Quality, technology and reliability in service are mandatory aspects which,

worldwide, a good valve has to guarantee and all our efforts during all these past
years of manufacturing activity have always been implemented to the main goal
of reaching and maintaining the highest quality level which Vimec Trade Mark
represents and will always represent in future for all our
Customers.

The continuous research we develop to the purpose of

better and better meeting with Customers’ requirements and expecta-
tions it taking Vimec, much to our satisfaction, to present this new
line of products, as a completion of our Double Block & Bleed ball
valves range.

Such a new valve is now available in a size range which

goes from 1/2” to 36”, in all pressure class ratings
from 150 Lbs to 2.500 Lbs.

These new valves are regularly manufactured in

Side Entry, Top Entry and Compact design and
are supplied with wrench or gear box operator, as
well as, on specific application, in motorized
execution by means of electric, pneumatic and/or
gas over oil actuators.

The standard production includes ASTM materials like

A105N, F60 and LF6, A350 LF2 for low temperature, A182
F316(L), Duplex F51, Super Duplex F44, F53, F55 as well as a
wide range of special materials like Hastelloy, Inconel 625 or
825, Monel K and Titanium Class 2.

One of the most important aspects connected to VIMEC production

range is the one related to high pressure service valves.

On the other end, present market requests, in line with technical

evolution of End Users production processes, have originated a
mandatory need to apply to this type of Double Block & Bleed
valves, suitable to fully meet with the
very high quality and construction
requirements necessary for heavy duty
and critical services.

Such a kind of valves are of course

manufactured in full compliance with most
important product specifications adopted in
chemical and petrochemical plants, like API 6D, ANSI, ASME,
British Standard etc.

The valves are available in a size range which goes

from 1/2" to 24", in pressure class ratings from 150
Lbs to API 10.000.

These new valves are regularly manufactured in

Side Entry or Top Entry design and are supplied
with wrench or gear box operator as well as, on
specific application, in motorized execution by
means of electric, pneumatic and/or gas over oil
actuators.

The standard production includes ASTM materials like

A105N, F60 and LF6, A350 LF2 for low temperature, A182
F316(L), Duplex F51, Super Duplex F44, F53, F55 as well as a
wide range of special materials like Hastelloy, Inconel 625 or 825,
Monel K and Titanium Class 2.

To-day’s VIMEC’s Cryogenic Valves,

available in all ANSI pressure classes,
are the result of a very long machining,
assembling and test experience which we
have made and improved during our last 30
years of manufacturing activity.

First of all, a particular care is paid to machining A

degree of all valve components where inside

surfaces are in touch with flow so to guarantee
the best contact between metal and non metal

our working centers, CNC lathes and
