while a special low adjusting torque design makes pressure
setting considerably easier than normal.
A heavy-duty panel mounting collar simplifies
panel installation and a segregated vent port allows
hydraulic fluid to be captured and vented back to the
desired storage location.
Ideal for all critical hydraulic industrial,
offshore, component test/calibration and pressure boosting
applications, the regulator’s tungsten carbide
poppet is highly resistant to erosion that is typical
of high velocity hydraulic fluid applications.

Two versions are available:
a manually controlled model offering a variety of set
pressure options and a dome-loaded regulator with a
dual dome piston design allowing remote control of these
units with minimal dome pressures.
Bodies are 316L stainless steel and O-rings
are of Viton V709-90. A wide range of port types is
available.
Flow coefficient is 0.06 Cv on the unit
and 0.08 Cv on the vent valve. Temperature
rating is up to 175°F (79†C) on the inlet at up
to 20,000 psig (1379 bar). On the outlet, manual-load
versions have nine settings between 250 and 20,000 psig
(17 and 1379 bar) while dome-loaded models cover 250
to 20,000 psig (17 to 1379 bar) with ratios from 20:1
to 363:1, with 500 psig (34.5 bar) maximum dome pressure.

New
people are B.Eng graduates
CIRCOR
Instrumentation has recently recruited two young graduate
trainees. Moiz Buhadi, a B.Sc (Eng) graduate in Mechanical
Engineering, joined our sales team in February. He is
being trained on all aspects of the business. Fluent in Arabic, he will
be taking a more active role with our distributors in
the Middle East.
Spyros Tatarakis, with a B.Sc (Eng) in Mechanical
Engineering and a Masters in Advanced Manufacturing Engineering,
joined CIRCOR in October. He is also being trained on
all aspects of the business. Fluent in Greek, he will
specialise on the Circle Seal Controls products in European
Markets. |
CIRCOR
on show in
three countries
CIRCOR
Instrumentation exhibited at three key industry exhibitions
in 2001: Offshore Europe in Aberdeen, Scotland; Interkama
in Dusseldorf, Germany, and ISA in Houston, Texas. These
shows allowed CIRCOR to meet key customers, introduce
new products and support distribution. The resulting lead
generation and company exposure was considered a success
at all three events. |
BASF
Antwerp
To
support the new BASF contract, CIRCOR has been working
with the BASF Antwerp location. Over several months part
numbers were converted to Hoke and Gyrolok and a stock
book was developed including drawings of all components.
Two hundred people were put through a Hoke/Gyrolok seminar
and buffer stocks were developed ‘tuned’ to
BASF's requirements, allowing the facility to start purchasing
CIRCOR Instrumentation products. |
Hoke
Conforms to PED
Hoke
incorporated will provide PED (Pressure Equipment Directive)
conforming products to members of the European Union (EU).
This Statement of Conformity encompasses all
valves, Gyrolok Tube and Pipe Fittings, Manifolds, Pressure Operated Actuators
and Regulators up to DN25mm and PS from -0 to 414 BAR
MAWP of Hoke Incorporated design and manufacture.
For the official Conformity Statement, please
contact our offices. |
