Energy 09 Solenoid Valve Technology Norgren offers a number of safe, reliable and cost- effective integrated solenoid valve solutions for actuation control in upstream and downstream applications including the control of process pneumatic actuators and the control and handling of neutral and aggressive gases and liquids. Our valves are typically manufactured with stainless steel housings and Ex-proof coils, with a broad choice of materials for seals to suit the environmental and application specifications. Our high integrity valves have: Force friction ratio Low Power ICO3 Valves » A Field proven track record » 10 year service interval (6 years to maintain SIL 3) » Wide range of flow and function options » Stainless Steel, Aluminium or Brass construction options » Industry leading Force Friction Ratio (FFR) » Cable terminations inside coil - No additional Ex terminations required » Rated for 100% duty » Wide temperature range -60oC to +120oC » International approvals » SIL approved The critical safety element of a solenoid valve is its Force Friction Ratio (FFR). The FFR is a measure of the relationship between the force presented by the spring return mechanism and the frictional resistance within the valve. In basic terms, the higher the FFR, the more likely the valve is to operate when demanded, as the spring will have a force in excess of the friction. Poppet design solenoid valves generate much lower friction than spool design solenoid valves, and this advantage is greatly enhanced at extreme temperatures – both hot and cold. Maxseal and Herion solenoid valves offer an FFR of 10 - the highest in the industry. The Low Power ICO3S range of direct acting solenoid valves provide a low power option for high-flow instrument change over applications. With a nominal steady state power consumption of 1.0W, the Low Power ICO3S exhibits a 67% reduction in steady-state power consumption when compared to the standard ICO3S, whilst retaining identical flow & safety integrity level due to an uncompromised 5kg spring-force and associated high force/friction ratio. Unlike many other Low Power valves, the Maxseal Low Power ICO3S does not achieve reduced energy consumption though a weakened return spring or internal piloting. Instead, the valve uses an integrated PWM driver to regulate the power delivered to the coil. The benefit of this approach is that internally the valve is in all ways identical to a standard ICO3S. The Low Power ICO3S has been developed for applications where power supply is at a premium, such as remote shale gas installations. Oen such installations are renewable, generator or battery powered, and as such, a power consumption of just 1.0W per valve makes the Low Power ICO3S the solenoid valve of choice, particularly where safety is paramount. » Full 316L Stainless Steel construction » IP66/X8 ingress protection » Saves 650kWh over 25 year life (compared with standard 4w valve) Low power ICO3 ICO4 solenoid Stainless steel
