| "I have a unit
down!" When
we hear this from one of our customers we know
what it can mean -- lost time, lost production,
and lost income. It doesn't matter if there
is just one small pump valve or a complete set of
valves from a four-stage compressor. It now
becomes our job to get the compressor, fluid
pump, or whatever back on line. The valve
department is responsible for rebuilding any and
all types of compressor valves,check valves,
packing glands, wipers, pump valves, fuel valves,
throttle valves, and air scavenging valves.
Our trained and experienced staff knows how
important it is to get the job completed as fast
as possible. More importantly, they know
how critical it is to do the job right.
Anything else is just a waste of time.
Naturally, everyone prefers to do repairs on a
scheduled PM basis, but when time and quality are
crucial, you can rely on Mark's Machine Co., Inc.
The MPV
Severe service,
harsh environment, and hazardous conditions: call
it what you will, we all are familiar with the
results. Chronic valve failure due to fluid
carryover or high concentrations of
particulate. Most field people have had
these problems before, usually when you are asked
to get more out of your unit than it was designed
or configured to do. Even when the unit is
properly trimmed, sometimes the current
conditions will push you outside the limits
concerning valve longevity. Although the
MPVs are designed for any application, they have
proven to be especially advantageous in areas
where foreign material and liquid are present.
Our product can be sized and adapted
to replace any OEM compressor valve on the
market.
One of the MPV's
major assets is its simplicity of design, which
requires no internal guides, pins, or wear bands,
making maintenance minimal. Non-metallic
disks are available in several materials and
adapt to temperature ranging from ambient to a
maximum of 650 degrees F. The physical
design allows more passage of gas with less
restriction in flow, thus reducing temperature
and the amount of horsepower required.
The MPV valve body
is manufactured out of 4130 annealed steel in
standard applications. In harsh
environments, material such as 410 or 316
stainless steel are used. The MPV valve has
been proven to have a much longer life expectancy
than it OEM counterparts. According to
recent studies by an independent analysis firm,
the MPV proved to have significant efficiency by
increasing production as much as 20%.
