With a new unique seat arrangement gives greater flow than comparable valves - features of the valve include: All wetted parts 304 stainless steel Port sizes 3/8” bsp through to 11/4” bsp Normally closed and normally open functions available; pressure range 0-16 bar in either direction; new design of endcap allows snap in mounting into manifold; reed switch sensing available; FKM seals with PTFE seat as standard; 3/2 pilot valve available with different electrical connections available; competitively priced valves and accessories held in stock. e | john.osborn@coaxvalves.co.uk w | www.fmx-valves.com COMPACT HIGH FLOW FMX VALVE DNP INDUSTRIALE has announced it has developed a series of screws to connect flat-face couplings featuring its “PVT4” design for hydraulic applications with high working pressures (35 Mpa) and connection with residual pressure in the circuit. The zinc-nickel coating ensures high corrosion resistance. The screw coupling system eliminates the damages that normally occur in classic couplings with ball locking (brinelling). The hexagonal sleeve allows the placement of colored rings (colour code rings), which help the operator in the identification of the hydraulic lines, a particularly useful feature in the case of complex systems with many couplings of the same size. t | +39 039 877451 e | info@dnp.it w | www.dnp.it INNOVATIVE FLAT FACE SCREW THORITE says most industrial customers have experience of the standard service agreement; generally a one-size-fits-all answer to customer care, which is good in certain circumstances, but fails in several ways where there are some elements – and therefore cost – that some customers have very little use for. With this in mind, Thorite says it has introduced a completely new concept to after-sales customer care, resulting in a comprehensive aftermarket solutions package that gives customers more added value and a more focussed service. Thorite is recognised industry-wide for expertise in pneumatics, fluid power, hydraulics, compressors, and vacuum equipment, distributing the world’s market-leading brands through a UK-based network of 11 sales & service centres. t | 0800 0341 041 w | www.thorite.co.uk AFTERMARKET SOLUTIONS PACKAGE As a commercial fluid specialist, APPLIED PUMPS says it has a complete programme of pumps and related fluid equipment: Screw Pumps & Gear Pumps for FUELS & OILS Centrifugal Pumps for WATER, EFFLUENT, CHEMICALS, FUELS..
