FoxPak leads the hunt
15 Jan 2000
Developed by control valve specialists at Siebe, the FoxPak modular process control valve system from Gestra offers a range of variants to suit many different process media. Based on proven DIN and ANSI bodied valves with an extensive catalogue of ancilliary components, FoxPak valves are `capable fo surpassing all major performance criteria,' claims Siebe.
The valves represent a drive by Siebe to rationalise its control valve range. They are compact, making them suitable for restricted spaces, and feature a multi-function yoke, which allows integrated mounting of actuators and positioners. Electrical and pneumatic actuators are available, as well as optional handwheels for emergencies.
Siebe has designed and built the valves for minimum maintenance and downtime. Standard and bellows-sealed valves can be reseated with pure graphite sealing, and stuffing boxes can be repacked with PTFE ring seals designed to withstand temperatures of -10 degrees-250 degrees C.
