ISO standard valves
13 July, 2007 | Supplied by: IMI Precision Engineering
The Norgren five-port valves can now incorporate twin 3/2 valves in the valve body, effectively having two three-port valves in a five-port body yet still conforming to ISO 15407. This enables water treatment plants to control twice as many spring return actuated process valves in an ISO valve. For example, 20 activated valves could be controlled by 20 3/2 solenoid valves that are mounted in a 10 station valve island. Alternatively, a combination of twin 3/2 valves and standard 5/2 valves can be configured enabling double acting activated valves to be controlled.
