ℹ When leaks cost millions: our solution in a single valve.
We replaced a louver-type valve whose insufficient tightness disrupted the combustion cycle and, over time, generated losses amounting to millions of euros. Here’s how we solved this challenge.
✅ Triple-eccentric butterfly valve DN1000 PN16
✅ Metal-to-metal sealing with solid AISI 316 seat
✅ Class VI tightness according to ANSI FCI 70/2
✅ Resistance to continuous operating temperatures up to 650°C
The client’s challenge
For years, a damper valve (Class IV) allowed a significant volume of flue gas to escape. These leakages resulted in:
➖ Scale deposits
➖ Thermal disturbances
➖ Obstruction of injection nozzles
What our solution delivered
With this new valve, the combustion cycle was optimized. The results:
➕ Improved thermal performance
➕ Significant reduction in gas consumption
➕ ROI expected within just a few years 📈💰
