Prevent Hydrogen Embrittlement with Herose ASME Stainless Relief Valves

By: Lance Looper
July 26th, 2023

As hydrogen continues to increase in popularity, a particular focus is finding valves and components that are tough enough to stand up to hydrogen. By affecting the electrochemical kinetics of certain metals, hydrogen can cause pitting and acceleration of the rate of inter-granular corrosion of high-strength steels, titanium alloys and aluminum alloys, which are the most vulnerable metals. Additionally, the interaction of hydrogen and stress can result in escalated stress-corrosion cracking susceptibility of steel, particularly in welded joints.

Cryogenic Tips: Ensuring Purity Down the Line

By: Lance Looper
June 27th, 2023

The extremely low temperatures that cryogenic systems operate under causes materials to become brittle and more susceptible to damage. Any foreign particles such as dirt, dust or even water vapor can damage the system by scratching or abrading components. That, in turn, leads to leaks that can release cryogenic fluids and cause life-threatening situations.

Preventing Pressure Drops & Cavitation in Positive Displacement Systems

By: Lance Looper
June 7th, 2023

Positive displacement systems can be found across a broad range of industries where accurate and precise fluid or gas transfer or pumping is imperative. In the simplest of terms, a positive displacement system displaces a specific quantity of liquid for every revolution or cycle that a pump completes. The flow rate is directly proportional to the speed and number of pump cycles over a given time.

High Pressure? No Problem with Generant Master Valves.

By: Lance Looper
May 16th, 2023

Gone are the days when it took a box wrench to open and close a fill plant master valve, when the end of the day meant a sore hand and wrist from forcibly operating valves. The newly designed Generant High Pressure Master Valve takes that struggle away. Designed for the tough requirements of cylinder fill plants, manifold and piping system applications, the MV series valves are the best in the industry.
