Correct Valve Specification
22 June 2017
Choosing the correct design and specification of valve for a process can save costs, reduce downtimes and minimise product loss or contamination.

From choosing the most effective seat material, to the correct mounting considerations of an actuator, Dixon can advise on such factors which can affect the wear and tear on a valve, create contamination problems and reduce life cycle.
Dixon’s range of high quality ball and butterfly valves can be actuated to customer specification with a range of stocked accessories that includes limit switches, solenoids and positioners. All actuators have been type-tested to 1,000,000 cycles.
The company supplies a full range of valves including diaphragm, mixproof, check and seat valves for many hygienic applications.
Full technical and sales support is available from their qualified technical sales team to ensure specification of the most suitable valve for your process.
Dixon offers same day and next day delivery on most standard actuated valves and custom fabrications subject to customer requirements.
With on-site actuation shop, 3D design, full technical and sales back-up, and BSI approved manufacturing and engineering departments, Dixon can design and produce individual bespoke valves and fabricated configurations to quickly and efficiently solve customer problems.
