VFH1: THE REVOLUTIONARY SCREW COUPLINGS

16 July, 2021

With a working pressure of 35 MPa, this series of couplings is available from DN20 to DN50. The main features of these couplings are the high ¬flow rates and the reduced pressure drops. Another characteristic of this series is that no tool is required to connect the two half-couplings, as the sleeves are equipped with two wings that facilitate their manual screwing and possibly the use of a hammer, since the connection is allowed with residual pressure. Aluminium caps are also available to protect the connection threads and, for some sizes, there are also API 16D (BOP type) approved versions.

BOOSTING ENVIRONMENTAL CREDENTIALS

27 May, 2021

HI-LINE INDUSTRIES, an established and reputable UK manufacturer of high-quality compressed air purification equipment, has announced it has released the 2021 version of its energy-efficient Tundra refrigeration dryers. Most notable among the enhancements is a switch of refrigerant to R513a in models up to and including Tundra 115 (115 cfm, 195 m3/hr capacity). A HFC/HFO blend, R513a refrigerant has no ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and a much reduced CO2 impact in comparison with the previous R134a refrigerant. As a result, customers can rest assured that Hi-line is continuing its commitment to sustainability in manufacturing by minimising its carbon footprint.
