Valcor provides a wide range of flow control devices and can customize a solution to challenging flow control processes. Our products include:

Process Solenoid Valves

Valcor’s IEEE 323, 344 & 382 qualified 2-way, 3-way and 4-way process solenoid valves are designed to ASME Sec III standards and handle a variety of process gas and liquids.

Air Pilot Solenoid Valves

Valcor’s family of IEEE 323, 344 & 382 qualified air-pilot valves come in a range of flow capacities and are used to actuate control valves in nuclear power plants.

Instrument Isolation Valves

Valcor’s large range of air operated and manually operated instrumentation isolation valves are designed to ASME Sec III standards and are used in safety related applications.

Pressure & Flow Regulators

Valcor’s ASME Section III code regulators are rated up to 2500 LB Class for fluids and gases. These regulators are either single or multi stages to meet process demands.

Cavitating Venturis, Letdown Orifices, Eductors

Valcor’s ASME Section III and passive flow control and diffuser/silencer meet the specific customer requirements for primary and secondary process systems within the NPP.

Plug Resistant Orifices (for the AP1000 Rx Design)

Valcor’s ASME Section III plug resistant orifices meet the specific process conditions in the NPP. These are a passive alternative to steam traps in steam, condensate and drain lines.

ASME Code Rack Systems

Valcor designs SOV and instrument rack systems for emergency diesel generators and skid-mounted process packages requiring an extensive degree of installed instrumentation components.

Check & Excess Flow Check Valves

Valcor custom designs and manufactures ASME Section III check and excess flow check valves to specific customer requirements.
