First Delivery for Field Trial

/in ,

VSI delivered the first Helical Bevel Gear-drive Valve, the HBGV, on Thursday, February 18, 2016. The valve will be installed as a pump back pressure regulator on an injection skid manufactured by Global Production Systems, GPS, in Shawnee, Ok.

GPS is a leader in injection systems design and manufacturing that include instrumentation and control systems permitting the multi-stage centrifugal pumps to operate most efficiently.

While this marked a significant milestone for VSI in the development of the HBGV, the near future looks bright as we actively seek other field trial applications for a 5,000 psi rated choked flow control valve with a flow coefficient up to 60.

We have two API 6A compliant valves and one Class 1500 RF flanged valve in production, ready soon to drop in and replace problem-plagued 2″ conventional control valves. The electronic actuation system is capable of 1% accuracy with 20:1 rangeability. HBGV SN160201 Assembled
