Last month three of our Swagelok Bristol team went to Swagelok Aberdeen for a Europe-wide collaboration and training with Sam Dibert, President of Swagelok Dibert Valve and Fitting Co. Sam gave a demonstration of a more varied range of applications for the 60 Series ball valve.
At Swagelok Central UK we most commonly deploy the 60 Series Ball Valve in challenging process applications where higher flow, larger tube sizing (1/2" -2") and a broad range of temperature and operating parameters exist, mainly within industries such as Chemical, Refining and Nuclear.
