trim (including Monel). The valves feature sil-braze ends, Navy flanges, detenting handles and blow-out proof stems.

Manufactured to U.S. Coast

Guard & Navy specifications, the

PBM line of ball valves has been shock and vibration tested. The valves are available in %- through 4-inch sizes; pressures to 700 psig; and at temperatures to 450°F.

SAAB

In the last year, Saab-Scania

Combitech purchased the opera- tions of Salwico Inc. (Hoboken, NJ).

Saab is providing the same opera- tions and services formerly offered by Salwico in a newly formed divi- sion—Saab Tank Control.

In addition to marketing Saab's microwave level gauging equipment, the new division will also market and service Gunclean fixed tank washing equipment; Ian-Conrad

Bergan high level alarms and tank temperature gauging; and other ma- rine products.

Saab Marine Electronics has de- veloped a new version of its radar- based level-gauging system for tankers. The Saab TankRadar

Model M, incorporates all the reli- able components of the original

SUM-21, but with added capabili- ties to supply temperature and inert gas pressure measurements. The system uses the same three-pair ca- ble for both level, temperature and pressure transmission. Such fea- tures as color graphic CRTs, elec- tronic remote control of pumps and valves, wireless portable deck read- outs and volumetric data can also be incorporated in the system.

Tank Control division products as well as the TankRadar system,

SIMS

Sims Pump Valve Company, Ho- boken, NJ developed and manufac- tures Simsite® impellers, casing rings, and other components for ma- rine and stationary centrifugal pumps. Sims was established in 1919 with the invention of the Sims pump valve for use in reciprocating pumps.

Recognizing that conventional metal impellers became porous when used in service such as salt water, Sims in 1955 introduced the casing ring made of Simsite. The innovative use of this composite ma- terial, a combination of reinforced resin and graphite, met with great success. It outlasted by far the life expectancy of bronze. Six years later the Simsite impeller joined the al- ready proven casing ring.

Of Simsite's many advantages over metal, one is its resistance to corrosion in salt water and various chemical applications. As a replace- ment for worn original equipment and as a specification for new, the material's great strength and light weight make handling easy, and wear on pump parts is reduced greatly by the natural lubricating action of its graphite content.

New Conceptual Designs for

Product Oil Tankers

Samsung has developed new concepts of the most economical tankers for shipowners to carry and handle product & crude oil.

Our new designs include large, Panamax, handy and small-sized product/crude oil tankers.

Samsung's Koje Shipyard is an ideal yard to build product oil tankers at the most competitive prices.

Over the past five years, we delivered two 19,900dwt product/crude oil tankers and four 34,000dwt product oil/chemical tankers for leading world shipowners.

Currently, we are building two27,200dwt and two 77,800dwt product oil tankers for Helmer Staubo, a 95,000dwt product/crude oil tanker for Caltex(Australia) and three 105,000dwt product/crude oil tankers for

Nordstrom & Thulin.

If you plan new product oil tankers, come to Sam- sung, the very yard that knows what product oil tankers should be.
