- Valcor Catalog Includes Products For Marine And Naval Applications Maritime Reporter, Jun 1985 #102
—Literature Available Valcor Engineering Corporation, Springfield, N.J., has published a three-ring-binder Aerospace and Support System catalog that includes products that can be used in marine and naval applications.
Valcor Engineering has been a recognized leader in the design and manufacture of solenoid valves and critical flow control devices for aircraft, space and ground support systems since 1951. As pioneers in the development of solenoid valves used in fuel, hydraulic, cryogenic, pneumatic, and engine bleed air applications, they have amassed a library of over 5,000 valve designs that are utilized to solve a wide variety of system problems.
The catalog illustrates a broad view of Valcor's total Aerospace and Support System product line. It is divided into three sections—the first covering five basic valve application areas, the second for special purposes, and the third for brake valves, hydraulic accumulators, pressurization systems and other products.
The index is arranged by valve type and application to allow the basic valve series for a particular application to be readily found.
Each data sheet in the catalog represents a valve series, not just a single valve.
Custom-tailored modifications can be made to any valve series to suit particular needs. To assist in making inquiries when choosing a Valcor valve, Specification Check Sheets are provided at the back of the catalog. The data requested on this form helps provide a prompt solution to valving problems.
The introduction to the catalog states that it is intended solely as a guide to Valcor's technological design capability. The company's experienced engineering staff stands ready to resolve the most difficult application problems for customers.
The index in the catalog lists, along with the proper page number, the type, design, series number and description of fuel valves, hydraulic valves, engine bleed gas valves, cryogenic valves, pneumatic valves, special purpose valves, and K-products.
In addition to a photograph of the product and a cutaway drawing, each data sheet gives the description, valve type, application, features and operation and complete specifications and ratings for each number in the valve series.
