Proportional valves are considered both flow and directional valves, to meter flow and control the direction in which flow is metered. When specifying a proportional valve for fluid power control, you need a driver to control the ramp rate and open the valve. Combining these two devices together allows you to have control flow precisely,…
High-pressure solenoid pump offers fluid control for rigorous needs
Spartan Scientific releases its SSDP, a miniature fixed-displacement solenoid pump. Spartan’s expert team has designed the component from the ground up to work within the rigorous environments of scientific and medical applications among others that require finite fluid control. The Spartan SSDP is highly accurate and reliable with few moving parts, making it an ideal…
Stepper technology helps extinguish fires quicker
When a fire emergency occurs, first responders know all too well that every moment is critical. When fire crews first arrive they assess their situation. Depending on the type of fire, they’ll begin to tediously mix a foam solution. A nationally known OEM of firefighting equipment and transportation had been using an older foam suppressant design…
APVS air-piloted valves control caustic media safely
Spartan Scientific announces that its line of air-piloted valves now includes their APVS Media Separated Valve Series. This new series is comprised of four different styles of APVS valves and provides many versatile options for handling caustic media, all while allowing safe operation in volatile areas. The series includes inert gas/spring-operated valves to control high-purity,…
2-way brass valve offers high flow and precise control in compact size
Spartan Scientific recently introduced its high-flow Series 3516, a two-way, internal-pilot operated solenoid valve. The compact-size and low-lead brass body is compatible with transferring inert gases, water and compatible fluids at higher volumes and pressures than other valves in its class. Its 35-gpm flow rate can be used for a wide range of applications including…
Diaphragm pump provides precise fluid control for medical, scientific industries
Spartan Scientific, Youngstown, Ohio, recently announced the release of its Series SSDP 15, an electro-fluidic solenoid dosing diaphragm pump. The environmentally resistant, fully encapsulated solenoid design offers high-precision, fixed volume and finite control of fluids, making it ideal for controlling liquids in medical, analytical and scientific applications, such as in vitro diagnostics, dialysis and biotechnology.…
New Series of Low Cost Composite Plastic Valves
Spartan Scientific has announced the debut of a new series of composite plastic solenoid valves that are more cost-effective and considerably lighter than their metal versions. The new Spartan Scientific 6200 Series valves include stainless steel port reinforcing rings for durability, but composite plastic bodies that won’t rust or oxidize like metal does. This provides…
