POLYURETHANE SLEEVES FOR CARBON MINING
Ukraine
GMA type slurry knife gate valves succeed in carbon industry for several carbon mining plants in Ukraine.
The polyurethane metal cored sleeves offer a bi-directional shutoff of the valve and prevents the fluid to be in contact with the body in the open and close positions.
A revolutionary secondary seal design prevents leakage at the top of the valve at high working pressures and reduce valve maintenance.
Highlights:
- Bonnet-less knife gate valves.
- Polyurethane sleeves.
- Low maintenance.
- Up to 10bar working pressure.
HIGH TEMPERATURE BUTTERFLY DAMPERS IN USA
U.S.A.
In cooperation with a world recognized concrete covering company, a special refractory concrete was the solution to withstand temperatures up to 1100ºC for butterfly Dampers in 310 stainless steel.
FCA engineering team can simulate by finite element analysis temperature parameters to ensure the best valve performance.
Highlights:
- High working temperature.
- Special refractory concrete applications.
MEXICO CUSTOMIZED VALVES FOR THERMAL POWER PLANT
Mexico
There are a lot specific applications at Thermal Plants all of them with highly demanding requirements such as the pneumatic transportation of pulverized coal and after combustion ash. FCA has
supplied successfully several customized valves for this application and many customers have taken advantage of FCA’s knowledge. The proposed solution has shown our engineering capabilities
and production flexibility. FCA always offers the best valves for each abrasive severe service.
Highlights:
- High temperature Dampers.
- Special applications on demand.
FCA CONTROL VALVES WORKING AT OFFSHORE PLATFORMS
Unlike other applications, the valves installed at offshore platforms must comply further technical requirements:
- Special material and overlays for avoiding the effects caused by corrosion.
- Lighter design for avoiding issues at installation.
- Use of special sealing materials for Sour fluids.
FCA Control valves have been installed at corrosive ambient ensuring always the integrity and correct performance of the valves at such severe working conditions.
COPPER MINE IN CHILE
Chile
FCA has supplied several solutions to the copper mining sector. This case study shows the first mining project where water needs are supplied through a pipeline that transports water from sea to mine site located in a desert area.
Due to the corrosive nature of the transported fluid, FCA has had to customize its solutions choosing the appropriate materials (Duplex, Inconel,…) and ensure a long life and maintenance free process.
Highlights:
- Corrosive fluids.
- Exotic materials.
- High Pressure up to class 2500#.
- Severe service.
QUY NHON WATER TREATMENT PLANT
Vietnam
FCA keeps on increasing its customer’s satisfaction around the world. Our knowledge in water treatment processes and its particular needs allows FCA to be a potential partner for each water treatment project.
Quy Nhon Water project located at Quy Nhon city, Vietnam, is the latest awarded project where FCA solutions will be installed. The good execution of this
project will support FCA increasing its reference list and ensuring brand new future projects.
