Process - Fluid and Climate Control Europe | Parker
Offshore Oil Rig in Ocean

The process market covers many different type of industries. Usually these industries prepare or modify raw materials, using different kind of processes. The raw materials are very diverse, they can be gases, liquids, powders, fibers. These types of materials flow through process valves, that are controlled by pneumatic actuators, themselves operated by solenoid valves. The industries covered are also very diverse: chemical and petrochemical, power generation, oil & gas, water & sewage, pulp & paper, food industry & pharmaceutical industry. Plants can be indoor or outdoor, onshore or off shore, operating in harsh environments, with hazardous or safe areas.

Main application is pneumatic actuator control. Depending on the actuator type, the pilot valve required can be directly mounted on the actuator, following the NAMUR standard (VDI/VDE 3845), or externally connected to the actuator (piped valves). The majority of pilot valves have a spring return, or fail safe, function. For some specific applications, bistable valves are also available. Our products can also be used in other applications such as: HVAC equipment, wellhead control panels, sampling and analyzing, fire dampers control, etc…


Benefits

  • Every valve body conforms to Mechanical ATEX EN 13 463-1 & 5;
  • Wide range of combinations valve + coil are SIL3 capable according IEC 61508 and can be used as safety valves;
  • ATEX electrical parts comply to European directive ATEX 2014/34/UE; 
  • Majority of ATEX electrical parts comply to ATEX international scheme IECEx;
  • Electrical parts are modular: a coil can be disassembled from a valve very quickly, which is an advantage when the products have been installed, making service and maintenance simple;
  • A single valve is able to receive different types of coils, including ATEX, which helps reduce the inventory for end users or distributors;
  • A coil or a valve can be ordered separately and assembled later by end users or distributors;
  • Material traceability certificate is available for Offshore applications.
