Cost savings of 20-30% when manifolding instruments by eliminating several parts used in conventional methods of ‘piping up’.
Compact design requires minimum space for operation and installation.
Fewer leak points reduce leakage by having fewer parts to assemble.
Free-swivelling ball end stem (metal seat) ensures bubble-tight valve closure without seat galling.
Easy instrument removal via the AGCO Mount. Direct bolting to the manifold allows the instrument to be removed independently of the piping, facilitating repairs, service, and calibration.
Immediate installation with AGCO Mount as the manifold, steam block, bracket and all associated piping can be installed without the instrument at the time of plant construction.
Secure mounting provided by the AGCO Mount. Instrument piping stability is enhanced when directly supported by the pipestand through the manifold.
Packing is below stem threads, body-to-bonnet seal is below the threads eliminating process fluid corrosion.
Reduced chance of instrument damage. With the AGCO Mount, the instrument can be warehoused safely until final ‘loop’ checkout.
