93rd SNAME

Annual Meeting — A Preview

Qualifying for this new Navy speci- fication required rigid testing in all critical performance areas. Ranging in size from 2% inches, these valves suit practically every shipboard re- quirement with such features as tight shutoff, wide temperature range, compactness and light weight for easy installation, corrosion re- sistance, and long life cycle. Avail- able as an option are a wide selec- tion of Jamesbury actuators for both automatic on/off and propor- tioning control.
