How time flies! Dervos had another challenging but fruitful year and is ready to step into its 13th year in the valve market. It’s time to celebrate its birthday.   As usual, we spared a day for this big event of Dervos. The day, we call it the happy day, is comprised of a quite lot of activities. We rented a big house where there are a hoard of miscellaneous recreational facilities, for instance, karaoke, private cinema, AR game and so on. What’s more, its spacious kitchen and dining area are also in favor of our first activity--group cooking!   The presumed ticklish part--you know, the participants are a group of urban white-collar workers who are fed by all the food delivery apps, what more do you expect from them?-- turned out to be more than amazing: Fish Filets in Hot Chili Oil, Meat Ball, Mushroom Stew and the impressive Sea Food Pot delivered by Eric, founder of Dervos.   Speaking of the founder, the other one Ken brought a delicate cake shaped into the number 13, beautiful and palatable. Plus the exquisite dessert, the meal of that noon really set a wonderful beginning of the happy day. Then we move to the recreational area. If you see someone screaming BACK OFF! STAY AWAY FROM ME! wielding gamepad, shooting monsters on screen, don’t worry, that’s just Jona playing AR games. She’s probably going to win the most dedicated player prize if there were any.   One more game I’d like to note is ring toss. The ring needs to circle the bottle and win you the gift coupon beneath it. I know it’s kinda old-stuff, but when you attend another game to win extra chances for ring toss if you don’t gain anything at first round, it would be more fun. The gamer needs to spin 5 circles and flip a bottle cap about 2 meters away at once, with one eye covered all the time. It was crazy dizzy, difficult and fun, cause you could never hit it accurately after 5 circles as you thought the cap was there but it was actually not. In the evening, after a string of group games like Guess the song name and Charade, the climax of the day came as the projection screen started playing a surprising video for West, also the game host, whose journey with Dervos has rang the 10-year bell and hasn’t anticipated for this part. After the video, Eric and Ken, on behalf of the big family, awarded him a secret anniversary gift.   Now, let’s call it a day, or it would be better to be ‘let call it 13 years’.   If Dervos were a 13-year-old boy, it is when the boy explores the world curiously and energetically. It is like a rising sun from the skyline, we’ll see his sun ray, glory and feel his warmth. Dervosers are striving for this day.

We often regard 2 inch as the dividing line to decide forging or casting of valves. Unlike other valves, the manufacturing method of ball valve is not subject to valve size. Even for big size ball valves, we will use forging way sometimes. Compared to cast steel ball valves, forged steel ball valves can bear more strength and more serviceable. The quality of original material forging is of better quality with less defectiveness. For high pressure working condition, we'd better choose forged steel ball valves. Cast ball valves come with less weight and lower cost than forged one. Xiamen Dervos is an API Certified check valve manufacturing and trading company that specializes in the production of various kinds of valve. In addition to ball valve, we also produce other industrial pipeline valves, such as gate valves, globe valves, plug valves and butterfly valve.

As a component in the pipeline, valves control the connection and cut-off of the fluid. Valve is like a brake pad on the car, one broke, it may lead to unexpected consequences.  Therefore, the valve's performance and service life directly affect the operation of the system. If the valve is damaged, the system must be shut down for maintenance, the losses which brings immensely outweigh the cost of such a few valves. The quality and life of the valve are so important. The bellows sealed globe valve is particularly outstanding in both aspects. Its double seal guarantees zero leakage but also reaches zero leakage in the helium mass spectrometry test. Very safe and reliable. The bellows can be cycled more than 10,000 times without damage, greatly exceeding the service life of an ordinary globe valve packing seal. In addition, the bellows sealed valve can prevent external dust from entering the valve body to ensure the cleanliness of the medium. In conditions such as high-purity silicon powder, pure oxygen, food, vacuum and other working conditions, the bellows globe valves still have a very outstanding performance. In the process of switching, common globe valves will see dynamic friction between packing and stem, and the packing will be worn and fail.  When globe valves are in high and low-temperature occasions, their packing will expand or contract, packing changes, resulting in packing seal failure; As for low-temperature conditions, the packing is easy to freeze,  the packing is easy to be scratched by ice in the witching process. In short, the advantages of the bellows globe valve compared with the ordinary globe valve can be summarized as follows. 1. The bellows globe valve can meet the request of zero external leakage in helium mass spectrometry. 2. The service life of the bellows sealed globe valve is much higher than that of the common globe valve, whose packing is susceptible and replacement frequency is higher. 3. The bellows sealed globe valve has a metal barrier at the stem seal, which can be used in working conditions where absolute isolation is required inside and outside the valve. 4. The bellows of the bellows sealed globe valve can expand and contract, which is not affected by thermal expansion and contraction, and it has very obvious advantages in the occasion of large temperature differences. 5. The bellows valve has double sealing. the bellows instinct, the packing is completely isolated from the medium, which protects the packing well and greatly extends the service life.

Sometimes it is hard to choose between using a knife gate valve or a butterfly valve for certain applications. Both have their merits and both should be picked according to the media and how it will be used. Both are available in manual operation (hand wheel, gear box or lever) as well as withpneumatic or electric actuators Ask these questions before making the choice: l Is the media abrasive? l Will there be large suspended solids? l Is there likely to be solid material present in the line when closing? If the answer to any of the above question is yes, a knife gate valve is what you’re supposed to have. Typical applications for knife gate valves include; - Sewerage & Effluent - Vacuum Trucks - Fluid Transfer Trucks - Slurry - Grain Silos Xiamen Dervos is an API Certified check valve manufacturing and trading company that specializes in the production of various kinds of valve. In addition toKnife gate valve, we also produce other industrial pipeline valves, such as ball valves, globe valves, plug valves and butterfly valve.

WAFER check valve is a general one-way valve for fluid.Lightweight, small-sized, WAFER check valve iseasy to install between the flange. The interior of the valve consists of two semi-circular taut springs and plates that fixed to the valve body with a pin. Moving fluid make the spring deform and get through the valve. The valve closes when the spring lose fluid pressure. The spring deforms quickly, which keeps the pipeline from the damage of water hammer. Keep these in mind when install WAFER check valve 1. First, the priority among priorities, make sure the opening direction is in line with the the flow direction when you put your WAFER check valve in place. 2. Put them in vertical pipelines and, for horizontal pipelines, install check valves vertically. 3. Use a expanding tube between the WAFER check valve and the butterfly valve. Don’t connect them to other valves directly. 4. Keep pipe joints and blockagesaway from the operating radius of the valve plate. 5. Do not install a reducer in front of or perhaps behind the WAFER check valve. 6. When the WAFER check valve have to be installed near a elbow pipe, leave a large enough space. 7. If WAFER check valve is placed at the outlet of pump , allow space at least six times the diameter of the valve to ensure that the butterfly plate can be pushed by fluid.

The API Code was developed in 1924 to provide technical specifications to guide the production of products related to the petroleum industry. Due to the advanced, universal and safe nature of the API Code developed by the API Organization and the expanding influence of the US oil industry in the world, the API Code has been widely adopted by countries around the world. As a result, the API Organization, originally meant to be an academic organization for the US petroleum industry, has now evolved into an authoritative academic organization for the petroleum industry that crosses national boundaries.
