Pipeline - Storage

Why choose the Hemiwedge® Cartridge Valve for your Pipeline application?  Here’s a perfect example:  

Situation: The customer wants to ensure their "meter/prover" (their cash register) is accurate to avoid product loss. In the effort to test the system leaking drain valves can cause significant inaccuries. Replacing or repairing these valves when they are buried can be costly just in the effort to gain access to the valve. The cumulative costs of the excavation equipment to dig to OSHA standards and the cost of onsite contractors to perform the repair or the cost to replace the entire valve become prohibitive.

Solution: With the Cartridge concept of the Hemiwedge® Cartridge Valve and the innovative design including a “body extension” to allow repair of a buried valve from the surface; you no longer have to excavate to access the valve.
