Press Release Summary:
Brass and 316 Stainless Steel spool valves of 362 and 562 Series come in 3/8 and ½ in. pipe sizes suited for control valve automation in oil and gas markets. While 362 Series consists of 3-way valves for single-acting process valve applications, 562 Series includes 4-way spool valves for double-acting process valves. Both series, which have low-power versions suited for remote applications, offer corrosion resistance for harsh environments and include pneumatic and solenoid models.
Original Press Release:
ASCO Introduces Additional 362/562 Series Spool Valve Pipe Sizes with Industry's Highest Flow Rates and Low Power Consumption
FLORHAM PARK, NEW JERSEY, U.S.A. - ASCO has added to its 362 and 562 Series of brass and stainless steel spool valves by introducing 3/8-inch and ½-inch pipe sizes that feature the industry's highest flow rates and low-power consumption. These new sizes provide design engineers with additional solutions for control valve automation, especially in the upstream, midstream, and downstream oil and gas markets.
"The introduction of these additional sizes completes the 362 and 562 Series product lines, making ASCO a comprehensive product line supplier for upstream oil and gas automation," said Robert W. Kemple, Jr., executive vice president, sales and marketing – Americas, ASCO. "The 3/8-inch and ½-inch models have low-power versions that are attractive for remote applications. In addition, the brass constructions are 20% smaller than competitive products, saving critical space in control cabinets."
The valves' exceptionally high flow rates will enable original equipment manufacturers to use smaller piping and purchase lower cost valves while achieving the same flow specifications.
The 362 and 562 Series valves are available in brass and 316L stainless steel constructions for corrosion resistance in harsh environments. The series have both pneumatic and solenoid models. Optional features include:
New dual approved solenoid option with ATEX and UL hazardous location approvals
Availability in 0.55 W low-power versions
"Our new valves utilize ASCO's proven solenoid technology, which has led the industry in reliability for decades," said Kemple. "We design, manufacture, and test our solenoids for the highest-quality, longest lifecycles, and greatest product availability."
The ASCO 362 Series is a three-way valve made for single-acting process valve applications. The ASCO 562 Series is a four-way spool valve designed for double-acting process valves. The product lines are available in ¼-inch, 3/8-inch, ½-inch, ¾-inch, and 1-inch sizes.
Popular constructions will be available for same-day shipping with no expediting fees via ASCO Express. The valves can be ordered through ASCO distributors and sales representatives. For more information, contact ASCO at 800-972-ASCO (2726), by e-mail at info-valve@asco.com, or visit www.asco.com.
