Correct valve specification

03 April 2017

Choosing the correct design and specification of a valve for a process can save costs, reduce downtime and minimise product loss or contamination.

From choosing the most effective seat material, to the correct mounting considerations of an actuator, Dixon can advise on factors which can affect the wear and tear on a valve and in turn create problems with contamination and reduce a valve’s life cycle.  

Dixon’s range of high quality ball and butterfly valves can be actuated to customer specification with a range of stocked accessories that includes limit switches, solenoids and positioners. All actuators have been type-tested to 1,000,000 cycles.

Dixon supplies a full range of valves including diaphragm, mixproof, check and seat valves for many hygienic applications

Full technical and sales support are available from their qualified technical sales team and Dixon offers same day and next day delivery on most standard actuated valves and custom fabrications.

With an on-site actuation shop, 3D design, full technical and sales back-up, and BSI approved manufacturing and engineering departments, Dixon can design and produce individual bespoke valves and fabricated configurations to quickly and efficiently solve customer problems.
