Introducing Metso’s extended valve offering at Valve World Conference & Expo 2018

At the Valve World Conference & Expo in Düsseldorf, Metso will showcase the latest additions to its offering for the process industries, as well as the most comprehensive line of control valves available on the market today. Visitors can also learn how real-time plant data can give critical information about valve condition and help to minimize unplanned downtime.
On November 1, 2018, Metso acquired the valve automation division of Rotex Manufacturers and Engineers and its actuators, limit switches, valve automation components and valves business, and Metso’s extended range of flow control solutions for process industries are integrated under the leading product families of Neles and Jamesbury. The acquired products will comprise two new product groups. Compliant with common industry standards, the Metso Jamesbury EasyFlow range of valve solutions offers a complete suite of products: ball valves, butterfly valves, rack and pinion actuators and limit switches. Designed for low friction and a long cycle life, the Neles Scotch-Yoke actuators provide a solution for applications where a mid- to high-torque range is required in on/off, ESD or modulating duty.
During the event, visitors can learn more about the Metso Jamesbury EasyFlow rubber-lined butterfly valve and the Neles Scotch-Yoke actuator through demos.
The product range expansion gives Metso an opportunity to introduce new products for the mid- and downstream oil and gas, petrochemical and chemical, industrial gas, pulp and paper, power and other process industries. Further, we can serve new applications and industries, such as food and beverage, mining and minerals processing, pharmaceuticals, as well as water and waste water.
At Valve World Metso will present 20-minute info sessions held twice a day (11 am and 2 pm). The topics cover digitalizing and enhancing the customer experience in complex EPC projects, advanced diagnostics for control valves, and what’s new and exciting regarding our product offering.
Also, Metso expert at the Valve World Conference is included in the keynote session on Tuesday, November 27 – Severe service applications with ‘Lifecycle of an ESD valve – an install-and-forget device?’ by Ville Kähkönen, Director of Industry Management.
